    Hey Everyone! After getting a few Jaco Pastorious CDs from my dad (he lives in New Orleans now! Practically gave me a bucket of jazz ) and playing around and trying (yet to no such success) to convince my friend to give me money so "we" can by a squire Fretless I got too thinking, just HOW like the orginal home done fretless jazz, that jaco used is teh Fender version, what i'd like to know mostly is the Removed resistor, does the Fender CS do that? just how faithful too the story is it! do that have a removed resistor or not? of so is it made with out it or with THEN removed, might be key to tone! Just wondering if anyone knows, as the squire i (hopelessly, with my lack of any fretless playing) We played had had a resistor removed in hommage, and had different Pots (one last question, how di pots effect tone? like whats the difference between having a 250K and a 500K pot?) Jeez! I think i need a lie down.... A.C P.S! At £2200+ i don't think i can afford to pick one up and see

    [quote name='Lfalex v1.1' post='922789' date='Aug 12 2010, 02:28 PM']Not a fan of Rotos at all, I'm afraid. Am I to deduce from the second statement that you use flatwounds? Does Sheehan, too? I'm not a Fanboy, but none of the strings I've tried sound quite right. And they're all rounds. I might just have to revert to "Plan A"; DR Fatbeams or Hi-Beams. Any D'Addario or LaBella recommendations out there? The Attitude has lots of fundamental output and bags of lower mid-range. It's just that little bit of upper-mid singing and top-end sparkle that's missing. Thanks for your thoughts so far...[/quote] Ah! sorry for a late second reply i meant FLATwounds Arg! Sorry for any confusion =S but till last week i had 2 steve harris strings (E,A)and two Labellas on (D,G) Sorry!

    Any chance you'd be around Aberdeen for some reason I'd love one of those, i that colour Though i REALLY shouldn't spend anything, no bread on the table me! haha

    I don't know enough about the Split P to make a call, BUT i would really really like one! Plus Dimarzio have tat new solderless pickguard pickup change thingy. I don't Like Semour duncans but thats just me, all my bass buddies from around town have every bass with them i think! (various models that is!) Also are you sure about the SPB-3? I've always liked the SPB-1 ALOT more, but again just me! I am actually probably going to get a new standard P-bass and put a Dimarzio split p in sometime in the next 12 months, but if you don't want to wait i'd say the dimarzios even though i've used them once, but Dimarzios are great! Also i am addicted to HOT pickups. ^^ ALL IMHO

    I've always used rotosound haha, i even use the Sheehan set now as i like the even tensions and the growl, Depends on the sound your after, I had my Attitude strung up with Coated Ernie balls for a while, but i went back to rotosound as i like the feel, Plus my sound is 110% about growl, i've been told to turn it all down but i'm not even half way! Also got a great roundwound sound from the Attitude Thats just what i've done, take from it what you will! You could try the Optima Gold ones haha i've been dying to try that out some day! You could try d'addario strings? I used them on a friends Sheehan style P-bass and it sounded pretty good! very clean and nicely crisp just my Two pennies

    one in almost flawless condition went for £200 not too long ago BIG mistake for the seller, great deal for someone though! i'd say £400 is a great price, i wish i could have it :'( best of luck with the sale mate!

    [quote name='bassbiscuits' post='918780' date='Aug 8 2010, 03:01 PM']Mmm - nice amp! I'd be interested in this if i can sell my Ashdown head - I have a couple of GK cabs already and they are fantastic! Just curious - with one cab (4x10) would you just use the woofer output and not the tweeter/horn thing?[/quote] Not if i shift my Ashdown gear first! Then i'll buy this hahaha! Its on I think i might lose though...

    Ahh! Too bad i live in Scotland, i've been wanting one of these to come up, well plus i still need my friend to by my amp so i have so money! Bump on me and a +1 to what Delberthot said!

    I know the feeling man! I was filling for a friend who was ill but still wanted his band to gig, but some guy tells me i'm rubbish and i can't sing in tune (the second bit is right haha) just practise and like others have said just try and stay away from them, and when your 100 times better and happier than them you can just take it with a pinch of salt

    If you've played the RBX and liked it, why not? Its a bit cheaper isn't it? and may as well stick to what you know if it is cheaper then i'd say go for it!

    [quote name='andy67' post='908737' date='Jul 28 2010, 11:05 PM']Aww, thanks man - cheers for the kind words. And nope! It dates from Nov. 1989. Anytime you are down most welcome to come round for some tea and cakes and try them out. cheers andy[/quote] 1989? Not to make anyone feel old but thats from before my older brother was born (only a year before mind you!) Sounds like a plan for some time in the future, I love tea and cakes, especially the cakes but Haha MB1 Bumpo on me too!

Thats pretty cool, i wonder how thick the neck is, and if there are small divots when the frets are in, probably thinking about how it is likely to work

    Fancy giving me that Attitude for £180 Love the earlier ones, from before i was born i think though I can say 1+ for this set up and for Andy being a lovely guy (we had a back and forth about ashdown stuff if you didn't remember, incase you thought i was just some wierdo haha!)

    [quote name='dirtystatic' post='908307' date='Jul 28 2010, 03:45 PM']Budget is about £600. I've seen two that came close, one was the Fender Jazz Aerodyne... fits the bill but I'm not a fan of how it looks. The other is the Fender Deluxe P-bass Special... but that's active.[/quote] The Aerodyne is A beauty... As is the Duff Mckagen Couldn't you just Get a P-bass standard or what ever you get for you money however much you have/ can find stuff and add a Single coil? I was thinking about doing that, as i've never played teh Aerodyne and doubt i ever will, (due to highland livin'!) and i can't get along with Jazz bass necks "/

    [quote name='BassKS' post='907263' date='Jul 27 2010, 04:19 PM']Hey man, it would help your sale if you fixed the typo on the title Ashdown instead of Ahdown. Just so that when people search for the brand your stuff comes up as well. Best of luck with the sale.[/quote] HA! Didn't notcie that, thanks mate, i need all teh luck i can get i need this shifted for as solid a price as soon as possible :/

    [quote name='3V17C' post='907253' date='Jul 27 2010, 04:08 PM']to be honest, neither of my Yamaha Attitudes get much use these days... so there is a [i]vague[/i] possibility they might come up for sale in the not too distant future.... peace c[/quote] i am begging you keep it for one more year, that one 1) you can see if you really want to sell one of them and 2) i could afford one (how much were you thinking?) this is more PM talk but still haha sorry! just a quick question, how are you/have you recorded stuff? I've been thinking about doing some solo stuff for a while too..
  23. AttitudeCastle

    Hey Guys, Putting this up quick before i forget and i will update and add pictures Orignal MAG (non Evo) head good-(ish?) condition, same condition as when i got it used a bit ago a note is a small burn mark on the top, where i'm guessing a cigeratte was laid on the amp? Though i have no idea, and it doesn't stink The cab is in a bit better shape, blue speakers (they sound better, honest), one of the plastic corner protectors was off when i bought it and the guy had lost it Reason for selling? I need some money, and hopefully a bit to start a new amp fund PICTURES ASAP I'm being hopeful in £220 together i [b]will not[/b] go below £200 as then it would be worth me selling it Tbh No trades please, straight sale ideally based in New east scotland (Aberdeen) will/can meet up with in 20 miles, and if you are else where and can organise your own courier i will go splits on that cost (70/30 i was thinking? Myself the 30) I was being silly before, this a good amp and the 410 really does push air, PHAT sound, which is also why i'm selling, thats not really the sound i like, though the hart of the sound still is an Ashdown P.M would be fasted way to get an answer if you have questions. Sorry this is so long Regards Adam
