  1. Admittedly my first compressor was a DOD milkbox (which was a noisy piece of crap) but I then moved on to the Aphex Punch Factory, which was ok, very transparent, good for the price. I now use a Demeter Compulator (not alot though, I don't find myself using compression live) and couldn'y want anything more from a compressor. Compressor GAS has been vanquished for me!!
  2. That looks similar to the one my dad had made a few years ago, except his was Mk II and had an ebony fingerboard and matching headstock. Absolutely beautiful bass mate, and if I could afford it I would buy it!! Good luck with the sale.
  3. You can see my band board at the bottom of this pic. I've currently taken the P+C off, as I only used it for one song, and it means I can fit the tuner on and not have to pack it seperately.
  4. Zak - Thanks, it sounds epic too! I love this rig! Silverfoxnik - Thanks alot, the P Bass is lovely. I picked it up on here a few months ago. It was an ABSOLUTE bargain. It was on here for a little while, and no one had picked it up yet so I couldn't believe my luck! I think people were put off by the fact it didn't have the original pickup. But put it this way - My dad has a JV P also, and he swapped his original pickup out for a Dimarzio after using my one for a couple of gigs!! Manos - That is a gorgeous bass. I'd love to have one like that to match my 4!! Want to trade? You can keep your white pickup and pickguard - They look great but I'd prefer the pickguard and pickup from my 5 on the orange!! Thanks for all the comments guys
  5. Baby turn around and let me see that sexy body go BUMP BUMP BUMP
  6. I own both editions and can vouch for their quality. Simon did a great job with both these books. It'll be a happy day for bassists everywhere once they become available again!
  7. [quote name='thisnameistaken' post='478918' date='May 4 2009, 12:26 PM']To be honest I haven't tried anything, it's mostly my OC-2 that is temperamental, and it's usually in a loop so I don't need to switch it on and off. It might just be a dirty switch. Anyway enough hijacking of the for-sale thread. Sorry, OP.[/quote] If it makes you feel any better my OC-2 does this too
  8. Nice Bass Si...You'll regret it!!
  9. I posted it to mistahbenn and that was the last I heard of it!
  10. Good price on that Yamaha...I'd have it if I had any cash Good luck with the sale though mate!
  11. I like the Fretless P! I have a bass room...but it also doubles as my bedroom

  13. [quote name='megazap63' post='472871' date='Apr 26 2009, 07:27 PM']No problem Higgie, I've not taken it personally, however I'm sure you know the feeling when having to part with a rare piece of gear.....you'd like to feel that you get a good price to make up for having to sell it. However, I would be prepared to drop the price. This is after consideration of the following: 1. current tough economic times and 2. someone has pointed out one for sale (albeit in the US) for a lower price. Also, as a newcomer to this Forum, the last thing I'd want to do is overcharge or rip off others. The set price was after discussion with the Bass Gallery in Camden (where the pedal is currently on consignment). If anyone in/near London would like to check it out they should drop in there, run it through its paces and then get back to me if definitely interested or making an offer. I'd then be happy to agree on mutually satisfactory price. Finally Higgie, if you managed to get 2 original Mu-trons for £400.....man, you got the bargain of the century!! I paid US$500 for one in mint condition several years ago (it was, admittedly, BNIB). Talk again sometime[/quote] I do know the feeling, very well in fact! I've lost some really nice stuff for peanuts in the past. The Gallery, while a good shop and resource for trying high end gear, are very expensive, so I don't blame you for going with what they'd put it up for sale for. Yeah I did luck out on that one, one of them even had the PS-1 power supply with it $500 is still a really good deal for a BNIB one. I've seen them go upwards of $900! Finally, good luck with the sale Oh and welcome to the forum! You'll have an awesome (but expensive!) time!
  14. It's nothing personal mate, really, but you won't get £400 for this. I'm just trying to help you get a sale by suggesting you drop the price a bit. You say it's a "forced" sale, but you won't get the money you need by over charging people! Also, just FYI, I up until very recently owned 2 Mutron III's (both original at that) and I paid less than £400 for the both of them.
  15. Ok, used the rig for the first time last night, and it was totally AWESOME! Completely spectacular in every sense. Fat pumping bass...I had my reservations about whether or not 2 single 12's would pump out enough low end in a band situation, and I'm so delighted to be proven wrong. Absolutely thunderous rig. Can't see me wanting to change it for at least a couple months!
  16. Mate, adding another 112 will be all you need. Seriously.
  17. Good luck with the sale mate, but at £400 "FIRM", I think you'll need all the luck you can get.
  18. [quote name='Gunsfreddy2003' post='472593' date='Apr 26 2009, 11:18 AM']I thought that being able to mix the amount of dry/wet signal using the effects loop would have been helpful for envelope filters and fuzz etc? Mind you have heard the awesome tones that you get so not going to doubt you! Have you ever used the loop on the Aggie? Mark[/quote] Thanks for the kind words I tested it briefly with my OC-2 using Oct 1 knob on full, and everything else off, using the amp to blend clean and octave, it sounded nice, but not as good as running it into the front end of the amp. I really think it's just a case of experimenting with what you have, but IME i've never had a problem running any effect into the front of my amp, I've NEVER felt the need to have anything in the amp's loop.
  19. I use this head and I run everything straight into the front end. Sounds great to me. It's usually only modulation/delay that goes in the effects loop anyway, envelope filters should be kept up front IMO.
  20. I honestly wish I could keep it, because it's so versatile and has a wealth of features. The only reason I didn't sell my other delay is because it would be too hard to get hold of one again, I definitely want another in the future. If for some reason you don't get on with it, I'll have it back
  21. This has been posted before, but here's mine: The DJ5 belonged to OBBM (the one with the mirror guard in his post is the same bass seen here) and now belongs to PauBass. The DJ4 is still with me
  22. The cab came in today. Legion, our rigs are virtually identical except for I have the SC amp Didn't want to hijack your thread so check my Porn thread out if you want to see the collection
