  1. i f***in detest pubs who put on 'Battles Of The Bands' total scam, sorry typo.. TOTAL SCUM
  2. image the fun Paul must have with FOUR of em to pratt around on lot to be said for a good ole lektrical P Bass hey
  3. you could bump some Spiros down Clarky, get a high C for the G, real nice low tension i bump Spiro A&D to E&A and use lambert Deluxe D&G, lamberts have no steel so no good for mag pup, but the tension is nice and even and the slight tone difference isn't a problem when amplified loud with some EQ
  4. i think it will apply to any piezo pickup being used with the bassbone
  5. came across this on another forum Happy Jack... "Sounds like you have the impedance set wrong. Plug into input one. next to that is a small hole labeled PZB-1. with a nail, needle file, or something, press the recessed button in the small hole to turn on the piezo buffer. This should reduce the harshness of the piezo and reduce the gain slightly. Turn up the gain on input one to sound as loud as before. Now your bass should sound warmer."
  6. phwoar! Swap you for two pickups errrrr... NOPE, two pickup IS a lot more than i was offered when i stupidly tried to sell her a while back tho
  7. [quote name='grumble' post='1232123' date='May 15 2011, 04:05 PM']Maybe time for 'DB porn' thread [/quote] bring it on.... Kay M1, circa 1966 [attachment=79971:front.jpg][attachment=79972:back.jpg]
  8. as i was the @*&$ who recommended and sold these to Clarky i think i should chip in with these quotes from other users... Taco Daves..... "Get em while they are hot people! These are high quality pickups and sound great. I would compare them to the deep lows of an Underwood with more volume and have a nice natural tone" Taco Daves V RB1 "I have both, and like them both. Dave's pickup is really tough made construction, no dainty little wires. Dave's pickup is more like a Bass Max in tone IMO than the RB-1. I think the RB-1 has a more complex tone, in the mids, but may not be as feedback resistant. The Taco Dave pickup has alot of bass, and picks up slap sounds well also. Overall I'd say that Dave's pickups are fatter sounding, and the RB-1 has more mids. The Taco Dave pickup is kinda like a Bass Max on steroids"
  9. a swift smack with a baseball bat would get the cutaway effect i think
  10. Kay gets 1st, Framus 2nd, Blonde 3rd think that's a B&H, King 4th hang on tho... maybe Framus 1st
  11. i'm gonna get along to see you lot soon
  12. phew!! that's a relief, you must be totally skint selling stuff at those prices AND having to play in a band with FOURTEEN other members and i nominate that Coda 3 for 'bargain of the year' so far
  13. [quote name='Bilbo' post='1228963' date='May 12 2011, 04:02 PM']Will you knock it off, mate. [/quote] get a shop for christs sake Clarky

  15. have abump, i know some very good guitar players who rave about these
  16. he wants the end of the board duarte, along with your string spacing, you'll need to trace it
  17. Nigel Dunne???
  18. send it back if it's still under warranty, i found Marshall servicing really ok, very helpfull, even sent me freebie spares and mine was an old amp
  19. i had this on an MB amp and it was the return input (or maybe send) stick a stereo jack in and see if it stops it, not that easy to replace either, in fact nothing is easy to replace on those amps whch doesn't help cos they're notoriously unreliable dogs i got rid of mine oh yeah, from memory the pot on the back has a similar cut out effect too, not sure if the combo has that or what it actually did, but it shorts out
  20. thanks to all who voted, we got into the final 10 PLUS!!! i DID get a nomination and it didn't cost me a penny, had to sleep with some very strange people tho, anyways any votes for 'Big Mammas Door' would be mucho appreciated for the finals, were up for female vocals, keyboards, drums, best album, yaawwnn....... link here...

  21. you can order a TM through Daves facebook site, TM Pickups, it'll take around a month to arrive tho , [url="https://www.facebook.com/TacoManPickups"]https://www.facebook.com/TacoManPickups[/url] he'd appreciate any feedback from happy users btw. the Schatten RB1 is very similar and around the same price, supplier here... [url="http://www.oakdenemusicservices.co.uk/Oakdene_Music_Services/Welcome.html"]http://www.oakdenemusicservices.co.uk/Oakd...es/Welcome.html[/url] Steve is just up the road from me and one heck of a luthier too
  22. the old K162's are dogs to play apparently, it's not the quality of them that fetched those prices it's cos anything with that K logo is just cool at the moment how much you after skej21?
  23. [quote name='hillbilly deluxe' post='1212306' date='Apr 27 2011, 08:32 AM']Its not worth much,and it's not a good back up bass,novelty value ? landfill ? Kay did make some decent gear but IMO anything with the coat hanger wire string retainer is not worth the bother.All my opinion.[/quote] hmmmnn..... [url="http://www.gbase.com/gear/kay-k162-electric-bass-1954-sunburst"]http://www.gbase.com/gear/kay-k162-electri...s-1954-sunburst[/url] stick it on Ebay and i think you'll be surprised very popular guitars in the US now, along with Harmony's and Silvertone's, they've re-issued the K162.
