  2. 2 x 4 1 x 5 1 x 6 All fretted Si
  3. [quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1506670835' post='3380244'] I was undecided about the nut. Still am. Also changed my mind and will opt for the standard bridge and Delano pickup. I'll keep looking at the pic while I am away! [/quote] I didn't like their standard bridge, it's solid enough, but adjusting intonation is overly fiddly and a bit annoying. I would pay the extra and have a hipshot if you don't go with the mono-rail. Si

    Anyone had any thoughts on this vs the Eventide H9? (aside from the fact that patches cost extra on the H9). Si
  10. Ooooo, a boxed black label MIT!? Not too many of them around! If I didn't already have one, I'd be on it! GLWTS Si
  11. M25 southbound is pretty slow, probably a result of M3 closure Si
  12. Someone mentioned the FX-25B earlier, that sounds great, I really liked it, but it had a very noticeable volume dip when switched in, so unfortunately useless for me live. If they reissued it (as they've been doing recently) with that particular foible resolved, I'd definitely have one! Si
  13. Joe's Pedals is always a good shout: http://www.joespedals.com Si
  14. [quote name='toneknob' timestamp='1506066701' post='3376165'] Can you explain this in easy words so I can relay it to a curious old person. thanks! [/quote] They make the individual bass, guitar, drum, vocal audio tracks available. If you have recording software such as Pro Tools, Logic, Cubase etc, you can import the individual instruments you want as a backing track, and play along. The suggestion here is that you can load everything but the bass part and 'be Joe Dart' for a bit I'm seeing them in London tomorrow, thought I was going to miss it due to playing myself, but gig got cancelled......hooorray! Si
  15. I put the Hipshot version on a JV Squire Jazz maybe 6months ago, I felt it made an instant positive difference! I actually have a lot of time for Hipshot products, they seem to nail it every time! Si
  16. I've gigged with just a Midget and they're deceptively loud (with my Markbass Little Marks)!! They obviously benefit for a bit of elevation closer to your ear. A guitarist mate has a couple of the Treble N Bass amps, slightly older, with the original cabs (which were 1x15 I think). I've done some recording through them, and I don't think it's the cab situation that will be your issue. They're just 50 Watt tube amps, so putting bass through them, they're probably going to start breaking up before you get to a medium gig volume.....which might be the tone you're after. Si
  17. I should say that I'm not suggesting "buy the MXR, it's all you need", just that it's my experience that it's brilliant. I would actually also say "buy them all" and see which you prefer, if you buy used, you won't lose much (or anything) if you then sell them on. Si
  18. Because the MXR has a clean blend, it helps retain all of your low end, which is what a LPF would typically do. Agreed, a band-pass with no clean blend would be a bit pants. To be fair, the MXR can do a lot more than 'quacky sounds', they're the sounds I really dislike from envelope filters actually, that whole generic slap funk filter sound. I use it to get nice slow and low vowel sounds. Si
  19. I've gigged a few and my personal favourite is the MXR. Whether it's what you need.....don't know, but it sounds perfect to my ears (and for my needs). Si

    Boss GT-1B

    Most of these sentiments seem to be similar of my experience with the MS-3. Most of the sounds were great, loved having the Defretted and Slow Gear sounds back after selling my ME-50B. But I found the workflow quite fiddley, gave up doing it on the unit as it took too long, so did it on the Mac Librarian software.....and even then couldn't get it to do what I wanted.....oh well. Great sounds (mostly), but just a bit difficult to use. Sticking with my Line6 M5 for now. Si
  21. All done, VT1-Pro incoming (When ready of course) Cheers Si
  22. Standard stuff, pickup, tuners, bridge. I had one years ago, it was fine.....think I'd prefer one of the older Squire Vista series though. Si
  23. [quote name='naxos10' timestamp='1505391870' post='3371566'] Dave, How would the Spitfire version look in the original plane's colours? [/quote] Generally speaking, a pedal screen print will stick to one colour, once you start adding more colours (which many builders do of course), the price rises. So I suspect we're limited to one colour against the colour of the enclosure. Si
  24. I have a couple of M80 cases and think they're excellent, best balancing case ever when you're carrying using the side handle. I don't have the discomfort when wearing both straps, but then i'm not overly broad and only 5'10", so very comfortable to me. My only minor gripe is that I wish they had a tad more padding in the bottom, but I think that probably just means I'd be a littler better suited to the Vertigo. Will look at that closer if and when they need replacing. I also have a Fusion F1 bag which is excellent for the money, really good alternatives to the M80, although not quite as comfortable strapped on for me. Si
