  2. ..........Anyone had any experiences with these?
  3. Nice one. Get some pics up
  4. Bought my Aerodyne Jazz from Stu in the days of BassWorld. The bass was as described.... Minty, nicely set up and arrived promptly and well packaged. Top Geezer to deal with. Cheers Stu

  10. [quote name='spike' post='119018' date='Jan 12 2008, 10:06 AM']You need to reverse the wiring on the neck pickup, I had the same problem when I first fitted Wizards to my Aerodyne.[/quote] Cheers Spike. Nice one!!
  11. We are talking £'s here aint we
  12. [quote name='paul h' post='116883' date='Jan 9 2008, 11:36 AM']That doesn't sound right! Maybe it is wired wrong or the D+G part of the split P is just in the wrong way around. p.[/quote] Think i will have to get it looked at. It has always been like that. The guy at my local guitar shop had a look when he wired the new pups in said it all looked OK.
  13. [quote name='paul h' post='116858' date='Jan 9 2008, 10:52 AM']I replaced the stock ceramic J pickup with an alnico NOS US one in my Aero...now I get a great sound from both. My Aerodyne is everything up full. So is the VMJ Squier. The BB614 is normally everything up full, but occasionally i solo the P pickup. I have a SX P copy on the way...no difficult decision there then! I never use a bridge pick up solo'd but they are good to have in the blend to add a bit of growl. I actually spend a bit of time adjusting pickup heights on my basses so I get the tone I like with everything up full. The BB614 definitely has the bridge pick up slightly higher. p.[/quote] Thats interesting, If i put both pickups on full the volume of the D and G strings drops a lot. It's like with both on full they phase each other out. Is the wiring wrong??
  14. Im weird and only use the front pickup on my Aerodyne. The bass is loaded with a Wizard Thumper and an '84, dont get me wrong the '84 is fantastically strong but the thumper is astounding. Maybe I should be thinking about getting a P bass!!!!!
  15. [quote name='bass_ferret' post='116474' date='Jan 8 2008, 07:39 PM']There are a couple of speaker gurus on here that have explained it all in the previous threads - maybe someone should write up a wiki on it so they dont have to repeat it. I think it is to do with the human ear not being very sensitive to low frequencies and it is actually the harmonics that we hear when listening to low bass - so you dont need a cab that goes down to 42Hz (the fundamental frequency of a bottom E). Plus all the frequency response quoted by most cab makers is pants. From my own experience I got more low end from 2 Peavey 2x10's than I did from a 2x10/1x15. Plus mixing different sized speakers has unwanted sonic side effects - I think it is called comb filtering where the phase outputs from the different sized drivers interact to reinforce or cancel sound on a horizontal plane. This will manifest if you walk around when you are playing and hear different volume depending on where you stand in relation to your rig. This might all be bollocks mind. Try doing a search on comb filter.[/quote] Cheers, interesting! Thanks for the input everyone
  16. Just got rid of a 76, wondering if I should of. The top end was very prominent and the bottom end nice and round.
  17. I have the 1001 version and love it. Quite a 'modern' tone, cuts through well and small amounts of EQ tweaking give big rewards. From what I can tell there are a lot of GK users here.
  18. Want to elaborate?
  19. I do really really like the look of the Berg 6x10. Im just thinking 12's or 15's are going to give me more low end.
  20. Hi All Am changing my cabs soon. Will either go for a Trace 2x15 and a 2x10 or 2 of the Aguilar 2x12's. If anyone has had experience with any of the above, any comments/advice will be appreciated. Cheers Raggy
  21. [quote name='stingrayfan' post='112869' date='Jan 3 2008, 01:23 PM']Depends what you're playing and whether it feels comfortable to you. Fivers to me feel too big and the strings always seem floppier which is no good for the sort of punk and indie covers I gig. Plus, I'm so used to 4s, that it seems odd to try and do something new. I think they're good for soul and heavy metal but they feel a bit strange playing the Clash and Green Day on![/quote] +1 to that
  22. Jammed with Marvin Gaye's sax player and the drummer form The Pretenders in Portugal once. This year we supported Foxton and Buckler's Jam and gigged with Smeg from King Kurt
