  1. I've been looking for a headless bass that is passive. Can't seem to find one, apart from various custom jobs. Anyone know of any? cheers!
  2. with Stetson, and soggy vocalist.
  3. I've just spoke to a friend of mine who knows him, she spoke to him a couple of days ago. He's still about, he still teaches and does sessions. He's been playing with a couple of Jazz bands in London, Morissey Mullen, and Pazz. Also he isn't online yet, but will be told we are remembering him in cyber space, it'll make him happy!
  4. He hasn't half changed sinced appearing in ET
  5. why? :wacko:

  11. [quote name='grosa' post='88684' date='Nov 14 2007, 10:06 PM']unless you got a fretless or a whammy pedal. play what you want and how you want. nobody can dictate to you the correct way of playing any instrument.[/quote] true, no tutor would teach a student to pluck with only one finger, but no-one criticises Jamerson for it.
  12. [quote name='LordAvon' post='45464' date='Aug 14 2007, 09:10 PM']All, This is hard for me to do as I *REALLY* love this bass, but it's killing my shoulder. This bass sounds monsterous, and has *SUCH* a deep tone it's just not true. This is probably down to the fact that bass weighes a *TONNE*. I'm looking for [b]£500[/b]. ([b]**Price Changed 10/11/07**[/b]) Shipping will be around £65 (like I say, it weighes a LOT) and I'll throw in the hard case aswell. Its got a swamp ash body (I beleive, Mike Walsh can tell you more), black hardware, custom Iceni heartland pickups and active EQ. Mike made me a new neck, fitted and set it up in july last year... to play this bass is too love it, but ou'll need shoulders like atlas. Mike knows most of the history of this guitar and remembers selling it originally about 7 years ago. Like I say, I hate to see it go, but 'm not getting any younger.[/quote] you could get Mike to make you a lighter body?
  13. I'm running a 2x10 on top and 2x12 below. Awesome.
  14. what the difference between the Factors and the Ex-Factors?
  15. [quote name='pnefc42' post='84942' date='Nov 7 2007, 02:56 PM']PM'ed[/quote] replied!
  16. Hi I need to know where my Bass Trainer came from, but I can't remember who I bought it off. It was a great price and a top bloke to deal with is all I can remember. Please pm if it was you! cheers McD
  17. [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!
  18. [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!
  19. [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
  20. [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.
  21. [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!
  22. 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?
  23. [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?)
  24. [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.
  25. 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!
