    [quote name='Jarhead' post='589776' date='Sep 4 2009, 03:49 PM']I would take just a DI, as any further tone shaping past pedals would probably make it difficult for the sound man. That's why DI's are usually taken pre-EQ from the head/combo/pedal. Also, I tried the bass metaphors earlier, and it seemed a bit pointless, as the distortion was barely noticeable, and the EQ didn't seem brilliant, but it may have been a dodgy unit.

    [quote name='obbm' post='589626' date='Sep 4 2009, 01:18 PM']I've revoiced the EQ section (changed the capacitors) on mine for bass i.e. same as Alembic F1X, Trace V-series, BBE Bmax-T. Just need to put it all back together now.[/quote] Whhhhhhat???? Now you've got me interested!! I've love the Alembic pre amps and i've always regretted selling my F2-B. Love to hear your thoughts on it once you've got a back together.

    I've got a few gigs coming up where traveling light would be an advantage. I'll be taking my English muff'n for my sound and maybe a chorus and delay pedal. Do you guys in the know think that I should get something like the Electro harmonix [url="http://www.ehx.com/products/bass-metaphors"]Bass Metaphors[/url] or something like it for more tonal control??? or will I be ok with my just my set up being D.I.ed

    up for sell is my Fireglo Tokai Rickenfaker..... I've spent alot of money on parts to make it sound look like the real deal. I've now got a real Rickenbacker 4001 body coming from the States so I'm thinking sell the Tokai would help to pay for a lot of the parts i'm going to need! Please mail me if you'd like some pics Ian

    Good to see more BB fans like myself- they are Fantastic basses!!!! I've got two 1200s and a 1200 and had a 1000s and a modded 300. I'm on the look out for another BB 1200 in sunburst ............

    found pics of my old Alembic pre amp , really regret selling it ! Anyway I was wondering how much it would cost to get a copy built for me..... with maybe an effects loop for my noisey old chorus pedal.

    [quote name='funkmunky' post='527036' date='Jun 28 2009, 08:31 PM']Hi, I'm a bit confused as to what's going on with the sale of this bass on ebay... There are two Dearmond Starfire basses which look the same (one has the pickguard taken off). The write up is very similar but the user ID is different. One is based in Rickmansworth, one in Bucks. They end within an hour of each other... Also your listing is the same as the previous sellers.... The completed listing for the sale of this bass was on 25th June.... looks like you had it for 3 days? What's the score? Steve[/quote] Don't know about the one in Bucks (i'll look) as for my listing yep it's the same as the previous sellers as I thought I couldn't add any more than he had as it was spot on. Yes I've had it for 3 days - but as I said in a previous post- I couldn't get on with the short scale, so nothing sinister. I just realised litaraly within half an hour of getting home with it that I'd made a mistake. i'm bloody gutted as it is a fantastic bass.....

    [quote name='BigBeatNut' post='526583' date='Jun 28 2009, 11:17 AM']Wow ... didn't take you very long to figure out you didn't like it [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120435149737"]LINK[/url][/quote] I know!!! I put it though it's paces and it sounds the dog dangles - but I just can't get on with the short scale! I'm tempted to keep it just to look at it, it's lovely, but seriously I know i'm not going to play it- damn it
