  1. You'll never get great clarity with chords, although that depends on how much saturation (gain) you're using. Really heavy fuzz sounds aren't going to sound great with more than one note really. Also remember that the M[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]astotron[/font][/color] is a gated fuzz (or rather it simulates a gate), so it will start looking to try and 'stop' your signal as soon as you stop attacking the note, which is why you're getting a quick decay on your notes. Try using a Fuzz that is not gated. You'd also do well to experiment with a parallel setup, so having two channels, one for your bass (with the overdrive pedal), and one channel for your fake guitar sound) POG & Fuzz.....or whichever way round you have it. That way, your bass sound will always rumble under the guitar sound even if the fuzz is gating the guitar signal. Si
  2. Looking to move my little Ibanez 10 watt practice amp on. Not sure on the speaker size 6" maybe. A solid 8 / 10 condition with the only mark to write home about being a small slice in the vinyl on one side. Works perfectly, sounds nice for a small practice amp. Three band eq Presence control Volume Headphone output that mutes speaker Removeable kettle lead (included) [IMG]http://i59.tinypic.com/5n25jl.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i58.tinypic.com/dejwi.jpg[/IMG] SOLD Cheers Si
  3. [quote name='pete.young' timestamp='1435246814' post='2806963'] Bass big muff. [/quote] Fuzz, doesn't count Plus the blend is flawed until you mod it, bad times! Si
  4. I guess it only really works if you've tried them all (which is unfair on the MXR a little as it is very new). Was simply interested in what blendable distortion people preferred. Si
  5. I know Mike and he mentioned on Facebook that there are some finishing niggles, and that it needed a setup to get it playing nice, but other than that I've not seen anything more. Si
  6. [quote name='eude' timestamp='1435223585' post='2806600'] That may also dupe people... [url="http://mbasses.com/"]http://mbasses.com/[/url] [/quote] Absolutely, it's also not a million miles away from the Mayones logo. [quote name='eude' timestamp='1435223843' post='2806605'] Wow, this is even closer to the real thing >> [url="http://www.aliexpress.com/item/cool-bass-guitar-free-shipping-electric-bass-RIC-wholesales-New-Arrival-4-String-Electric-Bass-Guitar/32332049568.html?s=p"]http://www.aliexpres...049568.html?s=p[/url] , the neck carve looks bang on! and this is pretty nice too >> [url="http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Custom-Shop-China-Electric-Bass-Guitar-5-String-24-Frets-Ebony-Fingerboard-Guitar-Neck-Free-Shipping/32341074830.html?s=p"]http://www.aliexpres...074830.html?s=p[/url] Eude [/quote] Yeah that's almost bang-on, pickups, bridge and controls obviously give it away, and it doesn't look like a Butterfly on the headstock. Trouble is, you still don't know what kind of wood they're using, possibly not cured well, just pulled out of the stock without any consideration of resonance/tone?! That said, I guess that's how most mass produced basses are made. Si
  7. Man the butterfly inlay on that Imperial 6 copy looks so shoddy!!! That's the problem with these copies when they're advertised as 'Fodera Butterfly', it may well dupe some people. At least Mikes is branded as 'M' Bass or whatever. Si
  8. Cheers guys The mix isn't the best (we had no say in that), but works well enough on some good headphones! Si
  9. Fantastic heads, I have two and I'd buy another if one went down! Si
  10. If anyone is interested, here's a little live session I played on recently. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqYi2fNi45g This is my Fender Japan/USA Precision with CMT Salt pickup, DI taken from my Markbass LM2, although my Barefaced Midget is being played in the room. Si
  11. No brief, no 'I want to sound like', just your instant reaction....... Comment AFTER you vote Si
  12. Looking to sell my Cool Buzz. Real meat and potatoes Fuzz, lots of low end, a Mids & Volume control. As new, couple of very very slight marks on the bottom, but were present when it arrived. Boxed with Idiotbox stickers. The sound clip attached is just a clean Jazz (everything up), and then Cool Buzz working through the mids control from fully 'off' to fully 'on'. [b][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Download and rename to .wav[/font][/color][/b] £55 inc postage Si
  13. Here's my mongrel Precision. Vintage white Fender Japan body, Fender USA Precision neck & tuners, Hipshot D-tuner, Gotoh 201 bridge, Crash Magnetic Transducers Salt pickup, Kiogon solder less loom/harness: [IMG]http://i61.tinypic.com/jal7v7.jpg[/IMG] Si
  14. [quote name='elephantgrey' timestamp='1435012411' post='2804753'] maybe its >150mA? (the max current output of the distributor) [/quote] Highly highly unlikely, it's a muff fuzz, probably sits at around 20ma if not less! Si
  15. Awesome pedals, great for loops and noise making Si
  16. I still can't believe you spray painted those Suncoasts Si

  18. Good god you're a rock band, just play louder than her!! Si
  19. (Repost from Herts Bash thread) Hey guys, All photos have been PM'd to the individual members. Apologies for the brevity of the PM, there were a few to get through Hopefully you can use the photos for something at least, perhaps we'll be a bit better setup with gear/lighting next year, it was a bit improvised this year. However I think some really good shots came out of it. Obviously post them if you want to, so others can see Cheers Si P.s. I do believe Jacks Mike Lull was the most photographed bass of the day
