    That is astonishingly inexpensive!

    I listened to that all the way through - that's rare for me when it comes to YouTube bass demos!

    [quote name='rapscallion' timestamp='1405779642' post='2505189'] Is that because it needs something to drive it? [/quote] Yes it needs a current amplifier (in theory anyway) - most spring drivers use a valve or op-amp working like a small power amp.

    You can't just connect the send and return direct to a 'naked' reverb tank, but no reason why you can'y use an outboard spring reverb unit. The only problem will be finding one!

    [quote name='paulears' timestamp='1405767577' post='2505056'] How about a hunting horn! [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/thomann_bbfuerst_pless_horn.htm"]http://www.thomann.d..._pless_horn.htm[/url] [/quote] Wouldn't it be great to pull it out at gigs and give the audience the horn. Oh wait...

    There was one listed on [url="http://aloewood54.rssing.com/chan-23797812/all_p271.html"]Gumtree[/url] for £40. I'm guessing it's a 50W 1980s model that will have been sold under various brand names, so that price would be about right.

    Nathan, just thought you should know that Parcelforce only cover musical instruments up to £100, although they will merrily take your money for extra cover! If you end up having to send the bass, I recommend going on Interparcel.com and choosing one of the UPS services.

    +1, love mine

    Rhythm. You can play really low and fudge the pitch, but if you haven't nailed the rhythm, you ain't doing your job!

    A 'no' from me, but it would suit an 80s electro tribute band.

    SOLD

    On hold for Dodge.

    [quote name='dodge_bass' timestamp='1405690899' post='2504386'] EBS dynaverb, Boss SYB-5 [/quote] Both nice pedals but neither on my wish list. Thanks for asking though! Anyone else with pedal trades?

    [quote name='dodge_bass' timestamp='1405681307' post='2504276'] Any interest in any trades for this? [/quote] Maybe - watcha got?

    [quote name='Kevin Dean' timestamp='1405671024' post='2504128'] ...if I need more bottom end I'll just have to add a 1 x 15. [/quote] There will be someone along in a minute to disabuse you of this notion

    Coin-operated PP3 battery dispenser for the guitarist's use.

    Surely that's just an oscillator fed into a delay unit. An oscillator circuit is an easy project build, even if you don't use a VHS case for the housing! The NE555 has been around for years ([url="http://www.maplin.co.uk/p/ne555n-timer-qh66w"]Maplin[/url] flog them for 99p) and there are loads of simple application circuits to be found online.

    Most people will be familiar with what this pedal can do - digital models of 9 types of delay, a 40-second looper, and the TonePrint setting that allows in-depth customisation of the delay model's parameters via free TonePrint software and a USB connection. For the full lowdown, visit the [url="http://www.tcelectronic.com/flashback-delay/"]TC Flashback page[/url]. Tiny mark on front panel, otherwise tip top condition. Comes complete with box, manual, and USB cable. Runs from standard Boss 9V adaptor (recommended but not included) or PP3 battery (not recommended unless you have shares in Duracell). Reason for sale: I always end up modelling the sound of my MXR Carbon Copy, which kind of makes this pedal superfluous for me! [b]£85[/b] delivered within the UK.

    Ventilation. Or put your double post in the gap

    [quote name='jezzaboy' timestamp='1405630365' post='2503931'] There is an often told story about a Family man bass lesson. Can`t remember who it was but they turned up all excited at Astons door, ready to soak up all the knowledge that the great man would share. They knocked the door, Aston opened the door and said "Nothing above the 5th fret!" and closed the door. A true story allegedly [/quote] I wonder how he managed to play 'I Shot the Sheriff' then - that goes up to the Eb at the 8th fret on the G string!

    [quote name='xilddx' timestamp='1405538606' post='2502907'] Then they get in an ensemble situation and wonder why they are not audible and keep upping the level to get heard. I don't think bassists do so much of that. [/quote] No, not much! Surely the topic of a thousand Basschat threads...
  24. JapanAxe
    If there is music playing while I am falling asleep, I can 'see' the pitches of the instruments a bit like that.
  25. JapanAxe
    God I love the look of these basses, except for the stripes in the headstock - it's just begging for a matching white face!
