The bridge looks like it made from the tin foil you get round jam tarts.

He didn't work for Darkglass did he? Did he have a funny accent? 😁

Bought Andy's programmable sansamp and it was sent to me super quick despite it being the Easter Bank Holiday. A pleasure to deal with, buy with confidence.

Would pm you but basschat isn't letting me. Will try tomorrow. -
Thanks, he was the next port of call after this evening. Some people think its probably loose piece of wood or service sticker that has came loose and lodged itself against a speaker. I guess I'll know more later this evening.

Been using my barefaced six10 for the last year or so and it's been solid. The other night I noticed a high pitched farting / almost electronic distortion noise coming from the cab but only when I played F# / G. I was using plenty of drive that night but well within the limits of what the cab can take. I was beginning to chalk it up to a damaged speaker but thought it was strange that it only affected a couple of notes. Could this still be the case? At lower volumes this sound doesn't happen. I haven't had time to remove the grill and take a look but I was going to investigate this evening. Can anyone arm me with some information before I go and pop the hood? Cheers all.

What do you love about the Bass or Amp you choose to use ?
Jonse replied to lojo's topic in General Discussion
Began to use Japanese mustang basses almost exclusively: they're small and light and they're a real joy to play and throw about. I have large palms and shorter fingers and these basses fit just right. I use a Traynor Yba-300, it has 12 (count em, twelve!) EL-34 valves. When you get all that glass lit up you can't help but smile. Tone ain't bad either. -
I assume because Fosters is p*ss. (I don't mind it myself.)

What? No leopard print!?

I was unnecessarily riled up yesterday but thought through the situation logically and came out with a supportive decision. Normally I don't hold my tongue and tell it how it is, but I felt differently yesterday. This is what basschat is good for, I asked some "strangers", who may have been in a similar position in the past, their opinion and we all came out better for it when I could have caused an unnecessary rift between mates. I don't expect people to therapize me on here but it doesn't hurt to have a little perspective every now and again.

Sage advice, this is the route I took.
-
I was apprehensive about posting...!

Had considered this but going to do the supportive thing and lend them my equipment. Frustrating to think though that if they didn't expect to borrow my stuff they'd be screwed. Perhaps this time it's been bugging me because they're not very thankful.

Some context: I play in a rock originals band with my brother (guitar) and two other fellas (drums, singer/guitar.) We are all good friends. The drummer has another band which do acoustic/folk originals which he sings and plays acoustic guitar in and the singer plays bass in. (Sorry if that is confusing.) We have a practice room that both bands share, however the rock originals band pays the rent for this room and I leave some of my stuff in there. (backup bass, gig rig, pedals.) They have a gig coming up where some local bands are doing covers from a Fleetwood Mac album. I initially heard about this event when talking to a promoter in a local bar and put the rock originals band forward to cover a song (they said we weren't suitable so whatever) however I believe my drummer's acoustic band then went on to be accepted for this gig after I mentioned that we should play it with the rock group (okay that's fine, great.) Essentially, the drummer and bass player are now asking to borrow a practice amp of mine and my back up bass to play the gig with. Do I tell them they are royally taking the p*ss or do I let them borrow my gear? On a recent gig the bass player used my back up bass without asking (I told him it was okay to use it within the practice room if he wished, to save him lugging his own bass down.) I care very much about the rock originals band and I don't want to cause any bad blood between us. Sorry if this essay of a post is confusing but my brain is feeling fried here.

Yeah probably one of the worst videos I've seen.

If you are spray painting, don't make the mistake I did by doing it outside in a windy day. I got all bits of dirt and leaves stuck to the finish which absolutely ruined it. Did it in the garage the next time.

Generally drive there and drive back in my car. I have considered getting a van but it's surprising what you can get in a 206. Everything my band needs apart from drum stands. I let the drummer haul that.

Oh god, thanks for reminding me...

Lovely all valve Orange up for sale. I've owned and used this for a few months at band rehearsal but I'm moving it on since picking up a Traynor Yba-300 which I prefer. Cosmetically the amp is in excellent condition, there's a small nick in the tolex on the front (pictured) and that's about it. The rubber encased metal strap-handle on top shows sign of use, however it works fine. I've never trusted these personally and insisted on making a necessary improvement by adding the two large handles on the side (supplied by Ampstack.) These are mounted off-centre ensuring that the amp's centre of gravity remains balanced. With these handles the amp is (almost) a joy to lift, after all, it does weigh 26.5kg. Valves sound very good and deliver ample power, I'm not certain how old the valves are but there's still plenty of life in them - no pops or odd noises. Pots are smooth without crackle. There's a tatty vinyl cover included that does the job, I'll also include the relevant power and speaker cables. PAT test expired this January. Somewhat sad about moving this on as I really do like the sound however I can't justify owning two valve behemoths. I'll definitely miss the excellent valve saturation you get at higher volume, which the Orange delivers in spades. Will not ship, simply too heavy and fragile. I will consider driving reasonable distances to meet, or alternatively you can come try this amp through my Barefaced 610 if you fancy deafening yourself. I am in Leicester. Offers considered, no trades though thanks, too much gear already. Thanks for looking, Chris.

Another update. Finally learned how to use the diamond, b7k and b3k together properly. Couldn't be happier!
