fleabag

Was that a real name ? Brilliant !

I looked at Roq for my NY 121 cabs, but baulked at the prices, and they only have limited protection against knocks in transit So I decided to keep the original boxes that mine shipped in. Well , one original MB and one regular. I covered up most of the shipping labels and whatnot and then fitted strong ' handles ' , which is in fact a recycled very strong bass case. The boxes are different sizes so when the cabs are removed, one stores inside the other. Also, i use foam inbetween the fold flat raiser, and foam inbetween the 2 cabs. This will stop rubbing marks

Yuuuuuuuup ! Have a babycham on me

Its getting too complicated for me now, so it will have to remain LED-less

Dammit Thanks Red - gonna leave it without LED and have to remember when i've kicked it in

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1449827964' post='2927193'] You need to replace the DPDT footswitch with a TPDT one and then wire the LED along with a battery to the third pole of the switch so that when the signal is routed to the volume potentiometer the LED is on. [/quote] The idea was to keep power out of it. I dont to want power the pedal with battery or 9v PS. Does the LED need its own power ? Would signal from the guitar not be enough when the pedal was kicked in ?

[quote name='ubit' timestamp='1449827896' post='2927191'] Easy, just take it to a music shop and ask them to do it! Seriously, that level of repair, I would leave to a pro. , but you might be more industrious. [/quote] Well i built the box itself after sourcing the parts, so if i could get a diagram , i'm sure i could sort it out

I think to start , i'd need to swap out the footswitch for a 3PDT instead of the DPDT that already in there ?

I built a passive , non powered pre-set volume box ( cut only ) for my pedal board using this tutorial.. [url="http://www.premierguitar.com/articles/19549-state-of-the-stomp-build-a-preset-volume-box"]http://www.premiergu...eset-volume-box[/url] The writer suggests that an LED can be added so you know at a glance that the box is on or off. He doesnt say how to wired the LED into the circuit So can anyone tell me how this would be done ? I have some small LED lights here, which i assume will do the job, but need instructions on how to / where to wire it in Cheers !

Ok, thanks - will try that next time

And how did that happen ? I had a look at your post by hitting the quote button, and saw the [ media ] [ /media ] tags, so i went back and edited my link with those media tags and it still didnt appear

That little pitch black is a great tuner ! I guess it looks clean Blue because it isn't overloaded. I only have what i need for the set we do. E. Filter for Stevie Wonder, Phaser for Thin Lizzy, Synth Bass for Joe Walsh, Chorus for The Cult. Thats it and the rest of the set is without pedals If the set changes ( and like most, we add songs and drop some ) and a pedal is no longer needed, it will be sacked from the pedal board.

[quote name='No lust in Jazz' timestamp='1449753828' post='2926504'] Thanks jassbass I will investigate Glow tech dots further. [/quote] Its Glowtec by the way, not Glow tech http://www.glowtec.co.uk/glow-in-the-dark-fret-markers.htm

[quote name='RhysP' timestamp='1449687166' post='2926016'] Max Bennett plays bass on 'Song for Sharon'. [/quote] Yup, aware of that, got the CD here, but was just pointing out the wonderful bass work, seeing as the whole album was going to be listened too. It just happened to be another fretless track

Yup, that chorused fretless on Song For Sharon just wafts over the mind like a meandering summer breeze in a velvet hat

[quote name='AinsleyWalker' timestamp='1449665887' post='2925715'] How is clarifying my point 'backpedaling'? I haven't gone back on a single thing I've said... And the same goes for me, plenty of people who agree. It works both ways. I'm not sure why you've gotten so uptight about the fact that I heard 'aimless noodling' in his music. That's my opinion and I have every right in the world to express that. And (as I've already reiterated) I asked for people to give me examples of his music that might [b]change my mind[/b]!! What more do you want?! I'm openly admitting I want my mind to be changed!!! If you disagree with me then that's absolutely fine, that's actually what I wanted! It'd be boring if everyone agreed with this post, I wanted people to challenge what I said and to prove me wrong in the name of musical exploration! But show me why, give me examples like I asked for, don't just sit there repeating yourself over and over again calling me a troll for voicing my opinion. Check my other topics, I ask a lot of questions, I haven't set out to get anyone riled up. I had no idea that a simple post like this would cause such a 'crap'storm to be honest, it's quite baffling to me why you'd get so upset about a difference in musical opinion. But for the sake of being mature about this, I apologise if my honest current opinion of Jaco's music has upset you or hurt your feelings. As someone who is about 40 years my senior I hope you can do the same now and just respect my opinion. Thanks again to everyone who has debated/discussed this topic maturely and constructively! I have a lot of musical research to do this weekend [/quote] Your opinion is fine, no need to apologise. Some just need to get over themselves. For easier listening of JP, check out Joni Mitchell's ' HEJIRA ' album on yootoob. Its the only JP i like myself

Yup, same here fella. My cynicism with the world just gets more outrageous the longer i live. I've come to realise i have more empathy with dogs ( and an avid, if small, financial contributor to The Dogs Trust ) than i have with the human race

I should say they didnt misprint it, but i photoshopped it

Spare a thought for us. We're on our 6th voxist in 5 years, and he's always ill, despite being the youngest member by 10 years

Jeeeez, you had a GF in the early 90's ? You gotta be like a coiled spring these days

Dont call me surely No it wasn't a misprint

[quote name='colgraff' timestamp='1449653824' post='2925506'] I'm glad you made this point. I'm not sure that you had made your feelings sufficiently clear previously.... [/quote]

FatFinger ? Some have had results saying it eliminated a dead spot , others have said it moved the dead spot somewhere else, others said it makes no difference I had a Squier Modified J fretless that had a typical dead spot on the G string 7th fret - dont have the bass anymore, but of my current 4 basses, the Vintage MM clone has one in the same place, but its not my gigging bass, so no matter
