Bought a wireless system off Lee - really straightforward and easy to deal with - Cheers!

I wish I'd read the last post first before clicking on the link! 175 pages of the same notes played in different orders :wacko:

[quote name='The Funk' post='425285' date='Mar 4 2009, 04:54 PM'] How does the old saying go: a picture is worth a thousand words?[/quote] Now that CK has sold his black Celinder, I think we should replace the website banner with another appropriate bass-related picture............ I don't think we even need to vote or have a poll on it do we!?

I don't care about the m&m's etc - do they go up to 11?

[quote name='bluesparky' post='427130' date='Mar 6 2009, 12:56 PM']ok. cheers. Right, i'm off to the bass gallery - i'm going to walk in and ask for 2 warm cabs please! If only it worked like that..[/quote] It doesn't -

Guys - can this thread be kept on topic please? If it continues this way, it will be locked Cheers

IIRC it's not released yet - mid April it think - [url="http://www.soundunlimited.co.uk/product_1658_MXR_Bass_Octave_Deluxe_M288_1.html"]http://www.soundunlimited.co.uk/product_16...uxe_M288_1.html[/url] and - [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=41851"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=41851[/url] £144.16 at the moment

If he delivers in person locally I wonder if he'll put it carefully on the back seat!?

Hi There's an entry in the wiki - which can be found by clicking the link at the top of the page - [url="http://wiki.basschat.co.uk/info:amps:impedance_and_wattage"]http://wiki.basschat.co.uk/info:amps:impedance_and_wattage[/url]

[quote name='spiltmilk_2000' post='437654' date='Mar 17 2009, 06:25 PM']Thanks so much for the help everyone... let me see if im understanding this correctly. One way would be to simply use my existing 9v Boss power supply with a daisy chain to power my boss pedal tuner, Boss OC3, Akai headrush, Behringer Bass Chorus etc etc etc.[/quote] Only if it has sufficient current output [quote name='spiltmilk_2000' post='437654' date='Mar 17 2009, 06:25 PM']The use my seperate 12v supply to power the DHA?[/quote] Yes [quote name='spiltmilk_2000' post='437654' date='Mar 17 2009, 06:25 PM']What would happen if i used the 12v supply and daisy chain to power everything? Would it be BAD??? Unless I get Diago or someone to build me a custom 9v and 12v daisy chain yeah?[/quote] Some pedals might object to 12v being stuck in them. Just go for two power supplies - simple. [quote name='spiltmilk_2000' post='437654' date='Mar 17 2009, 06:25 PM']And with regard to 1000ma and all that jazz.... (I dont have the foggiest what this even means!) but i need to find out how many ma's each of my pedals draw, total them up, check my supply can deliver that much and that the daisy chain i buy can cope too?[/quote] Yes, see what each one needs to operate, add the mA together, and buy a power supply that exceeds that total as you want to keep some back for additions.

[quote name='waynepunkdude' post='435506' date='Mar 15 2009, 08:33 PM']Everybody Needs Somebody and Soul Man - Blues Brothers. Am I right in thinking they are Duck Dunn lines?[/quote] I think they are. Last riff learnt - Sylvia by Focus

I don't know why, but I really want it! I can really see myself playing it, but wearing a lot of makeup, some kinky boots and a [i]moderate [/i]amount of ladies clothing

[quote name='Currrls' post='437432' date='Mar 17 2009, 03:54 PM']does the BBE do a decent job of compressing slap bass?[/quote] Depends what your definition of decent is? If you mean a really heavy compression then no - go for a modded CS-3 or a Trace Elliot comp. If you mean very low noise and light to medium compression then yes, it does the job pretty well.

I disagree with the above. You should go to the little workers café opposite the tube station and load up with doorstop bacon butties and giant mugs of tea first. [i]Then [/i]go to The Gallery. You'll be in there for the best part of 8 hours so best to load up on carbs, fat and tea first!

Something like this will do - [url="http://www.hartnollguitars.co.uk/products.asp?id=2218"]http://www.hartnollguitars.co.uk/products.asp?id=2218[/url] I agree with the above - don't go for anything with less than 1000mA output, and you will need a seperate supply for the DHA. As for polarity etc, most go the Boss way with a centre negative 5.5mm x 2.1mm male barrel plug, some have 3.5mm Mini-Jack and some have centre positive. If you need a converter link to match your pedal to supply, send a PM to the forum member OBBM - he'll make up whatever you want.

Thing is, if in a fit of madness you did buy it, and found it actually plays/sounds worse than your 2001 USA Jazz would you keep it or sell it straight on?

Hi - and welcome to the forums! Have a good look around and enjoy!

It's a bit like surgery over the interweb this! - It could be one of several things. If you're getting noise from the speaker it could suggest that the power section is ok and the preamp is broken, or has a loose/dry connection or one of several other things! There's a good amp tech in Nottingham - [url="http://www.chambonino.com/"]http://www.chambonino.com/[/url]

I've found my string Nirvana - DR's all the way - unless of course we're talking flats in which case it's LaBellas!

I'm liking! I've not long bought a Fender P with a similar hue and really getting to like it!
