  1. Terror Bass + Barefaced = Awesome I run a Terror Bass into a Barefaced midget and is such a tiny loud rig with a great flat sound. I agree about slightly using slightly lower gain tubes, makes the DI more useable and gives a wider range of warm valve sounds before it all gets too grindy
  2. Just bought Thom's Stagg EDB, was unable to collect it in person but he was good enough to take it down to a gig whilst my mate was passing on tour. Seems a really nice guy and great to deal with.
  3. These are actually pretty good basses for that price range, I had the Milestone IV for a while (P bass version). Should get a nice bass out of it.
  4. Open to offer so if £70 seems to much drop me a message
  5. I have a Rockcase RC10613B acoustic bass hard case, like [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/rockcase_rc10613b_akustik_bass_koffer.htm"]this[/url]. Bought it and used it for one trip to London but no longer have a need for it because I broke the bass it was for (because I didn't use this case). Very good condition as it has lived the vast majority of its life in the corner of my living room, still have the key for it and everything. They are near as dammit £80 plus £10 p&p from Thomann, would like to make most of that back, does [b]£70 incl p&p[/b] (or less if you can pick it up in Glasgow) tickle anyones fancy?
  6. It isn't MDF, by the looks of it its cheap mahogany or similar (not an expert on woods but it is that style of grain). Might try gluing and clamping then adding splines as recommended in the "Guitar Player Repair Guide" but I don't hold out a lot of hope. Going to get a Stagg EDB to replace it anyhow since all this was ever meant to do was sound a bit double bassy.
  7. Right, saving funds for a new bass. Swithering between a new acoustic or a cheap EUB since the one I broke was fretless and was always meant to sound double bassy. Might still try and fix the Harley Benton myself at some point, nothing to lose but time, and if that fails I am sure I can smash it for some super cliche band pics
  8. [quote name='Musicman20' post='1316630' date='Jul 26 2011, 09:15 AM']Id be tempted to either buy a new one, or use parts off that one to 'make' another (although Im guessing this might not be possible?!). What was the price when you bought it? Anything under about £150 and id just not bother.[/quote] They are bout £125, I actually didn't pay anything for it, swapped it for an old battered peavey cabinet I couldn't off load couple of years back, so doesn't owe me much. Thinking this might be the perfect excuse to buy a 5 string acoustic instead.
  9. Came back from 2000 trees last week and I just opened my back to find the head has snapped off my acoustic bass! My own stupid fault for not taking the hard case but we couldn't quite squeeze it in the car with all the band gear and Glasgow to Gloucestershire is an uncomfortable enough journey as it is. Do you think the damage is fixable? Thinking about trying it myself with the help of repair books and a helpful tech in the engineering department at uni rather than paying too much since the bass is a cheap Thomann job and not worth a big repair bill.
  10. Ane bought my Lakland 5502 from me last year. Good to deal with, regular communication and prompt payment. Nice to know the bass is serving him well and is being put to good use.
  11. I second the UF-01 if you can find one, great pedal.
  12. I just use a few sheets of thin packing foam, for recording you could just put the head next to the cab so it isn't vibrating.
  13. Mine rattles quite a bit, think it could be the springs that hold the valves in. I put a cushion or some foam between the head and cab when I am playing at home and that seems to sort the problem.
  14. Great amp, loud little bugger too
  15. I will try and find out what it was designed for, condition wise I bout it for 20quid hardly used and havent found a use for it myself so it is not new but not noticably used. I will post pics later on.
  16. Like [url="http://www.studiospares.com/bags-rack+other/proel-rack-bag-budget-4u/invt/460760/"]this[/url] one Lightly used but not abused, used to have my Fafner in it but I put it in a wheeled case and then sold it. Looking for £35 + p&p. PM me with questions or if you need pics.
  17. Exactly what it says, £20 incl p&p PM me with questions or if you need pictures, I promise a quick response
  18. Got some pedals to shift: Boss CS-3, good nick with box - £30 posted Morley little Alligator volume pedal, hardly touched and I think I still have the packaging - £50 posted Behringer bass chorus, hardly used - £15 posted PM me with any questions or if you need pictures
  19. Barefaced are great, I have a midget (1x12) and that gives some serious oomf and low end so I can only imagine how nice the super twelve is.
  20. I unfortunately cannot afford this and I am sorry to see you sell it but for anyone interested in it I can say that Dingwalls are truly awesome and fanned frets are not only easy to adapt to but very quickly feel better than the norm.
  21. I have the pickups out of a squire precision special (PJ) if the P is any use to you. I may even have the rest of the electronics but they will need a good rewire. PM me if these are any use.
  22. I quite liked the few I played but I would recommend keeping an eye out for a 55-02 second hand as you can pick them up relatively cheap and they are awesome basses.
