  1. [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1345028470' post='1772455'] I'll let others comment about the J, but the P is all about that fundamental sound. Nothing else quite delivers the bottom end in the same way and - for most people, and whether or not they realise it - the sound of a P is the sound they grew up hearing. Hearing a P is like coming back to your family home; it's just [u][i][b]right[/b][/i][/u]. [/quote] always feels right, but too boomy
  2. [quote name='bouvier' timestamp='1344968592' post='1771832'] Thought I had better inform you all, I have bought this bass along with the £170 Geddy Lee, £150 Marcus Miller and the £220 (a bit steep I know) Jacco Custom Shop Fretless. The seller has said that once his Uncle in Nigeria who works for the finance department clears a £5,000,000 cheque into my account they are mine. Do they need my PIN number and Password to pay a large cheque in [/quote]
  3. did you get it Gareth?
  4. Mick bought my Bassman. Top bloke - kept in touch throughout - genuine guy and easy to deal with. Cheers Mick
  5. Hey don't worry I'm on it, I've messaged him and no reply
  6. I think Sandberg, altho I guess less inconic than Wicks right now, has to be chucked in here. I've owned a Warwick, German made, and right now am on my second Sandberg. The Bergs are sensational instruments - and a whole lot better looking than Warwicks
  7. the wah sounds like fun
  8. thanks guys I suppose I meant more what it will do for my sound onstage - ie. by rolling the mid frequency up quite far, admittedly it's just on my practice amp right now, it creates a deeper sense of the mids, I'm imagining this will somehow give more presence to the sound in the mix?
  9. Have just acquired a bass with one of these - excited to use it this week in rehearsals. Can anyone give me a run down on what the mid-equaliser knob will do in a practical sense. Bass and treble cut and boost I obviously get. Thanks for any info
  10. Hi, it's pending a sale - I'll let you know if anything changes
  11. Proper punk tho eh? No, you're right, I will get to it - or just use another bass
  12. Yep, the DI was straight out of my amp - TC BH500 - with an XLR on the front panel -
  13. Actually Big Red that's just made me remember that the sound guy did ask if my amp had a ground lift switch
  14. [quote name='BOD2' timestamp='1344592690' post='1766748'] Were you mic'd up or using a DI ? The sound guy would probably hear the hum when monitoring just your badd through his headphones. If there's no hum at all when you're playing just with the bass and your amp then it could be the process of putting your bass through the PA is creating the hum. [/quote] so might it be because the jack socket is a bit dodge the bass hums through the PA?
  15. Hi, thanks the reply, the bass was DI'd I can't hear anything when playing normally in rehearsals etc - but this guy made it sound like it might become a problem
  16. that's the info off the website for the Barefaced Big baby right? Is this cab its predecessor then?
  17. as this no longer seems to be on the Barefaced website can u tell me a bit more about the specs - ie. power handling, speaker diameter etc
  18. Sound guy at my last gig said there was a faint ground hum coming from somewhere. The bass I used does have a slightly dodgy jack socket, the fit of the cable isn't great and I've been securing it with gaffa. Might it have been that poor connection that emitted a hum? Or would it most likely be coming from my amp? Can't hear any obvious hum close up when it's on. Cheers for any advice
  19. up atcha
  20. Some interest in this - sensible offers considered
