Get yourself a Pro and rack it, have it at the end of the chain and then the noise gate will work nicely and voila! I know what you mean, I really dislike having lots of separate things to plug in//link up to each other/power outlets etc and went looking for an all in one solution. Cheers ped

Drives an ambulance eh? Now that's an interesting way to deliver gear quickly... I wonder if you can call an ambulance in a severe case of GAS? ped

The noise gate on the pod should clear it up for the most part, if you really can't live without the culprit. I can't stand any sort of hiss myself, I have a bit of OCD about it! Cheers ped

[quote name='Pkomor' post='386621' date='Jan 20 2009, 07:45 PM']Iv got 2 pairs of 'grado sr60s' they're great Hi-Fi headphones. i should imagined they'd be good for most things![/quote] I love my Grados for music but for bass by itself they really don't do very well!

I have tried various things with bass and have always found that Shure E2c's faithfully replicate what my bass sounds like - so when I am playing about at home I know what I hear is what will go to record in the studio. Cheers ped

Looks like a stormtrooper's portaloo

[quote name='Tinman' post='385243' date='Jan 19 2009, 06:41 PM']I'm thinking along the lines of a stereo power amp (using the V bass as a pre). You would have to fit XLR connectors to the amp end of your leads but I reckon that would work. [/quote] That sounds like a winner. The Vbass has XLR outputs too so could use those. Do you know of a semi decent power amp? Kiwi I looked at active monitors but their performance at low volume is quite variable and they can be expensive for a decent active set... Cheers ped

Cool vids, thanks a lot. I tried to embed them but failed miserably - the links you provided work great anyway. Cheers ped

Hi guys, Sort of looking for a stereo setup for lowish volume practice and gigging (will use IEMs for anything large so the amp needn't be very loud). I used to really like Hartke gear, so was thinking two 210xl cabinets would suffice. What head should I get though? Coming from my Vbass I will have two 1/4" outputs, left and right. I looked at the LH series amplifiers but don't think they would work, the Kilo looks like it would but possibly overkill... Is/was there a stereo version of the 3500? Used to love that thing. Maybe I should buy two?? I never really was that into amplifiers so need some pointers. Think I am settled on the 210XL cabs (they are the ideal weight/vol for me) so need some head pointers... Two 1/4" jacks, two speakers... fill the gap! Budget? Not sure really, maybe up to £400 for a head, less if possible. I also considered two combos but think that would be an expensive option... Cheers ped

Lol

Let's take it one step at a time ;0)

I like the more specific subforum idea... Will have a think and possibly implement the changes soon, certainly for amps/cabs/effects. Cheers ped

He just sent me this: hi mate sorry i just removed the fender p bass from its listing,,see some people askin so many stupuid questions and accusing me of fraudulent goods,,,i mean i dont take that crap from anyone,thats people trying to run your goods down and maybe get them for half nothing,,i know what i have in my possesion and im proud of it.thanks for your interest all the same Hmm.. right... he doesn't TAKE crap, just sells and talks it!

Hi folks, Over the years I have seen members come and go, millions of basses change hands and a few fads wax and wane. I wanted to see who, during this seemingly never ending process of gear buying/selling, has been fortunate enough to have found 'the one'. I don't mean your favourite bass at the moment, or the one you have had the longest, but the bass you will ALWAYS keep and use the most, the one that is 'your' sound. So have you got the bass for you? I know of a few people who have, so post pics and maybe a lil story or a bit of info about the bass that makes it special. It might cost a tenner, ten grand or anything in between... Cheers ped

Great stuff :0)

Just sent this: ------------ Hi there, I am interested in this item. Could you tell me where and when you bought the bass, weather it came with all the hardware shown (especially the ashtray covers) and the serial number (this will settle my mind about its age and exact model) Look forward to hearing from you ------------ Bear in mind my username on eBay is WWWBASSCHATCOUK !!!! ped

Good choices Yorks! I would probably go for: Mike Patton - Vox Me - Bass Christophe Godin - Guitar JR Robinson - Drums

Is it a slab front? I found slab bodies a bit uncomfortable myself. Cheers ped

I like the 'tennis ball' one he did! Awesome!

Lolz good one. I was ready to get all angry about the landlord! ped

Looks great (both versions). I like your approach to building, trial and error and a spirit for adventure. I wish I had the skills to play around like that, too. Cheers ped

Cool samples, great sounding bass.
