First time I've seen one of these Very nice indeed

There's a channel volume on the RH450 which kinda helps with this although I've never really had THAT much of an issue with it

[quote name='flyfisher' timestamp='1340009455' post='1697396'] You think Basschat is sad? You should try subscribing to a vintage tractor forum as well. (er, did I say that out loud? ) [/quote] Tractors are built "vintage", I don't care how modern it is, just because of the word "tractor" it becomes vintage

Looks lovely, doesn't the fretboard need some kind of coat if it's maple though?

Yeah that sucked... Whoever made this promo vid rocks though... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgexMWZQUjs&feature=player_embedded

The violin bass, most ibbys

[quote name='Cosmo Valdemar' timestamp='1339930256' post='1696322'] ACGs... I would happily have a go on one though if the opportunity arose though. The looks just do nothing for me, and I imagine the sound to be very modern, clinical and sterile - probably totally incorrect an assumption. [/quote] If you're ever in the area then drop me a line (or come to the EABB) you're more than welcome to give mine a go (although it's in Drop C tuning ) if you decide it sounds clinical and sterile you're probably insane

For brightness generally, DAddario ProSteels is my current squeeze (for standard tuning)

[quote name='ras52' timestamp='1340008746' post='1697387'] Thanks guys. I have a WD "passport" USB-powered external HD lying around so I'll start using that and see how it goes. If that's not up to it, I imagine that an internal HD would be faster as well as cheaper than an external one...? Let the experiments begin! [/quote] Definitely

[quote name='Walker' timestamp='1340005472' post='1697341'] My wife was humming the bass line to 'stir it up' yesterday after I was furiously practicing it for a gig on Saturday! [/quote] Please tell me she was whisking at the time

[quote name='waynepunkdude' timestamp='1340005052' post='1697334'] Alright, no need to start a war about it. [/quote]

I honestly thought it was going to be a really cleverly laid out pedalboard to organise your pedals

If it's in a desktop the cheaper option is to get an internal drive rather than external. Or are you out of bays?

[quote name='gapiro' timestamp='1339966239' post='1697053'] @charic, whats the best wood for keyboards...... [/quote] That depends on the style of music you're playing [quote name='EskimoBassist' timestamp='1339963782' post='1696983']Most keytar players that I've seen just seem to use them as MIDI controllers and instead get their actual synth sounds from an external unit, I don't know if that's indicative of the sound quality of the lower priced keytars, but it does seem that many offer quite limited parameter control of patches. [/quote] If the Keytar doesn't have to have patches it can be MUCH lighter! If you're just looking at a keytar to connect to a module or keyboard then this should do nicely : [url="http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00409SO9Q/ref=asc_df_B00409SO9Q8375620?smid=A2913KVEAD7FH6&tag=hydra0b-21&linkCode=asn&creative=22218&creativeASIN=B00409SO9Q&hvpos=1o1&hvexid=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=13895169211023929076&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt="]http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00409SO9Q/ref=asc_df_B00409SO9Q8375620?smid=A2913KVEAD7FH6&tag=hydra0b-21&linkCode=asn&creative=22218&creativeASIN=B00409SO9Q&hvpos=1o1&hvexid=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=13895169211023929076&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=[/url] I couldn't find a version without the game quickly However it does have a midi out, small ribbon control, fairly good build quality and is bloody light

That bass looks awesome

Done

I'm going to be heading down to start setting up around 09:30 so anytime after then should be fine We have a main room A "test" room (for those that want to A/B rigs) The test room will also offer the opportunity to play you band through a PA to show them off/get constructive criticism They may also be a BBQ available on the day, weather permitting!

It won't be cheap... If you think basses are expensive then wait until you get into the keyboard world!

If it does relic then it Capri Orange with the worn bits going to shoreline gold could look awesome. Subscribed!

Chloroseptic spray! It's mad stuff, you can pick it up at Tesco It's worked for mates with tonsillitus (sp?)

[quote name='TomKent' timestamp='1339776926' post='1694251'] As far as I'm aware, yes. [/quote] The plot thickens!
