It sure is and I will admit that I am a big U2 fan, or at least up until Achtung Baby. Certainly the music they were releasing throughout the 80's is for me absolutely incredible. There was also a bunch of bands that were universally liked at the time by young people. We all had our favorites but bands like U2, Simple Minds, The Alarm, Big Country were grouped together and then there were others like Echo and The Bunnymen, The Cure, INXS, Tears For Fears and to some extent The Mission were also very much liked by the same groups.

Lovely very light jazz bitsa bass. I've just bought a super G&L SB2 Tribute from Matt in Aberdeen and need to stick to my one-in-one out policy (severe risk of divorce if I don't stick to this promise...). This bass has been owned by quite a few Basschatters and I bought it off cdog and am selling it for what I bought it for off him. It's a superbly playable bass which sounds fantastic with a terrific neck and is perfect for anyone who wants to gig with a jazz bass without the back pain. Key specs are: Weight 3.2kg - Empress wood body. Bridge is a Gotoh 201B Tuners are Hipshot Ultralights Pickups are Entwistles - Neck is ceramic and Bridge Neo Kiogon Jazz loom with Alpha pots. All cavities are insulated with copper tape. F-decal. There are more details on the other threads on this bass over the the years on Basschat. I have the box Matt sent the G&L in so can post.

Anyone Recognise Any Of The Signatures?
binky_bass replied to binky_bass's topic in General Discussion
Well I've just bought it. If the signatures are legitimate and done by the likes of Alice Cooper, Geezer Butler, BSC, Ian Paice, Kerry King etc. then it's a steal and I'll very much enjoy having it in the studio! If they're not legit, then I still think its a decent enough price for a Gibson Studio Les Paul with Gibson hard case. Roll dem dice! -

Feeling fancy with this one:
-
The Ampeg Rocket Bass combos have the same style Rolex and grille as the cabs that go with the PF50T. The B100R is a cool amp too, if you can find one.
-
The Fender Bassman TV is a great sounding amp, and available in various sizes (10, 12, 15 and 2x10" configurations). Quite heavy, but if it's not getting moved much it's an interesting option.

I had been doing them with a very janky sort of approach that was made very annoying by iOS refusing to mix my interface together properly. My woes are here: https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/509698-ios-video-app-audio-stupidity-work-round/ I solved it with far more cables than I ever wanted to use! Sounded ok though: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DGI_tSFswQC/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== I've since got a Line 6 HX Stomp which solves all the problems with far fewer cables - apart from a mains cable. I was using a powered board in that vid but I really wanted something more portable that I could go direct with just a battery powered compressor pedal. Then I could sit in the garden with my headphones and play along too. So this new Roland unit seems to be a great idea for a battery powered option. I then trimmed the video using the free version of Capcut. It's pretty good! -
Incidentally, the pcb does look rather close to the metal case - is there insulation on the underside?

One of my sons "borrowed" my B2A some years ago, so I don't have access to it just now (it does have the XLR output). Hopefully the wiring diagram further up the thread helps - if not, let me know and I will ask him to send me a photo of the wiring.

I found a couple of used ones on eBay, but I think the new version is https://www.roland.com/us/products/gomixer_pro-x/. A bit more expensive but I'm thinking about new version - as well as the IG stuff, it would be great for creating live performance promo clips for a couple of bands that I'm involved in. -
Agreed. I was "chased" out of Guitar Guitar just last week by a young would-be slap-bass player who was set up to demo a bass literally less than 3 metres from where I was quietly noodling. He was loud and sounded awful. Bad marks to both him and to the staff for not separating us. The Epsom branch is huge so there was no need. Rant over,back to the topic 😂
-
I think there are enough springs to change them all. However I would try the bad one first and cry for help needed.
