[quote name='Jam' timestamp='1337467334' post='1660609'] Looking for a new singer, have found someone locally who plays bass and guitar as well as singing, and on their profile they have to state their proficiency on their instruments. Guitar: Intermediate, Vocals: Lead, Bass: Expert. As far as I can tell from their blurb they've only been playing bass about 4/5 years...I've been playing for twice that and I still feel like a complete beginner... Stupidly, I'm quite annoyed! What about you guys, do you consider yourself an "expert"? [/quote] I think that anyone who considers themselves as an expert musician, especially on the internet is asking for trouble.

Ah! Yes of course Mr.F! I'd not taken that in to account, it sounds logical!
-
So yes, in essence, a 4x10 could be split in to two vertical 2x10 cabs. One 'stack' would be filtered.
-
Looking at Barefaced, the '69er cabinet seems to address those phase problems. I'd assume that with the right sort of crossover, it'd be possible to *improve* the situation with a 4x10's vertical speaker arrangement?

Ahhh, pete mentioned headroom already lol! Cool! -
Yes, I had a pair of EMG P40s in my Tobias bass running off it's already installed preamp and 9V battery. Yes it will work fine. The only thing I can think of that could be a problem in terms of the EMGs, is that they are a high output pickup and *could* clip the preamp. Though this certainly hasn't happened for me. For added reassurance, see if the preamp cam run at 18v as the EMGs certainly will. This will give you added headroom and obviously, a longer time between battery changes.

Hi, The answer will be a very simple one. I'm afraid that I won't even need to listen to the video to answer it. Simply, in the recording process there is so much more going on than just the bass and the preamp. Compression, mix EQ and mastering will make such a big difference to a clean sound, you may as well just plug straight in to the desk in comparison. In this case, the Hellborg preamp is pretty much a channel strip anyway, so it's probably not adding any more to the sound than a decent studio desk EQ would anyway. That said, it certainly wouldn't be taking anything away from the rest of the signal chain.

Dave is a top chap and is a good friend of mine. Buy with confidence! -
You can find me on Twitter, Facebook, Youtube and Soundcloud as DoodOnBass. My soundcloud doesn't have anything on it yet, but I have quite an exciting band on the way that will no doubt make full use of my currently empty profile!

[quote name='walbassist' timestamp='1337343950' post='1658489'] Your video helped me pull the trigger Dan! [/quote] Excellent! I'm really pleased! It was a joy to review that stack too.

A lil bump. -
How was the low end in comparison to the Aggie Mr.F?
-
On the subject of phasing, (expecting that all of the speakers are running full range and not crossed over) i wonder how many would actually notice that on paper at least the 'design is flawed'. Frankly, with years of 4x10 and 'non-audiophile' bass rigs, I don't think most would notice. Infact, it might make a nice sound. I'd like to hear it too.
-
Surprisingly though, Tec Amp are well known for using the best speakers they can get their hands on for speaker cabinets. B&C cones go in to these I believe. I've owned Tec' predecessor cabs and they sound amazing. Thomas Eich, owner rebadged the old Tech SoundSystems company to Tec Amp with a complete facelift for the product line. Shame really, as i loved the old design! Tec do some nice kit. I'd be rather happy to own one of their cabs ;0)

Hi all! I bought this pedal from mcnach recently in an effort to find a 'band pass' distortion pedal that i could use instead of my Ampeg BSP rack. Whereas it is a superb pedal, it's not quite what I was after (needed to test with my signal path) and thus would like to pop it back up for sale. Mcnach looked after it very well and thus there's not a mark on it. I've had it out the box in my front room a few times to compare to my BSP, so back in the bags and box it goes, with all the manuals etc. I ship insured and will be happy to despatch in the UK for £50 all in. I believe this is a 'rip your arm off' bargain. Check out the ashdown videos for what the pedal sounds and looks like. I may take trades for the right distortion pedal. I just need to figure out what the 'right' one is Drop me a PM and I will get the pedal out to you. Doooooood

I've just advertised my spare FC-50 MIDI controller for sale for £55/delivered. It's built like a brick out house and will give you access to those patches. The FC-50 I am keeping is doing the same job with TC effects unit. PM me and we can sort something out sir!

If the bass is for sale, you will need to specify a price as per the T&C's of the marketplace too -

I'd be happy to volunteer. Do you have a preferred email address to send information to? I also write the Bass department for Guitar Interactive Magazine over at www.iGuitarMag.com. One of the largest online guitar magazines. -
[quote name='thinman' timestamp='1336762422' post='1650810'] This is where I saw the comment: [url="http://www.jamirotalk.net/interviews/paul.html"]http://www.jamirotalk.net/interviews/paul.html[/url] [/quote] Pasting the comment for visibility: Do you have preference between 4 or 5 string bass’? Paul: I do think 4s usually sound better. The E on a 5 doesn’t sound as good. Period. However I like playing 5 and enjoy having the option of the extra range of low notes without detuning.

Hi All! So, a little while back I asked for a MIDI controller in the wanted section and was pretty chuffed with the amount of responses I got. Infact, in a strange turn of circumstances, buying and selling a few bits and pieces I have ended up with two FC-50 pedals! Thornybank here on the forum sold me one that I am hanging on to and the other is now surplus to requirement. I'll get some pictures up later. I've tested it and it works perfectly. It does have the odd sign of wear and tear though. That's to be expected for something that lives underfoot. I know that these things are bullet proof though. I owned an FC200 for a long while and it never had any issues at all. The FC-50 runs off a normal adaptor OR batteries!! Which is great news! To see what it is capable of (including MIDI patch/bank selection and adding external expression pedals / foot switches) here is the manual: [url="ftp://ftp.roland.co.uk/productsupport/FC-50/01_FC-50_OM.pdf"]ftp://ftp.roland.co....01_FC-50_OM.pdf[/url] £55 delivered in the UK / insured shipping.
