Hi and welcome to the forums! Have a dig around and enjoy the site. Make good use of the search tool, and if you don't find what you're looking for don't hesitate to ask away!

It looks like if you want a 4 ohm 8x10 cab, they have to be 32 ohm wired in parallel, or 4 ohm wired in series/parallel

If you have a look, I think volume has one for sale

[quote name='Hamster' post='337897' date='Nov 26 2008, 11:51 PM']More cables delivered to me - more excellent service [/quote] Funny you should say that Hamster - OBBM just sent me a few more cables, and again it was exellent service!

Hi Dan - welcome to the forums! You've got a pretty nice setup there - enjoy!

I also think it will be very worth while to run the new drivers in with a test tone over 24 hours or so - [url="http://www.binkster.net/extras.shtml#cd"]http://www.binkster.net/extras.shtml#cd[/url]

Trace Elliot schematic or service manual
Hamster replied to Zerofret's topic in Repairs and Technical
[quote name='Zerofret' post='433747' date='Mar 13 2009, 02:56 PM']Thanks Hamster but these links are just for owners manuals not schematics. Steve[/quote] Ok, in that case you get the schematics by sending them an e-mail -
SOLD (not in Basschat): Sadowsky MV5 For Sale
Hamster replied to margusalviste's topic in Basses For Sale
[quote name='margusalviste' post='433589' date='Mar 13 2009, 01:19 PM']I am a private person. This bass belongs to my company so if I sell it I have to ask 18% VAT (as I payed when I bought it). Some private persons have also VAT nr. PS! My company doesn't sell musical instruments.[/quote] Hi If you are selling as a private person, then that's fine. You have paid the VAT when you bought it, and as long as you trade within the EEC there is no further tax to pay. I would assume then that the asking price will be 1525 EUR. If you are selling as a business entity and trying to get the VAT back that you paid for it - then sorry, trade sales are only by prior agreement with the site owners. And please fellow forumites - no more pricing comments -
Trace Elliot schematic or service manual
Hamster replied to Zerofret's topic in Repairs and Technical
[quote name='Zerofret' post='433654' date='Mar 13 2009, 02:05 PM']Has anyone got a copy of the service manual or schematic for the Trace Elliot BLX SMC GP7 150 watt amplifier? It uses the 'Bipolar Bear' amp module. I would really appreciate if anyone could send me a link or email me a copy. The links on the British Audio Service website no longer work. Cheers Steve[/quote] They're working for me? - [url="http://www.britishaudioservice.com/trace_operateinstru.shtml"]http://www.britishaudioservice.com/trace_operateinstru.shtml[/url] -
Going to PM you with the IP address you're using.

I wonder what would happen if Oasis ripped off Coldplay, and Coldplay ripped off Oasis - and this went on for a few months? - Would they share the Brit award?

thinking of going into amplifiers, so any input would be apprieciated!
Hamster replied to umph's topic in Amps and Cabs
Anywhere between 200 - 400 watts of power. Not your PMPO - the proper watts that blows the froth off your beer when you're 200 foot from the stage. I like sliders. I like knobs (I'm gonna regret that!) so sliders OR knobs - not a mixture! Speakon outputs NO fixed bias - IMHO the only flaw in the otherwise superb Mesa Boogie offerings None of this 1 - to - 10 markings on the gain/volume knobs - knobs should be marked - Stun - Wound - Kill - Vaporise Beer proof coverings -
I love tribute bands - and that sounds a great gig. Probably a lot of work to get it sounding authentic though!

[quote name='MB1' post='432676' date='Mar 12 2009, 05:58 PM']if you check the bid history its all private sellers identity kept private?? what are the chances of that??[/quote] The seller chose this option when he/she listed it, I don't think there's any need to do this now that ebay have bidders identities concealed

Quick answer - buy a BBE OptoStomp Long answer - make your own mind up! - [url="http://www.ovnilab.com/"]http://www.ovnilab.com/[/url]

[quote name='hodgsonk' post='432113' date='Mar 12 2009, 08:01 AM']I'm a complete newb, having no musical experience whatsoever, woke up one morning and decided I wanted to learn to play the bass.[/quote] Ah - a rare moment of clarity. Stay with it for the rest of your life and buy a proper hat - sorted! Welcome
-
I've played both - and they're both excellent basses. I agree with Josh - decide what will you use it for and choose wisely, then say screw it and buy both!

What message do you get when you try and open the topic/post?

The electricity company should be able to give you a power consumption/cost estimate without infringing data protection. When my house was flooded I had to have dehumidifiers installed for weeks. They really suck up the juice, so it could be that unit? If electricity is .15 per Kw/hour and the dehumidifier is 1000w, it's going to cost .15p each hour = £3.60 per day = £25.20 per week = £1310.40 per annum to run it 24/7 + VAT!

I recognise that bass - very sweet, killer tone and a fantastic refin done by Clive Brown IIRC?
-
I'm plugged into mine this very moment and they're great little gadgets. Nice to see you again Phil - don't be a stranger here!
-
Sounds like something inside has let go - maybe as you say it's producing microphonics the same way as when valve internals get dislodged? Time to swap the pot out and see if it works I suppose?

[quote name='RayFW' post='431177' date='Mar 11 2009, 12:59 AM']It'd be wise to remove the preferring no paypal sentence from the listing otherwise ebay will probably remove the ad.[/quote] A good spot - they don't care about blatant fraudulent listings, but if you try and avoid giving them a few pennies...........

[quote name='smartburgher' post='431083' date='Mar 10 2009, 10:36 PM']I love jazz, but I need to learn how to walk, any tips? [/quote] Well, walking bass lines in jazz are pretty rare, as they're usually the right notes played in the right order, whereas jazz is all about playing the wrong notes in the wrong order and getting away with it because of your haircut. Irrespective of your haircut - welcome!
