  1. I fancy setting up a filter which will open and close depending on bow pressure. I even have the kit to do it. One day I will do it. I'm sure I will. I have used an OC2 which was a lot of fun.
  2. That's better.
  3. So, there you were with a full sized mock up but did not take pics? Bad show
  4. Brand new in box. I ordered this and have now decided to go in another direction. I just paid £90 for it

    I would feel slightly awkward about trashing an Overwater!

  7. Thanks for the replies. I am more than aware of the Stu Hamm scenario, but there is an active element going on there which I am hoping to avoid. I am just trying to see if it is possible to do it passively and not run into buffering etc issues if all the pickups are on at the same time. My guess is probably not, but unless you ask you do not know. It might well be that all 3 pickups at the same time would be too much of a good thing.
  8. I have two pickups wound for me by Arron Armstrong. They are two MM humbucker cases but both have a full J and half a P pickup in them. The idea is to have both so close to each other that the P will stradle the gap fairly easily. My problem is how to wire it. I want to stay passive. I have a 4 pot limit. I guess I could have a twin dual concentric vol/tone vol/tone set up for the J side and a single Vol and single tone for the P side. Would chucking them all out of the same output prove to be a bit of a loading/impedance issue? Would it be just be wiser to have a switch to have either J or P setups running or could they all live happily together? TIA as usual.
  9. Low is where it is at. If we wanted to play high we would be playing <snigger> 'cellos <snigger>.
  10. Just fabulous!
  11. If this falls through (as if!) I will take it.
  12. Yes please. PM me your PP and I will get on it Thanks.
  13. My Double Bass told me to ask if your Tele was seeing anyone at the moment. Normally guitars are not her thing, but she said that she fancied yours.
  14. I flogged Ryan an amp. It did not arrive as I had sent it. Ryan was cool while it got sorted. Ryan is cool. Know it you do.

  16. [quote name='owen' timestamp='1361999619' post='1994370'] I had a small tech issue with it and Jule's customer service - remember, this is to someone who bought it second hand so he has not seen a penny from me - has been WAY beyond the call of duty. It has just been stellar. I cannot speak highly enough of it. It is a quality pre from a quality company. [/quote] Just to update this for the record, it turns out that the tech issue I was having was with another piece of kit in my signal chain and the Monique was totally blameless.
  17. Just fabulous!
  18. I cannot even smile and play at the same time.
  19. I had reached the stage of a new nut and would probably need individual bridge pieces for the radius. What I am thinking of would be getting newtone strigns to wind me a set of 41" roundwounds. I'm not sure the gut frets would last too long. Of course this would be an expensive experiment which might not be "all that" in the end!
  20. On further thought, intonating a bridge on an already existing EUB for fretted work would be a total pain and would mean a radical bit of wood surgery
  21. His books are superb.
  22. I have an NS eub which gets an innordinate amount of love from sound engineers every time I drag it out. I would happily buy a 6 string one to do the bottom F# thing if I could see if the fretted thing worked.
