  1. Unless you're really attached to the Ibby, I would just sell it and buy a fretless!
  2. [size=4][u][b] Creation Audio Holy Fire[/u][/b][/size] Homepage: [url="http://www.creationaudiolabs.com/holyfire"]http://www.creationaudiolabs.com/holyfire[/url] Reviews: [url="http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Effects/product/Creation+Audio+Labs/Holy+Fire/10/1"]http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews.../Holy+Fire/10/1[/url] Great natural sounding tubey overdrive, but more importantly it has glowing orange LEDs inside so it looks like it's on fire(!). This needs it's own dedicated 48v power supply, which comes included. Now sold on eBay! [size=4][u][b] Artec APW-7 Dual Mode Whish Wah[/b][/u][/size] Homepage: [url="http://www.artecsound.com/effect/apw-7.htm"]http://www.artecsound.com/effect/apw-7.htm[/url] Reviews: [url="http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Effects/product/Artec/APW-7/10/1"]http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews...rtec/APW-7/10/1[/url] A wah in a sturdy but light metal chassis, with a unique magnetic pot that doesn't wear out, guitar/bass modes, range knob, whish/resonance knob, plus it's true bypass. It's got some great reviews on Harmony Central, and holds the low end nicely. I only got this brand new a couple of weeks ago and have only used it in my bedroom with socks on, so it's absolutely mint! [b]SOLD[/b].

    Cliff Burton

    I'd go for the Morley Power Wah. Cliff used an old chrome Morley Tel-Ray Power Wah Boost, they kinda rare but pop up on eBay every now and then. After those old chrome ones they sounded crap, but the models since 2006 have a new inductor that sounds a lot closer to the original. I've been thinking of getting one but don't know if I want one of those or a Wilson Vintage Spec 12-Position Bass Q-Wah or a Teese RMC3!
  4. Al Cisneros is the bassist for Sleep/Om/Shrinebuilder... stoner/doom metal bands.
  5. I saw a band called Bitches at one of Steve's (Dangerboy) nights... bass and drums, with a MicroPOG and Russian Muff to fill out the space, sounded bitchin'!
  6. This guide is for a Jazz, should be useful: [url="http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showpost.php?p=7993927&postcount=534"]http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showpost.php...p;postcount=534[/url]
  7. Same here - the overdrive isn't very useable, the synth is fun but doesn't track fast enough, the octave is okay, the chorus , filter and compressor are great!
  8. Rock sound = Tech 21 VT Bass!
  9. Check out Wizard pickups, they are highly regarded on here and can custom wind a pickup to your needs if necessary.

    Distortion?

    Hmm, I would do the opposite and distort the mids/highs instead, keeping my lows nice and punchy. Nobody's mentioned it yet so I'll suggest a Sansamp BDDI / VT Bass or even a Behringer BDI21 (which is actually a pretty decent clone of the BDDI).
  11. Should be 34" long scale (if they have the purple silks). These are awesome strings, i have em on my P!
  12. Cheapest couriers I know of are parcel2go.com and interparcel.com.
  13. Check out this Verbzilla video - the Octo mode is glorious! [url="http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&VideoID=10323439"]http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseacti...ideoID=10323439[/url]
  14. I use flats too, Pyramid Golds. I started out on a Yamaha fretless with Status half-rounds (which feel just like flats but have a bit more zing) and when I got my next bass, a P with rounds, my missed the thump until I got the Pyramids on there.
  15. Bargain - this pickup sounds great. I upgraded my Squier VM to a Fender USA but miss the bark this pickup had for pickstyle rock. If you have a cheapo Squier then put this in it!
  16. Nice amps. This might get some GAS lit: [url="http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=464676"]http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=464676[/url] [url="http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=509278"]http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=509278[/url]
  17. It's better if you do a full edit so you can put sold in the subject title to make it easier to spot!
  18. Markl and Matty are after a PT2, might be worth sending them a PM!
  19. [quote name='JPS' post='558697' date='Aug 2 2009, 07:48 PM']Does anyone know whether the Behringer V-Tone BDI21 can be used just as a DI box, rather than a tone shaper and if so does it do the job fairly well? Cheers JPS[/quote] If it's a clone of the Sansamp BDDI then yes - it has an XLR out and if you have the pedal in bypass mode and the DI should be unaffected but still output your dry signal.
  20. I have a Carbon Copy, which does the subtle/warm thing very well, plus it can do crazy oscillation noises. However, if you're after a simple analogue delay I would go for the new [b]EHX Memory Toy[/b] because it's only £52 new! The Memory Boy has a couple more features and looks cool too. I used to have the Stereo Memory Man with Hazarai. Great pedal, but I had a bit of a problem with digital clock noise invading my signal, plus the blend pot on it reduces your dry signal as you add more delayed signal, which means you get a volume drop at some settings, especially apparent when setting it up as a basic looper. You should check out the [b]Digitech Hardwire DL-8[/b], looks like the best value digital delay / looper out there at the moment and it's missing from your list! I would choose this over the Boss/Line6 because it's true bypass, plus the Line6 apparently doesn't play well on a daisy chain.
  21. That's definitely one of the best solutions. Although to avoid phase canellation it's a good idea to filter the lows out of the dirty rig. I really like the se clips of the Orange Tiny Terror: [url="http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=560354"]http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=560354[/url]
  22. By the way here's a good demo of what it sounds like with a P-Bass:
