A double bass would be so much better on every level.

[quote name='ben4343' timestamp='1488635950' post='3250651'] Having been through a similar process, I would recommend a LS2. [/quote] I don't think it will do simultaneous output to two amps. It can switch between one or the other.

I notice there's no guideline price. Should we start a sweepstake on how much it goes for?

[quote name='pete.young' timestamp='1483799789' post='3210221'] I think Al Gare is still playing in Imelda's regular band. Darrell Higham left when they split up though. I'll let you know after the gig in May. [/quote] Postscript to this - I went into the Box Office yesterday to pick up the tickets. I said to the woman at the desk "I've come to pick up some tickets for a concert in the Corn Exchange" She looked me up and down, then said "would that be for Gilbert O'Sullivan?" How humiliating!

[quote name='Painy' timestamp='1488306930' post='3247776'] I've found my Snark pedal copes with the low B better than any other tuner I've tried (and I've tried most of them). [/quote] My Snark clipon is worse than useless with a low B. TC Polytune clip is much better. Korg DT10 is great too, although it takes up a lot of space.

Thanks Platypus, that looks promising, we'll have a chat with them and see if they're happy to take it on.

Yes. Reason being that the effects loop normally runs at line level voltage and that's probably what you will get from the line out of a keyboard.

You could also try the effects return.

Gents, Need to find a clueful amp technician in the London area, to service and re-bias a Fender Princeton and fix the problems with the reverb (probably also a valve replacement). Any recommendations?

[quote name='AndyTravis' timestamp='1487978451' post='3244869'] The single cut 5 string sound gear won that round - a great bass. [/quote] I tried one of those too, in Wunjos. As you say a great bass with a huge range of sounds and very good build quality. Can't believe they can make it at the price. If only they'd done a fan-fretted version ...

Seems fine here - I'm getting a miserable 18 Mbps on Infinitiy, yet.

Check out your local cash converters.

I have an FC300 which can be used to control a lot of the functions of the gr55 and can probably be set up to trigger various othrr things. Have a look at Google, there are quite a few articles. If it looks interesting let me know and we will work something out that will allow you to try it out.

Don't put the Zoom in the effects loop. It is not a line level voltage device. Put it in between the bass and the amp.

[quote name='spectoremg' timestamp='1487785626' post='3242916'] This. I can't think of many proggers back in the day who used Fenders bar John Paul Jones and occasionally Geezer. [/quote] Roger Waters. Greg Lake.

[quote name='Phil Adams' timestamp='1487762669' post='3242499'] the chap Ive just spoken to at GAK reckons you shouldn't do that because the line out is an amplified signal. [/quote] He's kind-of right. The Line Out signal is at a line-level voltage, and I think you might do better to put it into the Ashdown Effects Loop return. I'll add my voice to the 'quieten down the drummer and buy another 2x10' crowd.

Colin Hodgkinson. He found a way of playing bass that no one else had thought of, and no one else has matched.

I wouldn't want to be without my microthumpinator.

[quote name='TrevorR' timestamp='1487278550' post='3238657'] So, anyone recognise ANY of these at all? I love 'em! [/quote] I was a big fan of Horslips and still have the first LP on vinyl, the one with the concertina-shaped cover. Never liked Iona though. Much more into Alba. I'd like to nominate Any Trouble - perfectly crafted and performed pop for now people, disappeared without trace possibly due to Clive Gregson looking like your least favourite geography teacher. What a pity.
