Why do so many people want to play this over-rated piece of sh*t.

[quote name='WarPig' post='599997' date='Sep 16 2009, 11:07 AM']Aye. Just hope it works after all that [/quote] I'll give it a go in a bit, I have it at home at the moment, I'm loving it, such a brute.

Just a couple of riffs played really sloppily but I'll work out how to use this interface better and get you something better sounding and played by the end of the week.

[quote name='Jobiebass' post='600638' date='Sep 16 2009, 07:46 PM']I know basic theory. major/minor triads, diminished triad, dominant 7th etc and I know a few difrent type of scales too but I still suck at improv.[/quote] You know a lot more than I do, I don't let lack of theory get me down, if it sounds good I'll play it.

[quote name='Shockwave' post='599495' date='Sep 15 2009, 06:48 PM']I dont suppose anyone has a Fender Road Worn P bass they could bring along? Maple neck [/quote] I can bring a sander I got the Ampeg back today, sounds amazing

[quote name='Muppet' post='21799' date='Jun 22 2007, 11:25 AM']Mike Swain at Panic Music [url="http://www.panicmusic.co.uk/"]http://www.panicmusic.co.uk/[/url] The UKs only official Ampeg repair centre, they do virtually all types of amps, PAs, mixers etc. Very busy so worth booking in advance[/quote] Got my SVT back from them today oh my God I can't believe how good my amp sounds again they replaced A LOT of parts and got her back to her original glory and run it at full power for 3 hours to test it before they sent it back very well packed. I can't say about reliability yet but so far so good. Cheers Muppet.

[quote name='Fraktal' post='599159' date='Sep 15 2009, 12:54 PM']Speaker cables arent shielded, instrument ones are.[/quote] So just a standard jack cable?

[quote name='WarPig' post='599070' date='Sep 15 2009, 11:23 AM']How about: Bass > AB2 (A) Amp Input (B ) DHA > Effects Loop Return? [url="http://www.ampeg.com/pdf/SVT-5PRO.pdf"]http://www.ampeg.com/pdf/SVT-5PRO.pdf[/url] Page 5. You will need a shielded cable.[/quote] Shielded as in a speaker jack?

Might be worth getting a Y cable and using the DHA as a boost/cut? So Bass to AB2 (a) Amp input (B ) DHA -> amp input

[quote name='PauBass' post='598820' date='Sep 14 2009, 11:05 PM']Really? What a shame! I was hoping to, at least, do the audition but I sent them two messages since they placed the ad and I didn't get any reply at all.[/quote] I went through Myspace, TBH I don't know why it's not my type of music and I don't have the time to tour ATM.

I just got a message back from them saying that they have someone now.

I get my Ampeg back and I want a switchable pre-amp my idea is to go Bass -> Boss AB2 (A) DHA EQ-DI -> Pre-amp in ( B ) Amp input Therefore having two seperate pre-amps, will this work? orcan I cause damage?

[quote name='AndyTravis' post='598185' date='Sep 14 2009, 01:52 PM']Nice, i do remember their PBass copy having a remarkably close logo. Bit naughty really. Thanks for the info.[/quote]

[quote name='budget bassist' post='598155' date='Sep 14 2009, 01:26 PM']I used to own a SUB and i did own a jazz too for a bit (though not that particular one), as wayne said, sound wise, the SUB has much more balls and just sounds a lot growlier, whereas the jazz sounds a bit more polite... it's only really the way you can describe it... The musicman has the preamp too, so there's a lot more scope for different sounds etc. And obviously the jazz neck is a lot thinner.[/quote] 1000 times better than I could have put it. I'll do you some A/B stuff by the end of the week.

[quote name='Raggy' post='598063' date='Sep 14 2009, 11:55 AM']If you got time to, yes please.[/quote] No problem, I don't know what happened to half of my post up there I did also say if you wanted to come try them you could depending on where you are.

Done it a few times with my Encore only have it given back, great bass that one......

[quote name='Monz' post='598008' date='Sep 14 2009, 10:48 AM']Wayne... Checkout Matamp if you are looking for serious all valve tone, they really are the mutts nuts and custom made for £1299 200W into 4 or 8 ohm.[/quote] Just to clarify it's out of my price range and my SVT is plenty beefy enough for me but from what the guy was saying this thing will be a monster. I have heard a guitar Matamp one of the custom jobs with the buyers name on, his name was Matt so it didn't have the same effect.

I've just been on the phone to a man about a new mass produced all valve amp coming out next year. He said it will be around 600W @ 2 OHMS and it'll be about £2.5K but there will be cheaper less powerful version to follow. I know it's not much info but it sounds awesome.

[quote name='Raggy' post='597826' date='Sep 13 2009, 10:56 PM']Can you elaborate please Wayne Ive got some serious Stingray type gass[/quote] d try them. I'm terrible at describing these type of things, I'd say the ray has more balls. If you want I can do some A/B sound samples for you?

[quote name='budget bassist' post='597636' date='Sep 13 2009, 08:16 PM']yes [/quote] I still don't know which I prefer, they are both great but in different ways.

[quote name='Mr. Foxen' post='597762' date='Sep 13 2009, 10:03 PM']Rusty trombone?[/quote] Still working on that, one day maybe. < most appropriate smily ever.

on a good night my missus cleans my rusty pole piece.

[quote name='budget bassist' post='597519' date='Sep 13 2009, 05:40 PM']wrong bass though [/quote] Better?
