  1. Past hour
  2. Have you looked at the new Messenger? That’s arguably a better gigging format as it flatter but is 32-key and has 256 patch slots.
  3. Almost all of the voicing on both the 400+ and Bass 800D is done within the tone stack eq section, that’s why it’s so important to understand how it works.
  4. It's like a vending machine of tones!
  5. Atlansia built something like this with this Oxford, not exactly what you described, but an attempt to have almost any possible sound by selecting any of the 16 pickups/coils:
  6. How to produce a short scale version of a classic design without the need to retool. Actually, quite smart thinking from a business perspective. However, I suspect that there will be little, or no weight saving over the full scale versions, which has always been my problem with all maple Rics. The upside is that they shouldn’t look tiny on those with larger frames. In short (no pun intended), I’d like to try one.
  7. All this talk of nut widths reminds me of another sign of decline - I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that they reduced the variety of neck options for their made to order basses. If I'm remembering correctly, then that's not a good sign either, is it?
  8. But I quite like the headstock 😂
  9. I wonder if this would work with the California TT
  10. Just found out what this post is about. Another legend gone. Weirdly enough, I put on my Danny Thompson 'Wotcher' t shirt this morning.
  11. Not going to get any more time to mess with it today (kids, bedtimes, etc ) but I think I'm starting to get the hang of it. And it is sounding rather good now. Back when I had the Bass 400+ I mostly EQ'd using the graphic rather than the main tone controls, which were mostly left flat-ish - I'd adjust them for the room, plus, since I was using the 1516 which was up on casters, I'd dial in a bit of additional bottom end to compensate for the lack of coupling of the cab with the stage / floor.
  12. Is it an American made neck with the Bullet trussrod (1974-82) ? Maybe the adjuster has been changed if so as it isn't bullet shaped
  13. Nice comfy strap, helps with those weighty Basses you're thinking of selling becasuse they're too heavy. Well used, been sitting in storage for the last two thousand years. Adjustable length (at both ends) from approx 44in (112cm) to 57in (145cm) from hole to hole. Full working order, OK condition - there's some crud around the holes, nothing that counts as a biohazard and I'll throw it in for free. Thirty quid posted, knock a fiver off if you can collect from Bewdley DY12 I'm in Manchester and Bolton 27th - 28th September and could meet up there if that helps.
  14. I can't say the original shape looks out of place. The grain speaks for itself even with that amount of coverage.
  15. Just to be clear - only the cab is for sale. Happy to work out the details with you but please PM to discuss.
  16. So they moved the bridge closer to the neck by the look of it, so they won't be much shorter in reach than a 33" bass or smaller bodied and likely to be neck dive prone surely - I don't get it
  17. Two flaws ... very sensitive to electrical or magnetic noise. Plus, the magnet induces magnetism in the string. The movement of the magnetised string causes electrical currents in the coil... but they will be extremely weak far from the magnet (inverse cube law) so the signal will be paltry when the magnet is away from the ends of the coil.
  18. Hi all, Im interested to know if there is a pedalboard size xlr bluetooth transmitter out there on the market? Ideally 2 channel. If so, anyone using it to send their mix?
  19. Have you ever wanted to play jazz tunes but felt the Real Book was a bit too big? This Jazz Chord Book could be the answer. Full of lots of classic tunes with chords in useful grids. Bit of a quirky book I picked up when playing with one jazz group (who used it). £15?
  20. The only thing I really want are more patches for saving stuff too. The 25 is super limited in that front. Other features are good, but the smaller format and streamlined options are a bonus for me overall.
  21. Steppenwolf - Hawkwind
  22. We love you Neepsy.
  23. Today
  24. I may have made a mistake then. I was just going off what I’d seen discussed elsewhere. I thought Dec 24 was the last of the US batch and 25 onwards was overseas. It’s specifically models from Jan 25 that I had heard reports of QC issues, and the info above seems to support that. Mine is older (Feb 2021), and is flawless in terms of finish. To be fair, I’ve owned three Moogs over the years and they have hands down been the best made and perfectly finished synths I’ve had the pleasure of using. I also purchased a decksaver for my Subsequent 25 and it’s a perfect fit, so something definitely changed somewhere down the line.
  25. Fair enough. But all of us are united on the headstock being fugly…lol. Well, I know some people love it…but I have a feeling the market has spoken here…
