  1. Personal pref is for the Subdecay Echobox just the right amount of dark and analogyness Here's a clip of me playing one without the modulation stuff on [url="http://www.grygrx.net/Pedal%20Reviews/Subdecay/Echo%20Box/Subdecay%20Echo%20Box.mp3"]http://www.grygrx.net/Pedal%20Reviews/Subd...0Echo%20Box.mp3[/url]
  2. Had this ages ago, not using it, it's taking up space someone come and take it. Not open to shipping this, sorry I just can't be bothered it says it's a 25b I think, it's fairly loud and sounds actually very good for what it is. Either way it's free, it's here, come and get it. Cheers
  3. [quote name='BanditSid' post='859324' date='Jun 6 2010, 09:11 PM']I have three NOS Mullard EL34's for sale if they're any good to you - the date code etched in puts them as 1973 to 75 manufacture - all unused, in boxes and pe4rfect condition.[/quote] Tempting but I think I need 4 I don't expect any of these valves to be working. Also for the amount I'm going to use it I'll probably go a cheaper route such as JJ's But thanks for the offer, I'll bare you in mind if I have to replace some of my other Mullards
  4. This next picture I did because the Dynacord is hardwired to 8ohms so had to use both cabs, shockingly it's really loud (you know for 17w) and when cranked the distortion is beautiful, this will be going to quite a few jams with me, rocking out Jack Bruce style. The cabs together are bigger than the sum of their parts on their own, while it's a full range signal it's not huge sounding but the 2 together is really big and far more balanced, to the point with the Simms I could gig, probably a small gig but easily cover anything I do outside of my main band. Here is what my new home practice rig will be once serviced (Dynacord MV15 and Carlsbro Cab) So overall I'm happy with this, can't wait to get the head up and running this week.
  5. Finally caved after some persuading and got this, currently doesn't work but it has worked in the past and none of the valves glow. So with these being all original I'm assuming it needs a revalve and a service to get it up and running. Ok so got it here today and taken some crappy blackberry pics. Firstly its in very good condition, needs a bit of a clean and obviously as stated early the amp doesn't work here is a worse picture than the above Back of the amp Back of the amp opened up Everything looks fine, not much rust, transformers look in good condition, etc. Brimar Preamp Tube looks super clean, almost brand new I expect these will be fine and therefore will be staying in the amp Tubes removed Can you say Mullard, unfortunately 1 has a small crack near the base and they both rattle and have small white stuff inside so I think they're blown but they'll get tested tomorrow along with everything else. Head with the tubes out As stated before everything looks in good order and again look at those beautiful Brimar preamp tubes Cab opened up You can see it has a tweeter, I don't know if it works but it certainly doesn't make any bad noises in either cabs so not going to disconnect it. Initially I was really disappointed as I was expecting 70's celestions and I though, "Damn some crappy own make by Carlsbro" but a quick google of Power Tone 60 revealed this. [url="http://www.amps-n-bits.com/guitar-speakers/fane-guitar-speakers/fane-guitar-speakers.htm"]http://www.amps-n-bits.com/guitar-speakers...ar-speakers.htm[/url] (Scroll down to the similar picture) It's a 60w Fane and both cabs are the same now I've had some 25w Fanes before and they just couldn't handle the bass I threw at them, but these as test later were beautiful. Testing one cab out, running at 16 ohms just the cab on the left, annoyingly the input and link jacks are on the left side of both cabs so you can't use them both and sit them like this side by side, though I think I can get a really flat right angled jack speaker lead and do this is future. Using my Simms Watt PA100 MK1 with the 1967 Hofner 185/E2. Sound is nice, little bit quiet considering the power going into it
  6. [quote name='howieee' post='856238' date='Jun 3 2010, 03:57 PM']i dont ahve a thousnad pounds to spare. or did google turn out the wrong result. (that was a sweet compressor by the looks of it.[/quote] Nah that's the right one Honestly mate I wouldn't bother with it not with the amp you have.
  7. A great book for this is [url="http://www.mofoster.com/author_17watts.php"]http://www.mofoster.com/author_17watts.php[/url] If you can find it
  8. Wouldn't bother tube amps compress your signal plenty, just practice not having huge peaks and dips in your playing style If you really want I highly recommend the Empirical Labs Distressor
  9. I'd be interested to know who of the 2 4x10 people have actually used an 8x10 and more importantly moved one.
  10. [quote name='howieee' post='856150' date='Jun 3 2010, 02:38 PM']how about 2 ampeg 15" 8ohm cabs with an 8x10 on the top powered by an svt VR! i think that would be pretty dam sweet! or 4 15" cabs..... 4x15... hmmmmmm [/quote] You seen the SVT VR and 8x10 on sale here for £1500 I saw it and thought of you.
  11. WOW So what do you own currently?
  12. Yellowfish and sorry for the thread take over good luck with the sale
  13. Also if you feel like adding to it [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=69979"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=69979[/url]
  14. Cool, my GT200 is coming with a pot for the gain still using the 5 position depth because I'll just leave it in one position. The amp sounds fantastic, let me know if you're ever in Manchester and we'll meet up We actually record down in Brighton so I'll give you a shout when I'm next down and see if I can catch a show, gotta hear that beast in action
  15. Love the Matamp I'm just waiting on my GT200 can you tell me more about it, obviously it's a bit special with the 2 channel's etc.
  16. I have a Warwick Rockstand 5 and 3 guitar stand. The 5, the foam is a little bit tatty where some basses have been sat but the 3 is like new. Let me know if you are interested and we'll work out any cash adjustment. Cheers
  17. I met a company at Bassday 2009 that make custom 3 bass cases that you just wheel in and take the front off and viola it's a stand as well, can only imagine that thing will be insane with my Overwater's in it but wouldn't mind speaking to them about one. Anyone know who I mean? Also I'm selling my Incase dubag I could do ideally with a Harvest Double.
  18. Got a Aguilar Tone Hammer coming in and need to free up some cash so am finally getting rid of my trusty gigbag DI. IT sounds every bit as good as the Radial JDI I owned and is basically Radial making their own transformer instead of using the Jenson. The Radial Pro DI is a high-quality, full-range mono passive direct box equipped with custom made audio transformers for exceptional signal handling without saturation and with extremely low phase distortion in the critical bass and mid regions. The result is exceptional clarity and definition at an attractive price point. Ultra-compact and made of 14 gauge steel, the Radial Pro DI features internal I-beam construction with a 'book-end' outer shell for extreme durability in the most demanding environments. The Radial Pro DI direct box offers performance superior to any other DI's in his price range and are ideally suited for use with acoustic guitar, bass and keyboards. The main features of the Radial Pro DI include: * Full range passive direct boxes * Isolation transformer eliminates noise * Very low harmonic and phase distortion * Compact and rugged design * Ideal for live sound and studio These are £75 new so I'm after £55ono I don't have the box but I do have the Radial sticker it came with it's in pretty good condition, what I like to call DI condition, it's been in my gig bag most it's life so just a bit grubby from when it's had to come out on stage. Here are the pics Cheers
  19. 1 8x10 is far easier to move than 2 4x10's Most of the time you roll the 8x10 around, it's a 1 person lift into a car I use to get one in a Toyota Avensis. My 4x10 is a comfortable 2 person lift, it's a bugger one your own and going up stairs the 8x10 is much better as it's carried parallel to the stairs at an angle. Hope this helps
  20. These are both so lovely (as is the one you're selling)
  21. Got any pics of the other Overwater you have?
  22. Holy crap that is beautiful Congrats
