  1. I bought a bass from Pete. It was packed well, and he sent it out very quickly. Thanks!

  3. Some info in this thread: https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/497820-ir-for-eub-3sigma-in-a-live-setting/

  5. Hi, the advert title says "MB58R 121 P" but photos show "MB58R 121 Energy". The Energy is a better cab than the P. https://www.markbass.it/product/mb58r-121-energy/ https://www.markbass.it/product/mb58r-121-p/
  6. Peterson StroboStomp HD tuner Manufacturer: https://www.petersontuners.com/products/strobostomphd/ A great tuner - quick and accurate, different colour display options, and Peterson's (optional) "sweetened" tunings. I have both this larger HD and its smaller sibling the Mini, but I'm downsizing my pedalboard so keeping just the Mini. In the photos, that's a thread of fluff to the left of the footswitch, not a scratch. The rubber on the underside has been removed to assist attaching it to a pedalboard, and afraid I don't have the original box. £95 posted

  8. Squier Vintage Modified fretless jazz neck - spares or repair I picked this neck up recently to make a bitsa, but it became apparent that: The truss rod feels fine and turns in both directions - but doesn't seem to have an affect on the relief. The relief with Fender Nickel Plated Steel .045-.150 strings is 0.25mm. The fingerboard has some unevenness or playing wear, to the extent that a few notes sometimes choke or buzz slightly. It's not awful, but it would be better if it got planed. Higher action helps though - I found it playable enough with action at the 12th fret position of E string 2.5mm, G string 2.25mm. But I think you wouldn't be able to get super low action. Number of fret positions: 20 Radius: 9.5” Material: Ebonol Nut width: 1.5” (38.1mm) Scale length: 34” £50 posted within UK. Now £30 posted.
  9. One thing to consider about getting two 4-ohm cabs is that while they will work fine with your current Yamaha amp head, if you want to change heads in the future you might find that your choice is restricted, since many (most?) heads don't go down to 2 ohms. Another is that while the combination of a 1x15 and a 2x10 is not necessarily wrong, and some people are getting good results - it's also not generally the modern modular approach, which is two identical cabs. While impedance and speaker diameters are quite important, there are other factors. Describing your situation might get useful specific cab recommendations (e.g. living room vs pubs vs functions; jazz duo vs heavy metal nonet; any budget or weight considerations).
  10. Thanks Michael for selling me a pedal and posting it so quickly - great transaction!
  11. Low B is B0 (30.9Hz). https://www.mooeraudio.com/product/Baby-Tuner--96.html says "Detection range: 12Hz ~ 4186Hz" However https://www.korg.com/uk/products/tuners/tm_60/specifications.php says "C1 (32.70 Hz)–C8 (4186.01 Hz)". So it's not something you can fix; unfortunately it's just not designed to be used with a 5-string bass.
  12. Possibly out of range of your tuner. Why is there a range? Not sure, but frequencies are logarithmic so I guess it's easier for tuner algorithms to distinguish between higher notes than lower ones.
  13. You can tune to the harmonic when setting intonation.
