Thanks TG, a couple of good ideas there. The pedalparts one looks pretty good. I can feel a project coming on!

Anyone know of a good circuit or kit for a Pro Co Rat clone?

Thanks for the comments and pms (all replied to). To clear a couple of things up: Trades - since the only reason for selling this is to buy another bass, I'm not looking for any trades. Shipping overseas - at the moment, I'd prefer a UK buyer. It's not just the shipping but the inevitable hassles with exchange rate which always seem to mean that I lose out big time. If you are prepared to cover currency charges and arrange your own courier, then send me a PM and we can discuss it. Air fares to the UK are pretty cheap and I will pick you up from Stansted!

I'd like to make bassmanady an offer for his BB NE 2, so I need to put my TRB5P mk 1 up for sale. This is a Japanese TRB5P mark 1 dating from 1991, with Piezo bridge pickup and PJ configuration. Controls are volume, blend, bass, treble, piezo cut and a switch to turn piezo on and off. It's neck-through construction with a flamed maple cap on a maple body and an ebony fretboard. There is a little fret wear but it's hardly noticeable and doesn't affect playability of the instrument. Condition is not perfect - there is one bit of mojo, a scratch on the top side of the body which has gone through the finish, but this isn't visible to either player or audience. Other than that, the bass is in excellent condition for a 20-year-old instrument with no buckle rash and only the usual light surface scratches. Sound wise this is an incredible bass, a veritable tone monster. I tried all three of bassmanady's TRBs and this one was the best-sounding of the three, with stronger lower mids and more presence. It's set up with a low action and passes the Kiwi test (a £1 coin won't fit between the 'B' string and the 12th fret) with new D'Addarios. String spacing is 19mm at the bridge. Unfortunately I don't have the original Yamaha case, but a Thomann tweed case is included. Realistically priced to sell at £500 plus shipping. I'd prefer pickup from Ipswich or London, or a meet-up reasonably local to Ipswich. Here are some photos, if you need more views of anything just ask!

[quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1354391405' post='1885561'] Was there any live Bass with S2S?..... [/quote] Don't think there was a bass guitar. All done with synths.

Should be fine. I use a Tecamp Puma 110 as a monitor for me and the drummer, works perfectly.

Bass player by choice, or relegated guitarist?

Relegated? Promoted!! -
You could try an Artec SE3 preamp instead - I've got one in a Bass Collection and it works well.

Has panto season started already?

Very cool. I have a Vintage with the same neck, it plays brilliantly. BTW, if you include the 'IMG Code' rather than the Email/Html link, the pictures will magically appear in the thread. Like this: [IMG]http://i1354.photobucket.com/albums/q693/Karl_Altdorfer/IMG_0545.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1354.photobucket.com/albums/q693/Karl_Altdorfer/IMG_0544.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1354.photobucket.com/albums/q693/Karl_Altdorfer/IMG_0543.jpg[/IMG]

EBS Neoline 2x12. I love mine so much I'm going to be buried in it, so it's not for sale.

A delete button would be a great loss. It's very handy to be able to view old For Sale threads in the current forum when you're trying to price an item (for sale or purchase). I'm also guessing that the picture on the forum listings isn't showing up because the picture upload facility doesn't work. An option to make it all smaller would be an improvement: currently on my laptop I can see about 10 listings on the old forum, but only 3 or 4 on the new one.

F/S Yamaha BBNE2 LTD PWT + Yamaha case "SOLD"

Is it possible to somehow reduce the size of the individual listings? 60 items on a page is a great idea, but may become not so appealing if the page is 19 screens full of data

Need a basic introduction to microphones!
pete.young replied to Truckstop's topic in Accessories and Misc
Alex, If you can get hold of a book called 'Live Sound for the Performing Musician' by Paul White, it's well worth a read and has lots of information that I found really useful about mikes, mixers, and all kinds of other stuff to do with live sound. -
Larry Graham - bass playing equivalent of Jimi Hendrix?
pete.young replied to paulconnolly's topic in General Discussion
[quote name='paulconnolly' timestamp='1351457236' post='1851450'] Today's Sunday Times culture section has an article on Larry Graham claiming that "he did for electric bass what Jimi Hendrix did for electric guitar". Well did he? [/quote] Whoever wrote that article had clearly never heard of Colin Hodgkinson. -
Weird bits and bobs include a complete failure of the 'Classifieds' tab tonight on Firefox 16.0.2, generating the following: Fatal error: Call to a member function category_view() on a non-object in /opt/basschat/upload/admin/applications_addon/other/classifieds/modules_public/core/core.php on line 245 Also the picture of Kiwi's old Celinder seems to have disappeared. Other than that , Firefox seems to be working normally, but IE8 and Chrome both generate very different views of the site. Seems like there's work to do , good luck.

Sorry, I misread this as 'Carry On Jools'. OOh , Matron!
