    Apologies MacDaddy missed your reply, glad you liked it! New one done, completely overhauled drums hope they’re going in the right direction.
  4. Jazz Sabbath at Dublin's Sugar Club a couple of weeks back. Was a surprisingly potent gig - went mainly for the novelty factor but was surprised by just how good they were. Rick Wakeman's son. Adam (Ozzy and Sabbath's longtime keys player) tinkling the ivories and, more importantly, Jack Tustin (I think) on upright - oh, and a drummer. Theyve got a whole, somewhat unnecessary, schtick about being a 60s jazz band that were ripped off by sabbath and are now reclaiming their legacy. In fairness, the introductions and back stories were generally very funny and they had a good rapport with the audience. Anyway, as expected, they used the riffs and melodies of songs from the first couple of sabbath albums as heads and wandered off from there - musicianship and interplay were excellent. Much as I went more for amusements sake, it was really enjoyable musically and a couple of hours flew by. The audience were, unsurprisingly, more denim and leather than zoot suit but seemed as taken with them as I was. Had a quick chat with them after and they were an affable bunch too.
  5. But this one goes up to 11
  6. Good advice all - thanks for the input. Really helps as a newbie. I will most likely look into adding some tuners in the near future.

  9. Dean never seem to help themselves , they have so many types of " EDGE" , but then don't mark them on the blooming truss cover. There's an Edge "1" , 2 , Select , Premium , special models , Edge Pro , its almost as bad as saying " P" bass" hey even made a european model in the spector plant >.< . That looks like one of these to me , if its definitely Passive , it is still a Korean model .. so good Qc and build but definitely closer to entry level than one of the upper edge models , giveaways are the Die cast turners , and a basswood body , obviously yours's not in Trans red 😉
  10. Tim approached me to see if I would see if I would sell back to him the Mini P that I bought a few months ago. How could I refuse. Transaction was smooth as always. You can deal with him with total confidence.
  11. @tayste_2000 want to swap with your mono lite?

  13. Back when this thread started the Gardiner Houlgate bass wasn't known. However we still only have the previous and the current seller's word that this bass is actually by John Birch. There's no logo on the headstock as there is in the example in the 70s catalogue and no documentation. The Hyperflux pickups that were in the bass when Gardiner Houlgate were selling it have been removed which IMO seriously impacts on this instrument's worth, and the wiring installed in both versions of this bass are very conventional by John Birch standards. All that can be said for sure is that the bridge is a John Birch bridge. Everything else is heresy and speculation.
  14. I'm no expert but I play fretless and use a Sansamp BDDI v2 and an Ampeg Opticomp compressor and I couldn't live without it. The compressor just sprinkles magic dust on my tone and smooths everything out. I'm aware that the Sansamp pre-amps do add some compression but I found when I turned my compressor pedal off, my tone lost something and it was noticeable when it was turned back on again. The test for me was when I did a few gigs with another band and needed to build a small pedalboard for a fretted gig. I was going to save money and not bother with the Ampeg compressor but playing without it was considerably noticeable. As soon as I added it to my board (Sansamp, Octave and Compressor), my tone tightened up and was much better for it. I've heard good things about the TC Spectracomp pedal and they are cheap enough to get hold of so I say go for it.
  15. These were a big deal in the unplugged era of the ‘90s . Bargain ! Glwts
  16. Howdy folks! I've never really used a compression pedal and I currently have a hankering to try one. I'm very much in the 'I'm not really sure what they do/I want them to do', and my understanding of the different types of compression is close to non existent. I've read a few articles and threads here, but I'm thinking just picking up a cheap one to try is probably better so I can get an understanding by actually using one. But, before I do, I have a quick question for you........ I play with a Sansamp VT pre amp as an always on, which compresses the signal anyway, so do I 'need' a compression pedal anyway, will it make a noticeable difference? If you're thinking it's still worth picking one up, I was looking at the Joyo Scylla as an entry point, or the TC Spectracomp. I have no idea if there are different types of compressors that are suited for different styles (we play blues standards) etc but, if it's handy to know, my current signal chain goes like this...... Something with flats Tuner Sansamp VT (always on) Catalinbread SFT (for occasional grit) Amp Thanks!
  17. Just saw your message. I've put the bass down to £1300 to match the ebay price.
  18. Young people's music is so simplistic and obviously aimed at those with a short attention span. But I love Sophie Grey for some reason..?` People who call Basses 'Guitars' are clearly wrong (or chronically uneducated), as our hallowed instrument was designed as a more portable alternative to the Double Bass. Therefore it's an Electric Bass. Coldplay make me feel depressed. I just can't do it. A little bit of drive added to the sound of a Bass can be great. But distortion? Leave it to the guitardists to create that wall of nasty noise. Flatwound strings. I love the sound in isolation, but can never use them live. My sound just disappears into a deep, sonic hole in the ground. Tablature is the work of Satan himself. It's only representative of how one player played it, and often has no representation of the rhythm. Learning to read notation is so much simpler. Yes, yes, I know it's all just in my head...
  19. Another great purchase from Ian - a Thumpinator. Great price and fast delivery. Recommended!

  21. I wonder whether, rather than a riser, if you look into cab porting/resonance/sound design, you could build a small box that would act as a resonator to help projection when the endpin is stood on it? Something along the (admittedly hugely complex!) lines as this: Or, I guess, more prosaically, along the lines of a phone "amplifier"? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Wooden-Speaker-Amplifier-Acoustic-Amplificate-Single-Attribute/dp/B0FBRQTJBH/ref=asc_df_B0FBRQTJBH?mcid=5be8bec0e25e394493a50ef0524acd74&hvocijid=10558217205620925100-B0FBRQTJBH-&hvexpln=74&tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=696285193871&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=10558217205620925100&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9209855&hvtargid=pla-2281435176658&psc=1&gad_source=1
  22. Yes, absolutely. I had a bit of a ferret around on Reverb and a single JB Hyperflux seems to be priced arounf the £200 mark, so there's your profit on the deal I suppose. If that T bird had frets and the seller could be perseuded into a more realistic price it would be an interesting project for someone- its essentially a great bass- but I appreciate that this is entirely wishful thinking on my part😆
  23. I guess so - but 70s JB pickups aren't exactly something you can pick up off Thomann or Gear4Music, so if you really needed a set, your only option might be with a bass attached! If the calculation was to flip the bass for around what you paid for it, it sort of makes sense.
  24. Yes, nothing else I can really add, incredible bass player and it seems like an even better person. terrible loss 😞 I've been obsessing about his gear and sound for 30+ yrs , from the early Roses with his 4005 and a Mesa 400+ rig through the Scream days until the reunion gear , I hope someone does a full feature on this, he had such great taste and tone. I recently found this photo recently from 1987 which was a probably a pre 4005 paint splattered bass, any ideas what it might be ? Aria ? I think he also used a Laney Combo which you can see in the background.
  25. As a Sandberg fan, I really owe it to myself to look at this in more detail. I've never played a Panther. I'll message you on ebay.
  26. Been eyeing this up for a while. If i can shift my Rickenbacker any time soon id be all over this. Have a bump on me
