  1. Atlansia do some cool ones [url=https://ibb.co/hNUs8v][/url]
  2. I believe you can do this on a bass whammy but I can do the same in my VB99. Sounds cool with an octave below at the same time (herd of elephants) I'm sure there are other octave up pedals I have seen but can't name any I'm afraid!

    Vigier Porn!

    Almost matching. Really nice. Have you recorded anything with either of them? I may have some exciting Vigier news soon, watch this space.

    Vigier Porn!

    Very nice. They really changed the shape with the series 3 basses didn't they? I remember seeing that one on eBay, didn't someone try installing a pick guard?!
  5. I think it was bought by Al Embic
  6. Here's what Elixir say: [color=#000000] [font="sans-serif"][size="2"]Info from Elixir: Thank you for bringing it to our attention. We[/size][/font][font=sans-serif][size=1] are aware of the issue. Their new packaging is designed to make it significantly more difficult for someone to counterfeit our packaging. The counterfeit strings themselves offered here are invariable low quality uncoated strings. [/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000] [font=sans-serif][size=1]Please can Chris add this link to the Bass Chat thread or provide it to their community. Buyers have the ability to report sellers of counterfeit goods. They would be doing everyone in the e-Bay community a favor – and help other bass players not to fall for inferiour quality product.

  7. Fiancée sounds very close to finance doesn't it? Similar interest rates too
  8. [quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1486286280' post='3230503'] So you've never sold using PayPal and have a buyer claim it never arrived? PayPal simply refund back to the buyer out of your PayPal account. So you're down a bass and no cash. If you've already withdrawn the funds it gets billed to your bank account details or credit card. [/quote] No, because I always send insured and signed for. Not that I sell very often, to be honest, and with bass gear I usually chat to the person on the phone if I can't meet them in person.
  9. Pretty annoying most bands do one or two UK dates and hundreds across the states. UK bands, too.
  10. I'm getting married in a couple of months so I'm going to print this out and leave it kind of in the house

    Vigier Porn!

    We've been talking about Vigiers elsewhere so thought it was time to bump this - I know there are more Vigier players out there!! Final update of my two [url=https://flic.kr/p/M24WsS][/url][url=https://flic.kr/p/M24WsS]Vigier Passion #733 (1988) and Vigier Arpege #93 (1986)[/url] by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/chiscocks/]Christopher Hiscocks[/url], on Flickr
  12. You need to show your basses here!! http://basschat.co.uk/topic/160340-vigier-porn/page__hl__vigier__st__60 They're my fave
  13. It's a very flexible preamp for sure and really musical sounding. There's a lot of difference between the two pickups even though they're so close togerther. The preamp has been this way since the early 80s right up to the series IV basses.
  14. [quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1485814372' post='3226985'] Isn't this more a matter of never pay by PayPal Gift unless you really trust the person you're sending it to? This is because you're doing the equivalent of sending cash. [/quote] Well, yes, if you're sending money to a family member or something. Never for selling something.
  15. Two rules to live by Never use PayPal Gift Always ship insured to full value You can't go wrong with the above but people still ignore them.
  16. Sweet. I've got kiwi's Hexavalve here but haven't really tried it yet
  17. [quote name='spectoremg' timestamp='1485642136' post='3225595'] Probably should have explained the thread better. It occurred to me that by the time my tone gets to the business end I've used the controls on my bass, an mxr at my feet and the controls on my amp. It all seems daft. [/quote] I thought the same, ended up using my Vbass into a power amp, weighed nothing and sounded brilliant. Still have the power amp, it's been very reliable. 400w a side and 1u.

  18. Good idea, I've just sent them an email so will let you know if anything materialises.
  19. Just listened to it, think it's pretty cool. I'm getting more into electronic funk so good timing. Nice tight bass bits in the chorus. Thumbs up. When's the album out?
  20. [quote name='MisterT' timestamp='1485387991' post='3223694'] As long as it's wet & warm - deal [/quote] As long as they let us have a plug. For all I know our stand might be a cubicle in the bogs
  21. [quote name='MisterT' timestamp='1485339734' post='3223188'] Missed the discount like a proper Charlie. Sunday booked. I therefore propose to drink £4's worth of tea at the BC stand. [/quote] I'll bring my finest loose leaf FTGOP1, should be about £4 a cup
  22. I'd say it's largely due to a low action and little neck relief combined with a heavy right hand technique. You should be able to get the sound you want acoustically before you even get plugged in.
  23. [quote name='owen' timestamp='1485119860' post='3221372'] I got the strap. Don't get me wrong, I would love a board but my inertia is crippling and this will arrive all ready to go! [/quote] Yeah why not! Looks great.
  24. [quote name='owen' timestamp='1485118691' post='3221345'] I am a total lightweight. This popped up on the IEM thread and it looks like less hassle than carrying a board around so I am going to try it. [url="http://www.woojer.com/strap/#StrapSpec"]http://www.woojer.com/strap/#StrapSpec[/url] [/quote] Looks great. Will it get in the way with your bass top horn though? I'm still loving my Pleasure Board. I use it as a sub when playing music through my office hifi. Really gives you that extra dimension. Let us know how you get on with the Woojer; did you buy the vest or the strap?
