    Nope pretty cheap and effective software, there are normally special deals on [i]EZ Drummer[/i] if you look around. I have that with a [i]Groove Monkey[/i] plug in pack that works really well.

    [quote name='Pinball' timestamp='1352070861' post='1858506'] Anyone going that would be interested in stuff for sale as I could being along? [b]Aluminium Warwick bass case[/b] for £50? No keys unfortunately-I have too many cases. I think its Rockbass from memory. Original [b]SandsAmp[/b]-not mine but the guy wants £100 for it. A old P[b]eavy 15" BW cab[/b] that weighs a ton. £30 My [b]Crafter acoustic bass[/b] thats for sale on here £250 ono. Once I restring it with nylons I'll be taking it to work to play at lunch times and removing it from the for sale section. I'll probably bring my Sandberg or Crafter along as I don't have many pedals. Could bring the Carvin but I have the action set high as I like it that way. [/quote] ooh adding a great playing Spector Legend 4 advertised in the basses for sale section £250. Currently set up BEAD. Everything goes in ebay at the end of the month if no takers.

    A real beauty and a great player. This is as new with no significant marks other than the usual very light scotches on the back. It bass was up for sale and sold about 6 weeks ago but after receiving a deposit the buyer had to bail out as he was made redundant. Deposit refunded and back up for sale. Sign of the times I guess [attachment=123025:Spec4.jpg] [attachment=123026:Spec4 BK.jpg] [attachment=123027:Spec4 bod.jpg] [attachment=123028:Spec4 head BK.jpg]

    Congratulations to you and the person who bought it. It looks a great bass.

    Muse? Great band when they started out but have become more conservative as they moved on. If you go hack to some of their earlier stuff it was fresh and for a short time prog for its time e.g. Plug in baby and Hysteria still hit the spot for me. Thats why you hear the bass lines from Hysteria being played by young players in every other guitar shop you go into. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3dm_5qWWDV8[/media]

    RE: On my evo II, the compressor works after my liking, but the sub-octave is very slow to pick up the frequency - so much so that it gets to be an effect on its own on long notes - a quite nice effect I hasten to add. Yes I like that effect, makes a nice "fat" sound. I would prefer a Mark Bass but my use doesn't justify the expense. I suspect I would like Hartke amps as my favorite pedal is their "Bass Attack", which borrows from their amp modelling technology-not sure about their speakers for my bluesy sound. The only other that I fancy in the Ashdown price range is the Ampeg stuff because I like the sound.

    Get a decent microphone. If you don't sing you can do something else acoustic and shake your tambourine!

    After advice on this forum I got a Mag Evo2 and a separate 115T cab and am happy with it. They are solid and yet not to heavy to move around and they give a nice sound. I also like the amp adjustments. Simple and effective EQ control.

    Thanks Paul very generous indeed!

    Bumpity bump!
  12. Pinball
    Very nice! and if the pickups sound anything like the jazz on my XB your in for a treat. It has its own distinctive but very usable sound. I hope that we'll get a review?

    [quote name='Mornats' timestamp='1351192979' post='1848591'] As Pinball mentioned, I'll be coming along to this. If anyone fancies a go on anything in my signature, let me know and I'll make sure I'll bring it. If you're interested in buying either of my Bass Collections or my Dean, let me know too! [/quote] Well I always like the sound of your amp and Overwater

    Well it is a very pretty bass so it it plays as good as it looks you should be happy

    Thanks, I inherited those on my fretless bass and like them a lot. I'll be sticking with them on that.

    Hi, a bit of a strange one this. I traded this with Mauro quite recently. I wanted it for a music project that didn't happen. [i]Note: Mauro also bought it for a project that failed to happen. Obviously a lucky bass![/i] Still it is a nice playing instrument in "as new" condition. Not only that but it is a stunningly beautiful piece of kit. Unfortunately I don't have much time and can't see me ever having time to use it. I mainly play 4 stringers and could use a back up so if you have something to trade-either a similar quality electro/acoustic lead guitar or an electric bass fretted or fretless. It gets good user reviews on line so a bargain I think. See new ones here: [url="http://www.themusicroom-online.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=4387"]http://www.themusicroom-online.co.uk/produ...roducts_id=4387[/url] Someone out there will love this.

    [quote name='fretlessguy' timestamp='1351368243' post='1850644'] As far as ABGs go, I cannot tolerate the bright phosphor strings. Too much finger noise and way too twangy. I prefer light gauge flats or tapewounds for less stress on the soundboard. Be sure, especially with the tapes, that they can fit through the bridge if that is how they are installed on your bass. The acoustic basses with the big bridge pins are not usually a problem for thick tapewounds, but you might need to enlarge the slots in the nut. My current acoustic bass is a Carvin AC40 fretless with Fender tapes. Sounds wonderful. [/quote] Good advice I hadn't thought about strings fitting an acoustic style bridge. Nice guitar you have there. I have only ever seen it in pictures.

    I saw them two weekends in a row at Knebworth in "79", to he honest I wasn't that into them. Punk was fresh and made them seem outdated then and I was more interested in like Led Zeppelin. Those were the days!
  23. Pinball
    Sounds like "Rabbit" to me!

    Are they really children? Its too mechanical for me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gSedE5sU3uc&feature=endscreen

    [quote name='Angel' timestamp='1351280685' post='1849761'] I REALLY don't like the scratchplates, but it looks brilliant without them! lovely bass [/quote] +! and a very useful pickup combo. I would have been after this if I didn't have a Sandberg in the pipeline already.
