Christ on a bike Ferret, what crawled up your arse and died this evening? Beerdragon - We had an interview with Taka on Bassworld, I will see if I can find a copy somewhere! Cheers ped

[quote name='agoulding' post='309730' date='Oct 19 2008, 11:32 AM'] essentially what ive got, i dont have my own pictures. my stuff is at the practise space. i occasionally use my Hartke 2.5XL with an additional pre-amp (if theres one lying around - usually ashdown) for extra ampage. i dont use many effects, i mainly use an EHX q-tron and various distortions. although im not a big overdrive or distortion fan. Ive been wanting an octave pedal for a while. I just can't settle on one desicion . Got any good choices i could look at?[/quote] I bet that sounds fierce. Cool setup, I wish I had the ability to move something like this around. As per octave pedals - there are lots of FX people in the other forum who will be able to help and give you an almost frightening level of insight but I for one used to enjoy the Digitech Bass Synth Wah pedal for octave effects - one 'mode' is a wah octave, but it is widely regarded as a superbly tracking octaver with the wah section disengaged. Plus you get the extra sounds too! Cheers ped

Oooof. Tasty.

Sorry to hear that :0( Still, better to have loved and lost... You might be able to find a similar one at some point, I had a real hankering for one myself a while back and unearthed a few. Cheers ped

Would you be able to get the yammie back, or have you lost track of it?

Nothing like being reacquainted with an old friend! Cheers ped

Very nice :0) That bridge isn't odd - its a Schaller 3D and one of the best designs out there IMO! Cheers ped

I would buy a glass! Does it come full of beer? :0)

Sweeet, keep the pics coming...

Stunning! You can tell just by looking at it that it plays like butter!

I just think Warwick basses are tremendously popular now (just look at the 'What do YOU play' thread poll) so they are very common. And I suppose they stick out like a sore 'thumb' .... eh? .... EH? Thankyouverymuch

[quote name='MoJoKe' post='310003' date='Oct 19 2008, 06:42 PM']Sorry guys, forget the hedgehog jokes, there is only 1 car for the jobbing musician, particularly if you also have to transport drummer, PA, you name it.... It can only be a Volvo estate... 240, 740, 850, V70... Very little difference in capacity, my flightcases go [b]across[/b] the back, and with the seats down about the same floorspace as a transit van! Well maybe not quite, but I have transported Amp, 410, 115 cab, AND the two top speakers and stands from our PA, and the Guitarist with his gear too.... Not forgetting mic stands, cable trunk and my three basses... My V70 does 40MPG on diesel, so not as juicy as you would have thought either... Oh and its a proper car, not an MPV or converted van, so comfortable too!! You can pick up an old one reasonably cheaply, safe in the knowledge the diesel engine is good for 200,000 miles Nuff said!![/quote] +1, my dearly departed 440 used to eat anything you threw in it.

Xanita swallows a case width-wise in the boot....

Sounds like a great event - I won't be able to make it but expect a full report from those that can!! Cheers ped

Kiwi you forgot that we ALSO squeezed in two more basses in hard cases (the Smiths)

I am about quarter of the way through it, so won't be long. Great read! Bassassin I will PM you when I am done! Cheers ped P.s Cheers angelboy for sending :0)

[quote name='OutToPlayJazz' post='308213' date='Oct 16 2008, 10:18 PM']You know Steve, I think you may be right... What's that jazz-alike at the front right, second row? Is it a Sadowsky?[/quote] That's a Sei I think

My comment was aimed at Ferret matey!

Up fer it

[quote name='7string' post='307457' date='Oct 15 2008, 10:54 PM']Looks very Warrior-ish.[/quote] +1 - cool looking bass, I like the headstock. The pickups look like Lane Poors! ped

Welcome to Basschat. I love those Line 6 combos. Tempted with the new 2x10 version... Get stuck in! ped

Welcome!!

Hehe well one day! Sounds like your method for the aforementioned sound is a winner, too. It's all about the dynamics if you ask me! Let me know when you make it big and I can think of a way to invoice you for something! Cheers ped

I have had two identical basses, one alder and one ash, and there was a marked difference. You are correct though, it is a small factor with all things considered but I think people who say it makes NO difference are as incorrect as those who think it makes ALL the difference. Nuts? pah... Gimme a zero fret any day ;0) Cheers ped

...But then ped gets no royalties!! Sort it out son!
