  1. Past hour
  2. The End - The Doors
  3. @bass_dinger, you checked the best pianos in the sub £600 category, but you didn't try the last contender, the Casio PS-X1100, which is worth a try as Casio is not a cheapy maker anymore. Check this video, or the links in the links (yes, the first link opens the shop ad where you can find all the details and the full review link down under) in the description for more in depth reviews. PS: He always speaks in Canadian dollars, which makes a huge difference. 😉
  4. So it’s not necessary to use some specialist hifi speaker cable?
  5. Very generous of you. I was tempted to send you a message but would still get told off for bringing any more gear into the house!!
  6. Start! - The Jam
  7. I have read that Sandberg has made a new bridge with more mass to increase sustain. Do you know anything about this? In terms of sound, how does this new bridge affect in the sound? Yes, more sustain but anything else? closer to a vintage sounds?
  8. I’m a big fan of changing out pickups, but at this level I don’t think any tonal change would amount to anything worth noting. I like the colour, it’s different, without being outlandish, to my eyes.
  9. I totally agree, that would be my lack of thought about it 😆
  10. Luca does a video play though of all his basses he’s built. I was looking to change out the pickup for a Emg Gzr or a quarter pounder but honestly the stock pickup is decent! Measures 10.8k with alnico 5 magnets.
  11. Look on YouTube, Luca posts a lot of his work with sound samples, lots of lovely 51' style basses.
  12. Boxed Valeton effect strip/DI, after market PSU. used in cover band situations good basic effect package in a sturdy metal case.

  13. I owned a WAL mk2 and a mk3 and the mk3 body carving was irrelevant. My arm was nowhere near. If you're designing your own bass, I wouldn't bother with it. The mk 2 was ok and probably helped a little.The mk1 looks more like the Fender style body carved shape. Can't hurt to do the same but I never played a mk 1.
  14. Me too. Did you get a reply? I'm not sure this is still available...
  15. I don't think it came stock on this bass. I've read somewhere, that around that time Fender had a product line of brass aftermarket parts that could be used for "upgrading". I remember a local advertisement where this bridge was offered in it's original blister packiging. Also loose bridge saddle assamblies could be purchases from that seller from old shop stock, and probably other hardware parts though.
  16. Replied to in October. Still available.
  17. Yes it is.
  18. Now £330.00. This amazing emulation of the acoustic control corporation 360 preamplifier with variamp and built in fuzz is up for grabs. Hand made by the renowned JC Maillet and commissioned and imported by myself at great cost. I have used the 360+ for studio recordings, gigs, rehearsals and at home, it has never dissapointed. The preamp sounds fantastic and the fuzz section is the best I have used. I have owned this pedal for a good few years from new, as can be seen it's in pristine condition. Specially sourced UK power supply also included. Will happily run from other sources with the right leads (I used it with a trex chameleon). Fully detailed printed instruction manual also included. Only available as I have more preamplifiers than I can use. Try out/collection always welcome, or UK insured postage for £15.00

  19. That's good stuff 😁 Hope you're well, mate.
  20. Ooh, tricky, I play in several bands - but the main one I suppose is the one I'm most invested in which is our Renaissance-Folk band 'Minstrels Guild'. We play a mix of authentic renaissance ballads and dance music, as well as Blackmore's Night covers, and ballads written ourselves in the style of renaissance music. Sadly, we have our last UK gig on the 19th December and quite what the future holds musically is unknown as we're moving to the Republic of Ireland next year. It might be that we keep going via a YouTube channel and Bandcamp. Or we might hook up with local musicians and go in a new direction.
  21. Saw Hans Zimmer in Manchester. Incredible band, three basses at once at times and at least two drummers, all in harmony. Didn’t like getting to co op live though, took an hour from Mancunian way to the car park, and the food and drink prices were extortion.
