  1. I used to have the 300-7 version, excellent amp and I had it for around 10 years and I never had any problems with it! Good luck with the sale
  2. I'm not usually a fan of basses that aren't a 'traditional' shape etc but man that wood looks good!
  3. That's sad to hear, my brother in our band has always used Marshall amps + cabs and I always thought they sounded excellent. He is a legend. Turn it up to 11 Jim
  4. Thanks I have been! Not cheeky at all, I managed to get it a bit better than the pics but I'm sure in the future I'll be soldering something again
  5. Excellent thanks! All sorted My soldering skills made what seems an easy job very frustrating
  6. There were a few times when my band had just started out, none of us could drive and we had a gig that was only us playing so we needed transport - luckily we had all our own gear PA included. Our drummers brother at the time had a sprinter and drove us so we lugged all the gear in the back. All was good until I was locked in the back in the pitch black for the entire journey with all the gear moving around and only a bungee chord to hold onto Was really funny and as the guitarist and drummer + drummers brother could hear me they decided to go round a roundabout for about 5 minutes Then on the trip home the band got locked in the back and drove around which was a laugh! Another time which I can't even remember why but I ended up in the boot with the bass drum and toms on top of me with my face pressed up against the back window. I did get some funny looks from the drivers behind
  7. Thanks for the replies, do you mean swap these two around - there's two wires that come from the main wire from the pups (hopefully you can see the arrows) [IMG]http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r569/S9_S12_Bass/delanowiring.jpg[/IMG]
  8. [IMG]http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r569/S9_S12_Bass/IMAG0925.jpg[/IMG] Can't see anything that looks like it would cause any issue.....
  9. Lol and what is a 'proper' bass then If I don't touch anything there is no buzz. If I touch a pole piece with my finger there's a slight buzz. If the string touches a pole piece and is held there, then there is no sound if I hit any string - like someone has turned the amp off I mean there won't be a situation where the string is constantly on the pickups anyway!
  10. [quote name='Who's Who' timestamp='1333475656' post='1602344'] What about getting some black screws and screwing all the screws back in without the pickguard. That could look pretty cool! [/quote] That's what I would do
  11. No idea, I mean it sounds excellent otherwise and the strings aren't touching the pups when I play so that's the main thing I guess
  12. Yea passive pickups! Should of said, Everything is connected well so it's not like some wires are hanging by a thread.......
  13. Hello, I randomly came across this earlier with my Highway One with the Delano pups that there is absolutely zero buzz from the pups! Excellent then I touched the pole piece and it buzzed a little but nothing excessive. Then as I had the strings loose the string was magnetised to the pup and if the string was in contact with the pole piece there would be no sound...... Is this normal or some weird wiring problem, I fitted the pups myself and follwed the instructions for which wire goes where etc It doesn't really effect when I play as I have the pups low just I thought this was weird! Thanks!
  14. I handily left my amp at home then I didn't realise until after the 30-45 min drive and set up that I had forgotten it, so I managed to get home pick it up drive back right in time for sound check. Felt like a right twat that I remembered the two 4x10s but not the amp..........
  15. I've got Delano PMVC 4 FE/M2s in my Highway one which are excellent!
  16. [quote name='Rick's Fine '52' timestamp='1333295906' post='1599665'] Having just taken delivery of a '52 TV Bassman, thought i'd post a pic of it with my '52 Precision, nice set, the original complete Bass Rig, all in remarkable condition. Thought I'd share, as I'm a happy bunny today, now i've paired these two together.... [/quote] Beautiful

    Trace Elliots

    I've had experience with the old, AH300-7,V6, two 4x10s and a 2x10 and new, AH600-12, 4x10 and 1x15c. Both old and new were and are excellent. I don't think you could go wrong with any Trace tbh but the older stuff does seem to go for quite cheap on here and also on ebay!
  18. Sorry to hear this but hope you get better soon! Great prices and good luck with the sales!
  19. Funnily enough I saw this yesterday but didn't have a look. It is terrible and the wear just, to me, clearly looks as though someone has gone mad with a sander on a no-name neck and stuck a decal on it! Or just ruined a perfectly good neck!
  20. That's excellent it was obviously meant to be
