  1. Why not ? It's got two of your actual split coil pickups (although not looking like them I agree). One has a Ceramic magnet and t'other Alnico.

    Sorry , what was I thinking. I still reserve the right to act as your official food taster though.

    Moffat Bass Bash 9.

    I can strongly recommend this. Great venue, plenty of gear to try out; Dave Swift coming along; and the not inconsiderable matter of afternoon cakes provided by team Cringean, including the now legendary luminous green jelly ones. Curry night on the Saturday preceded by a dry sherry or two. What's not to like; roll up, roll up.
  4. [quote name='Woodinblack' timestamp='1448217937' post='2913773'] Have you ever wondered if you maybe had a bit of a problem.. [/quote] [quote name='Dazed' timestamp='1448221070' post='2913808'] Dude does Alan work for you? How many ACGs is that now. Obviously only 2 for the purposes of domestic harmony [/quote] Yes definitely a got an ACG related problem Aside for the family harmonious duo, it's entirely possible there are three others; Mum's the word people
  5. Finally got my hands on a Harlot today, and looking forward to many happy hours with her on my lap. Here's a pic to prove it: Absolutely fabulous bass, thanks very much Alan. Two split coil pickups too
  6. Picked up the bass this afternoon, and here's a pic.
  7. I love them, they are on all my fretted basses. The balanced tension thing works for me at any rate.
  8. Don't know, seems like a really nice bass and I was highly tempted last time it was up for sale. Still am tbh. If I had the readies I'd have bought it already as a 2-octave Jazz-type bass is my preferred combination. Still saving up atm.
  9. Here we go, my new ACG. Not in my sweaty mits until Sunday but here's a taster.
  10. These are great preamps. Have one in one of my ACGs, think of it as having two configurable tone controls.
  11. How about travel basses. Depending on budget how about something like this, I've played this very bass and it is nice and light (Alan at ACG is also building some very lightweight basses):[font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [url="http://www.acguitars.co.uk/acg_admin/wordpress/portfolio/4413/"][font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#0000ff"]http://www.acguitars.co.uk/acg_admin/wordpress/portfolio/4413/[/color][/size][/font][/url]
  12. Excellent news. This is the bass with the piezo in the nut is it not? I presume the usual forum rules about pictures apply.
  13. This just in... [sharedmedia=core:attachments:204700]
  14. Just acquired one of these beasties (in natural ash). Nice bass, just experimenting with tapewound strings at the moment.

  15. I wonder if this treatment would work as well with a darker body colour? I'd get that fence done to match now.
  16. Absolutely agree, but where's the fun in being sensible?
  17. I have an ACG Jazz and a Warwick Streamer CV Jazz bass. Neither have an Alder body but both are great sounding basses and would be within your budget used. Just tried to post some pics/links but not managed for some reason. If you're near you are welcome to come and try them.
  18. [quote name='eude' timestamp='1446201761' post='2897633'] Congratulations mate! Fantastic bass you've got there! I'm a massive ACG fan, and the filter preamps are just ridiculously good, just wait till you try the DFM version you get in the custom and uber basses... Enjoy! Eude [/quote] What Eude said. Although I really like the SEQ as well.
  19. [quote name='eude' timestamp='1445961756' post='2895730'] You could pop this into any bass and see if the ACG filter pre might be for you? [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/271257-acg-dual-pickup-filter-pre-amp/page__p__2886357"]http://basschat.co.u...age__p__2886357[/url] That's the simpler SEQ version, but its still very flexible and would give you a taster of how the full thing works... Eude [/quote] This is a very good suggestion, I have one of these on an ACG and they are very easy to get you head around quickly. Also worth noting If you want to try a bunch of ACGs then the Moffat bass bash is on 19-20 March
  20. A quick heads-up to all who like this kind of thing, The Watch are touring Trespass and Nursery Crime although this date in Manchester doesn’t appear to be on their website. It might be worth checking your local venue just in case there are other dates that are not yet published. http://bandonthewall.org/events/4875/
  21. [quote name='stevebasshead' timestamp='1445905665' post='2895347'] Engorged Michael [/quote] I think this might be on the wrong thread…
  22. Congrats, beautiful bass. Welcome to the fold.
