Ordered a P bass wiring kit from John on Sunday afternoon, it arrived first thing this morning (Tuesday). Great service and a tidy job. Thanks for your help John. Jezza

Band: Her way to hell AC/DC tribute Dead simple set up. Main bass - Ibanez SR750. Just started using this on the last 2 gigs as it`s a great piece of kit. Backup usually a BB1100s. Pedals - Korg pitch black, BD 121. I have just started using the Beringher for a slight bit of drive. Amp and cab - Trace elliott AH 600 7 band, Ashdown ABM Mini 2 x 10. All cables by Award Session. Been using them for 10 years and they havent failed yet.

Hold on a bit. Never mind the bass. A girl singing in a Prog band???

Hey Donny. If you are fitting the Fender copy Wilkinson tuners, you might have to file the plates down a bit on a couple of them. I had to do this to the last 2 on mine.

I have a SR750 and it is a cracking bass. Cost me £735 ish. Better than any Fender I have played. Mine has Norstrand designed pickups and they are fantastic so I imagine the Norstrand made ones on the SR1300 will be better. But it`s true about the 2nd hand value of Ibbys. Have you had a look at Cort basses? They manufacture most of the Ibanez basses and are very good value.

Sounds like the nut might not be cut properly? I would take it back and tell them to be honest, especially as it`s new. Nice looker by the way. lovely looking Cort as well. How good is it? Thinking of buying a 5 string one.

Radiophonic says: [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]The Nate Mendel seems particularly pointless - just an annoying amount of fake damage that you only notice if you look a bit? I'd still have one, but I'd want the body sprayed black! [/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]And thats what I have done. I was sick of the red colour, so I sprayed it satin black as I was looking for a black P bass. It sounds much better as well [/font][/color]

If you like the RW, I would get the J pickup added to it. It is a good looking mod on a P bass. I have 2 P/J basses and they are my current favourites.

You have got me worried now. I bought a TE AH 600, 7 band eq, made in the US, brand new last year. Are they deemed as unreliable?

Is there a big demand for an amp this size? And at Sweetwater the original price was $1399, so $1100 off? Designed in the UK and USA, made in China. Oh how the mighty have fallen

I bet that is going to cost quite a few shekels. Looks good though.

Stick an advert on Gumtree, then be prepared for all the replies from people that just waste your time. These places are full of dreamers and bedroom players but unfortunately sometimes it is the only way to meet people and you may be lucky.

I have a Trace Elliot 600 watt amp so thats like 1200 ordinary watts then I like the look and the sound of the amp, the power doesn`t mean much. It has green lights on the front panel as well!!

They are an older model. I had one a few years ago and it was ok but not as good as a VM or Classic Vibe but they are a good bit more expensive second hand. Do you like the sound and the feel of it? For £120 it could be a bargain.

It wasn`t really a Cliff bassline originally. It was played by on the record by Mark Evans or George Young depending whose story you believe. But Cliff is/was the man. To the op. The best version is on the Let there be rock film from Paris in 79 imo. I play in a dc covers band and we always start with it and as it starts with the bass, I love it! The most important thing as said above, is to lock in with the drums. Phil Rudd and Cliff are tighter than a nats chaf. Don`t add it too much either, they are simple lines, played very well. The amount of guys on Ya Tube I see adding in fills where there never was any Good luck!!
