  1. I have a bass with piezos in it. I love the sound but don't really get on with the bass (one magnetic pick up and I like 2). Due to playing a DB I know how important a decent pre-amp is to buffer the piezos, but I am guessing that a piezo saddle is pretty much a piezo saddle. As long as it is seated properly under the string it will do it's thing. Am I right or wrong? Do piezos which have been artificially aged and had special radiation treatment to enhance the mids sound better or is it all just to do with a decent buffering pre amp?
  2. I have no possible use for these, but use some of them at work and this is a cheap as chips way to make your shows look good.
  3. I got this. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=42659&hl="]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=42659&hl=[/url] It came with a super mojo'd case. I need a gig bag with back straps. Where to go for one? TIA

  9. [quote name='steve-norris' post='431029' date='Mar 10 2009, 09:34 PM']You weren't seriously going to use that cheap tat for you bass amp were you? i only use [url="http://www.hifigear.co.uk/site/scripts/product_browse.php?category_id=186&product_id=7856"]these[/url] [/quote] If I paid that much for a power lead I would expect a 13A plug!
  10. Spec here. [url="http://www.emginc.com/products/index/122"]http://www.emginc.com/products/index/122[/url] I have two of these. One works just fine on it's own and blended with the other. The 2nd works blended with the first but not on it's own. I have wound the local shops to the max trying to get them both to work as they should. I have given up. If you understand wires then you are ahead of the game. I will sell with the EMG push/pull pots for Single coil/Humbucker operation. They are approx £100 each new. To you £65 all in. There is one fully working EMG 45TW here. I also have an EMG bass and treble circuit that I will chuck in for another £40. Someone put me out of my misery.
  11. I hope you are all proud of yourselves, bullying me into getting this. It is lush though.

    I bought Will Boss tuner thing. It is fabulous. Will is fabulous. You knows it.
  15. I have this. It is a controller for a Zoom 9050/9150. I have no use for it. If anyone else has, it is your for the cost of postage.
  16. It did not go so I presume it is there for the taking.
  17. [quote name='silverfoxnik' post='424522' date='Mar 3 2009, 09:08 PM']Very wise decision if I might say so, Gareth! Your bass is one of the 'defining' Wals from the later period of the company's history IMO..[/quote] Enough of this crazy talk. Sell it to me.
  18. It was exciting while it lasted! Ahhh, the thrill of the chase
