la bam

Just in case any spector lovers are interested - I've an immaculate black cherry legend 4 up for sale in the for sale ads here.

Theres an old video somewhere on youtube where he details what input he had. But, yes, I suppose it could be slightly embellished. The disappointing thing with sire is now the cheap bass that were meant to be great quality but cheap are now more expensive, and theyve brought out a lesser (but still good instrument) in its place and price point. So the original bass has ended up a mid priced instrument. I would have though the aim was to see marcus playing great quality cheap basses.

To be fair marcus seems really enthusiastic about the bassss and had a hand in the design too. I think hes much more involved than just putting his name to it. He seems genuinely proud of them.

Hi all, Just wondered if anyone has any experience of playing these loud and live? The di sounds great but was just wondering if it replicates the valve feel or solid state thump live, rather than a sterile class d response? Also any comparisons to the mb800s or mb fusions?

Yeh, quite an eye opener that one. Not what youd expect at all. Great documentary though!

I agree. Great when you dont need them and everything runs smoothly. Utterly useless when you need anything from them or try holding them to account for not doing what you paid them for. The insurance is also a disgrace. As is the fact you pay them to do a job, and if they dont do it, then they keep your money anyway! Imagine ANY other job where you can get away with that. Also their t and c s also overwrite those of the individual couriers as you booked with the intermediary, not direct, so it's even worse. I really dont know what they do. Every courier now has their own site and collection and drop off points. Theres no need for them. The only use is a comparison site.

Those totp1990s are really interesting. Really experimental. The ones I've seen have: Cheesy pop, ballads, old 60s songs (I think from twin peaks), indie, rock, heavy metal, novelty records, party music, early dance music and mainstream dance music. I love em!

Sorry, the long term intention was to find out if it would work for on the road gigs where I could just plug the di into the supplied amp for stage monitoring only, with the di going to desk. I wouldnt know what amp would be supplied. I could always take an extra di box to get around it and be safe if needed, it's not a problem.

Thanks, I'm going to have to check with my amp. If I'm going to use something along these lines I dont want to find out if not di out to FOH.

Hi all, Just a quick question - otherwise I'll have to get the desk out and test later in the year... If I'm putting a di pedal (with no di out option) into the return socket on my amp to bypass the amps preamp section, does the amps di still work? Or will I get no sound at all? And if it does work will it be just the sound from my pedal, not the amps native preamp sound?

It's entirely in your court. If they're not responding relist it, whilst you wait and try and resolve. If someone buys it in the meantime, then tough for the initial buyer. Cancel the original transaction due to non communication. If the original buyer gets in touch then cancel the second listing. Dont wait a month before you relist again. If someone buys, then cant be bothered replying, then tough. They obviously know they placed a bid and what to expect. Priority for you is getting it sold. Dont put yourself at the mercy of people who will mess you around. It may be genuine. Some people are genuinely slow. Some guy tried going mad at me once because it took him a week to respond! I told him tough and it had since been sold. A days wait is fair enough, but any longer - especially as nearly everyone has ebay on their phone in their pocket - isnt acceptable.
