[quote name='Bassnut62' post='910908' date='Jul 31 2010, 06:42 AM']There's a thread running in this same forum titled - who's gonna buy this. Someone posted links to the 3 pre-EB Rays in this thread[/quote] Cheers for that Si

I don't really no much about the early G&L's, when were Leo's years etc? Always loved the ASAT's looks! Si

What are the three on eBay?, my very brief search only came up with a black '78 at £1800 (too much), and a natural one in America with bidding around £500 Cheers Si

[quote name='witterth' post='910410' date='Jul 30 2010, 04:24 PM']Here, Si. but then,you'd know that wouldnt you! ATB W[/quote] Well yeah, thats a given isn't it Si

[quote name='Rayman' post='910403' date='Jul 30 2010, 04:18 PM']I have to say though that many people here will say they've [i]never[/i] had a problem at all, so don't write off a 'ray just because some of us [i]have[/i] had an issue, they're great basses when you find a good one.[/quote] Oh of course, certainly wouldn't pass on anything just cos of heresay Anyone know of good places to look out for Pre-EB stingrays? Si

Cool, I've been having vague ideas about looking around for a Pre-EB Stingray, so just wondered if it was a problem back then too! Cheers Si

Hurrow! Just a quick one really. Does anyone know if the well documented issues with quiet G strings on Stringrays was prevalent with the older Pre-Ernie Ball era Stingrays?, or is it a modern phenom (sic)? Cheers Si

Try some high tension strings from Newtone Strings. I had two basses in Drop C Standard for a good 3 years, using 45-105 gauge strings, with a similar action and tension to standard tuning! The only downside to higher tension is that they often don't go up to Standard too well. You obviously have to set the neck up to accomodate them. Remember that it's the core of the string that determines tension, not really the size/guage of the outer winding. Give Malcolm a call, tell him your tuning, and they'll sort something out for you....usually for a similar price to Elites/Rotos Si

Mmmmmmmm....Sonic Blllluueeeeeee Si

Guys can we leave out the personal sniping please, quickest way for you to get the thread closed! No one is going to agree on something so subjective, so why pointlessly argue?! Cheers Si

+1 for Steve! One of the best! Si

Nice one Joe!! Does 3rd place get anything? lol Si

[quote name='algmusic' post='894755' date='Jul 14 2010, 02:54 PM']What cab do you use with the terror?[/quote] I use it with either an Ashdown Mini 4x8, a Mini 1x15 or a combination of the both Si

My bass terror is awesome, yes it kinda just does one sound very well....the EQ isn't massively powerful, but I can't say that I've ever been at a gig and needed more than a tweak on any EQ to be happy. Over-Eq'ing an amp is bad IMO! But yes, remember that the Terror front end is the same as the AD200! Si

Obviously XB is completely right! But yes, experiment and use what YOU think sounds cool. As Mr Steve Lawson (and many others) would say...There's often a difference between what is right and what sounds good Si

I've heard from a few players that they prefer Dorian's softer sound than the full on Minor'ness (sic) of the Natural Minor. Certainly in some instances Aeolian is a bit much, depends on the song really! Si

You can tell that the grey/blue/red/white weren't any of the original colours because, assuming it's original, the pickguard is tortoiseshell. All custom colours had mint green (off white to my eyes) pickguards. So at some point it was sunburst. A beauty though, I'd love a 60's Jazz, won't be happening just yet though I'm afraid Si

Yes Ultrajazzes are Humbucking Si

Dillinger Escape Plan, Kate Rusby, Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip Go screw your brain by listening to one after the other! Si

If you have an issue after purchase, just buy a seperate DI box! Problem solved My OTB is awesome, love it, but when I'm going through a PA, I'll just use my Sansamp in front of it. Take the DI from the sansamp and run the parallel out (dry out) to the Orange for my onstage sound. This way it acts in two ways, I have seperate control of tone onstage and out front, one doesn't affect the other, plus if for any reason my amp dies....I still have a FOH signal. Si

[quote name='wesfinn' post='881252' date='Jun 29 2010, 07:07 PM']Alright Si, hope your well mate. I can get any of the custom colours...heres a list Black, Olympic White, dakota red, fiesta red, sonic blue, daphne blue, surf green, sea foam green, shell pink, candy red, lake placid blue, inca silver, firemist gold, gold sparkle, taos turquoise, [b]sherwood green[/b], burgandy mist[/quote] Ok cool Si
