[quote name='gadget' post='55289' date='Sep 4 2007, 02:30 PM']Hey Chop! I love that body man! You know that falls right into my favourite wood catagory! Would have it off you in a jiffy if I had 100 quid handy! Don't suppose I can pay you in kind?? lol!! If I can muster summut together, I'll let you know! And if you decide to lower the price anymore, please do let me know! Cheers Bud! Big G![/quote] Hi Big G, Hope you are well. Unless the 'G' stands for Gina, and you're not toooo big, then payment in kind might be an option I think £100 inc postage is a bargain for a really nice body. I can't lower the price any more, sorry! I thought a bit of maple might get you going! Cheers Ian -

Getting rid of my two month old UL212. offers?
Chopthebass replied to dave_bass5's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
Dave, I should be getting a Schroeder 210212L soon once Nationwide can work out where they wired my money to, coz Jorg hasn't received it!!! He assures me it will be as deep as an 18" and have fantastic mids/highs with the 2x10's and new horns. From what I've read here about Schroeder, you can't go wrong. Good luck. Ian -

[quote name='Bernmeister' post='54367' date='Sep 2 2007, 07:48 PM']Wow !! I had the pleasure of trying one of these heads into my 2 swr 2x10's. With the sub harmonic generator switched in, it made the 2x10's sound absolutely huge & full in the bottom end & really sweet in the top end like i've never heard them before, "hell yes" was i impressed with the sound made the windows in his house rattle too . Caught him by surprised how nice it sounded thro' 2x10's.[/quote] Agreed! These are awesome heads with bags of power. Plus they now have a compressor, which is footswitchable. A cool amp - lowest UK price! -

Hi, For sale - Boxed, brand new, and unregistered Ashdown Klystron Classic 1000w head (575 + 575w). How about someone make me an offer then!! I'm looking for around £800 Proudly built in the UK, the Classic Series is Ashdown’s flagship bass amp range. Comprising of 500 and 1000-watt Klystron heads, a selection of cabinets and a range of 500-Watt combos, the Classics are about doing everything better – more volume, more dynamics, an extended frequency range and greater versatility. The 575 + 575-Watt Klystron 1000 head features a single input is switchable for passive and active instruments with a blend of solid state and dual triode tube preamps stages. Three straightforward rotary tone controls provide 20dB of cut and boost at 60Hz, 660Hz and 5kHz, and are supplemented by two pairs of additional sliders giving 15dB cut and boost at 180Hz, 340Hz, 1.3kHz and 2.6kHz. A built-in dual band compressor acts separately on the high and low frequency components of the signal to provide precise control, while the on-board sub-harmonic generator turns the Classics into powerhouses of tone. The inclusion of a 4-way footswitch as standard makes Ashdown Classic amongst the most versatile live performance bass amps in the business, providing control over the compressor, sub-harmonic generator, tube grind and EQ pre-shape. Specifications Power Output (RMS) 575 + 575W Thanks Ian

[quote name='JPJ' post='51642' date='Aug 28 2007, 11:28 AM']I seem to remember that 4ohm + 8 ohms = 2.7 ohms total not 3.5, but I'm sure someone more knowledgeable will be along shortly to confirm/deny this [/quote] Yep you're right, in fact it's 2.666666666666666 ohms

Hi, I can recommend Transit Cases [url="http://www.transitcases.co.uk/"]http://www.transitcases.co.uk/[/url] Very, very well made cases. Ian

I'm 5ft 14in and have abnormally long arms, so 36" scale is no prob. Seriously, it can depend on the bass shape. I had a warwick thumb 5 and with such a short top horn it had bad neck dive and I felt like I was stretching all the time. Its probably the worst bass ever made IMO. Conversly, the basses in my avatar have 24 frets, and a long horn (ooh er), plus being headless gives superb balance. These are 35in scale, and probably the best basses ever made

What does a power conditioner actually do?
Chopthebass replied to Chopthebass's topic in Repairs and Technical
Many thanks guys, particularly BOD2. I understand now and probably don't need one. What a great forum! -
What does a power conditioner actually do?
Chopthebass replied to Chopthebass's topic in Repairs and Technical
Thanks guys. So, if I get a gig on a boat or powered from a generator, are you saying that the voltage or current can fluctuate and that's why you need a conditioner in those circumstances? And you mention about USA mains - does this spike, and is that what the conditioner protects against? -
It looks quite compact - or is that Ampeg a bit of a monster in size!
-
I've seen Furman conditioners mentioned quite a few times on BW but never actually known what they do. I'm reasonable technical but can someone explain what they do, and when they are used? I saw them mentioned recently regarding problems with a DB750. Now I'm about to buy one of these Agi's so I'm interested! Cheers Ian
