Easyer said than done but .... how do i put this .... i try not to get to stressed/ angry with myself for not being able to get somthing right, cause then all the nasty little cogs in your head start turning an BOOM the mood is blown an you cant hear the sound in your head cause your blind by the $%^&*&^%$£$%^&* going through your head of what should be happing but isnt happing .... take a break !! less is more !! an all that s**t ... dont no if that made any sence, was talking to myself mainly i think... hence typing here an not practicing over there .....

  3. I try an keep my gear in the best condition as i possably can, as it took a lot of staying in and saving up etc, to aquire over the years so i try to look after it an think thats the diffrence between it getting [i]used[/i] and not [i]abused[/i] Had my stingray an genz-benz from new an thay got a few scars here an there but saying that so have i and i was aparently new myself at one point There there to be played and enjoyed at the end of the day so what ever floats your boat. My personal oppinion on "road worn" stuff is ..... well my oppinion, not my cup of tea but for thoes who like them then there great (even the originals that there based on were new at one time (repeating myself here) an there not dents/scratchs that ive put on it so there of no concern of mine, so delibertaly defacing a guitar seems a bit ....... naw.... to me, im just happy growing old together with my guitars, Inbetween all that lot, a clean when you have finished playing never hurts
  4. Thats what i want for christmas. [url="http://flightcasewarehouse.co.uk/music/listproducts.asp?modelid=3984"]http://flightcasewarehouse.co.uk/music/lis...sp?modelid=3984[/url] Then a caring baggage handler to load it on ....... yeah exactly dream on but gotta do what you can cause at the end of the day there is no ammount of insurance that can replace a guitar that you are attatched to , there are 100s like the one you got but no two are the same, its yours an you wanna keep it that way But thank you to all who have put up idears and sugestions in this thred, been a great read an helpful (just wish could say the same about airports )
  5. [quote name='waynepunkdude' post='679321' date='Dec 9 2009, 06:05 PM']They even look crap when their typed out [/quote] NERRRRR!!!! want one !!! ill quite happly give one a home many a home LOL yeah i got it bad an old a[size=7] BONGO! 4H[/size] gonna fix it heheheheh
  6. [quote name='bottomfeed' post='679841' date='Dec 10 2009, 03:20 AM']I use the EBS Octabass, I think it's the modern one.. (with the three way switch Lo, Mid, Hi settings....) excellent pedal! really delivers.... & stays stable even on lower notes.... [/quote] [quote name='NoirBass' post='679902' date='Dec 10 2009, 08:52 AM']+1 for the EBS, This is the one that always comes out with me. great tracking and warm tone, in a bomb proof box. I also use a Micro POG, This is a digital octaver therefore the tracking is perfect even on a low E. Not as warm as the EBS though. I tend to use the POG for the octave up and the EBS for Octave down.[/quote] That is the problem that im finding with the EH, get a great sound from it on higher notes, very full, bold, etc but it makes the E string vitutualy unusable
  7. [quote name='JHBASS' post='680458' date='Dec 10 2009, 05:54 PM']Heya, use the ashdown just like you do...and i love it! whats your verdict on it? I think it sounds amazing with a bit of a trebley sound put through it...or even a big muff....really weird synthy sounds! Hope you like the pedal![/quote] Im pretty happy with it , brought it s/h of ebay at a very low price so for what i got cant complain, its nicly built in the respect that the controls are out of the way so cant be accidently moved, (the ??? output ?? meter lol, well o.t.t but ok ) just find it a bit to trebly... but sounds good with a chorus infront of it) on a whole its a good pedal
  8. Thanx to everybody for replys, was just looking at the "E.B.S, octabass" (the later version) anybody had any dealings with one of theses? ta.
  9. Same style thred as ive just put up but about octave deviders this time. As before i picked this up on fleebay pretty cheep , im happy with it in every sence but my findings are that its very limited (theres only a couple of setting on it that i find work nicely i.e theres a very fine line between getting a nice sound out of it an mushy noise??) so again ... same question... who uses what much thanx again Dan..
  10. Just having a general ask about Envelope filters, who uses them an what model do you use. Ime currently useing an Ashdown bass envelope filter, i picked it up secondhand of fleebay quite cheeply when at the time i was looking at getting a BOSS auto-waw So the question is , what do you use? an how does it rank? Much thanx Dan...

  13. [quote name='gnasher1993' date='Dec 5 2009, 08:51 PM' post='675252'] My current board... It'll change within a week or so, I have no doubt about that. I no how you feel, drive myself mad fiddling with the board all the time, swapping them about, settings etc that by the time you have got it set somthing like get that "board" (pun intended ) that a dry lead seems to be the way forward, then a chorus pedal sneeks its way back in an before you no it back ware you started, cable ties an velcro everyware, its all good fun , if it wasnt then there wouldnt be a point!!

    Boss SYB-5

    Just found this on eBay....

  17. Yeah i picked mine up pretty cheap (with out trying it first) an more than happy with it, the construction of it doesnt seem to sturdy but for the sound i get from it , full marks.

    Distortion?

    [quote name='Protium' post='650148' date='Nov 9 2009, 09:43 PM']ODB-3 with some tweaking on the settings[/quote] Totaly agree, there reasonably cheep to pic up , bomb proof construction, an can use it as a booster al the way through the spectrum to heavy gain. recomend
  20. the dunlop ones i mentioned work the same as the bottle washer (twist it on an twist it off) (just a posh version of washer i guess) have a look for em next time you in a music shop, most places stock them ive got a couple kicking about somware just not needed them since got planetwaves strap
  21. [quote name='Paul S' post='668911' date='Nov 29 2009, 08:42 AM']Danny - is that the standard guitar version or do they do a bass one, too? Looks like an elegant solution, I must say.[/quote] Not to sure if there is a thicker version but can imagen that there is, i got given this strap a few years ago an it suits me perfect, but be worth having a look on a planetwaves site for alternatives. [quote name='Deep Thought' post='668972' date='Nov 29 2009, 11:05 AM']I don't claim to be an expert here, but I recall somebody here had a Comfort Strapp of some sort break-it had a plastic buckle that snapped. I have a feeling it wasn't one of the 'proper' Comfort Strapps, but one made by somebody else. Personally I hate the look of them, with those bare neoprene pads. I won't use a strap with any kind of buckle, especially plastic-I prefer the all-leather ones. I've recently been converted to the Grolsch washer system-my Shuker JJ came with standard strap buttons, and having spent ages in recent years trying to keep Schaller straplock buttons from coming unscrewed, I decided to stick with the Grolsch washers-even when Jon Shuker offered to send me a set of Schallers for free! So far I've been very pleased. Our drummer found me a nice blue washer from a bottle of water the other day-wish I knew which brand of water, he only could only get me one (from a posh hotel). It's a bit less obtrusive than the red ones.[/quote] And with the bottle washer, "dunlop" do a simular kind of thing, like a twist&lock function an can get them from most music shops for less than £2 each , (fit over standard strap buttons etc).
  22. Ive got a "planetwaves" strap that has straplocks on it, rubber on the back of it so it doesnt make a sound when fitted & fits over existing strap buttons, ive had it a couple of years now an its been great to me , fits my stingray nicely. sorry dont have a link to them but shouldnt be hard to find on google.
