im not 100% sure but i think its the PS37-30, i cant seem to find the spec anywhere to confirm the size of mine is approx 320x400x195mm

Yeah its a pickfoam insert, like lots of squares so you can pick out the shape you want

i picked up a skeleton case, its super tough and a perfect fit, i paid around £40 i think, doesnt mess with my settings too which is nice.

Ibanez btb electronics upgrade & mod possibilities
winterfire666 replied to winterfire666's topic in Repairs and Technical
good idea, nice and simple too. i was also thinking a compressor circuit or possibly even a modulation of some kind would be handy, i have seen some other basses with built in extras, the tm stevens funk machine coming to mind. im sure there are pitfalls with that kind of thing introducing noise though and being a big battery drain too. -
I picked up a 4 string ibanez btb (400 i think) recently as i wanted something with a 35" scale for downtuning. After getting used to the scale and string spacing i have decided i dont like the eq and happen to have a spare aguilar obp2 lying around. The plan is to switch to the 2 band aguilar and replace the pickup blend pot with a 5 way rotary selector so i can have series parallel pickup configuration options. That leaves me with a spare pot (or 2 if i put the preamp on a stacked pot) So i can blank it off which would be fine but im thinking are there any additional mods that i can put in there and use the space for a pot or switch? Just looking for interesting ideas really that will work nicely alongside the aguilar preamp. Any input would be appreciated. Cheers.

Bargain Washburn with Status Electronics £185 BIN
winterfire666 replied to dyerseve's topic in eBay - Weird and Wonderful
the mercury range of basses (and guitars for that matter) were excellent, if it was closer i would have probably been interested, im surprised it hasnt been snapped up though, things seem to be selling slowly at the moment though generally. -

I wouldn't spend any significant money on that finish but it looks fine to me.

my limit was 420 i thought there was a fair chance it might go for more than i could afford, ive wanted one for years so had to jump at it, very pleased with the final price though, thats a lot of cab for the money. yeah he seems a thoroughly nice bloke, good player too and really knows his stuff. he even volunteered to meet me half way which was a nice touch.

I managed to pickup an ebay bargain this week, this wonderful beast of a mesa 4x12. I picked it up yesterday but only just had chance to give it a proper test at volume. My word! What a body of sound, this is a seriously nice cab, warm where it matters and punchy with plenty of clarity and super tight bottom end. I was intending to use this just with my thrash band but it sounds so nice i might use it for my main melodic metal thing when we play bigger stages or headline gigs too. My trusty barefaced super 12t will take duties on smaller gigs and venues with stairs though, this thing aint light. Overall im very very pleased with it, to think i nearly didnt bid as i though it would be out of my budget lol :^)

New bass options, Vigier/Status/ACG/Strandberg choices hmmmmmm
winterfire666 replied to winterfire666's topic in Bass Guitars
its a shame, i know its an awesome bit of kit but it just doesn't grab me visually and thats not the highest priority for me but i wont be buying another bass for a long while so i must be brutal about these things. ive been after an upgrade for a while so ive gotta get it right :^) still a little tempted though. -

winterfire666 replied to winterfire666's topic in Bass Guitars
might try to get there at some point, they have a few things in stock i would like to try out, i know they are all great basses but the excess appeals to me least visually from the range, never played one though. -

the biggest regret for me was not buying a zon sonus 5 for £700 a few years ago. -

winterfire666 replied to winterfire666's topic in Bass Guitars
the model im actually considering is something new but based on the krell which is quite exciting. hopefully ill get chance to try a few pickup options what would you say is the difference between the standard pickups and the MC series? -

Actually dingwall was intended to be on my list, i like the look of the ng2 specifically but i forgot to mention it. Also the strandberg is multiscale too.
