How about a swap for a mint condition and completely unmarked Spector NS2000/4 plus a bit of cash or combo of bits below? Fantastic Spector sound and a really playable neck with low action. Also have a couple of Ashdown cabs lying around that i'm going to be moving on shortly and some bits such as Protection Racket gigbag or Mono GS1 strap that you may have a use for. The Spector has EMG HZ pickups and an active EMG tone circuit, neck thru design, NS designed curved front and back, maple body with figured amber top and black hardware. Its my back up to my Euro 4LX but i fancy having something a bit different. Its the one on the left below and im in Herts so not far away. And here a re acouple of image links for it below [url="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6229/6289391378_5864118f0f_b.jpg"]http://farm7.static....864118f0f_b.jpg[/url] [url="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6042/6288871773_821f5a5ea7_b.jpg"]http://farm7.static....21f5a5ea7_b.jpg[/url] -
Youve obviously never been to one of our gigs

Bass and treble at about 9o'clock and mids at about 3o'clock is flat but you'll find that in reality a small bass or treble adjustment in conjunction with volume makes the mids sound quite different. You can still boost the mids a bit anyway and if you set the bass or treble around 11/12o'clock then it sounds more traditionally scoopy. I demoed it like that at a shop and thought it sounded a bit gutless until the guy there showed me how to get the best out of it Its one of those amps that doesnt jump out at you with an in your face tone but if you spend a bit of time with it you'll figure it out. You need to get away from the "everything at 12 and boost from there" idea and its not an amp for fiddlers - it makes you just get on with playing I find its really punchy and warm sounding with a solid clarity with the bass and treble at about 10o'clock and mids at 3o'clock. Bloody loud as well.

The LH500 does have mids - you just need to rethink it and turn the bass and treble down and the volume up. If you can get to Herts/Essex border i have a GK MBFusion and a Hartke LH500 you can try out. I also have an Ashdown 15" cab with an Eminence Deltalite speaker in it which does a very good Barefaced impersonation (up for sale if anyone wants it - havent done piccys yet but its a 9/10 cosmetically and weighs next to nothing. £130 would sort it)

FS: Brand new! Korg Pitchblack Poly & MXR Bass-compressor
Mudpup replied to Bassdude BE's topic in Effects For Sale
Quick bump for a great tuner pedal. I bought one a few months ago and its great - stable, intuitive and feels bombproof. -
Was it that red one? I had a little bid but it got a bit rich for buying something without playing it and i chickened out. Wonder if a basschatter got it? Thinking about picking up a jazz or precision for the stable.

I have a Korg Pitchblack Poly and its great. Accurate and visible. Prefer the strobe mode on stage.

There is a music shop in Faversham, Kent with one of those. I was in there a few months ago and had a go on it. It was a LTD edition and signed on the headstock and was lovely. I'm pretty sure it was an FNA and not a Corvette but i may be mistaken. It belonged to the owner and i think he wanted about 1200 for it. Might be worth a call to see if its still there. Sorry cant remember name of shop but theres only one as far as i know so shouldnt be hard to find. -
I have a Maplin one - had it 4 months with no issues and no noise either. Powers a Boss CEB 3 Chorus, Hartke Bass Attack and a Korg Pitchblack Poly tuner.

Just bought David's Boss Chorus pedal from him. Great guy, posted quickly from afar and really pleased with it. Top man and thanks v much!

Glenn Hughes was on ITV breakfast telly the other day. Promoting the Marshall concert this weekend with a busted finger from a bizarre volleyball accident. S'pose it beats quad bikes or gardening accidents. Showed a bit of Black Country Communion which woke me up a bit!

[quote name='shizznit' timestamp='1348240718' post='1811322'] My percussionist bought one and was using it last night at a rehearsal. It folds up pretty neat and quite light. A bargain for 30 quid! [/quote] What did it sound like?
-
The mighty Yellowhouse are at The Rising Sun in Slough tonight (Friday) and Egham United Services club on Saturday night. Onstage 9ish till late. Rock covers - or Stadium Rock in your Local as we like to say. I have some new toys to play with so come and say hello if anyones about.

Try DV247 online and send it back if you dont like it???? They have a 30 days no quibble guarantee. I did and kept it (MB Fusion) - great little amp.

I had one for a few months. It was pretty good, great set of features (presets, tuner, aux in, compressor and valve drive). Not too hard too lug about as its pretty tall and has good handles. I had the 15" version and found it was a bit lacking in punch (loads of boom but a bit lifeless in loud rehearsals). In hindsight, perhaps the 210 would have been a better bet. Thomann are selling one at £367 here http://www.thomann.de/gb/search_dir.html?xsid=8a777a7e9ae2d11a458c07e33c71de66&sw=bg500&x=0&y=0 Bargain at that price i reckon - you wouldnt take too much of a hit if you didnt get on with it and moved it on later.
-
Trouble is, they obscure the telly. Might have to move them for X Factor
-
The price was even more attractive :-)

Just took delivery of a pair of GK 212MBE cabs from Thomann. Amazing service - ordered Tues night and delivered today. Seem like a bargain at £205 each and sound great after a quietish pootle this afternoon. Try them out in anger next Friday and Saturday though. Heres a piccy [IMG]http://i1271.photobucket.com/albums/jj640/mudpup1/abf92b818f1830165cd0b24540ad90ff.jpg[/IMG]

Very unhappy with Ernie Ball Cobalt strings
Mudpup replied to longtimefred's topic in General Discussion
I had a set of DR Fat Beams die on me after 3 gigs the other week. Only about 7 or 8 hours playing time and the whole set sounded like rubber bands. Previous Hi Beams had been a bit better but i have just popped a set of Elixir Stainles Steels on to see if they last massively longer. I do like bright piano'ey strings i must admit. -
I would take a wild guess and say he's in North London -
Had a parallel experience last year during my great "i'm gonna join a band after a 15 year break" comeback. Local guys needed a bass player, had a setlist which included some stuff i liked and some that looked fun to learn so i auditioned and got the job. Guitarists were fine, singer ok and i thought the drummer was steady but unspectacular. Had 2 rehearsals with them ready for 1st gig in a months time and discovered the drummer couldnt play the same thing twice - he seemed ok initially and just seemed to throw a wobbler at random points in a song (you know, the old massive tom roll and get back in somewhere else in the song ;-)). My approach is a "play it until we nail it and then move on" sort of thing but theirs was a "never mind, we'll try it next rehearsal cos we're getting bored now" view. They had been together for 4 years rehearsing every 2 weeks. I can cope with flat singers and geetards but the one thing i do need is a solid drummer that i can hook up with.
