  1. [quote name='Mikey.d' timestamp='1359248057' post='1952208'] Hi, will you split up the rig? I'm interested in the head only...and whats this buzzing problem, is it the amp or the bins or your bass maybe not earthing properly? [/quote] The head has probably left the building I'm afraid. But if that changes I will re-anounce. [quote name='voxpop' timestamp='1359282812' post='1952354'] Is the hum and breakup caused by the speakers or amp ? Thanks. [/quote] The hum is a signal to noise issue in the amp. I have gigged with significantly worse, but I wanted to be clear in the ad. Breakup is on really heavy plucking and in the amp. I have tried the speakers with another known to be working amp and they are fine and dandy. [quote name='playbass' timestamp='1359283235' post='1952360'] Where are you? I'd also be interested to hear more about where the hum is coming from. Do you mean 'edge' in a good way or are you trying to decribe a bad sound? Thanks. [/quote] I am in North Wales. The edge is not what you would call valves being driven into mellow overdrive. It is slightly harsh distortion. Again, on a gig it would simply disappear, but I want to be clear about stuff. I hope that answers all the questions. As I said the amp is more than likely gone and, as I forgot to say, one speaker is spoken for. Thanks y'all
  2. I like your style! Let's do it! Papal or bank transfer? Cheers Owen

  4. V cool. Must do this. It cannot be that hard but I have never had the confidence to get stuck in..
  5. I watched a lot of her vids on YT. I don't understand.......... she seems to be playing everything on the same bass......... surely she must know that she needs different basses for different styles............... what......... you mean it really is just in the fingers...............? How can I justify having more than one bass now then? She sounds great.
  6. Easy, easy and easy.
  7. [quote name='adriansmith247' timestamp='1358495839' post='1940091'] Those drivers look like whizzy cones. Have they been changed? Do you know the weight of the cabs? Nice rig. [/quote] No, they are the original drivers with proper big compression drivers. The Wizzy thing is round http://www.shorelinemusic.com/music/amps/euphonic-audio/euphonic-audio-wizzy-12/ They weigh approx 20Kg each. Not BF light, but certainly not heavy. [quote name='deepbass5' timestamp='1358498748' post='1940136'] You are having a clear out. Just to say I am using two M-lines in a similar flexible rig and cant see me changing and I also owned an iAmp these are disigned to do the job that is bass, not down to a price. You will not find a more flexible amp to get the sound you need and want. Grab a bargain. [/quote] I am having a clear out I have WAY too much kit!

  9. [quote name='ialma' timestamp='1358380732' post='1938411'] can this be strung with standard bass strings ?? [/quote] No........ but http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JzF-5k0pog
  10. I bought this whole rig here recently, hoping it would replace my current rig as it is more modular and lighter. Sadly it does not. There is a slight hum but that dissapears when you actually start playing. There is a very slight hint of edge when you really dig in. 800 watts into both cabs. Nice modular but loud rig £600 + carriage. Firm. Not looking for any trades I'm afraid.
  11. [s]I bought this here ages ago. LOVED the neck, LOVED the light weight. I am not Mr MM pickup. I took the original out and put a custom Bart in because it would cure my MM allergies. It did not. It is a better pickup no doubt, but still MMesque. I had another MM pickup lying around (SD MM drop in replacement). Obv, putting that in would make it better cos more is more, right Yngwie? [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHZ48AE3TOI[/media] Wrong! So there I was with a bass that acoustically totally does it for me, but I cannot get the sound I want. Obv it needs a pre-amp. I put an Audere in it. Wow, it roared. Then I realised that I needed and East MM in there, so flogged the Audere and put an East in. Wrong. Flogged the East and bought a new Audere. Now it roars again, but try as I might I cannot love it and don't think I ever will. I now have WAY too many basses and need to shift some. I have the original pickup - truth be told the Bart is nice but does not actually fill the gap particularly well - so I will chuck that in as well. In the pics I will upload asap you will see that it is not a pristine as new model, but it is quite the player. I am struggling to work out what to ask really. The hardware is worth quite a pretty penny, I would be happy enough to take that off and flog it and keep the neck and body and waste more money trying to get it "just so". So if anyone wants bits from it then give me a shout and I can see what happens. Bass as is (without the Dtuner on the B ) £400 What was I thinking? £300 Either pickup £70 each. Audere - £100 It is all black.[/s]
  12. [quote name='rockinbassman' timestamp='1358253961' post='1935580'] As much as I would love a mesa 8x10, I dont need it! [/quote] That is not the basschat way
  13. I would like to publically thank whoever bought this!
  14. Beedster is selling one http://basschat.co.uk/topic/196398-beedsters-getting-rid-of-all-of-my-bass-gear-thread-sabre-ray-status-ffl-necks-boogie-etc/
  15. I have one of these and like Mart above, it has stayed while others have come and gone. Mine actually went once but I bought it back. It is a winning combination of superb clarity and virtually no weight.

  19. Hey Rachel, were you in the NYWO in the mid 80s by any chance? Whether you were or not, greetings from North Wales.
