[quote name='patch006' timestamp='1341090029' post='1713828'] Read the manual Karl!!!!! tis easy! [/quote] Yup did that, several times . [quote name='whynot' timestamp='1341090126' post='1713831'] Press shift then turn the gain down to zero if I remember correctly, but a lot of people (including myself) think it sounds like a little compression is baked into the natural sound of the amp, plus that particular model is based on Roccos tone, and he likes compression. [/quote] Yup, think you are right, so think it's always going to have some compression.

I have had this 3 days, its not new, but almost immaclate. With it's redness, flashing lights and super dooper footswitch it looks the poodles privates. How the *$%* do you turn the compressor off? I hate them . Expert advice please or this is going to be the shortest length of time I have EVER had an amp. Ta in advance, Karl.

After much psychological warfare I have managed to part Steve from one of his Lakkies. Seriously though, absolutely top geezer, doesn't get any better, deal with confidence. Many thanks Steve

Think Bob sent this Schroeder out to me before I'd bought it . Superb easy transaction with a great down to earth bloke, cheers Bob and all the best, Karl.

[quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1340832057' post='1710372'] it's been on gumtree a while. maybe talk to him through that for a better deal? [/quote] Cheers LukeFRC, desperately trying to hold onto a gig money float until after my holidays, but..............................

[quote name='Muzz' timestamp='1340834133' post='1710423'] Have you played a Fortress at all Karl? I've got one you could try - different pickups, but you'd get the feel of it. [/quote] Cheers Mentor Muzz (somebody needs to keep me right ) I really liked the look of these back in the day and I went to Sound Control (or perhaps McCormacks?) in Glasgow. Tried one out (for about 2 hours I think), was about 40 quid short on cash. Didn't put a deposit in, went back next day and it was gone. Only one I have ever seen in the flesh. Sounded fantastic and looked fantasic. If I hadn't agreed to buy a Bob Glaub an hour before I had seen this, I would just have got it, sod "investment". Bet there isn't another one along in a minute

A girl at our gig on Saturday night recorded a Diamond Head/Metallica number we do, and she put it on Facebook. I know the quality is as would be expected in such circumstances, but I'm 54 and I don't think I've ever seen myself on any kind of recorded pictures. So apologies, but this is a little triumph to me that somebody actually cared that much. http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=244360542347518

So damned tempted http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/280907862677?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

Absolute joy to deal with, cheers Steve, everything you did was fantastic. Deal with great confidence people. All the best fella, cheers, Karl.

Just done a trade with Patch, absolute dream transaction, item better than stated. Doesn't get any better. A real credit to Basschat. Thanks so much fella, Karl.

Frightening isn't it. I may need to sell my 2004 S1 Black, black, maple soon. Simply won't let it go for less than £650, so may have to send the Mrs to swing her handbag at the docks .

Heminder has just taken delivery of a cab from me. He is an absolutely lovely guy who made the deal just so damn easy, a credit to Basschat. Enjoy the cab and best of luck with the amp heminder. Deal with absolute confidence peeps, top fella. Cheers, Karl.

He has just bought one of my 2 EBS NEO cabs, they don't come any better than Alan. Pro bass player, really nice guy, lovely to hear some proper Jaco playing amongst a lot of other stuff. Less biscuits next time matey boy, they are very special cookies . All the best Alan and thanks for being a really easy guy to deal with, cheers, Karl.

We didn't deal because the P nut width was not what he was looking for. But brilliant to even NOT deal with. Not only was he decisive and honest, he even brought one of his cabs for me to try. I am thinking about a Schroeder he's got, somebody else is selling one, Muzz brought his round to see if they would work for me. Top man, cheers fella, Karl.
