  1. Just let us know when the album is out, hoping there will be a CD too as I really don't like streaming or downloading music.
  2. @Soledad as you already have Vanderkley cabinets, why don't you couple them with one of their heads? I know they are hard to find, but it would be worth a try. I've also had tons, literally, of amp heads and as I'm always looking for transparency sound wise, the GR Bass One 800 was the most transparent very slightly coloured in the high mids, so would be my number 1, Vanderkley Aurora or Spartan being the benchmark to me; then would come the number 2, the Eich T900 as they use the same power amp module, but have a bit more warmth and tad bit less definition; number 3 would be the Glockenklang Bass Art (Classic) head (300 Watts for the first generation and 400 Watts after that) which would be closer to the Vanderkley heads, but sometimes a bit "sterile" when all flat. The MarkBass heads have too much low mids to be considered uncoloured, just like the Aguilar TH series, the AG series being their best models for sure, but not really uncoloured. The TC Electronic RH 750 head has to be tried too, even if a bit old, this is an excellent "uncoloured" head slightly scooped in the mids when flat, so a number 4. The Epifani heads are also coloured as well as any Mesa Boogie: You don't buy these for their transparency, but for their sound signature. I've always loved EBS gear, but there's a deep signature to their sound with too much low mids growl and a brighter top end, so again coloured. I've never tried a Handbox head, so will rely on users' comments. I'm now back to FRFR with a HeadRush "rig" (Core + 112 MkII) as it's, eventually for me, the best totally uncoloured tone, but if your bass or your playing is dull, the final tone will be dull too, that's the flip side of this... That said it can transcend your basic tone too, if it's a good one. 😉 Good luck with your quest.
  3. That smile on your face says it all @Ben Jamin... 😊👌🏻👍🏻
  4. For SounDGeaR... If the repair is only £20, why don't you get it fixed? 🤔 A non working instrument is not really prone to sell...
  5. The GR One's I had could go as low as 2.7 Ohms, but not 2 Ohms. Great rigs, and that 2x15's plus 4x10's must speak the devil.
  6. Holdsworth fan here!
  7. Hipshot tuners...
  8. Sounds like he needs a good bass tech as everything is sounding exactly like a too straight neck and a too low action especially as he has not a soft touch at all, so it ends up like this: an awful rattling mess.
  9. I've joined the club today, yesterday in fact, but tried it only this morning. Took no time to get an excellent sound for my fretless basses starting with the emulation of an Acoustic 370 tweaked to my liking adding a slight touch of reverb with their Room Reverb and closing the patch with their Noise Reduction. I tried this patch through my calibrated IK Multimedia monitors and a HeadRush FRFR 112 MkII active speaker: I'm really amazed by this quite cheap pedal and the many excellent tones it delivers. I tried every effect available and they all sound quite decently out of the box which is another great bonus, and rare enough to be mentioned. I'll compare this Zoom to my my HeadRush Core, but I'm quite confident about the answer. The funny thing is that I bought the Zoom MS-60B+ to simply have a correct tone when playing through my soundcard, but found myself instantly in love with this amazing pedal, because it sounded so good.
  10. Just put a new clip connector and maybe some Deoxit in the pots: Your bass will be ready for the next 15 years. 😉
  11. Nope, but it's an old trick used to counter balance headstock diving as used by Bernard Paganotti (Magma's bass player) in the 70's and other bass players too.
  12. Very nice, with a touch of class.
  13. Same for me, a bass bought from this very parish, before Shitbreaks, that came totally unprotected in a too big hardcase without anything inside preventing it to move and, which is the most "delicious" part, with the shipping label sticked on the case itself that wasn't even locked by any means. Thankfully, when the driver presented it to me, he agreed with me that this wasn't secured at all, so he opened it before me and the ACG bass inside was there and intact. I was a bit upset, but the bass was fine. That said, I still love this place. 😉
  14. You know, me, and modern dances...
  15. Buy them at Mouser @steantval, they are the original ones and the price is way lower. I even put the two official wiring diagrams in the link above.
  16. Look here...

  18. Epiphanies less Paul, but there's no Paul in Epiphanies, so how could he become less.
  19. Wow, Janek Gwizdala is simply an amazing guy! Congratulations to him and his friend Ian Allison to organise this on the go so fast and on the same day!
  20. That's good for Reverb as I really don't know how they really make money with all these overpriced items... I've sold a very few items there and bought even less, as you have to be posh to buy as everything is overpriced all the time. That said, I once lodge a complaint for a set of pickups I had bought that weren't new as mentioned and after a few photos and text exchanges with Reverb's service, I got the partial refund I had asked. But I had no audio files to send that said @Beedster. To me, eBay complaint management is way worse as they only protect the seller and have always done so.
