Well I'd keep the L2000 and the P as a back up. Also keep the Lakland for a while longer to see if you play it. Note: Peavy T40's aren't that rare and are heavy.

Dorset and Somerset Bass Bash 2014: Post Event Critique
Pinball replied to yorks5stringer's topic in Events
[quote name='Mornats' timestamp='1390521650' post='2346524'] Put myself and possibly Pinball down for it (providing we're free that weekend). I'll bring my Yamaha TRBX - I'm sure a few of you are keen to try those out and also my basses that I will have for sale (I'll pay the Basschat £20 selling fee before I go though.) [/quote] I'll take my Farida Hypersonic and maybe my Sandberg or Surveyor, depending on car space and what others are bringing -
Keyboard player wanted to join a newly formed band for a developing project; writing, recording and gigging. We need a keyboard player to generate soundscapes as well as more traditional strings and lead lines. Enthusiasm counts over ability and vocals would help. Gear is not be an issue to begin with. This exciting new project is already producing interesting material in an alternative/industrial/rock/pop kind of style.

Thanks I'll bear all that in mind

[quote name='iamtheelvy' timestamp='1390318721' post='2343985'] Yep, not a big fan of loose pedals. Plus the fact that the Whammy V is built like a tank - expecting the same from the Bass model. [/quote] As someone who is thinking moving on from my "built like a tank" Morley, the idea of solid build and no moving parts is defiantly worth a look.

Hope the link works. Can you see the birds? https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=732177180127212&set=a.161943097150626.37513.148172415194361&type=1&theater

That moment you realise there's no point in trying different basses...

[quote name='badboy1984' timestamp='1390309525' post='2343798'] Having multiple basses always bother me. Not because I don't like the bass, is I always use the same bass for gig. This is because the band required that particular sound, so therefore that particular bass is always getting use. [/quote] I found this after spending a lot of time finding a nice bass with a tome that I loved, that sound just wan't right in the band. I now have a set up that I really like. Having said that if your a creative player then having a few nice instruments to play can inspire you to push the boundaries a bit. Nothing wrong with that -
[quote name='Bassnut62' timestamp='1390308092' post='2343773'] I would use this order: wah, compressor, distortion, chorus, delay only cos I like to have option of untamed and tamed wah, and because compression works well in front of dirt pedals to keep it focussed. modulation stuff is usually best last in chain, because using wah or distortion on an already modulated signal can get a bit messy. however, if there are any rules, they're there to be broken....so I say juggle your set up and find what works best for you. [/quote] Thanks, that kind of fits with my ideal set up as I'm right footed so having the Wah on the right feels natural. All my pedals are true bypass (I forgot I also intend to get a tuner in there too). I'm still waiting for a couple in the post
-
Setting up a pedal board with Wah, distortion, Flashback 4x, chorus. Where do I put the compression? At the moment I'm thinking last but have yet to try it.
-
Thanks, I ordered some heavy duty. I'm going to re-do the board rather than mess around

Lots of people seen to use WD 40 on electrics and there are three problems with it. 1. if its some thank that heats up you have trouble 2. over time it gets thick and gunky 3. It seems to attract dirt and dust so in the longer term is a bad move Its a short term or emergency solution at best I know this from working on pinballs I would advise trying a foaming electrical cleaner to get it thoroughly clean. If that doesn't work just change the switch

Hi a bit of a strange one this. I have a Gator "The Bone" pedalboard. It appears set up for velcro but none of the velcro I currently have seems to stick to it. Can anyone advise me to the stuff that I need and where to get it?

Keep an eye on this John, It was advertised on this forum and £15 postage it may fall into your budget. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/281243039905?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649

[quote name='alyctes' timestamp='1389738554' post='2337487'] I keep reminding myself it's got too many strings... [/quote] [quote name='Gust0o' timestamp='1389739478' post='2337509'] At that price, surely you could forget such a minor flaw? [/quote] Think of the B as a thumb rest and your sorted. It almost plays alike a 4 anyway

[quote name='patrikmarky' timestamp='1389466586' post='2334495'] Gigs this bass last night...decided to keep...think this is a very understated bass...it may be a bit to "metal" for some folks...I've had most basses from stingrays ,Warwicks,spectors,shuker,sandberg,mayones and more..and this competes well..maybe I need to join a metal band... [/quote] A good move I think. They are great basses and are not just for metal or ready rock. I'm love Schecters and have had a number of leads and a Stiletto Custom bass. I currently have a Ultra custom lead guitar. The materials, parts and build quality are good across their whole range-unlike a number of similar brands. They are marketed and the young metal market, which has proved very successful as they shift a lot of units. This is reinforced by the fact that most models are 35 inch scale and armed with EMG's. My experience is that they don't produce rubbish and that their production standards are consistently high, subject to the price of the instrument of course.
-
I bought some leads that were exactly as described. A very fast and easy to deal with good communication, in fact so fast that I hadn't got around to telling my other half that the leads had been posted and she looked a little disappointed when she found out what was in the package. I can't think why. Highly recommended Thanks

Congratulations. After having tried one I have a BB1025x on my hot list once I get some cash together
