    [quote name='BigBeatNut' timestamp='1390062563' post='2341079'] You may want to listen to [url="https://soundcloud.com/vulfpeck/tone-chaat-joe-dart"]THIS[/url] . Interview with the bassist, focussing on gear. [/quote] Thanks, listening now - painful to listen to though, both of them are speaking really slowly and pausing every couple of words. I'll have what they're smoking!

    Price drop to £120, or £135 posted!

    Cracking bass, go for it. You might want to try an example of their Classic Vibe range beforehand though - they cost a little bit more but there are plenty of used examples around the £220 mark. The VM has a more aggressive sound, whilst the CV sounds slightly warmer, has arguably higher build quality, and a rosewood board with smaller vintage style frets (which I prefer the feel of personally but you may feel different).

    Strung em through the body on my P Bass, survived the last 3 years just fine! They're a bit more flexible than most flats so less prone to breaking with the sharp angle.
  5. dannybuoy
    The best bridge design I've seen is that of the new Yamaha BB - string through but angled to reduce the sharp break angle of the string, plus the string sits on a sharp fulcrum point to give it a more precise anchor point. But hey, this is a pickup thread!

    I'd pop into Northampton (they have a PMT I think, not sure about any other shops) and try out as many as you can!

    As has the Delano Xtender: http://goo.gl/LA9tiZ

    Is that a rosewood board? Looks dark enough to be ebony!

    The cheap pedaltrain option! (although perhaps a bit too big for 3 pedals) http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/10213713/

    The RH750 solves the problem with the top end btw for anyone that didn't know!

    Ssh, those are banned! Sorry, not interested in one of those. The intention was to have a clear out and I've ended up acquiring a bass after buying Hamfist's Westone last night! I've had some overseas interest and this may very well be sold - just waiting for a response to a shipping quote.

    I don't know anything about copyright issues, but Soundcloud sounds perfect for that. When you have something properly recorded, give Bandcamp a whirl - I've bought loads of music from small bands on there!

    [quote name='BetaFunk' timestamp='1375392500' post='2160798'] Keep playing it. [/quote] [quote name='Geek99' timestamp='1375428407' post='2160999'] Sadly real life is getting in the way [/quote] Send it on a basschat tour, we'll all gig the hell out if it for you and return it once we've knackered it!

    [quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1389827792' post='2338511'] Nope its more about ohms and driver efficiency. Putting in a higher wattage speaker may in fact make it quieter as your amp could be (and probably is) too weedy to drive it fully. If your existing speaker is 8ohms then replacing it with a similarish 4ohm one should get you a bit more oomph. But at the end of the day a 30w amp is pretty much a 30w amp. [/quote] Hmm, I think you may risk frying something if you switch the speaker to 4ohms when it designed to run only with 8ohms?
  15. dannybuoy
    ... and if it's gone I have a brand new never fitted one that's going to be listed on here soon! I want a bit more than £40 though! ;-)

    Now being parted out here: http://basschat.co.uk/topic/227740-parting-out-a-squier-jazz-neck-body-tuners-controls-bridge [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/wwfO5wy.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/CXNyoea.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/fA1QWvR.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/PCIk1DT.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/rSBqMKb.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/XYkUYLa.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/zpnaqKZ.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/TFCnsOB.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/MPeK7tu.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/14q9t1I.jpg[/IMG]

    My trusty old BB415, up for sale as I've upgraded to the more fancy BB1025X. I've gigged this quite a bit, but it's still in good condition with a couple of light scratches here and there. Great P like tone, and massive growling rock tone with both pickups engaged. Only 42mm at the nut like a 4-string P - great if like me you find Fender 5'ers too much of a handful. Lovely black sparkle paint job, much nicer than the plain gloss black on the new range IMHO. It has a pair of chrome domed knobs on it right now, but the original black plastic speed knobs will be supplied also. Local pickup preferred though (St Neots area), although I can deliver anywhere in the UK for an extra £15. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/JafS0MS.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/kQZyKZ0.jpg[/IMG]

    Peavey T40 in natural, born in 1979, wearing a set of toaster pickups! All original except for replacement pickguard - original one is warped but will be supplied also. Good condition for age, a few small dings here and there and a larger one on the top of the neck by the first fret which you should hopefully be able to see in the pictures. Now sold!

    The 100W should do the trick - but there's a bargain £795 CTM300 on the 'bay at the moment: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/251419070436?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 Shame it's pickup only and miles away from you though! FWIW I had an AD200 and never had a problem filling a large room and even played outside with it once and it was nowhere near struggling, I reckon I could've got away with half the amount of power.

    I have here a Squier Matt Freeman sig P in vintage white for sale, in very good condition except for a tiny paint chip in the neck pocket area (pictured) and some very mild buckle rash on the back (couldn't even photograph it, it's very shallow dimpling). These are similar in spec to the Classic Vibe basses, except this one has a maple neck, and the frets are a bit different - instead of thin and low, these are wide and low (in comparison with the standard medium-jumbos used on most Fenders which are wide and tall). These cost a bit more than the standard CV range, cheapest online price is currently £373. I'm after £230 if collected from St Neots, although I can deliver anywhere in the UK for an extra £15. UPDATE: I will be working in London 28th Jan - 3rd Feb, so can meet anywhere central (ideally Kings Cross, London Bridge or Waterloo). Here she is: [url="http://www.fender.com/en-GB/squier/series/artist/matt-freeman-precision-bass-maple-fingerboard-vintage-white"]http://www.fender.co...d-vintage-white[/url]

    [quote name='iconic' timestamp='1389642999' post='2336516'] i've both vmj and cvj and i have fallen out of love with the classic vibe....lovely thing but i prefer the sound of the vmj...seems a bit more...i dont know a bit less smooth and more bite than the cvj...the cvj seems duller for no apparent reason....the cvj does cone with a fatter cap could be why or the pup spacing maybe? [/quote] Same thing with the P's, I think it's partly due to the use of 500K pots in the VM rather than the usual 250K, not sure if the Jazzes are the same.

    [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1389616986' post='2336090'] The 2008s were improved by graphite rods in the neck, and they also removed the S1 switching that had been in the previous series. I believe the outer layer of paint/whatever was also thinner to allow more resonance, plus there was the addition of a hi-mass bridge and lighter tuners. Saying all that though, it`s now been sold. [/quote] Graphite rods were introduced back in '95!

    No mention yet of the Barefaced 69'er! The way it's designed should in theory mean it's easier to hear yourself clearly both on stage and around different points in the room too. Also it's by far the lightest option!
