[quote name='waltsdog' post='843936' date='May 21 2010, 11:04 AM']Sold to me a few weeks back unfortunately It's an awesome bass and the trans orange looks completely different depending on the light conditions.[/quote] This is True! I had a trans red SR5 at the time too, and the amount of times at a gig I was playing, and I look down and due to the lights the bass looked red, I thought I'd brought the wrong bass! Haha! I still want first dibs when you come to sell that baby! Nicest Stingray I've ever played...Just wasn't using it and needed a 5 String again!

[quote name='dudewheresmybass' post='843971' date='May 21 2010, 11:37 AM']a fatfinger might help. it helps to eliminate issues with dead spots[/quote] I tried this once and all it seemed to do was move the dead spot down the neck. IE it was originally on a high D at the 7th fret, after putting it on it moved down to C.

Modulus Flea bass - Big Flake Silver - Lane Poor p/up
Higgie replied to Magnolia's topic in Basses For Sale
If only I could bring myself to part with one of my basses, I'd have this. But all the ones I own are keepers I'm afraid. I'm only down the road, too Good luck and have a bump -
Sounds like a dead spot to me. Most have them around the 7th fret on the G string, ie, the D note I had this problem too with my OC-2, and ruled out the frequency problem as I could play the 12th fret on the D string without it wavering. Try playing the same riff in a different position. Might help

It's so loose, it's tight, if you see what I mean!

Bumperoo! -
Awesome drummer. Did a lot of work with Peter Gabriel. Lovely tight solid feel, one of my favourite drummers actually

How's that Tiny Orange Phaser? Always wondered about one of them bad boys on Bass
-
That orange P is gorgeous. The Jazz is even more so! Bump for some beautiful bits of wood...

[quote name='benzies123' post='834767' date='May 11 2010, 10:11 PM']How many layers does that looper do? I'm assuming only one but if it's any more I am very interested. Cheers[/quote] [quote name='pantherairsoft' post='834869' date='May 11 2010, 11:20 PM']It's a little hard to explain... I've never really got tongrips with it. The dial adjutant the level of feedback, it's very subtle until you hit the 'feedback point' which seems to be different for each pedal. When you hit the spot so to speak it makes some crazy swirly sounds or huge screams and bird songs for envelope filter. I'd say it sounds like multiple layers when you crank it up. If you want a more technical description of how it works in terms of layers I'd drop 'umph' as PM as he built it.[/quote] I have a feeling benzies123 might have confused the feedback looper with an actual sound on sound looper like the Akai Headrush or something. What a feedback looper does is feed the output of whatever's in the loop back to the input, ie, delay being infinitely delayed by itself or flanging a flanger etc. It yields some pretty crazy sounds depending on what you put in there!

That Stingray pickup came from me, didn't it? I'm glad I could be of assistance in the making of this beautiful bass! Get some sound clips up!!

ToneFactor sold, and BassBalls also sold pending payment. -
I've had this with my Dad's LM2 before. I think it's something to do with the amp protecting itself from a surge of power to the input. It trips out, you turn it off and back on and it's fine again. Try turning the input down and the output up a little bit. I was worried the first time it happened to me as I thought I was gonna have to fork out to get my Dad's amp repaired but after reporting it back to him he said it had happened to him a few times too!

Hi all, Bit of a long shot this. I sold my DB112 a little while ago, and decided to keep my remaining NT just for home use and small practices instead of selling, but find that I'm really missing the tweeter. Just by any chance does anyone have a dual DB112 setup that you leave the tweeter off on one of the cabs? My cab is finished in chocolate thunder, and is in mint condition, with it's original padded cover. Ideally I'd like to do a straight trade for a DB112 (in whatever finish, it doesn't bother me!) but would sell outright for [s]£260 collected or + postage.[/s] *SOLD* Cheers James

[quote name='The GroovyPlucker' post='831343' date='May 8 2010, 12:16 PM']Thanks for the testimoney Higgie, how you getting on with the DJ5, any videos up on your site yet, would like to see it in action, Thanks again, Mark[/quote] Hi Mark Whacked the strings on that you included with the Bass tonight in time for my gig - She absolutely sings! No vids as of yet, but I'll be sure to try and record something in the next few days
-
It crossed my mind, however driving a nail through the circuit board of a pedal didn't seem too appealing
-
I can vouch for it being a beautiful Jazz bass Richard. I've played this baby and it's absolutely awesome! AFAIK they're worth about £650-700.

Bought a DJ5 from Mark and just want to say he is an excellent seller and great guy all round. Don't hesitate to do business with him! Thanks again Mark...Still loving the bass. Cheers, have a bump! James

[quote name='D-L-B' post='822458' date='Apr 28 2010, 09:26 PM']Clean the rubber bases with methylated spirits or denatured alcohol and the sticky back velcro stays on there much better. I find the 2cm wide strips of stick on velcro from Wilkinson to be really good. Don't absolutely cover the bottom of the pedal with velcro either else it grips too well and will obviously tear off, you only need a couple of small bits to hold the pedal in place. [/quote] Sorry for the late reply. Thanks very much for your advice, will give it a shot today. Just out of interest would white spirit work? I've got some here, otherwise its a trip out to the shops

I bought both these cabs and am soooo impressed with them. One of these babies at 8ohm (ie only getting half the power from my amp) is louder and bassier than 2 8ohm DB112's was. I've only ever had to use one cab where as I sold my dual 112 setup because I wasn't loud enough! I found myself in the same situation as Gareth - the tone of the 12's was just perfect...but with one problem: I wasn't loud enough. My solution? Get MORE 12's!

[quote name='JackLondon' post='830822' date='May 7 2010, 05:00 PM']You can always get an effects loop pedal [/quote] That will still go into the front of the amp though, not what the OP was asking at all.
