  1. Past hour
  2. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. A riff that's heavy by any standards, plus an even heavier riff, all combined with delicate acoustic guitar. And it all fits together as a coherent whole, creating a musical vision of heaven and hell that's arguably the heaviest song ever recorded. Others have tuned lower, played slower or used more distortion but never achieved the sheer force when that song hits. That ability to cast light as well as shade is what sets Sabbath apart from their imitators.
  3. Ah cool, thanks very much. Will hit buy now. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป
  4. Lovely! I love mine. Long gigs are much easier with that low weight.
  5. Can confirm it's got a regular center negative / common style PSU input as well, that's how I run mine ๐Ÿ‘
  6. Takes a bit of getting used to but feels so common sense when it falls into place...
  7. That's lovely, Lozz. I was playing a rather nice Sandberg PM 5-string earlier today - I've never seen the J-type before. Very smart! ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ‘
  8. Yep - that neck is a good un!
  9. It may have been a deal with me at Frankley Services for a Natural 5 string ray ๐Ÿ˜œ
  10. It lives!!! I owned this bass about 10 years ago!!! Nice to see it again!
  11. Nice one Lozz, that's a fabulous weight and a fine looking bass. By comparison my CIJ P bass, which I thought was light at 7.6 pounds, appears to be a boat anchor, haha!
  12. Bought a pedal from Greg last week. Very quick despatch and wrapped well. Faultless transaction. Thoroughly recommended. Thanks again.
  13. Thanks. That looks quite cool. Ive not seen that one before. Ali Express has it for ยฃ22.50 so Iโ€™ll take a punt on that. I like the idea of not needing an app for the HPF/LPF, although i also think the app looks quite good. Those are the only control's id need. Iโ€™ll order one now. Good call. EDIT: Maybe not, it looks like itโ€™s powered from the computer. is that right? I dont want it connected as a USDB device (other than to load IRโ€™s). Ive had hum/noise and all sorts when ive used other gear like this. for me it has to be a PSU.
  14. I don't have a digital caliper to measure it with such exact precision. But I imagine those specifications can be found on the Fodera website.
  15. Entanglement - Imogen Heap
  16. My Indonesian Squier P-bass Special has a neck like a matchstick. It's still about my favourite bass even though I've moved on to 5-string for the last couple of years. It's a PJ with P body and J neck, circa 2004. I bought it from the BC classifieds many years ago for not a lot at all. I gigged it for many years, preferring it over much more expensive basses
  17. I love this. Respect is earned not demanded. I once took my aluminium double bass with Golden Slaps to a stellar luthier who was fixing a vintage Hawkes bass worth maybe 20 times more. He treated me and the bass with the same respect as the super expensive bass.
  18. Great work @NancyJohnson and @prowla.. ๐Ÿ‘ I should be able to make this too... ๐Ÿ˜Ž #1 - Paul @NancyJohnson #2 - Paul #2 @prowla #3 - Martin @Merton #4 - Matt @Wombat #5 - Andy @Wolverinebass #6 - Stevie @stevie #7 - Lozz @Lozz196 #8 - Matt @neepheid #9 - @bassace97 #10 - Robert @bass_dinger #11 - Christopher @chyc #12 - jaco @Geek99 ** #13 - Alan @WalMan #14 - Trevor @TrevorR #15 - John @jonno1981 #16 - Gary @cetera #17 - @MacDaddy #18 - Steve @Stingray5 #19 - Russ @Russ #20 - Rich - errm, @Rich tbc #21 - Happy Jack @Happy Jack #22 - Silvia Bluejay @Silvia Bluejay #23 - Mike @mikelawrencecalleja #24 - @admiralchew #25 - martin @police squad #26 - @Sean #27 - @silverfoxnik
  19. This Friday STRAY will be playing Esquires in Bedford with support from Thr3e
  20. I just go the MVave IR box for my pocket rig and it's nice solid, easy, has it's own headphone out and can do audio via USB (there's no volume control for the USB which is a faff. but non issue in your case), XLR out and has High pass / Low Pass knobs too. Comes loaded with it's own IR's but they can be replaced via the app. The stock one's I've found "okay" but loaded my own and am having fun. I've not used it but was also recommended the Sonicake IR loader, also has an XLR out and your own IR's can be loaded into the slots. Can be had online for ยฃ35-40 Both super cheap, I got the Mvave for ยฃ20 or so. Ordered it and the Mvave Chocolate Plus mini bluetooth midi controller, both together was ยฃ40 delivered to my door, the future is now! Part of why I went for the Mvave was as I knew I was getting the midi controller and they use the same app etc.
  21. Today
  22. Paul, a chum of mine runs https://www.elitestringworks.com I could see if heโ€™d be interested in coming along to do set ups and other straightforward tech work at the event. We had a friend of Nicks do that some years ago and it went down well.
  23. Nice one. I'm glad you got it sorted.
  24. Dropped off the Stentor this morning. The chap said that the bass is in good condition apart from the bridge, which he assured me will be sorted without the need for a replacement. I've left it at the shop, dropping off a set of Innovation silver slaps when they arrive. When I mentioned rockabilly, there was a slight snort of derision. I told him that I thought he had a ridiculous looking moustache (each to their own). We laughed. All is good ๐Ÿ‘
  25. Removed from another project bass I was making. I bought this new. This is a clean and clear Glockenklang preamp. Itโ€™s in full working order. https://www.glockenklang.de/en/products/bass_systems/onboard_2-band.htm Volume, Balance, Treble and Bass controls with passive tone circuit activated from Push/Pull volume control. Specs from the Glockenklang website: โ€˜Onboard preamp 2-band The GLOCKENKLANG 2-band onboard preamp is active/passive switchable (at the volume push/pull), has a balance-pot with no volume dip in center-position, a treble-pot with +/- 18 dB@18 KHz in active mode, acting as classical highcut in passive mode and a bass-pot with +/- 14 dB@40 Hz. Battery-connection is 9 / 18 volts. Due to the high performance electronic, in flat position of the eq you can hear no difference between active and passive mode! It comes pre-wired with highflexible cables.โ€˜ ยฃ69 plus shipping. Pete
  26. Hey all Bought for a bass that I sold, so never used these. DR Pure Blues 45-130. &nbsp ยฃ35 shipped in the UK. Pete
