[quote name='lobematt' timestamp='1339071935' post='1683204'] I want the switch to be bypassed really. Is there a way that I can wire it to just have the bass set to passive, the blend still be a blend and both pickups on? [/quote] Isn't that already what happens when the switch is pulled?
-
It's good that we've got that cleared up.
-
OK, maybe I had the wrong wiring diagram, I really know nothing about Warwicks.

[quote name='thunderbird13' timestamp='1339068643' post='1683128'] There is nothing wrong with having a like button per se but IIRC it came up on someones profile rather than on the post , so on the rare occasion anyone liked something I posted it I would look at my profile and see 1 more like. It would be much better if the likes were not linked to the profile but to the post a bit like in The Guardian comment is free - that I believe is the main argument for , to keep the threads tidy not as some public popluarity contest I 've got an awful feeling that I havent explained myself very well [/quote] I think when we briefly had the like button it did show on the profile (in a little green box) but also on the post. When we even more briefly had like and dislike buttons they were shown separately on the post but were totalled together on the profile. I'd prefer to have neither like nor dislike buttons but if we were to have them it ought not to be anonymous - if you like something then your name shows, and if you dislike something then your name shows and then you really ought to explain yourself, so making the dislike button redundant.

It's push/pull on the vol/bal control that leaves the vol/bal inline but takes out the preamp bass/mid/treble.

here's the wiring diagram to show it: [url="http://www.warwick.de/media/manuals/Electronics/60055%20rev2.pdf"]http://www.warwick.d...0055%20rev2.pdf[/url]

[quote name='simonc61' timestamp='1339064416' post='1683020'] Sorry but I wasn't sure where to post it initially. I wasn't able to post in site issues? [/quote] I'd say General Discussion is more appropriate than Off Topic.
-
Off Topic is full of music stuff that ought to be in General Discussion.

[quote name='thunderbird13' timestamp='1339063756' post='1683005'] I was never that much of a fan of the like button as it did nothing to help my paranoia BTW why is this not in off topic ? [/quote] Is it because it should be in Site Issues?

[quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1339061298' post='1682957'] While we're at it, can we have a "Friend" option, and maybe some way of showing your "Mood". And how about a "Wall" where we can all post useless, self-important nonsense. Then we can go public and float the site for megabucks on the NYSE. [/quote] We could call it Fasschat.

Here's where this was last discussed: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/160616-vote-on-the-basschat-reputation-system"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/160616-vote-on-the-basschat-reputation-system[/url]

Hmmm ... already booked up on Saturday or I'd be there too.

[quote name='Russ' timestamp='1339016013' post='1682596'] There's some basic differences, mostly to do with muting and adapting to closer string spacing, but other than that, I can't think of any ERB-specific techniques that I've ever seen. It's all the same old fingerstyle, slap, tap, pick, etc as most people use on a bass with fewer strings. Some people might use a more classical guitar-influenced style, some might use more tapping, but it's all the same techniques. [/quote] ... but it's all the same techniques as playing guitar not specifically bass guitar.

[quote name='Chris Horton' timestamp='1339005876' post='1682362'] That must weigh a bit. My back hurts just looking at it [/quote] That'll be why he's resting it on a chair.

[quote name='Russ' timestamp='1339004945' post='1682337'] ... hence played with the sensibilities of a bass player. [/quote] Really?

I have TI JF344s on my Michael Kelly acoustic and La Bella 760Ns on my Takamine - I wouldn't dream of not using flats.

[b][size=4]2008 [u]Gibson Firebird V[/u] guitar in vintage sunburst -[size=6] [u]£850[/u][/size][/size]- COLLECTION FROM BRIGHTON OR SOUTH-EAST MEET UP[/b] I’d prefer a [u]straight cash sale[/u] or [u]maybe a trade for a lower priced Precision [i]or[/i] Jazz (perhaps a Squier) plus cash my way[/u]. The P or J would probably need to be white, black, or sunburst but try me because the worst you’ll get is a ‘no thanks’. Posting, while not impossible, is probably unwise (given the nature of Gibson headstocks) so collection from Brighton or a meet in the environs of the M25 would be strongly preferred. These are now [url="http://www.gak.co.uk/en/gibson-firebird-v-2010-vintage-sunburst/45434"]£1249 at GAK[/url]. This has serial number 015480310 which apparently means, for the curious, that this was product ten out of Nashville on 3rd June 2008. The nitrocellulose finished Firebird has a mahogany body with mahogany/walnut through neck with cream neck binding. The fingerboard is rosewood with a 12" radius and the nut width is 1.695". It has banjo tuners. At present this classic blues-rock guitar is wearing Gibson Brite Wires (9-46). The original Gibson black leatherette hard case with white plush interior is included in the sale. The original Gibson strap pins have been replaced by Schaller strap locks (but the originals can be included if I ever find them). The guitar has been through a few gigs and has a couple of minor dinks which are shown as best as possible in the pictures below: In the plush white case - ... and out of it - ... the headstock where you can just see a tiny dink half way along on the left - ... and banjo tuners ... and the backside where you can see the worst dink, on the left near the rear access cover, and a scuff on the right on the edge of the belly cut - ... and the heart of the guitar - ... and more pics in the next post -

[quote name='flyfisher' timestamp='1338983687' post='1681907'] Why waste time with nine strings? Might as well go the whole hog . . . . [/quote] Ah, possible a full range instrument.
-
[quote name='BassTractor' timestamp='1338982293' post='1681880'] I like that idea. Who knows, maybe you've just made history. Right now, the "normal" range guitar is called "guitar", whilst historically being a tenor guitar. Alto guitars do exist as well. Don't remember if soprano guitars exist, but I expect so. [/quote] This is a tenor guitar: Although I'd agree that the 'normal' six-string might be called a tenor

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1338979567' post='1681832'] At least that of an upright piano. [/quote] That sounds about right.

[quote name='police squad' timestamp='1338975789' post='1681756'] My wife has got a mustang bass (as well as her P Bass) and I put a set of cut down 45-105 long scale strings on it, but it still feels sloppy. I presume this is because of the shorter scale (I can't play my Les Paul with 9-42 because it feels sloppy, but s strat is fine) Do I need to go heavier than 45-105? advice welcome, but I may start another thread [/quote] The shorter scale does lead to lower tension with the same make and same gauge of string for the same pitch but I wouldn't cut down long scale, buy short scale strings.
