    [center][b]For Sale: Ampeg SVT 410HLF[/b][/center] Up for grabs is my amazing Ampeg cab. It's in great condition with the only real marks/scuffs on the back (from lifting in and out of the car). All of the speakers are fantastic and it's the best cab I've owned. I'm only selling because I just haven't got the space for it in my flat as well as all of my other bits! I've been using the cab with my Orange Terror Bass head and it is LOUD! If you'd like to come and try it you're more than welcome Cheapest place I can find a new one online is SoundsLive for £570 so I think[size=5] [b][s]£385[/s] £365 collected from Oxford[/b][/size] is fair although I might be at the Surrey bass bash next weekend if you want to collect it from there

    Mine just arrived too. Will report back once I've plugged it into my Orange Terror Bass when I get home

    Damn you both, I'm still waiting for my Midget (cab) to arrive. Hopefully it'll be today so I can use it in the studio tomorrow
  11. Shire
    I had one. It never went wrong on me although it was nowhere near as loud as its weight suggested! Luckily I got rid of it!

    [quote name='MoonBassAlpha' post='1295953' date='Jul 7 2011, 01:33 PM']Hi Clarky I've been thinking along these lines. Mine is the original Compact, metal grille. I'm hoping to try a Midget soon (Shire on here has one incoming). We could be on for a deal if I like it enough. cheers Jules[/quote] Mine is being covered at the moment according to Alex so it'll be with me in a few days Jules (maybe a week tops). As soon as it arrives I'll give you a call and you're welcome to come and try it

    Well I had my lesson on Sunday instead of Friday. Wasn't really a lesson, more of a chat and talk about what I wanted to get out of the lessons. We spent 2.5 hours talking and playing over a beer. He showed me scales and some basic theory (which is what I want to learn) and we had a jam for a bit. My homework is to practice the major and minor pentatonic scales over two octaves and see how I get on. Might sound simple to some but I don't know any theory and I'm keen to get better starting from the bottom! The problem I have is that I find it relatively easy to follow lessons on YouTube etc but it's understanding the theory behind the songs/riffs so I can generate some better compositions of my own that I find more difficult. Overall, a good experience. I just need to find time to practice!

    Excellent advice Bilbo. That's definitely the way to approach it and besides, I'd only look worse if I tried to 'show off', and besides it's just not in my nature but I can imagine people doing it.
  18. Shire
    Yep, that'd be good Chris. Actually looking forward to it now whereas before I was expecting the worst, you know like being told your technique is rubbish etc! Now, which bass do I take? My HW1 Precision with flats or my Musicman Sterling...
  19. Shire
    Looking good! I used to own a '72 Musicmaster which now lives with its new owner in Holland. I quite liked the short scale and vintage vibe but I could never get on with the way it sounded

    Afternoon all Got my first lesson tonight although I've been playing for about 3 years (Guitar 6 years before that and Piano 6 years before that!) but what should I expect? I can play quite competently, infact my band gig 3 or 4 times a month but my learning has plateaued and I can't seem to teach myself anything new. I get distracted easily from watching lessons online so I thought that 1 on 1 teaching was the way forward. What would you experienced players suggest I learn? Most of my playing involves dancing around pentatonic scales which works quite well in my band but I think I need to learn more theory and different styles of music but I'm open to suggestions. Am I on the right path? Cheers

    Guys and girls of Basschat. Please stop PMing me about this bass, it sold over a year ago! Cheers!
