throwoff

I have a left handed Washburn XB120 but its absolutley coveres in stickers and needs a proper overhaul It was my first bass so I wouldnt usually look to get rid of it but if its for a college and you have any lefties let me know

I have a Behringer limiter/enhance im selling on the bay atm The only down side is the plastic case and noisy switch It wouldt stand up to proper regular gigging but as a bedroom toy its great

Anyone know? I assume far east but anyone got a definate answer?

I do quite want something with a bit of colour. As I said I tried out the SVT DI and loved it as it had a real tone which is quite nice for a DI

I have a B410HE, its a great cab and I use it for practice and really love the sound. I agree having the 4ohm impedence is a pain but for a useable half stack it does the business. I agree about the covering though, it is somewhat flimsy compared to some other cabs

honestly TU-2 all the way for me but I did use one of these - [url="http://www.guitarampkeyboard.com/en/68855"]http://www.guitarampkeyboard.com/en/68855[/url] for many many years and it never let me down totally simple, tough and bright on a dark stage.

anyone who buys that really has no idea Everything on it is wrong

IGNORE THIS! I am going to get a quote from Southpaw about having it made

Im looking for a decent DI box to put in the back of my rack case as a back up for a S.H.T.F. situation with my head. I have used a behringer one for a few years and just want to upgrade to something that will give me a better tone if needs be. I have narrowed it down to a two choices- The first is that im boring and buy the sansamp bass driver which is solid compact and reliable, plus its simple so anyone would be able to work it out if I couldnt get to the amp for any reason. The second is that I try to hunt down an Ampeg SVT DI box which I dont think they make anymore, I remember trying one when they came out and being blown away but was a poor student and couldnt afford it.

I think im in the minority as well here. I do feel for you and its quite harsh that a mate would do that but to me a bass is a tool. It should be played and played and played until eventually it falls apart. That is its soul, thats what it exists to do. If that doesnt happen its just a plank of wood :/ Every ding and scrape in my instruments is just more life. I will gladley throw my bass around knowing that its never let me down yet and probably never will. I really hate people who have vintage or expensive instruments and dont play them or wrap them in cotton wool. That 52' Fender P you fantasise about should be played and thrown around because thats what it was born to do. Play it, trash it and then when its fianlly given up the ghost burn it and let its spirit be part of you.

At Mean Fiddler Halo Friendlies were supporting No Use for a Name. I got their album signed somewhere, she is more than fine. I think I just faded out for a moment remembering her being in a sweaty punk rock band and being so hot!

Kent fo' life

I really evolved into this set up, I have owned about 6 I believe amps over the last few years never quite finding the right tone, I have used so many different combos of pedals and amps and I think I finally nailed it with this one. I do a lot of recording and engineering so TBH the EQ was bought as much for that as I find it to be an incredibly usable tool when recording. I do like a lot of low end in my sound despite playing in a pop/punk/emo band at the moment I do avoid that tinny bass sound a lot of similar artists go for. The head only has the 3 band EQ so I bought the EQ pedal to give me a bit more scope as I didnt want to use a compressor but did want to push up my low ends. Its not a pedal I turn on and off really its just on but quite mild. The settings are not fixed either I often EQ to the room im in and having the GEB7 makes that a lot easier/

Mark[/quote] I think its a quality pedal, I honestly bought it as somewhat of a whim in Digital Village. I was in there to pick up some new mic's, I had heard it online and thought I would just give it a try out and the whole vibe just sold me there and then. Its got a hell of a lot for a pedal with seemingly so few functions. Having the options to switch between fuzz and drive is nice (mines almost exclusively on fuzz) and the tone control really does a lot. I have a big soft spot for EH anyway so perhaps im a little biased (I used to have a Bass balls and did go through a stage of using a Big Muff for my bass until it destroyed 2 amps) Definatly test it out first, the online videos etc really dont do it justice and playing with it reveals some very neat sounds.

It actually sounds better than I expected, I viewed the LM250 as a stepping stone amp to use for about 6 months until I had funds to get something bigger (Mark Classic or LM500) I had a massive problem whereby due to lack of funds and selling some gear I was left with an Ampeg B410 and an Ashdown MAG300 which was the wrong ohmage to run it. Thanks to getting a job I invested in the MB cab and head and tbh I really dont see any need to get a more powerful one. I have more than enough volume for small/medium gigs, tbh most gigs im DI'd so its not really needed to fill the house and im currently purchasing some Ultimate Ears E11 personal IE's so on stage volume is kind of irrelevent. I know its kind of shallow but there is an image thing to consider especially if you are aiming to make it as a band even on a small scale and the Head and cab definatly looks the business and honestly it sounds it too! If you are in Kent or SE area im more than willing to invite you round put the kettle on and let you shake my windows out!
