  1. [quote name='mistahbenn' post='84560' date='Nov 6 2007, 07:00 PM']Ok true, Here goes, Thuya full facing over bubinga body, thuya back, Ebony board with beautiful abalone inlays, Kent armsrong pickups with the powerful Schack 18V circuit. I have had this for only a short time, it is immaculate, funky sounding, phat bass, I have done several sessions with it which are available on the net here [url="http://www.myspace.com/harrycoade"][url="http://www.myspace.com/harrycoade"]http://www.myspace.com/harrycoade[/url][/url] (the together remix) and here [url="http://www.myspace.com/harrysremixes"][url="http://www.myspace.com/harrysremixes"]http://www.myspace.com/harrysremixes[/url][/url] (7 days, Frontin and naughty girl) Thanks, Benn[/quote] ooh lovely!
  2. [quote name='MacDaddy' post='84242' date='Nov 5 2007, 10:09 PM']bought from and customised by [b][color="#800080"]Mike at The Bass Merchant[/color].[/b][/quote] I can not recommend this guy enough, from the entry level to custom builds The Bass Merchant is just awesome!
  3. [quote name='warwickhunt' post='84052' date='Nov 5 2007, 04:24 PM']Am I correct in assuming that you got this from Mike at the Bass Merchant... a couple days before I called and was told that it had sold! Seriously nice compact rig.[/quote] thanks the speakers are wrapped, so each one behind is angled. Yep bought from and customised by [b][color="#800080"]Mike at The Bass Merchant[/color].[/b] I had 2 requirements. 1 small. 2 loud. After the Dalek I needed something that would actually fit into my car. Having a saloon isn't the best option for a bassist
  4. [quote name='bassbloke' post='83986' date='Nov 5 2007, 02:42 PM']Sorry, are there 2 10" drivers in each cab? How are you getting on with the Tech stuff? You had a few questions about the EQ, but I've found it doesn;t really need touching - I just use the gain and master on mine and maybe adjust the mid for more or less bark. Other than that, it sounds great with tone controls set to 12 o'clock.[/quote] there's 2x10 on top in the combo, and 2x12 underneath in the cab. I'm not really using the EQ much either, though I've noticed the Compressor just reduces the volume - lots - unless I'm winding it up. Then it seems to do it's job. I need to try my V-AMP through the FX loop, but it's getting round to it.
  5. [quote name='Krysbass' post='83948' date='Nov 5 2007, 01:09 PM']+1 ...and of course being able to take a quick swig from the bottle/glass strategically placed nearby. It's good to be the bass player.[/quote] Hell yeah!
  6. okay, first up the rig next here's a closer look at the combo and just to add some perspective, both my Sub and the rig are both on the floor this is how it might look on a dark stage?
  7. [quote name='neilb' post='83226' date='Nov 3 2007, 06:35 PM']At last! Thanks OG.[/quote] and a big DOH! from me :wacko: (didn't there used to be an embarrassed emoticon?)
  8. [quote name='neilb' post='83149' date='Nov 3 2007, 02:32 PM']Never heard of Wlico Johnson, is he famous?[/quote] Dr Feelgood, and had a stint as a Blockhead.
  9. Everyone seems to have missed the most important point about using open strings - the more open strings you use, the more time you have to wave your hand in the air making rock/metal symbols!
  10. A while ago, I was talking to a bloke I know, and he mentioned in passing 'my Dad's bass player Norman'. Dad is Wlico Johnson, and Norman is the legend that is NWR
  11. TECH SOUNDSYSYEMS NT 2X10 special, originally made for Tom [i]'Squarepusher' [/i]Jenkinson (allegedly the smallest 2x10 ever made!) Head in the combo upgraded on the treble to give an extra 6db of boost at 11khz, 600w RMS @ 2ohm. Combo runs at 4ohms. Cab = CT 2X10 fitted with Neo B+C drivers to give 1000 watts RMS @ 4ohms. Total 1900 watts on speakers. Yeah baby it's loud Will try put some pics up over the weekend.
  12. [quote name='stevebasshead' post='82404' date='Nov 1 2007, 05:43 PM']Vox I think[/quote] them's the ones!
  13. Forget the name, but the basses that were around in the 60's and are a tear drop shape, have an exceedingly slim neck.
  14. [quote name='Zoe_BillySheehan' post='81412' date='Oct 30 2007, 06:56 PM']Hey I'm Zoe... I was on 'bassworld' so i thought id better come and join basschat Z x [/quote] Hey welcome back
  15. [quote name='TheRev' post='64629' date='Sep 24 2007, 09:28 AM']Nice - I haven't seen one of those since WASP were strutting the stage with their exploding codpieces.[/quote] and here it is [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TsoLb-E7oy8"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TsoLb-E7oy8[/url]
  16. I would have killed for a bass like that when I were a lad. I like. Good luck with the sale.
  17. [quote name='Super_Mario_Bass' post='77489' date='Oct 21 2007, 09:37 PM']Er, me too. Please? =) this is better than most libraries[/quote] will put you down as after me.
  18. [quote name='Alun' post='77531' date='Oct 21 2007, 10:32 PM']Okey doke, MacDaddy is next when I've read it. MD - Will PM you for your address when the time comes :-)[/quote] cheers!
  19. I saw the review in Bass Player, in a nutshell: awesome synth sounds convincing amp models and good distortions. but lack of effects plastic casing liable to dings and scratches plastic volume pedal
  20. [quote name='Aussiephoenix' post='78358' date='Oct 23 2007, 04:00 PM']lets face it, bassplayers, to the rest of the world are unseen and will always plug straight into the amp, with no need for fx or anything of the kind. bah.[/quote] quite possibly true
  21. yep this was mine, and quite stunning it is too. Sounds great, the set up is awesome, and looks as cool as the f-word. Have a bump on me
  22. [quote name='BeLow' post='76718' date='Oct 19 2007, 08:24 PM']How much would you be looking for - I am up in the herts area in the first weekend of November for a gig and I am sure this would complement the shukers I have already.[/quote] pm'd
  23. think I'll wait for version 2 (if they do one) which hopefully will have delay and a tuner.
