    Bump for a great bass! I'd love this - but I'm a dead man if the Mrs catches me trying to smuggle anymore basses into the house... ( And I love the Sibilla tunes - very impressed!)

    [quote name='lateralus462' post='608534' date='Sep 25 2009, 12:00 PM']You could - I used to use an old Yamaha NS10 woofer with an xlr cable soldered to it!! Gave pretty much the same sort of results as the Sub Kick (although I'm sure the Sub Kick is a little more refined!!!)[/quote] I'm pretty sure that's exactly where Yamaha got the idea for the Sub Kick - as folks were doing exactly that with NS10 woofers & they saw that & decided to make a posh version to sell...

    [quote name='blazer3' post='605299' date='Sep 22 2009, 09:35 AM']I Recently aquired 2 old hardcases, one of which hadnt been opened in approx 15 years so both smell musty as hell, i"ve got em opened up in the spare room as we speak with the window open,is there anything i can use to spray in em, stuff like febreeze etc or will the stuff react with the paint on the basses when they go back in. There old cases and not worth a jot but there better than a gig bag. cheers mick[/quote] I've still got some spare bottles of the proper [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=9178"]Fender Case Deodorizer by Maguires[/url] if you're interested...?

    [quote name='WinterMute' post='605218' date='Sep 22 2009, 01:18 AM']OK, I think I'm missing something, I have the license on my iLok, but not the plug-in, and I can;t seem to find where the download is, I just get shunted back to the iLok license generator. Any ideas? edit: Forget it, I found the DL link... Thanks for the heads up. :-)[/quote] I had the same problem with trying to find the DL link for the software - took me ages to work it out! Glad you got there in the end. There are some really nice bass amp modellers on the plugin - I think it might well turn out to be pretty useful...

    If you have an iLok (required to activate the license) - you can get t[url="http://www.line6.com/news/offers/864"]he Line 6 'Pod Farm' plugin for FREE[/url] I've just tried it out on ProTools 8 & it's pretty cool - especially for free!

    [quote name='Rimskidog' post='604055' date='Sep 20 2009, 10:25 PM']anyways... Took a proper camera down today so thought I'd give you some better pics. In the first you can see that the booth still has a lot of work to be done. Windows need to arrive and be fitted (I have just cut some 4 inch blocks of rockwool and placed them in the aperture for the time being) as does the door. Inside the framing and trapping still need to be done. Electrics and lights also need to be finalised): On this next one you can see that the ceiling is painted, the fire alarm sounder and strobe has been fitted, and one of the cheap bulbs I put in has already blown: And finally, this one's just a slightly better quality version of a shot you've seen above (save the kit isn't mic'd etc this time). It does give you a pretty good perspective on the height of the room though: [/quote] That's a great space for sure!

    [quote name='Rimskidog' post='599081' date='Sep 15 2009, 11:37 AM']thanks man. good eye. Yes it is![/quote] Cool - I've bought a couple of them recently for my SE Gemini's - as I had one of those horrible moments watching helplessly as one toppled on to a floor on a standard mic stand that couldn't take the weight... Knew that the time had come to get at least one 'proper' mic stand! And the SE's are great stands - not done any drum recordings since I got them - but will certainly use them for over-heads next time I do... And what's the mic you have on the guitar stand in front of the kit? A ribbon?
  14. 99ster
    Looking splendid! Is that a pair of SE Electronics 'Stand 1' microphone stands you're using for the overheads?

    [quote name='Marky L' post='592745' date='Sep 8 2009, 11:17 AM']It's a fascinating list to look through. Not only to see some amazing guitars, basses and clothes, but also to see the pricing on some of the stuff sold. There are some wonderful basses and guitars in there and some of the vintage stuff went for what I would say is pretty low pricing. When you look at the sale price on some of the old P basses and also some of the lovely old Gibson guitars it really does make you realise how stupidly over priced some of the stuff on Ebay is. I think it would be good to forward details of specific units off the list to some of the fools asking ludicrous prices for some tatty old pieces of sh*te and point out that an Entwistle owned one went for sensible pricing and they should bloody wise up! (OK I doubt he ever touched the damn thing other than getting it out of the case for a pic or two, but whatever).[/quote] Yes - definitely some bargains were had... [b]A Fender Precision slab-bodied bass guitar, 1966[/b] A re-fin - but one of THE rarest/most prized types of Precision - for £3,840. Have you spotted any of his Jazz basses?

    [quote name='Hutton' post='592898' date='Sep 8 2009, 02:12 PM']I'm afraid that I am not in a position to buy this lovely bass. However, I would just like to say that you have restored my faith in basschat. You are indeed a gentleman. All the very best for a successfull conclusion to your sale.[/quote] +1. Very well put Hutton... Best of luck to you with the sale.

    [quote name='mattbass6' post='592129' date='Sep 7 2009, 02:40 PM'][size=3][font="Arial"]I am selling my rather beautiful, original 1964 Fender Precision bass. Serial number L26409. This was made in the Fullerton factory when Leo Fender still owned the company. It is in great condition for its age and never gets used, hence the sale. The pick-ups and scratch plate (this has been replaced with a genuine Fender part) are not original as they were stolen about 10 years ago along with various other items during a house break in The pick ups in the bass are Seymour Duncan quarter pounders and sound wonderful Everything else on this bass is original. It comes with a hard case too. Let me know your thoughts and please PM with any offers. No trades please as I am not looking for another bass at this stage. Thanks and hopefully hear from you soon.[/font][/size][/quote] Can I ask has it been refinished? The body + the neck / headstock? Thanks.

    Additional picture of actual unit added... **** NOW SOLD **** (sold it on eBay within about 30 secs! maybe the BIN price was too low?!)

    [b]Mackie Onyx 400F Studio Recording Preamp[/b] This is a VERY nice bit of kit - when they first came out they retailed for £700. Makes an excellent hardware front-end to a whole range of DAW software apps (1U rack size). I'm only selling this because I'm upgrading my ProTools rig to a OO3R+ so I don't need the extra mic pre-amps that I used this for... It has a huge range of features - [url="http://www.mackie.com/products/400F/index.html"]which you can read about here on the Mackie site[/url]. Only had very little use in a home studio set-up - so is in MINT condition - complete with all the bits & bobs. They go for around £325 new - [size=2][b]so a bargain at £200! inc postage.[/b][/size] The main features of the Mackie ONYX 400F include: [list] [*]Performs equally well as an ultrahigh-performance studio mic preamp and a superb 192kHz FireWire interface [*]Premium FireWire-based studio recording preamp/audio interface [*]4 flagship Onyx mic preamps with class-leading fidelity and dynamic range [*]Superb AKM 24-bit/192kHz A/D and D/A converters [*]Internal 64-bit floating point processing for superior sound and minimal CPU drain [*]10 x 10 DSP Matrix Mixer with powerful software interface and flexible, recallable routing [*]Onboard DSP provides custom Control Room / Headphone mixes at near-zero latency [*]Stand-alone operation: DSP mixer retains settings even when computer is not connected [*]No channel count sacrifices, even at 192kHz sampling rate [*]4 additional balanced line inputs; 8 balanced line outputs [*]TRS 1/4 inch jack inserts on Inputs 1, 2, 3 and 4 [*]Control Room and Dual Headphone Outputs with independent level controls [*]Dual FireWire ports for daisy chaining and direct connection to Mac or PC [*]MIDI, Word Clock and S/PDIF I/O [*]Includes Tracktion 2 Audio Production software and plug-in bundle [*]Audition, Cubase, Digital Performer, Final Cut, Live, Logic Express, Logic Pro, Nuendo, Tracktion, Tracktor, Reason, Samplitude, Sequoia, Sonar, Soundforge, Soundtrack, Vegas, Wavelab are just some of the supported software titles [/list] [attachment=32297:onxy_400f.jpg] [attachment=32191:30603_l.jpg] Thanks for looking!

    [quote name='BassBod' post='589639' date='Sep 4 2009, 01:30 PM']That's got me all nostalgic...I think all the old buggers like me had one of these at some point between 1982 - 87? Before we had the interweb..all we could do was scour the local shops for the latest and best gear, like Carlsbro, HH....of course you're far too young to even imagine how hard it was for us me'lad...[/quote] Yep - & I'm one of them old buggers who bought one of these new! Ahhhh... Golden days! Brings back some memories...
  21. 99ster
    BUMP!!!
  22. 99ster
    The way that many of these shops do their 'business' in a similar way may well have a lot to do with the fact that many of them are owned by the same two characters - the Harrison brothers - with the 'Music Ground' empire now comprising of the following shops: Music Ground Denmark Street Music Ground Manchester Music Ground Leeds Regent Sound Denmark Street Rockers Denmark Street Rhodes Music Denmark Street The Bass Cellar Denmark Street TPA Denmark Street Hanks Denmark Street ...and good old Andys Denmark Street And they also own both Hiwatt (yes - the Hiwatt) and JMI amps and have their fingers in many other pies as well.

    [quote name='Musky' post='577410' date='Aug 22 2009, 10:22 AM']....And the wear looks a little odd too. Maybe I'm just getting a bit too cynical in my old age. [/quote] Gotta agree about the wear pattern on the back - IMHO that just doesn't look authentic...

    [quote name='steve-soar' post='575916' date='Aug 20 2009, 06:42 PM']Lovely bass. [/quote] Thanks Steve! It is indeed & I always enjoyed the look on people's faces when they hear the sound that comes out of it - great big fat tone. It was a Mustang just like this that Hendrix used to play the bass part on All Along The Watchtower....
