  1. [quote name='davepb24' timestamp='1499539456' post='3332112'] "Celebrate" is one of the songs that made me want to get a bass...saw the original Nephilim 4 times back in the day, awesome on stage [/quote] When you could see through the fog and dry ice! I loved their gigs!!
  2. Just listening to the new Alpha Male Tea Party album. It's a bit good!! [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ouiPzb39PPA[/media]
  3. I doubt it'll kill off the CD, but another pressing plant will be useful.
  4. Sunn O))) 13th July It's been a few years since I saw them last

    Boss LS2.

    [quote name='Jus Lukin' timestamp='1498522138' post='3325277'] I think there are a couple of switches inside, one to leave the delays going while you are in bypass. The other gives you a delays-only output. Don't have one myself though, so you'll need to have a look! [/quote] You're correct.

  6. For me it's MKI for 4 strings, MKII for 5s I'm not keen on the MKIII shape
  7. Mohammed - Pèkisyon Funebri Saw this duo at the Supersonic festival over the weekend. They were bloody marvellous, a smidge under 114dB and low and slow. Here's a little grab of a frequency analysis:
  8. I've had: An old Mesa/Boogie vertical 2x12" Rectifier cab with 2 EVM12L in A slightly damaged (now repaired) Ashdown Mag 810 and a 1960s Guyatone all valve combo. I guess my Squier JV P bass too. It was my wife's, before I met her. She doesn't play anymore so...
  9. [quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1497351451' post='3317433'] Andy's on holiday....back in a couple of days. [/quote] He's allowed a holiday?? I'll go back to huddling in the corner sweating and shaking then...

  11. At the moment it's wet and dry to 1000 grit, then polished up with acrylic polish. Once the electronics are back in and I can test it properly, I may sand it all back to the wood and start again. I've honed my technique for applying the glue, and I'm pretty sure the board was, somehow, flatter than the expected 20" radius when I started this. Which is why the edges have gone through. So my plan is: See how is sounds, if good: Sand back and re-radius the board. Redo all the glue, wet and dry to a much higher grit and polish more.
  12. [quote name='roman_sub' timestamp='1496839803' post='3314210'] cool. did you apply any masking tape to the edges of the fingerboard, or would you recommend doing that? [/quote] I didn't, applying the glue carefully there was very little dripping. I think the masking tape could cause more glue to wick around the edge.
  13. [quote name='roman_sub' timestamp='1496838458' post='3314186'] looks good! is there a noticeable difference in tone? more sustain and treble? am tempted to do this on my fretless rosewood FB Jazz..... cheers Roman [/quote] Barefaced have all the guts at the moment. But acoustically notes are a little clearer and there's more sustain, which is what I'd thought would happen before doing this.
  14. [quote name='CameronJ' timestamp='1496756297' post='3313648'] Might be nice to receive clock sync/program change data from elsewhere in a band or recording context. It wouldn't be a deal breaker for me but might be for some I guess. [/quote] [quote name='elephantgrey' timestamp='1496756659' post='3313655'] I guess you could use it as the master to send out all programme change and tempo, but would definitely like to see cc message input. Also, not all midi enabled hardware plays nice with tempo as slave (my rc50 for instance), would be useful to send in tempo. [/quote] Ah, yes. I can see that being useful.
  15. [quote name='elephantgrey' timestamp='1496754185' post='3313634'] No midi input that I can see, only midi out. Seams odd, did I miss something? [/quote] It's a controller, why would it need midi in?
  16. [quote name='T-Bay' timestamp='1496691713' post='3313275'] Alive by Pearl Jam, off one of my favourite albums and great to play. So what tunes are other basschatters enjoying playing? [/quote] I've been really enjoying playing Alive too, and Once, Black, Porches, Release... Other than that I've been relaxing and playing some Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
  17. [quote name='dood' timestamp='1496667601' post='3313063'] Ooof! Thank you!!!! Should have gone to Specsavers. [/quote] no worries, I'm off to there on Wednesday!
  18. [quote name='dood' timestamp='1496651401' post='3312883'] There's no manual online I can see for this pedal yet, so I await to find out more.

  19. Another few coats of glue and a polish. Unfortunately It looks like I went a bit too far on the edges. Still, I have shed loads more glue to use. If I want to...
  20. This is quite tempting!! [attachment=246563:Screen Shot 2017-06-03 at 18.30.48.png] or this: [attachment=246564:Screen Shot 2017-06-03 at 18.37.43.png]
  21. I opted for a Hyper Gravity, over the Spectra Comp, purely because of the extra controls. But they are fantastic pedals.
  22. [quote name='blue' timestamp='1495654185' post='3305700'] For some genres a synth pedal would be useless. Blue [/quote] But for some genres of music, so would a bass guitar...
