fleabag

I could get away 10mm of bush thread, but i forgot to mention, i'm after full size pots. Strangely, i have a pair of Solid shaft 10mm thread, 6.35 shaft, CTS 250k Lin pots here, and i need another pair, but JHC, i cant find them anywhere. I'd really like matching brand, but no luck, hence looking for non matching pair

I'm struggling to find some 250k Lin pots with a decent thread length on the bush, and also solid shaft. 15mm - ish threaded bush length is what i need. I checked for the quality names , CTS, Bourns.. but nothing pops up. Either they're split shaft, or short threaded bush, or both. Tried all the usual suspects - Axes R Us, CPC Farnell, RS Online, Mouser Elecs , guitar shops blah blah. Even Thomann .. Can anyone point me to a source ? Ta

Dont forget to buy a portable winch. TE 2x15 1524 = 103 Lbs - ish

Get one of the Shuttlemax dual channels. Awesome

...and again. An amp this time. Great packing as before.

I doubt you would hear much difference between 500 and 800

That looks like it'll need sanding and respraying. Something like Meguiars scratch remover is the ultimate stuff, but those scratches look too far gone

I swapped out a Wilkinson MM pickup for a Warman MM and it was superb. I know its not specifically a P but if it's the quality of Warman pickups you're insterested in, have no fear

Stop looking at my waffle

Yeah i guess i can throw the surplus parts in a draw. I'm surprised i can't buy a pair of those in a kit. The install accessories would then be tailored for 2 pickups.

Thanks Woody. It still seems that buying 2 pickups means i get 2 of the large connector blocks, but surely , looking at the diagram for 2 pickups, i only need 1 ? And judging by the diagram 9 or 10, which seems the closest, they assume a pickup selector switch. And diag 9 uses 1 master volume and 1 master tone. Diag 10 uses 2 volumes and 1 tone. So i get left with a surplus main connector block with either diags, plus a spare tone and spare volume pots diag 9, or a spare tone pot diag 10. This doesnt seem a financially good way to purchase 2 of the HZ pickups

I've been looking at EMG HZ pickups, and if i only wanted one pickup, it seems straight forward. One pickup comes with everything needed, apparently. But if i order 2, i get the same install system as 1 pickup. So double everything in the list. Surely they need to connect to each other somehow , like a regular pair of pickups. Since these use solderless connectors, not sure how this is done, and do i need exactly 2 of everything , as this is what i will get if buying a pair.

Thats laughing at it which is was what i imagined J-curve ? Pah Luckily, we aren't playing big venues

He wasnt offering an opinion. It was an attempt at being funny, because that description was already posted. Screenshot of Yamaha description

Well, i can't sing , i ain't pretty, and my legs are thin. Nor can i keep time. I'd be perfect for that horrible mess of a band Oh, 'ang on.. Not much hair. Over 40. Dont move around around. No dress sense. Forget it

I wonder what on earth a J curve line array is. Did Yamaha invent this as marketing BS and it means nowt. ? Well, we will know if Fitzy laughs at it, whether it's a real thing or not @Bill Fitzmaurice ?

Sorry Al, no live stuff. Our rhyth git and vocalist has a humungus gaff in the country and a monster lounge, so we have fired it up with my bass and a backing drum kit, and vox, and it was damn impressive. We've been used to an old style PA ( heavy cabs, heavy amp etc ) As Fitzy said, its probably compromised for large auditorium gigs, but club / pub stuff, no probs

I went for the Yamaha Stagepas 1k and bought 2 of them. They're £1700 from Thomann or £1900 from Andertons, for 2 I guess these are a compromise, since the tops sit in the sub casing. There's connectors inside the top of the 12" sub, and the spacers ( bottom and middle of towers are spacers with electrical connectors ) and of course the very top bit has all 10 1.5" drivers plus the connectors to the spacer below it. The top tower can sit direct on the sub, on one spacer , or on both spacers, depending on the height one wants the tops to fire at.

Likewise. Probably the same shop. Everybody's fave Bass shop on here tried to stiff me while my £1500 bass was on commission sale. The thing disapeared, and to this day it has never reappeared. Of course the owner knew what happened. I just got told a huge pack of lies, and where the story changed in the middle of the debacle. More lies. After 3 months of back and forth BS, i did the threat. I was paid within a few days. I've never known such an outright lying scumbag. I wouldn't buy an E string off them, and havent bought a single item off them since

Hats Off To Har Max Normal

They'd be perfect for my 2 luddite friends.

That Ebay active Laney looks pretty damn good. If we hadnt any monitors at all, 3 of those would have been ideal. The T.amp is probably the answer for the other 2 guys though.

I'm not wasting my time, as you call it , because it's not my issue. I'm just posting on behalf of what the others want. I dont care how they sort it. I'm just asking questions I have my monitor and that'll do me. Yup, the Stagepas ( each stack ) just has a jack monitor out with just a volume control. But we have a passive mixer so this has aux busses, so we wont be using the Stagepas for monitors. I can pass on recoms. for amps etc. They want to hear FOH. All instruments go through PA. 2 guitars / 1 bass / 3 mics / backing track That Thomann looks like a bargain , as long as it doesnt produce sparks

Good point, but you can just see the scenario coming up where one of the guys says ' mine's too loud '
