  1. something is wrong with either your MM pup, the wiring into it or the blend pot.
  2. [quote name='ash' timestamp='1345237495' post='1775533'] Ha! Ha! Yes that's right although you have to keep your JV Jazz unless you want to swap for this . [/quote] sell that stuff, then, Leo wouldn't have approved. "Badass,Nordstrand NJ4,Audere JZ3,Hipshot Dtuner"
  3. [quote name='lee650' timestamp='1345072806' post='1773363'] Yeah mate, your right, I had an opportunity to , buy a JV P bass from a little shop in Sheffield many years ago, for absolutely nothing. And I foolishly passed, and I did think of putting a jazz pickup in and defretting it, I also enquired once about getting an ebony fretless board to be fitted to my jazz once, when I had a much larger stable of basses (pre kids) and it was a very expensive mod . Anyway ash, I'm probably going to be there for a meal as my brother in law is a local drummer, I'll pm you if my fortunes change, this is a gorgeous bass, whoever gets it will be a very happy bunny [/quote] just sell all that other junk in your sig to get it!
  4. are the coils wired in series or parallel? thats a shame, maybe if you used the J retro to boost just the bridge pup....
  5. ah some of the clovers look nice
  6. Dear Warwick, I very much enjoyed your virtual tour. However you seemed to have too many basses sitting around your showroom unplayed. They look sad and are meant to be played. Just think how much happier that room would be if you gave one of them to me? thank you Luke
  7. [quote name='Spike Vincent' timestamp='1345229497' post='1775392'] Now you've complicated it all by adding the Doppler effect. [/quote] affected by the room size?
  8. [quote name='molan' timestamp='1345228118' post='1775360'] And still looking just as lovely [/quote] +1
  9. theres a trend here then. these amps are getting enough air?
  10. [quote name='Darkstrike' timestamp='1345218770' post='1775181'] Arrived today, and quickly whipped it in, truly stellar, much better than the Bartolini pre I had installed, the options and tones are ridiculous. Shame I can't play with it more now, as I injured my thumb at work. [/quote] thats a shame. Wee question, I was looking at the East and Bart pre's recently- which bart pre was it, and what didn't you like about it?
  11. [quote name='MoJoKe' timestamp='1345225076' post='1775285'] Or whether they are a mile away or clamped to each side of your head like headphones!! *runs faster.....* [/quote] Or if they are valve watts or solid state watts..... *runs past usain....*
  12. [quote name='JPJ' timestamp='1345224912' post='1775281'] Cheers John, sounds like its time for a mini-bash round your place I know what you mean. I've been trolling around the interweb trying to find a decent power amp using this lightweight class D malarky that can put about 900w in 8 ohms 1500w in 4 ohms. Can't believe that there isn't a dedicated mono musical instrument power amp available like this. If Orange can do a 1000w Terrorbass that is basically their front end in front of a B&O power amp module, surely somebody somewhere will have thought of using a similar amp module to produce a decent mono power amp? [/quote] I guess most power amps aren't designed to be moved much, unlike musician's amp which have to be cleared on and off stage.
  13. In my opinion. the best bridge on a P bass is a BBOT one. I would avoid anything "hi-mass"
  14. [quote name='warwickhunt' timestamp='1345223165' post='1775255'] Fabulous! I'm sitting noodling through it at the minute (coupled with my pair of DB12's and a 1200w power amp it is 'overkill' for a practice rig but... what the hell ) and it is a great bit of kit but then again so is the TF and unless I can find a very lightweight power amp (ideally 1U), the TF will remain my main amp! [/quote] very lightweight... but you don't like class D right? So you want a big transformer in a little box. Might look like this....
  15. [quote name='warwickhunt' timestamp='1345222389' post='1775246'] Just to give you some options Kev... I have a Warwick Hellborg 1U rackmount preamp that you can borrow. I know it isn't 'exactly' what you want but it might be worth experimenting (I have a power amp to go with it but it isn't one of the uber-light ones). [/quote] how is the Hellborg?
  16. No one mentioned the effect the type/size of speakers used will have yet? *runs for cover*
  17. [quote name='Rick's Fine '52' timestamp='1345202861' post='1774891'] Don't get me started!! Luke, I need your help! [/quote] Can't help with the status but Swap you my warwick for your Jvs
  18. [quote name='rushers' timestamp='1345193891' post='1774719'] I don't know if it's just me and my sick mind, but I always thought that the Corvettes body contour (If that's a phrase?) looks like some kind of sexual object and when I was looking for a new bass a while back most of my mates seemed to agree.....And that's the story of why I didn't get a Warwick. [/quote] they make other basses other than the corvette you know?
  19. [quote name='Torben Hedstrøm' timestamp='1345190216' post='1774665'] Thanks ... It really is, I only wonder if the GAS ever stops. [/quote] I had a 3 bass rule and kept buying and selling. When I got to a two bass rule I found the risk of moving one of mine on and regretting it was enough to stop me! The dolphin looks an odd one to move on!
  20. [quote name='warwickhunt' timestamp='1345192780' post='1774701'] Better than Mr. Hunt... [/quote] no, you're Warwickhunt - and like a Brazilian footballer you only have one name. It's a bit like Pele isn't Mr Pele- he's just Pele. If we did shorten it it would be to "the 'hunt" Mind you Bolinowskywickhunt would also be suitable now I think?
  21. [quote name='Warwick_Official' timestamp='1345159137' post='1774560'] Indeed! My name is Garey - and its a pleasure to be a part of BC! Thanks! [/quote] I dunno, Mr Warwick would be a good name too!
  22. pick up only though
  23. it looks lovely! Pretty rate these Bravewoods, the only one I know for sale is the P bass in Rick's Fine 59's sig.
