Ok so am listing this on behalf of my good friend, Dave. Anyway, he has just upgraded to a schmexual Ampeg setup so would like to see this gone! This is the blurb that he's sent me: [b]Warwick X-treme 10.1[/b] The X-treme bass head is both the Beauty and the Beast, all in one unit! The beauty is found in the incredible voicing and EQ section, which gives players the ability to shape their sound in a myriad of ways. The beast is found in the beefy 1000 watts (at 4 ohms) of MOSFET power, which is clean, clear and devastating. There are several other features - like the switchable and adjustable onboard compressor - which pro players will rejoice over and find that they cannot live without. This also comes with a 2 unit case (which has been slightley damaged, see on pic). [url="http://imageshack.us"][/url] Rack case damage: [url="http://imageshack.us"][/url] [b] 411 Pro Cab[/b] 4x10 Speakers HF Horn with attenuator 600 watts RMS Impedance: 8 ohms Bass Reflex Housing Weight: 85.98 lbs. Dimensions: 26.5" x 23.8" x 19" (HxWxD) This cabinet represents the epitome of design, manufacturing and creativity. It is equipped with professional high current speaker connector compatible with Switchcraft HPC & similar connectors. The cab is covered with Warwicks tough blue-black felt and the ports and HF horns are chrome-plated for an understated but powerful stage appearance. This is a great cabinet. It has been gigging however never ragged. The HF-Horn Attenuator knob has been bent (see on pic) but still works. [url="http://imageshack.us"][/url] [b]Prices![/b] [b]SOLD[/b] PM me if you're interested and I'll pass you Dave's number and you can taaalllkkkk, he's based in Ealing, London Cheers for looking! Si -
Bump please Si -
FEMALE BASSIST/BVs WANTED for FULL TIME all female BAND
Sibob replied to TheShebeats's topic in Musicians Wanted
I'm personally vouching for the Band and the OP here! So if we could keep this on topic and tasteful, It would mean a lot to me Thanks guys Si -
Shame it's not just one year earlier, a pre-CBS in that condition will be priceless one day But still very very nice indeed! Si
-
I would love this! But that would be too many Jazz purchases in an all too short period of time lol Have a bump for a really nice looking instrument! Si

It's about whatever feels more natural to you and also what tones the song calls for! My main tone comes from me naturally playing over the bridge pickup, that is the main sound in my head, but then there are certain passages in songs that will require me to move over to the neck pickup. In the same way that the sound of the note I want determines where on the neck I'll play it. I've also found that if you want an overdriven sound (if you have a tube amp or hybrid like me), you're more likely to get it my digging in on the neck pickup than the bridge pickup.....again, it's just another sound available to your fingers that perhaps others think they need pedals or EQ changes for!

Bassfan bought my Lakland 44-02D Fantastic bass, but wasn't quite for me, and simply wasn't getting used! I'd still like to try a DJ4 & JO4 in anger though! Si
-
And that's why the 70's Jazzes have that burpy growl....much more fun than the 60's sound! I was kinda interested in one of these 70's MIMs, but then I went and bought a 1973 Jazz Si

Hmmm, I should check my cash converters more often! Si

Bump for 'trade' changes Si
-
It's basically a 70's version of my Standard US Jazz, so I'm happy and sorted with my setup now. No current outstanding GAS Well.......not for basses anyway Cabs next Si

Apparently Lars was pretty sloppy, although that really doesn't surprise me anymore! Si

I'm really liking that ESP!! Si

...but this time...I'm the proud owner! [url="http://imageshack.us"][/url] I've been after an early 70's jazz for a while, and was gutted when I missed this the first time round, I consider myself very lucky that I had a second chance . I won't post all the same pictures again, I'll do some nice new ones asap, with me or something lol. Getting its first outings on thursday and saturday this week! Needed a slight setup tweak for my personal preferences, but the flatwounds it came with are still fitted. I haven't had flats on a bass in a few years so am enjoying the difference for a little bit, still growls like a mofo, but some Newtone Roundwounds 40-100 will be fitted in the next few weeks I should think! The bass has a fender reissue bridge on it now, as opposed to the schaller monstrosity pictured above, it also has Wizard pickups in it, the details of which I can't remember apart from that they're slightly overwound, but they sound pretty awesome to me so far! I'm using it without the (reissue) pickups covers or thumbrest that it came fitted with, they just get in my way . When finances permit, I'll be looking at getting a genuine early 70's bridge for it. I'm sure I'll add more to this post soon, I've had 2 and a half days with it, so lots more to explore ohhh yes! Si

Am off to Paris tomorrow morning, and am staying near Montemarte, so will be checking out Rue Victor Masse Lovely! Si

Female Bass player required! New North London Rock Band!
Sibob replied to False Flags's topic in Musicians Wanted
Why would you hire a girl who might not be right for the job passed the fact that she has boobies and looks cute, over a guy who might be just right. It obviously works both ways, but just hiring someone to be 'cool' gets seen through almost instantly! Just hire a bass player! Si -
It's like the sibling to my all white/maple precision Very cool Si

[quote name='mr.sibs' post='276531' date='Sep 3 2008, 08:34 PM']Real natty bit of kit this, another one intended for a band that never came through so its up here if anyone is interested? Its in perfect condition and hardly used, and could be a great live tool. Very easy to load on and edit samples, and tonnes of space with a 1GB smart card included.

[quote name='rayfw' post='275468' date='Sep 2 2008, 02:47 PM']Yes but that 1oz of wood makes all the difference tone wise. [/quote] The tone of mine is sublime! [quote]Just to clarify - I was referring to the American Deluxe P and Jazz basses - as there is also a Fender Jazz Deluxe (active, non US) also available P[/quote] Yeah mine was a American Deluxe Jazz, completely failed to impress in every-way compared to my Standard US Si
-
Cheers Steve! You'll forever be the guy who so nearly supplied me with the pickups for it haha Si
-
My passive standard MIA jazz kicked the ass of the deluxe Jazz I had for a while....in every way! But I think that just highlights the fact that you should really just go out and play as many basses as you can, it's such a subjective thing! Si

[quote name='Jean-Luc Pickguard' post='275168' date='Sep 2 2008, 07:56 AM'] Who makes Lakland skylines & G&L Tributes? Cort[/quote] Even so, all things considered, I'd still rather have a Lakland or a G&L over a Cort, and when I say 'All Things', I mostly mean resale value lol Anyway, I do hear that the CIJ's are as good if not better than the MIA's, but seeing as they've just put their prices up, purchasing one with the same spec as the MIA's will now cost you a similar amount of bunce. The cheaper ones have bassword bodies etc, might as well buy a squier! Si

The cheeky beggar! I don't mind really cos he's a good mate (the 'Fell Silent' boys are ace), and I think him and Acle are working closely together on recording projects, it was Acle who recorded that particular demo for us! But yeah, anyway.... ....I'm half way through recording that last song, 'The Saviour' I'm really happy with how the whole process has gone actually, the general sound I've gotten for the parts is really nice and meaty! Other little things are that I've improved my pick technique and learned a lot about Cubase (hey it's a start). I'll try and maybe do a video or something of the last part of this song I'm recording now......or put up some sneak peeks of the bass parts or something!! I know it's only been a short diary, and it's not finished yet.... but thanks for reading!! I'll probably just keep updating it with relevant album news including mixing, mastering, artwork and release info as well!. Si
