Feedback prevention - F-its alternatives?
knicknack replied to Jakester's topic in EUB and Double Bass
@lobematt Do you have any form of High Pass Filter in your chain? My first port of call would be to tweak the amount of sub going on, followed by switching the phase (There's always a better way round, depending on the room/PA). Loved my Fits with my old bass, but so far haven't felt the loss (since i changed basses and couldn't get any) thanks to the above. -
He has indeed... is aging them differently these days!

Another vote for Orchid Electronics... stunningly good value and always come out top whenever I shootout DI boxes for reproducing exactly what is put into them, low end all intact with a strong signal level. The oldest one in my case must be 17 years old by now and still delivers perfectly.

I'm selling this Warwick Rockbass Streamer Standard on behalf of one of my students... she needs something a little smaller! As far as I can see it's a mid-2000s instrument. Passive four string with twin MEC humbucker pickups. I have replaced the tuners with proper Gotohs as the Warwick ones were failing, a pretty well documented issue that won't be a problem on this. Gigbag included, postage possible, and I have it here so happy to answer any questions! 4.2kg (9.4lbs) .

Lovely to put a face to a name in the depths of Fleet Services! Great dealings, top notch communication and an all around top-notch buying experience 👍

The rumours are true.... this quirky little bass is now in my hands! Had great fun playing it all evening, it definitely has a place in the collection.

2 of these GLXD16 Sets available, £325 each posted. 1 SOLD Wireless receiver with tuner built in, by miles the most reliable and user friendly wireless system I've used to this point. One receiver has velcro on the base, and one receiver has it's little rubber door missing (Fairly common I think!) All in great working order. Choice between two cable lengths for the first buyer!

I finally had the chance to play one of these this weekend... what a cool little bass. Posted in the Wanted section but thought i'd mention it here just in case anyone is looking to move one on!

Double bass luthier in South West required. Any ideas?
knicknack replied to spyder's topic in EUB and Double Bass
I had the same experience with Devon Strings... another shout out for Ben Taylor in Southampton, he's really excellent! -
I also love the Rumble 500... I did move to a Rumble 800HD and 210 cab, for two reasons: 1, so i could use the head with my bigger cabs when wanted, and B, because the DI on the 500 is affected by the master volume, which it isn't on the 800. Worth knowing going in! The speakers really evolve once played in, I found both sounded a little tight when new, and opened up considerably.

If you do decide to go down the Fender 810 route Absolute Music in Bournemouth have an Ex-Demo one that could probably be negotiated on. I have one here too and would always be happy for you to try it if down my way. I promised myself I could have an 810 as long as I never need to ask for anybody's help with it, and i can easily handle it by myself. The Bassman head is probably more awkward!

Sonic Research Turbo Tuner mini may be slightly smaller than the PT mini? Really great! Honestly you can't go wrong with the Polytune mini though. Preferred it to the Pitchblack mini when I had both.

Tom & Will Double Bass Bag... here's the info from them! £240 includes UK Postage. This bag is really great, and I've not found anything I prefer. However, my bass is a small 3/4 and I've managed to find something that's a tighter fit and therefore easier to move around. I doubt it'll last as long though! I would say the Tom & Will sizing suits the larger 3/4 scale basses like some of the old German ones I've tried belonging to members of this forum. Well padded, handles galore and plenty of pockets for accessories. Zips seem made to last. Only showing a bit of wear on one of the lower corners, shown in the photos. Collection welcome.

I use one of these and it’s a perfect fit and lightweight! I’ve lined mine with some neoprene for a little extra protection.

Ultimate Support AX48 Stand with all the trimmings... this bundle was about £240 when I last checked, and only seems to be available for more as individual parts now. Everything folds away into the stand for portability. Extremely stable for smaller synths and larger stage pianos. Stand was a pre-covid purchase so hasn't seen a whole lot of use at all, a few scratches here and there. The included bag is showing signs of wear at the ends as they always do. Also comes with the Mic Stand attachment as shown in the photos. Collection from Bournemouth preferred (I do travel a bit so feel free to ask). I do have the original box so postage is a possibility, but it's length makes it quite awkward I'd imagine!

@Alfiewould you be able to PM a contact for Fender UK? I'm having some amp issues myself! (Not the Bassman thankfully)

Bartlett Double Bass Microphone £150 - *SOLD*
knicknack replied to knicknack's topic in EUBs & Double Basses For Sale
@Beedster Maybe we should take it to PM! Give me a shout if you have any questions 🙂 @GraynoteI've not tried the Clarus but I'd imagine a Felix plus a power amp would be putting you in very similar territory. I just tend to look for something I really like when set flat, and tweak a little from there! -
Here's how the M88 looks on an Ampclamp:

I'm considering trying the Yamahiko at some stage, although i've been happy with the Full Circle so far in a mix. Here's a shot of the Bartlett in place. I like the ease of use, no faffing with stands/clamps etc. If you are looking for something budget friendly to fill the Schoeps role, I can highly recommend the Line Audio CM4. I use it for recording all the time, and have used it live in very low volume environments! -
I've had mine around 4 years now... I must say that the new insert that is available (and i think stock on the current model) makes this case far more useful. I do alot of supports, and quick in and out gigs, and usually don't change basses often during a set, so this really hits the spot. Far easier than carrying two cases around for me, and i never have to worry about my instruments at all.
