  1. Yep, Al Atkins was the only original member, Ian Hill and KK downing joined and then the band collapsed soon after, they resurrected the band with Atkins Briefly but he soon left, and Rob Halford came in and then Glenn tipton. Thats the classic lineup
  2. Always thought the Bongo bass sounded like the sort of thing Boris Johnson would either play or use to describe some sex position 😆
  3. Makes some really nice cheese
  4. Had my eyes on one of these, but felt it was a bit pricey just yet, looks really nice. Just bought a Two notes le bass, very similar features
  5. Who knows, wanting a new pre amp but a proper tube one as I have an helix stomp been looking at the Le Bass, Ashdown, and saw this. Bit mire money put price will drop a bit once released
  6. Fantastic Fender Jazz deluxe (Mexican) circa 2015-16 model. Paid £850 new. Sounds fantastic in either passive or active mode (whatever suits) Maple neck. 3 band active Eq Active passive switch Vintage noieless pickups Comes with Fender strap, padded Fender gig bag Two sets strings Rotosound Jazz flats and set of Newtone hand made rounds. Condition superb, a couple of very minor hardly noticeable dinks, (but bass’s like these need a battle scar) only ever used outside home use for some semi acoustic rehearsals. Unfortunately selling just to clear space not used as much as my other bass’s, neefs a good home. No trades, collection or meet up, please ask as I travel a lot for work so naybe able to deliver.
  7. Looks nice this, drive not too harsh, but plenty on tap. Not the cheapest but Tube drive and no more expensive that Darkglass pedal. http://www.markbass.it/product-detail/mark-vintage-pre/
  8. The new Muff is really really nice though using split path its as good as the bass big muff pedal.
  9. I did say consider 😉 Ive lived the Stomp since i have had it, but this update is a poor showing for the Bass to literally give us nothing, and its ruined and keeps crashing HX edit.
  10. New update version 3.0 and nothing for bass, very poor, was hoping for a couple of amps and bass specific distortions, may consider switching my allegiance to the new boss core or DG Neural DSP.
  11. Definitely just not a likeable tone, seems odd to use so much blend, my head says defeats the object of the pedal unless using extreme drive. will try using from 9-12 blend (around 30-40%)
  12. Dont gave the zoom anymore upgraded to Helix stomp. several bass’s Fender Jazz deluxe. Ibanez SR1400 active or passive Norstrad preamp and just added a Specter NT aguilar pickups preamp. signal- Compressor Rochester or la comp- BDDI nothing else into tech 21 deuce deluxe Powered cab
  13. Happy for tips on settings, before a right it iff completely and just remove all blocks.
  14. I have never been able to get a good sound out of a BDDI on Zoom or Stomp,, always sounds like its being played underwater. Tried using settings iff Sansamp manual. maybe its just not my thing or getting or i’m just getting it all wroung
  15. Had mine over a week now, had time to gave a real run through NT 4, love the colour and pattern, phenomenal sustain (proper Spinal tap Nigel Tufnell sustain) loads of boom but clarity, generally a more midy sound but not lacking in the low ends, not really used the eq, but sound great everything flat. The Aguilar pickups and pre amp is excellent.
  16. I gad a Spector A few tears ago Ns2000 or legend, bolt on neck, wasnt too impressed, it felt too rattle’y and thin but muddy sounding at the same time, no warmth or real sustain. But it had a bit loose machine heads that i could not get tighter and not sure the bolts on the neck where up to much. Heard the Neck through are a different kettle of fish along with the Aquilar pick ups. Hope this blows my mind and lives up to the Spector hype. Should be here Thursday.
  17. Don’t think the video was the best, twiddling too much, i always start everything in the middle and tweak a bit at a time. But if you only have Like 10 minutes and 4 basses to through you will end up just skimming over.
  18. One of The NT’s is heading my way 4 string Walnut. But do i sell one of my other bass’s is 4 too many
  19. Price dropped open to sensible offers
  20. Best of both worlds Tech 21 deuce delux, FRFR but looks and feels like a traditional cab got a 3 band eq HPF & LPF, really brought out all the subtleties on my Helix Stomp, loud 200w if required for stage volume Di in and out. Had mine a couple of weeks really impressed.
  21. Price drop, had a couple of inquiries not followed through.
  22. Pulled the trigger on one of these, should have it tomorrow, fancied one since they came out, but waited till there was more reviews feedback. Only concern for me is lack of blend for the drive, but it does have separate level control so i hope that works well as a blend. I have had 3 previous pre amps, the Ehx battalion, excellent all round unit with an ok drive section, but sold it as just had little real use for it. Tech 21 Vt, not keen on that, farty muddy drive section. MXR M80 good unit but drive too harsh even at starting level sucked all the low end and had to use blend at 30/40% all the time. If the M80 had a low fain and high gain switch it would be the best Di out there. I like all the positive reviews around the Downtown that its a nice warm Drive that keeps the low end, but got juice in the tank if you want to crank it.
  23. Still fir dal, had a couple of potential buyers lined up, who did nit follow through.
  24. Still for sale, no firm offers yet just an enquiry.
  25. Superb dual channel bass distortion from Kirk Hammet (Metallica) separate clean Volume and Dirty Volume (blend) Treble control affects dirty only . two channels high gain fir all out mild to full on distortion. low gain for light boost to tubey overdrive. Paid £130 new. Home use only pristine condition still have Box. £80 including postage to mainland UK, up to £5 std post or hermes. Secure post and packing Inc insurance extra £10
