Lots of licenced Fender merch turns up in Tesco and Asda, decent quality at good prices. I just happen to be wearing this... -
The BEST compressor for bass guitar or other instruments. These are very rare; I purchased new from Doc Lloyd last year as a backup and used it only a few times. All tube recreation of a classic studio tool that defined the category. Recently moved from the States to Chipping Norton, UK. Get in touch with any questions. Company description: DOC LLOYD AUDIO DLA-2A: Leveling Amplifier A Studio Legend at Your Feet The Doc Lloyd DLA-2A Leveling Amplifier is a meticulous recreation of an iconic studio compressor, now directly compatible with guitar and bass input signals. Less than 25% the size and cost of the original with 100% authentic tone. It took multiple years of dedication to make this ambitious goal a reality, but finally it is here. COMPONENTS: - Lundahl 1922 Input Transformer - Lundahl 5402 Output Transformer - Kenetek T4B Classic Optical Attenuator Module - Tung-Sol 12AX7 Vacuum Tube - JJ 12BH7-A Vacuum Tube - Calibrated VU Meter with Backlight - Vishay Beyschlag Thin Film Professional Resistors - Non-piezoelectric Class 1 Ceramic and Film Capacitors - Daka-Ware Bakelite Knobs -

I have done that in the past. The only thing that puts me off now is the thought of modifying the expensive bridge and brass nut on my Spector to accept the heavier strings and the cost of putting it back to original. Maybe I should trade it for a 5 string.

Hi Gang! Hope everyones good. Putting my Ashdown head for sale- this is from December 2024 and used half a dozen times basically and can prove it. Working perfectly and with a fresh bill of service/review by Dave at Ashdown from September 2025 (faulty input jack) so fresh and ongoing warranty. Going digital with the band (Anagram + IEMs) so no use for this sadly. The head comes with cover, mint, plus footswitch (4x button). Happy to post, or short drive.-

Good shout ! I have this setting on my Warwick corvette . Had it done a couple of months ago, and wondered why I didn’t do this much sooner!

Something I was putting together as a backup but ended up with something else…… Slab Precision 66 type body. The paint is thin and not the best finish but not embarrassing. I didn’t paint it, it was like that when I bought it from here. It’s fine when it’s dressed up though. The neck pocket is bit oversized but when I fitted the neck (that I bought from here separately) , the holes lined up perfectly. I presume they are drilled for a standard Fender neck fitting. The neck is quite nice. It has Fender decals but it’s not a Fender. The decals have also been lacquered over. It has black Schaller tuners and a Geddy Lee neck plate. I think someone was building a Geddy at some point. The pups are Fender. They came out of a Mex Deluxe I believe. i was going to change the harness as it sometimes makes a crackle noise, not all the time, just now and again. Never got round to it as it’s so infrequent. Plays well enough and the neck is quite skinny. I haven’t weighed it but I would say it’s between 8-8 1/2 pounds. It could be a lot nicer with a bit of tlc but I’m not going to use it now and thought I may as well pass it on to someone. Collection and trial much preferred but I will post if the buyer arranges their own courier. I’ll throw in an old Gator case to ship it in. It’s seen better days so don’t think you are getting a posh new one 🤣 It’s a freebie!-

In six month's time the 'super portable' rig will be the size of an Ampeg stack with all the add-ons...

Very hard for me to choose just one. Nathan East’s playing on Random Access Memories is fantastic. But then so is the bass playing on Automaton by Jamiroquai. But there’s too many great albums for me to choose just one for bass playing.

I bought a new handle for the case I use for my Performer about ten years ago. I finally fitted it a few months ago ...
-
I don't think so. I am in a general cover band and a metal band. The metal band almost never go past the first 2 strings, the cover band does all of them. I guess metal just stays in the mud!

Actually I couldn't cope with being tethered to the snake so have bought these: https://www.thomann.co.uk/swiff_audio_wx520_monitor_wireless_system.htm I suppose saying I'm also going to use them when exercising on my indoor trainer is also clutching at straws (consumer bluetooth head phones are for pussys)! Mind you not as bad as last year's glorious T1 fail thanks to a Trace Elliot Stack plus Warwick five string 😎. I have to admit that failing is way more fun than the staying in!

Now just £310.00. 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-

Thanks Tim. Makes sense! If it makes an "in principle" difference, I guess it would be best practice to be using the silver TS to TRS adapters as standard rather than the gold TRS to TRS adapters? And this is a more general point? Those plugging their 1/4" stereo jacks from their wireless IEMs (eg Swiff WX520) into a single balanced mono aux-out jack will just have to take what they get! -

Ive got one jazz strung permanently like that, I like that tuning

Blimey, I'd forgotten I'd given him the wood he made that bass from. Does that mean it's mine..? 🤣🤣🤣
-
I don't think your brain would notice ears being out of phase as that happens all the time with sounds arriving at one ear before the other. -
Just sayin' ...why not summon the man himself, paging @Jabba_the_gut.

Hmmm... We've got balanced mono aux outputs as previously noted. We've got and used a 1/4" TS to 3.5mm TRS adapter jacks (the lower silver jack in pic) to allow us to plug in to the desk to deal with the issues that Woody mentioned. What stumps me though is why we're getting equally good results with 1/4" TRS to 3.5mm TRS stereo adapters (upper jack), with standard IEM headphones with standard 3.5mm TRS jacks?! So we're using either without issue.
-
Given that’s the case and with you being in metal bands I’d be tempted to go BEAD. Loved my time playing in that tuning for a few years.
