JMJ........love that guy! [IMG]http://i42.tinypic.com/1z1vb68.jpg[/IMG] Si -
[quote name='DolganoFF' timestamp='1385741342' post='2291762'] My Squier Vintage Modified 4 with noname replacement maple neck; and Squier Vintage Modified V: [url="http://www.flickr.com/photos/dolganoff/10923019366/"][/url] [/quote] That Squire P5 looks very impressive, wasn't aware it existed. How is it? Si

I"m actually a bit hazy as to what the deal is with lead solder. I don't think it's illegal to use broadly speaking, however I don't believe it can be used in commercially available produce?! Maybe someone can clarify. Luckily my dad is an electronics engineer of some 40 years............so I have various supplies of decent components/tools to hand . I always socket ICs, usually socket Transistors, and sometimes socket Diodes. If you want to be super careful/experimental, socket everything you can manage Si

Dammit, I'm rehearsing Si

[quote name='GazWills' timestamp='1386607204' post='2302093'] I'd seen this before but watched again last night, v interesting! I've been watching a few music docs recently, the iron maiden one ('flight 666') is on youtube and worth a watch, even if you don't like the band [/quote] Yeah, same with me and Metallica's Some Kind Of Monster, can't stand the band, brilliant documentary!

Enjoying it so far, will be finishing it later Si -
[quote name='ratman' timestamp='1386591514' post='2301779'] I'm not daunted by the wiring on this. I have already rewired a couple of my own basses, and although I'm new to building pedals, I like to think I'm technically minded enough to cope ok. Hopefully it won't be a one off thing either but I'll take it one project at a time. Thanks for the supportive replies - I'll let you know how it goes. [/quote] Get to it! Si

I hate Fuzz through 10inch speakers and, as Gaz mentions, tweeters! Very interested to hear your thoughts on the Diabolik Gaz! Si

Hi guys, Picked this up a little while ago on here, but haven't really used it. I'll get some pictures of the actual unit asap (it's in decent condition), but the same as this: No box or manual, but will be packed well. £35 + £3 postage (take off postage for a trade). I'm mostly interested in trades, I can make up the balance if i'm particulaly interested. Basically WHY? [b][u]TRADED[/u][/b] Si

[quote name='ratman' timestamp='1386586010' post='2301677'] I'm thinking about starting building my own pedals in the new year. I've seen a BYOC bass overdrive [url="http://buildyourownclone.com/bassfx/bassoverdrive.html"]http://buildyourownc...soverdrive.html[/url] and I'm wondering if anyone here has built one of these? The You Tube demo sounds ok. I love the blend feature, that's a must for me. Or, any suggestions for anything similar? Bearing in mind, this is my first attempt. Cheers. [/quote] I believe that kit is essentially an Xotic BB Pre with a blend feature (I've never felt the need for a Blend with that circuit). 5 knobs worth of offboard wiring could be enough to put you off for life haha. As such, I'd suggest starting with something like a clean boost or a Fuzz Face, just to get you into the swing of it, only 1 or 2 knobs worth of wiring (sometimes even on-board pots mmmmmmm). Having said that, if you're literally just talking about a one-off because you want a bass drive......go for it, patience are a must though Good luck Si

There was also a fair amount of low end coming from the Compacts ports that wasn't getting picked up by the mic. The BDPG has a ton of low-end on the tone knob too. I preferably wanted to record the audio into Logic, but I've misplaced the adapter for my interface, so had to make do with the USB cardioid Si
-
Cheers bud See for me, the combo is RT & BDPG, 3:30 sounds lush to my ears Si

[quote name='hamfist' timestamp='1386441250' post='2300223'] Nice one Si ! Much appreciated. I particularly liked the Demon on it's own right near the start. Is that a standard Demon ? I don't remember my old Demon King sounding quite like that. [/quote] Hey bud, Yeah completely stock/standard Demon I think it was low-gain at the start of the vid. If it makes a difference, I played the bass part with a pick (not my strong-point), but if you're a fingers player like I am 90% of the time, it's going to sound less grindy. Si

There you go Listen through decent headphones/speakers please! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSL9jALcHNk Si

I agree, it's much braver of someone to hold their hands up in the face of a mistake and admit it. Unfortunately in this case, simply due to the scope of the 'mis-management', I think it will be very difficult indeed to pay everyone back. This of course then continues to reflect badly on her despite her self-proclaimed good intentions. I hope that everyone involved gets back what they deserve Si

[quote name='Prime_BASS' timestamp='1386239787' post='2297496'] Never really liked anything with mosfet clipping, inparticular the fulltone bass drive. [/quote] Yeah I wouldn't have MOSFET as my initial choice, but I can make it work, and my Demon does sound awesome. Given the choice, I use LEDs, or certainly that's what I'm running my GS (asymmetric LEDs), RT, Cog 66 etc. Interestingly, the Rat I built with clipping options sounds better low-gain with no diodes selected, and better in high-gain with LEDs.

[quote name='Prime_BASS' timestamp='1386205280' post='2297315'] Without getting weird as I know nothing of devi ever until Fuzzrocious posted it on FB. Is she a he or was a he and is now a she. [/quote] He is a pre-op she Si
-
What's the legal status of sites like that? Technically theft? Si
-
I've never really had any dealings with Devi, she seems to have produced some well loved pedals. It's apparently all over, largely due to her mis-management of the donations from her (ambitious?) FX console kickstarter: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/deviever/console-ii-cartridge-based-multi-fx-guitar-pedal/posts/683655 Who do we think has taken on Devi Ever FX? I'm plumping for Dwarfcraft Si
-
Noted I've not tried an OCD, but I know the Demon has more gain to it. Ryan has also built a few LED clipping Demon's which come out slightly less compressed and a bit more lairy than the MOSFET clipping. p.s. Do you play with pick or fingers? Si

[quote name='DiMarco' timestamp='1385911683' post='2293488'] Final two versions, with sweet Wengé & Zebrano and a slightly fatter body model. This is where I will stop. This is my dreambass. [/quote] Very cool Warwick do have a custom-shop you know Si
-
I'll do my best to do all 4 then, BDPG, RT, Demon & GS Si

Good job I've got a Rat Tail as well then huh Si

I can do some clips on Thurs/Fri with my Precision if you like? Si
