  7. I use JustHost for hosting our site and have been looking at the standard templates they promote from Weebly and Wordpress. They have a wide variety of templates that cover sales, downloads, music etc which should fit your requirements. I have selected a new base line template I want to use and will be updating our site in the next few weeks as ours is currently a bit....well......meh!

  9. I couldn't find the original site either! Heres a link to another "Nordstrand" site.. [url="http://ristolainstruments.com/nordstrand/faq-support/"]http://ristolainstruments.com/nordstrand/faq-support/[/url] Scroll down to the Preamp Schematics and pick "Kitchen Sink 3b Installation"
  10. For Sale - Nordstrand 3B-5A 3 band on board preamp. Controls consist of 5 knobs and 2 switches (switches can be removed from system) - treble, mid (pull to change frequency), bass, blend, vol (pull passive). I had the pre amp in my W&T and had the 2 switches wired to the pickups for are for series / parallel. If you don't have holes for the switches you can remove them and wire the pickups direct to the preamp. There are wiring details on the Nordstrand site. [color=#58596B][font=Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif][size=3][size=4][color=#000000]Overall gain is +/- 10db by a trim pot on the circuit board[/color][/size][/size][/font][/color] [color=#58596B][font=Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif][size=3][size=4][color=#000000]Bass +/- 12db @ 50hz[/color][/size][/size][/font][/color] [color=#58596B][font=Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif][size=3][size=4][color=#000000]Treble +/- 12db @ 4khz[/color][/size][/size][/font][/color] [color=#58596B][font=Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif][size=3][size=4][color=#000000]Midrange +/- 12db@1khz[/color][/size][/size][/font][/color] [color=#58596B][font=Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif][size=3][size=4][color=#000000]9 volt system[/color][/size][/size][/font][/color] [size=4]New[/size], one of these would cost £205 and I am looking for £110.00 plus shipping. Heres a few pics of the preamp in and out of the bass.
  11. For sale - A matching set of Nordstrand NJ5FS 5 string jazz bass pickups in Fender size, 100mm neck, 105mm bridge. Excellent condition. I have had them in my Jazz FMT which I have now returned to the normal SCN pickups as I am selling it. These are hum cancelling split coils and would cost £210 new. I am looking for £100 plus shipping.
  12. Withdrawn from sale - a matchi[size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]ng set of 5 string Kent Armstrong K5 pickups. These have a lovely warm and rounded tone to them. They contain full-length bar pole-pieces allowing a wide variety of string spacing. The widely spaced coils sample a fairly long section of the string, giving a high-tech but not twangy bass sound. The 4 conductor wiring allows coil splitting, series/parallel, phase inversion etc.[/font][/size] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]Dimensions are 40mm wide 110mm long and 18mm deep.

  13. Nice job! I've just fitted a set into my W&T along with a Pope pre and 3 way mini switches that allow each pickup to be individually series / single coil / parallel ........holy mother of tone monsters! With the EQ flat or passive the pickups have changed the sound from the previous Kent Armstrongs warm and rounded to a clear hi-fi and you can "hear all my [s]mistakes [/s]...er....... nuances". Me likey
  14. All you would get from the sub is low end....possibly 150htz and below and I think would just sound deep and mushy.
  15. Just booked my weekend ticket and looking forward to all the many varied shapes, sizes, techniques, forms, styles and models of bass related goodness!
  16. A bass like this is worth the price of a cheap flight to pick it up
  17. Actually.....me as well please! I need to get myself learning not yearning
  18. Personally I like going with seperates for speakers and amps because if one item fails you have a fighting chance of beg / steal / borrowing a replacement. You can always upgrade each bit seperately if you want. Your 15" tops should be able to handle some bass & kick to support your backline OK. (If you're a loud band I would probably go for a seperate sub as well.) You could get 1 power amp and run the tops from 1 channel and the monitors from the other. The monitors would just need a cable running from an Aux line out from the desk to the back of the amp. Your manual will show you how to do it. As for bargains....funny you should ask.....[url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/231424-2-x-yamaha-p5000s-power-amps-for-sale/page__fromsearch__1"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/231424-2-x-yamaha-p5000s-power-amps-for-sale/page__fromsearch__1[/url]
  19. I am assuming you have 2 x Hydrive 410 (1000 Watt @ 4 ohm) In bridged mono mode the QSC only uses Chan 1 and provides 1600 watts @ 4 ohms & 1000 watts @8 ohms. You could run a bridged speakon cable from Chan 1 of the amp to your first cab and then a standard speakon from Cab 1 to Cab 2 (daisy chained). This would give you the full 1600 watts at 4 ohms. The sound would be mahoosive! Hope that helps
  20. I'm now "Happy" on a Saturday morning....love it
  21. Just as it says in the topic, I have 2 rack cases for sale. Each of them is in good condition with all latches and handles working. Postage cost from Aberdeen would depend on where you live. I may be able to deliver locally. 4 Unit case made by CP Cases - [s]£40 [/s][color=#ff0000][b]£35[/b][/color] 4 Unit case (extra deep - great for cable storage) made by Freestyle - [s]£40 [/s][color=#ff0000][b]£35[/b][/color] ....or both for [s]£70 [/s][color=#ff0000][b]£60[/b][/color]
