  1. If you can ship it, [url="https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100002025970885&sk=photos"]Dave Wilson[/url] is one of the best in the biz. If you're not on Facebook, let me know and I'll hook you up.
  2. [quote name='Kirky' timestamp='1447242080' post='2905991'] Mine has just arrived...not posted photos for a while so let's hope this works... S212 without tweeter with Oxblood cloth. [url="https://flic.kr/p/AmzTbP"][/url] [/quote] Beauty! Sorry to hear Tommy's been non-responsive. That's unusual.
  3. Ah, man. RIP.
  4. Have you tried this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9E_tNz4QMIw
  5. [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1447023297' post='2904285'] ... and in your case, regardless of the power unit used - what would it do that the walkabout doesn't? [/quote] That's a very good point. I guess not - I'd be changing for the sake of it, really.
  6. Probably sensible. The logic for me going without stemmed from my previous experience with tweeters - on my Bergs, for example, dialling out the tweeters left the crossover in the circuit, and I always felt it affected the natural roll-off of the drivers. Whether it's the same with the TKS I don't know, but as there's no crossover in there, I know the drivers are getting the full range.
  7. They were bloody dangerous.
  8. It's a great clip - it's popped up in here just recently.
  9. [quote name='Passinwind' timestamp='1446930916' post='2903644'] Since this amp is the among the very first releases to use the newest ICE module, your wait should only be five years or so. [/quote] Heh... yeah, that's the problem. I dunno - I might really like this when I hear it, but (as we've chatted about via PM) it needs to be a real advance from what I've heard already to ring my bell...
  10. I admit I'm tempted by this, but from what I've read there's been no great advance in the spec of the power section, so.. I think I'll hang on for the next generation of modules to come through.
  11. I have no issue with him playing around with the groove and going nuts, but his timekeeping is pretty shoddy in places.
  12. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1446888592' post='2903148'] At least he can play more or less in time, which is a huge plus if you ask me. [/quote] It's the 'more or less' bit that surprises me...
  13. It's a promo. It's about showing off. it's a good idea and it's well shot. But he's all over the shop. In the end I wasn't sure wether to listen to the drum part or the backing track.
  14. I wonder if the power section is one of the usual ICE modules everyone else uses at the moment..?
  15. Yep - one nicely responsive page is all you need.
  16. Just go to Maruszczyk and get it over with...
  17. A great, distinctive groove courtesy of Fleetwood & McVie. Who cares if it's the same all the way through? What a tune!
  18. I read the Jaco book recently. Fascinating story. He was clearly a genius. And an incredible, effortless, game-changing, player. I have nothing but the utmost respect for him, the music still does nowt for me.
  19. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1446065098' post='2896681'] If you look at the Fender headstock objectively and compare it to more modern ones, it looks very paddle-like and unnecessarily large and clumsy. But I like it. [/quote] That shape saved Leo a few quid, too...
  20. [quote name='ebenezer' timestamp='1446048619' post='2896513'] are there any other basses at this price point that will better this one? [/quote] [url="http://public-peace.de/index.php/bass-guitars/maruszczyk/elwood/4-string"]Get exactly what you want for less, without the fugly headstock.[/url]
  21. I do it on one of my covers bands. It's good fun - a nice line, good song, and the punters love it.
  22. [quote name='ahpook' timestamp='1445185683' post='2889404'] Maybe he'll play it on the TV show....maybe not. I think you're supposed to enter into the spirit of a charity auction and that it being "one of Sting's basses" is a generous description for the sake of raising some money. He is going to sign it, that adds some value to it. [/quote] ^^^ this. A couple have surfaced up here as part of charity auctions.
  23. [quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1445155956' post='2889083'] The position of the pups has a big impact. [/quote] This - they vary quite a lot on PJs.
