    [quote name='Prunesquallor' timestamp='1423064107' post='2680208'] Thanks! I think it'd look really good on you. [/quote] No it wouldn't It would be stuffed up somewhere dark by the missus cos I'm still in trouble for buying a Musicman last week.....

    [quote name='KevB' timestamp='1423136719' post='2681159'] Not tried the MXR but I've used a Hartke Bassattack pedal for years and liked it, wouldn't gig without it now. Despite all the knobs and buttons on my Trace amp I think I can get just that bit more out of it with the pedal up front. I've used both passive jazz and precision with it. I wouldn't recommend it if you are into a lot of fiddling on stage though, the position settings on the knobs are almost impossible to see on stage. A while back there was an anniversary edition of the pedal with clearer knobs that was available at a stupidly low price, wish I'd picked one up. They are not available any more but the regular black one is, gone up in price a bit over the years but still cheaper than the MXR. [/quote] You can buy new knobs online very cheaply - I had the same issue with visibility and got some black knobs with a big white stripe on to replace the chrome topped ones for a couple of quid.

    [quote name='leschirons' timestamp='1423085660' post='2680648'] Like yours, I have an early one ( 2003) Couldn't get on with the paint on mine so took it back to the wood and sealed it with Danish oil. Quite a nice piece of timber in fact despite them supposedly having cheaper cuts of wood to keep the cost down. It now feels great (to me anyway) I also took the opportunity to whip about .5mm (that's point five) off the back of the neck. It's now the perfect profile for me, sounds and plays great and if it does get stolen or broken, it's not cost me €2,000 [/quote] Did you strip the neck yourself or get it done professionally?

    [quote name='Mr Arkadin' timestamp='1423068692' post='2680310'] Is the make a trade secret or summat? Go on, you can tell us, no-one else will know. [/quote] Heres a cryptic clue - Joey, Robert, Michael and William Motorbike .....man and Lois .....eyes, dead rabbit

    [quote name='hairychris' timestamp='1423057057' post='2680078'] Haha, I picked up the 5-string one that was on sale here and it arrived last week. Great bass, no nonsense, but so high output that I had to re-EQ everything on my rig! I'm not a slap player, but my band's drummer is.. and holy cow. With the 2-band cranked all the way up it's insane. The only thing that I'm not convinced about is the glossy neck. I also need to do something with the scratchplate as it is a little cheesy! The matte grey, though, I like and have previously owned a guitar with a similar (but smooth) finish. [/quote] Yep, not sure about the painted neck yet. Will get some sweaty gigs under my belt and then decide what to do. Might stick a brillo pad in the shopping next week just in case! And the scratchy issue is now addressed it seems.

    Ooh, my new scratchy and black screws have just arrived! Thats gonna be 20 mins well spent later....

    Gigging every weekend and lucky to get 3 gigs and a rehearsal out of a set of most steel rounds. I must have acidic sweat or summat and as soon as they start to dull they have to go. However, i have recently discovered a new brand that stays lovely and zingy much longer than usual so have switched all my basses in to those. Getting about 5 gigs out of them it seems. Happy days.
  15. Mudpup
    That's a really nice classy looking bass you have there.....

    Just grabbed this little monster a few days ago. Been fighting off Stingray gas for a few weeks and popped into a nearby music store to try one out. This was hanging up so I thought I would give it a go.......blimey, I couldn't tell the difference from a full on new Stingray Classic with my ears and the Sterling Ray34 didnt even come close soundwise. The 3 band Stingray didn't float my boat as much as the 2 band SUB. Couple of little dings but in overall great condition. Got a black scratchplate incoming to get rid of the alloy thing. The finish is growing on me in a no nonsense ok to whack a p***head in a pub with it kind of way. Its a really early one from May 2003 which apparently has the original Ray 2 band preamp and pickups in it.

    [quote name='funky8884' timestamp='1422726072' post='2676164'] My BB2 arrived yesterday and finally this afternoon I have given it a go, its so light I can throw it up in the air and catch it repeatedly until i get bored of the game. The amount of Bass that comes from the cab is unbelievable ! the joist's in my house have been singing and dancing !!! Its early days for me but the tweeter knob is a great addition too. This is my 2nd Barefaced cab and if I had the cash I would buy another. [/quote] It'll loosen up a bit too.......
  22. Mudpup
    Still available? I'll have if if you still have it please.....
  23. Mudpup
    I have a stack of 2 BB2 cabs and don't find them particularly middy either. You do have to re eq though and also stand some feet away when you do it - I did a gig last week where i thought i was missing some slam onstage but according to a punter at half time he could feel his intestines moving at the back of the room. And the diallable HF horn will give you all the sizzle you need without getting all spiky and horrible.

    SOLD.... EMG 3 band preamp Installed in my Spector Euro for 18 months and have now popped the original Tonepump back in it so this is surplus to read. A guitar tech did the swap as I am clueless with this sort of thing. Original knobs, box and instructions included along with 18v battery thingy. Fits a 4 knob bass - volume, blend, bass/treble, mid,freq controls. Currently £103 at Thomanns - I thought £50 plus postage (or free tea with collection) was about right? http://www.thomann.de/gb/emg_bqc_system_3band_eq.htm Pics to follow when Photo bucket has sorted itself out

    Here's the better pictures...... And I've dropped the price to £375 as I think I have priced it a bit high initially and can't change it in the thread. Always willing to discuss options too ☺ [URL=http://s1271.photobucket.com/user/mudpup1/media/Guitars/Fender%20Blacktop%20Jazz%20bass/temporary-44.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1271.photobucket.com/albums/jj640/mudpup1/Guitars/Fender%20Blacktop%20Jazz%20bass/temporary-44.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s1271.photobucket.com/user/mudpup1/media/Guitars/Fender%20Blacktop%20Jazz%20bass/temporary-40.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1271.photobucket.com/albums/jj640/mudpup1/Guitars/Fender%20Blacktop%20Jazz%20bass/temporary-40.jpg[/IMG][/URL][URL=http://s1271.photobucket.com/user/mudpup1/media/Guitars/Fender%20Blacktop%20Jazz%20bass/temporary-43.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1271.photobucket.com/albums/jj640/mudpup1/Guitars/Fender%20Blacktop%20Jazz%20bass/temporary-43.jpg[/IMG][/URL][URL=http://s1271.photobucket.com/user/mudpup1/media/Guitars/Fender%20Blacktop%20Jazz%20bass/temporary-57.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1271.photobucket.com/albums/jj640/mudpup1/Guitars/Fender%20Blacktop%20Jazz%20bass/temporary-57.jpg[/IMG][/URL][URL=http://s1271.photobucket.com/user/mudpup1/media/Guitars/Fender%20Blacktop%20Jazz%20bass/temporary-61.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1271.photobucket.com/albums/jj640/mudpup1/Guitars/Fender%20Blacktop%20Jazz%20bass/temporary-61.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
