    Man to have that behind you onstage must have been immense. Epic rig, GLWTS

    Terrible news, sorry to hear that

    Sold Chris a set of DR strings, was an absolute pleasure to deal with, but then I knew that would be the case because when I met him earlier this year he proved himself to be a top bloke (and rather fine player too)

    Oh man the 4x8 cab sounded glorious. Wasn't too good at being super loud but sounded soooo sweet
  5. Merton
    I also had a v type 4x8 combo, 48kg if I recall. Ouch! Never had a Twin Valve, quite fancy the Quatra Valve but rarer that a rare thing from raresville...

    Buy it and if you decide you don't like it I'll chew your arm off for it

    No longer available, I missed out on the other ampo I was after CTM100 Bought from Walbassist in January of this year, reasonably gigged but in excellent condition. Comes with a 4mm padded Roqsolid cover. This is a superb gigging amp and the only reason I'm considering selling is a slightly special Ashdown valve head has been spotted which I quite fancy! If that goes then this is no longer for sale... No longer for sale ABM500 EVOII Bought from chenzman in July, this has seen better days cosmetically but has just been given a clean bill of health from Ashdown, plus a clean up of the pots and front panel! Price reflects its cosmetic condition, electrically and sonically this thing sings beautifully. I appreciate there are other ABM500 amps for more money on here, I'm not trying to undercut them but the cosmetic condition of e other examples is superior to mine so they are worth every penny more if that is something which concerns you. Plus I am passing on the great price I paid! No longer for sale

    Brand new, unopened, box still in the plastic wrapping. Found when sorting through things, decided to stick with Status Half rounds for my new ACG Finn (still in gestation!) so these are up for grabs 45-65-85-105-125 SOLD

    Looks great! I wonder if they'll tolex the other cabs in the future...?
  11. Merton
    Sounds like a cracking deal to me

    So when can I come and [s]steal her[/s] have a fumble?

    Does this work well with pedals like the Aguilar Octamiser which can be a bit gnarly with active basses? I'm wondering if giving the Octamiser it's own loop will eradicate any signal and buffering losses of having a single chain...?

    [quote name='Prime_BASS' timestamp='1417462672' post='2620638'] After a money scare recent this went up for sale, but something else is sold and I get to keep this. Still does the round at rehearsals. The 33" scale and the weight make for long playing periods an absolute breeze. I will be changing the passive wiring that Alan prescribes to the traditional Vol, Vol and Tone. The rotary system is nice but something about either or systems bug me. And series switching isn't my thing at all. [/quote] Glad you've got to keep it I've gone for the same pickup compliment in my Finn (currently in gestation) but I've gone for an active blend pot with passive tone, as I don't use the active tone controls on my Status but I do use the blend pot for the same reasons you are going V/V/T I'm guessing it'll make sod all different to the tone..?

    [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1417420690' post='2620052'] i'm not sure a 60s style P with flats will ever sound like an active Traben - and the Traben will never nail the P bass thing either. What you have just discovered, in time for christmas, is a reason to get another bass.... or two. [/quote] Sensible, and accurate, advice

    [quote name='Funky Dunky' timestamp='1417296532' post='2619007'] Touring again, but only US dates so far. Please baby Jesus, let them come to these shores! I will actually wee myself! Anybody else a fan? These guys really wowed me - what a band, what a singer, and what a rhythm section! [/quote] They were supposed to be touring Europe in oct but pulled the shows about a week before due to wanting to finish the album. I was bummed out as I had tickets for the London show - got a refund obviously. I too came in backwards, started with Stain (love it) and discovered more and more gems going back in time. Funnily enough just yesterday decided to give Colleidoscope another go as I found it a bit "meh" ten years ago. Quite liking it this time around but the production of both this and Chair In the Doorway wind me up. A bit souless. Will def see them again though, first time I caught them was 2002 at the Forum and it was one of my favourite ever gigs

    Sounds great But then I already knew that haha
  19. Merton

    [quote name='0175westwood29' timestamp='1416395882' post='2609679'] from playing amps with valve pre's for along time this little thing really does blow them away, sounds aleast to me very full and breaks up lovely, yes some noise comes when you crank the gain but this happens on alot of amps. played thru my full pedalboard today, which includes alot of fuzz, dirt and also a overdive/boost handles them all very well, yes ive had to change settings on a few but thats to be expected with a new amp. as you can see from my sig im selling a few bits to grab the 100w [url="http://s245.photobucket.com/user/0175westwood29/media/IMG_0231.jpg.html"][/url] [/quote] Nice rig, and good work on going for the CTM100 as well, you'll love it I'm sure

    [quote name='Prime_BASS' timestamp='1416380540' post='2609505'] Price is 'negotiable' [/quote] Don't encourage him
  25. Merton
    [quote name='BluRay' timestamp='1416299323' post='2608718'] Then the 100 should be ideal. Its a filthy fuzz machine when cranked a bit. [/quote] Yes, it's lush!
