Nice! Do it

Now that I like! Very nice

[quote name='bass_ferret' post='356888' date='Dec 17 2008, 12:53 PM']As a famous player (I think it was Jamerson) once said, the funk is in the fingers. You can buy all the gear that player X uses, and believe me stick around here and you will see plenty of clones, put if you dont play like they do you wont sound like they do. The Ox always sounded like the Ox no matter what he was playing, even though some people did not like his later sound it was always Ox sound.[/quote] Slightly OT but following on from this, there's a thread on TB at the mo about Rocco Prestia needing a new amp - several guys are saying how they've seen him play Edens, SWRs, GKs etc etc and all the time just sounds the same. Same with me, I can play Ashdowns, Hartkes, Traces, etc etc and still always sound sh*t

I gave into temptation and, as a Christmas/ well-done-for-paying-off-a-chuink-of-CC-bill present I bought one from Coda on Monday, it arrived yesterday and immediately went into hiding in my old Trace head's flightcase so that Nic doesn't notice immediately It won't get a proper going over til Sunday's wedding but I have to say I'm dead excited! So when are you giving in?

Found a good way to solve problem #2: Sell a pedal, take another one off the board so the PSU is only supplying 3 pedals now. Clever!! Problem #1 less sure I can do anything about if it's a dicky switch, it's all so tightly crammed I'd probably bugger the whole thing up. Did discover that the battery my colleague had put in was deader than lime green tank tops with orange shirts though. Not sure if that could have affected it...

You have to be able to play backwards for that Sorry, not helpful. I actually have no idea what equipment was used on that, really must watch the Classic Albums thing...

Just sold my EBS Octabass to Dave, dead quick and easy, thanks! Hope you enjoy the pedal

I'll keep offering this as another amp suggestion coz I think it is so bargainous: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=26831"]Hartke LH500[/url] Mine turned up today, can't wait to plug it in!

Good to see it's arrived safely!

[quote name='Rich' post='355867' date='Dec 16 2008, 12:33 PM']My 500 quid has just bought me this: Result *hops excitedly from foot to foot, waiting for it to turn up*[/quote] Very nice too! The one SWR I've ever played through really impressed me. Enjoy

I wouldn't worry too much about power ratings - if the speakers don't like it you'll be able to hear! I'm going to be running the LH500 through a 240W 4x8 cab this weekend (8ohms, the LH500 produces about 350W at 8 ohms apparently) but as long as I'm careful with the volume and bass controls it'll all be fine

[url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=26831"]Have a look here[/url] - I've just got the LH500 (it arrived this morning). Can't wait to use it in anger tomorrow night

Rich, it's gorgeous. Muchly jealous. But happy re. the Streamline 5 news

[quote name='alexclaber' post='354867' date='Dec 15 2008, 10:59 AM']Thus we are all simply making wise investments. Alex[/quote] That's exactly how I sold it to my brain to persuade it to press "Buy"!
