  1. Hi all,
    Got a problem just developed with my Promethean P5210 combo. As of last weekend it has started distorting at all volume levels, through both 10s and both tweeters. I noticed it two gigs ago but seem to remember that the volume dropped first when I first turned amp on and had to turn it on and off to get the level right and noticed distortion problem later that night. I've tried plugging an iPod into the aux input and the distortion disappears, so obviously not a speaker problem. Tried different basses and leads and both speaker outputs to no avail. Just about to remove top panel from amp to see if there's anything obvious. I think it may still be covered by Thomann 3 year warranty but shipping back to them is a holy fanny on!
    Help!

  2. Great! My CIJ Jazz is 20mm at the first fret! Cheers again, Paul.

    Order prepped, just waiting for my ppi claim cheque to clear this week then order will be in! £220 for neck and MM ash Precision body, including delivery, vat and taxes, from Musician's Friend!

    Cheers again, people!

  3. I meant to mention in OP, how slim are they? One thing that puts me off the Allparts neck is reports of it being quite chunky, which was something I discovered with a Warmoth neck I owned. I'm looking for the same slim dimentions as on my CIJ Jazz.

  4. Hi all,
    Just started sourcing parts for a Precision/Jazz build and wondered if anyone has any experience/opinions in Mighty Mite necks. Could get an unfinished maple Jazz neck and Ash Precision body from Musicians Friend for the same price as an unfinished Allparts neck! Was originally leaning towards Allparts as they look more authentic with the truss rod adjustment at the heel, but if I can keep costs down that leaves me more to spend on other bits. Plus, I should be fairly confident of the Mighty Mite neck and body going together without any fettling. I've heard that the MM necks will need a bit of work done to the frets, but was gonna get a set up done on completion anyway.
    Thanks for any advice!

  5. Hi all. Recently downloaded Reaper and have to admit I'm a bit of a noob in this department so may well be making a very basic error somewhere along the line but I tried downloading some VSTs last night, namely EpicVerb, CV Piano and Mr. Ray. Files are in Downloads, also downloaded WinRar as EpicVerb is a .rar file. Tried to get them into Plugin folder in Programs/Reaper on C drive using WinRar but keep getting the same "Access Denied" message in WinRar. Going to try uninstalling WinRar tonight and trying again. Any advice greatly received!

  6. Just had a call from a bandleader I used to work for offering me a month in a 5 star hotel in Eilat, Israel, starting 19th April. He isn't the bandleader for this particular band but said he would ask all the bass players he used to use in his band to try and fill the gig. He is looking for someone on a full time basis to cover all their UK gigs as well, do it is a permanent post. I don't know much about what they do over here but I have done the Eilat gig 4 times with other bands. It's in a pub attached to a 5 star hotel. Accommodation is in the hotel, all very nice, all meals, laundry, drink allocation etc included. PA and back line included too so only bass required. I enjoyed my times over there a lot. Would also have to add that some of the ladies in that part of the world are stunning!

    I can't do it as I have work and family commitments but if anyone is interested drop me a pm and I'll forward all details on.

    Cheers.
