[quote name='Horizontalste' timestamp='1408802793' post='2533633'] I didn't realise the heads were detachable? Well I'll be damned, so they are :-) [/quote] Ditto, this post got me thinking and then i came across a Talkbass thread that said the amps have a lid on...i now have mine out and it does have a top lid on - awesome!!!...just need a decent bag for it to fit in. To the OP, I did consider your cab combo case that's for sale here as i have the 2x10" but but because of the shape of the cabs it wouldn't be neatly stackable. So I'm looking for the Contour ext.speaker if anyone should have one. Anyhow have another bump and GLWTS. -
Buffalo Soldier notation anyone & Reggae advice.
Raslee replied to stingrayPete1977's topic in General Discussion
If you PM me your email I can probably scan the dots and email. Good tip - tone mostly or all off to taste, play close to neck for fatter tone, neck pick up if more than one and you could also try playing with your thumb to see if that works best. Buffalo Soldier is a good fun song to play, Three little birds is a doddle too -

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1408566415' post='2531471'] Devon, I believe. [/quote] Correct, Mark is indeed a fellow Devonian. My Limelight P bass is 8.5lbs also. Karlfer, your green/tort jazz is simply stunning...I love it. Nice weight too as my 74 jazz (mostly retired for the occasional reggae gig) is nearly 12lbs. My Limelight P has become my goto bass for my functions band...now sporting a Detuner and a Wizard trad pick up.

[quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1408435907' post='2530021'] We demand a thread. Getting close to possibly somebody starting a Limelight Porn thread? [/quote] [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1408438366' post='2530047'] Yes you should. Pics, or it didn't happen! [/quote] Yes, yes, yes...i'm on it soon. Too busy playing the darn thing the for the longy's posts...in between job applications, babies meh meh meh xxx ...and yes the pickguard is pizza:

Just got in from a strange Monday night wedding gig...bizarre on a school night. Anyhow second time this weekend my 70's Limelight P has been out and I absolutely love it, changed the pick up though to a wizard trad, the original was ok but I just think the wizard trad has the edge a bit. Anyhow... I love my Limelight and should do a NBD although I've had it for around a month or so ...can't believe I'm enjoying a Precision as well...ahem

+1 for Tom Anfield, legendary! Also I was quite impressed with Rich in Sound Unlimited in Plymouth.

[quote name='Muzz' timestamp='1408109984' post='2527238'] Very busy summer - normally two weddings a weekend, with the occasional Thursday pub gig. Loving it - and the cash! [/quote] Same boat! I'm actually quite liking the functions/wedding scene...often get well fed, looked after and decent pay for playing bass all over Devon/Cornwall...what's not to like

[color=#ff0000][size=6][b]SOLD: [/b][/size][/color]I got this little wonderful combo off here recently and it really surprised me what a great, and light, combo it is. It stood up really well with volume left in a 7 piece soul outfit in the two gigs i have done with it. However I've since acquired a Genz combo and don't really need two similar combo's...although i can happily live with the TC if it doesn't sell/trade. Whilst both the Genz & TC sound great I'm keeping the Genz as its louder and i can get 500W which is useful for the bigger gigs. So this amp is a BG250 115 Mark1, perfect condition with RockSolid cover. Plays well, loud and plenty of tone prints ready to be uploaded which is a feature i quite liked. The original for sale thread and pictures are here: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/240164-tc-electronic-bg250-1x15-for-sale-with-cover/page__p__2496281#entry2496281"]http://basschat.co.u...81#entry2496281[/url] I'd really welcome trades on this, in particular a Genz Benz Contour extension cab - either the 15" or 2x10" , or a small light amp head 200W plus, or a Genz Focus 1x12" cab, or a Lindy Fralin Precision pick up or £200 The combo is located in Devon, happy to send via courier etc.

Top notch as always. Paul is a pure credit to basschat, buyers sellers will have no probs with this guy

Wizard Trad P Bass pickup SOLD

Could be up for this too if I'm not gigging

Orange sorted my out of warranty OTB, mine was also a 2010. It was only a loose large capacitor, however Orange put the newer circuit boards in which also sorted out the hot DI. Top customer service and didn't cost a penny.

[quote name='Bassman Sam' timestamp='1407105729' post='2517462'] This. If you don't like the number, why are you playing it. If it bores you, try to put your stamp on it. If you can't, chuck it out. [/quote] Thinking about the weddings scene in particular, sadly sometimes we don't have the luxury on the choice of music! Typically I am either out voted by the majority in the band if challenging a number I don't like, or it's been requested by punters as a wedding first dance (some being so bad that I have erased from my mind), or it's on the set list when depping at short notice for other bands... I agree though that a little self signature is always a bit more gratifying on a tedious track. But heck if the monies right I'll play Justin Beaner or whatever his name is note for note
-
I find 'Higher & Higher' tedious...particularly as i was requested to put in less fills ...'Hit the Road Jack' is a bit ploddy too, great tune though.

Met with Dave at a service station on the M5, we battled the slow tourist traffic from both our directions but eventually met up in good time. Top fella, and great communications throughout, another credit to basschat - buyers/sellers can deal with confidence and of course thanks for the Genz Dave

[quote name='skej21' timestamp='1406829511' post='2515147'] Don't take this wrong way but I liked the tort guard mark gave you more than the spitfire one, so I think I'm gonna stick with mine. I'm sure the bank manager will thank me for that decision too! [/quote] I'm still waiting on my tort plate from Mark, he did email to say there is a slight delay. I've gigged my P twice now and have been very happy indeed although at last nights gig I thought the E string appeared a little bit weaker than the others. However a quick string change and perhaps raise the pick up slightly may sort that out; tonight's wedding gig will be the acid test. I'm waiting for the bass to be complete before I do a RNBD (recent), plus it will have had several gigs under its belt..but so far I'm very, very impressed with my Limelight P, in fact I'm quite surprised I'm liking the P as much as I do...certainly easier on my back than my nearly 12lb J bass

[quote name='Grassie' timestamp='1406729770' post='2514150'] Thank you. Now slightly obsessed with this band already. The Bear Creek 2011 gig on YouTube is excellent. [/quote] My pleasure, I'm working my way through their back catalogue and loving them
