  1. [quote name='RichBowman' post='151703' date='Mar 5 2008, 01:35 PM']Cheers Owen! Hope all is well with you (what did you end up doing to that Fretless bling-ray?).[/quote] I got very excited, bought 2 Nordstrand triple coils, 1 east MM pre-amp and a Status neck. It all got a bit out of hand, but it will be done soon
  2. BARGAI-LISCIOUS! Not that I need a new amp!
  3. Whatever you get make sure you can live with the sound of the fans. Some amps have loud fans, some have quiet ones.
  4. [quote name='walbassist' post='148982' date='Feb 29 2008, 02:58 PM'].............the Bravewood body, .................. already sold.[/quote] Drat and double drat!
  5. Correct me if I'm wrong here (and I probably am) - chucking is like playing with a pick - but without a pick. Yes/no?
  6. [quote name='wateroftyne' post='143471' date='Feb 19 2008, 11:31 PM']It's all in here: [url="http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/sell/questions/endlist-now.html"]http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/sell/questions/endlist-now.html[/url][/quote] Thanks, I spent a fruitless hour looking for that last night!
  7. I wanted it, but could not shift enough kit quickly enough.

  9. I would pay good money for the guts of a 5HH Bongo. I can live with the looks, and the sound was 'da BOMB, but I was not lovin the 34" B and the lower horn dug into my leg when I sat down. Not cool.
  10. Ebay pulled my second ad because I had the temerity to say that it was for sale elsewhere! Pigs Anyway. Yours for £650 otherwise I will keep it and sulk!
  11. [quote name='bilbo230763' post='105269' date='Dec 17 2007, 11:49 AM']& the drummer is beautiful.[/quote] <sigh> why can't we just appreciate players for what they have to say instead of how they look. So shallow........... oh......... sorry............... I'll get my coat...............
  12. Multi band compression on classical is the horriblest thing ever. The whole sound changes. There is a light classical prog on Radio Cymru (Welsh radio). Radio Cymru is put through M B C. The prog is on on every Sunday morning. Until I knew about M B C I was absolutely convinced that the presenter had his own weird reverb unit which he put across everything to get a signature "sound" for his programme. Amongst other things, all the upper strings become un-naturally pronounced and shimmer - but not in a good way. I used to lie in bed trying not to listen to it, but my wife used it as an alarm. It has now moved slot. Phew.
  13. [quote name='wateroftyne' post='135088' date='Feb 6 2008, 03:29 PM']Compression...[/quote] Not just compression, but multi-band compression. The audio spectrum is split into 4 or 5 or 6 or 7 parts (by frequency) and each section gets compressed on it's own. Mucho loudness ensues.
  14. [quote name='mcgraham' post='135074' date='Feb 6 2008, 03:18 PM']Somebody please nab it![/quote] !
  15. Now on Ebay with a start price of £680. Have at it. [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=290203014163&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT&ih=019"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...E:IT&ih=019[/url]
  16. [quote name='eubassix' post='133451' date='Feb 4 2008, 10:05 AM']You could do what I'm doing (or planning, thus far) - get over to The Messe (always wantted to; never managed it as yet) on the proceeds of a few sales & savings, with some dosh to buy something 'special'.[/quote] MMMMMMMMM basschat trip!
  17. It's a flight case! Surely an address on the outside is all it would need for carriage!
  18. As an ex 410XLT owner, this is an awful lot of cab for very little money.
  19. [quote name='TPJ' post='131547' date='Jan 31 2008, 09:11 PM']Bump for a gucci amp. I've got the older 600 w 1 channel model and it's superb. Not sterile or thin sounding even though it's SS. Set flat all the time...I don't even use the filters. Cracking amps[/quote] Thanks TPJ. My wife would be astounded to know that I own ANYTHING that could have gucci as part of a description of it
