More likely it's the vibration though the stage floor. Ive had the same issue myself. Get an Auralex Gramma Pad. Proplem Solved... And it tightened the bottom end sound up loads as well! Best £40 I ever spent!

Fender rumble is great for a practice amp. Good fat sound and can take a low B at reasonable volume. For a combo range, the Rumbles are great for the money. If you can find a 2nd hand one, The Peavy MicroBass is brill, and if you want to spend a few quid the EBS Session 60 is my pick of the lot! Shep

The mount that comes with it was done in partnership with Voodoo Labs, and is designed for a voodoo Labs power supply. If any others fit it, it's pure fluke. I used a Diago Powerstation. Velcro'd to the underside on my PedalTrain II & slotted into the groove at the back of my PedalTrain Mini.

Quick update from Robbie. Neck wood cut to size in prep for truss rod etc... Tongues managed to get 2 necks out of this so who's going to be the lucky person to claim the other 6 string neck?

Rumour's looking very tasty!

I have just completed a review fr BGM for the TC Electronics BG500. Hopefully in the next issue.

[quote name='Geek99' post='904503' date='Jul 25 2010, 07:02 AM']Twas me with the jazz bass. Even one of the guitar guys came over to look which was quite impressive. Thanks for your time on that, I appreciate it.[/quote] No probs. Hope you get it sorted. We don't see many Jap Fenders. Was the highlight of mine and Ed's day! Shep

Hey guys.... Big Saturday for ND&GC today. Not in terms of sales (it was dead!), but in my 4 hours there I met another 3 basschatters! Cheers for Dread Bass for dropping in (See you at Waterfront next sat) and to the chap with the lovely Jap Fender Jazz (good luck with the pickups), plus the chap that came and bough the Ibby ATK from me... Apologies for not getting your user names to the latter two. It's also worth announcing that after some discussion, today will of been my last Saturday at the Drum Centre. I get married in 2 weeks time, work 6 days a week and am playing in 3 bands. Something has to give, and the Saturday's tinkering with toys is taking the chop. I'll still be affiliated with the Drum Centre through my other job and will keep up to date with bits on bobs. Anyone that used me for set ups I'll still happily offer that service, just message me here instead... I think iv done 7 basschatters basses to date with no complaints. Big thanks for everyone over the last year for popping in and saying hello and spending a few quid. Make sure you still give Ed and the boys some business now I've gone! Shep

Cheers for the kind words. I'm excited about the Bolt-on as well. To be honestI don't like Thru Necks. I only own Bolt-ons now.I don't know what it is, they just seem to feel better and sound nicer… maybe I'm just fooling myself. Either way I love bolt-ons.

Another of Stig's basses as well it seems…

Thats the one! Cheers guys! Mods feel free to close...

Hi guys there was a bass I saw some time back on the forum but can't find the thread it was in. I can't recall the bassists name, or the band he was in, but my god to I recall the bass… It was back-to-front, with a huge body the shape of a head-stock and the actual head of the bass shaped like a tiny bass body. It was some custom build for him… If someone can find the thread for me, or know who I'm talking about so I can find a pic of said bass then I can rest easy and the thread can be closed :-) Cheers! Shep

[quote name='Silent Fly' post='898297' date='Jul 18 2010, 07:14 PM']The [url="http://www.sfxsound.co.uk/mainpage.asp?page=micro_fuzz"][sfx] micro-Fuzz[/url] works fine with active or passive basses. I think the MXR El Grande or the MXR Blowtorch are also ok with active basses.[/quote] Agreed on the Blowtorch... And Max's Red Dragon am Micro Fuzz are fantastic!

My AB-Synth by Fuzzhugger is the most brutal crazy sounding fuzz I have ever heard and it loves Active Basses. It is very sensitive to the input volume and I find if you roll the volume off on the bass by about 20% it is the biggest Fuzz around!

Oddly my Neo cabs (EBS) are a little mid-shy, and to get any honky-ness I have to EQ mid into them! The total opposite of your soundchap's takes on Neo speakers! Maybe my ears are shot as well. From whats been said it kinda sounds like he's an old-schooler who knows, loves and trusts the big fat warm old speaker sound… most modern stuff sounds sooooooo different to the old Peavy, Trace, Orange tone that most engineers face day to day and become familiar. I've had a few engineers tell me how 'odd' the EBS Fafner sounds… which is crazy, as its clearly the most amazing amp ever made ;-) Its just 'unfamiliar to them'. If he hears too much mid. turn the mid down! Don't change your rig!
