  1. I'd like one but I'm left handed, oh well.
  2. I bought this to use while I renovated my 8x10. It’s done about 6 gigs and is in excellent condition although it does have a couple of scrapes. They're hard to see though. I’ve lined the inside of the cabinet with acoustic foam which has greatly improved the sound of the cab, I’ve added wheels and feet so that it can be wheeled in and then sat on its side and it’s got a Roqsolid cover. I’d rather it was used rather than just sit in my studio unloved. Here’s the spec from Ashdown, [url="http://ashdownmusic.com/products/1/Bass-Amplification/18/Legacy/38/MAG-410T-SLIM/"]http://ashdownmusic.com/products/1/Bass-Amplification/18/Legacy/38/MAG-410T-SLIM/[/url] The cab cost me 229 Euros from Thomann which was about, £190 at the time plus about £50 for the cover. I’m after £125 collected but as I still have the original box, I’m sure I can box it up if you want to send a courier to collect from TN37 7ER. Thanks for looking.
  3. [size=5]I bought this as a spare in case the original one broke. It never did, so I’m selling this one. Totally unused and still in original packaging, I’ve never taken it out of the box.[/size] [size=5]We used the Ryger FL-P1 to control our Equinox mega bars and a fine job it did too. When we found someone who wanted to control our lights, Terry the flasher, we moved on to a more complicated system so the original FL-P1, and this one have been made redundant.[/size] [size=5]Here’s what Ryger say about it,[/size] [size=5][url="http://www.rygeruk.co.uk/html/fl-p1.html"]http://www.rygeruk.c...html/fl-p1.html[/url][/size] [size=5]You can even use the buttons with your feet. A great and very easy way to get into stage lighting.[/size] [size=5]New this costs £179, I’m after £130 posted. Any question please ask.[/size] [size=5]I haven't bothered with photos as the pictures on the Ryger site, link above, show exactly what it looks like but if you'd like photos let me know and I'll post some.[/size]
  4. Wow! That was easy. Great and smooth transaction and they pickups are great. Thanks.
  5. I've playing bass for getting on for 50 years and over that time I've had handles break or fall off everything. Hard bass cases, flight cases, amps, speaker cabinets, lead cases in fact everything. It's part of gigging and I've come to expect it, it's not a case of if, it's a case of when. No manufacturer has ever offered me a new handle because the old one broke but I read that Alex has offered to replace broken handles FOC. I call that supreme after sales service above and beyond the call of duty and still people have got it in for Alex. I just don't get it!
  6. When I were a lad, many years ago, I had an old valve, bakelite radio. Needing a speaker, I took the speaker out of the radio and stuck it in a cabinet. How disappointed was I when it didn't work. It turned out to be one of them thar speakers, but I had never heard of them at the time.
  7. Interestingly, I asked myself this very same question at last night's gig. After strolling about a bit, I also found it to be about 6 - 8 feet. My cab ALWAYS goes at the back of the stage and depending on the size of the stage, this is either behind or in line with the drummer. It will never be in front of the drums. Same with the guitar amp.
  8. Streamliner 900. One for sale on here at the moment.
  9. Once you plug into the input the power is switched on and will stay on until you unplug it again. The input socket is also the on / off switch. The bypass switch only bypasses the signal, not the power.
  10. Another thing which might help is to play without your eyes glued to the fret board which is again to learn the bass part so that you don't have to think about it. It also helps to sing into the mic easier. Good foldback helps a lot too.
  11. Excellent!
  12. I use this, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SOUDAL-PRO-45P-POLYURETHANE-PU-WATER-RESISTANT-WOOD-GLUE-ADHESIVE-750G-FAST-DRY-/181480200622?pt=UK_Crafts_Cardmaking_Scrapbooking_Glue_Tape_EH&hash=item2a411019ae very good!
  13. Get a proper one.
  14. I use one of these, http://www.diago.co.uk/pedal-power/diago-powerstation.html and it's great.
  15. Load of rubbish! It did seem to work quite well with a guitar though.
  16. Jacks or Speakons?
  17. [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I chortled into my PG Tips.[/font][/color]
  18. Don't forget Rickenbackers. Oops have I sworn without realising it?
  19. I always lacquer / varnish my fingerboards, rosewood. I don't think it effects the sound too much I just love the feel of it. If it does effect the sound, it's in a way that I like. I've never had it change colour either. Might be the lacquer that Antoria used.
  20. Personally I'd place in a draw somewhere.
  21. Everyone used to say that I never smiled on stage. I thought I did.
  22. Only the one and I'm happy with that. How can anyone be available all the time if they're committed elsewhere.
  23. Have you tried standing the 2x10 on end? It will bring the speakers closer to your ears and add to better dispersion.
  24. Magic kingdom for sale / sold! Terry Brooks. First in a series, brilliant!
