I like the look of your avatar! [quote name='TimmyC' post='98993' date='Dec 4 2007, 05:21 PM']Sweet, I like the look of these.[/quote]

Thank you very much for that and the sound samples. It really makes a difference when you can actually hear these things.

I use a Wood and Tronics one. Very nice. In my experience (x 2 of them) Tribal Planet bags are fantastic. Tribal planet zips are rubbish.

I'd thought of using one of these, but I have found the answer with the old tempo thing and tapping and all that malarkey. I am doing a gig with a keyboardist and with a laptop who is running Ableton so he will be opening all sorts of effects on my behalf and then I just play them.

Gotoh themselves were as much use as a a chocolate teapot iirc. Try a search - bit of a long shot I know. Sometimes searches work better on google.[/quote] That was me. It is no longer made. I looked and looked and looked. Eventually I bought a Badass V (£30 from Ebay.com) because it was the only thing I could find that would cover the real estate of the Gotoh. The good news for you is that I now have a Gotoh bridge with 3 working saddles on it so should be able to sort you out for nowt it you still need help. Let me know.

I will probably have a word with Mr East, but I'm looking for the Fishman because this one actually does what it says on the tin and I figured if it works, don't fix it.

I recently bought a Bolin NS. I LOVE the piezo pick up. It has a Fishman internal pre that Fishman will only sell me if I am a bass manufacturer. The Bolin is very nice indeed, but not nice enough to sell 2 other basses to pay for it so it is going ( [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=7971"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=7971[/url] ), however I want to install a piezo system in another bass. Does anyone have a lead on where I might find a Fishman pre like the Bolin one (5 individual trim pots on a board.) I used to have a Bongo with Piezos. It was underwhelming, but the Bolin Piezo sound is outstanding. TIA If you see this on different bass boards, forgive me but I'm casting my net as widely as poss.

I have no interest in this sale. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=7564"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=7564[/url]

Cheers Tony[/quote] Interparcel.com have worked well for me. I think it was for the Czech republic. I think I have too much coming and going in my life.

Bitter experience lets me tell you to hold the cool end. HTH.

Trying to cut down on shopping, but you never know when this will be useful

Just fabulous. John sold me a Bolin NS 5. He experienced instant regret but went through with it anyway.
