  2. Not as straight forward as you think. Sure you can generate numbers, but how accurate and also how useful is more difficult. The more you measure, the more difficult you realize the task becomes. Agreed, there are lots of holes in your good intensions. It’s in part equating the numbers to real world performance is much more difficult than it appears.

  4. Hi is this item still for sale? thanks
  5. For my Limelight bass the graffiti comes from band members, friends, Basschatters and one or two pro musicians. So all real peeps. The batteries live under the plate on the front but I can't remember why the pickups ened up where they did. There's a good YouTube vid that may have the answers you seek:
  6. Thanks everyone. No moogs expected but I think I now have enough info. I will make some short TS cables as the mixer will only be a short way away and I have a HiCon 3.5mm plug that has a screw in 6.35 adaptor to cover any headphone output. Just need to make the cable with two large jacks on the other end.
  7. Great thread. Thanks so much for sharing.
  8. I've actually got 4 x One10's. I used 2 with the TH500 last week in a Rock n Roll/Blues band and it sounded very good. Next week, in the cover band, I was thinking of trying out 3 x One10's and my Aguilar AG700, at 2.67ohms.
  9. Thank you, it does sound good!
  10. Well....Back in to The Bungalow on Friday evening and first night of a Mod weekender. Great venue to play! Always a well stocked beer fridge in the green room! A couple of members down,one of the singers was on holiday and we recently lost our keyboard player and also his replacement! To lose one is careless...two is....something! We also have the drummer handing in his notice as he has changed jobs. Decent turnout for a Friday and we seemed to go over pretty well! Sound guy had issues with the bass amp,DI would not work,so he stuck a mike on the cab,then the thing cut out on a song in the second half. But we made it to the end! Jack Flash!.mp4
  11. Today
  12. Cheers for sharing your comparison. I really liked both lol. Your description is spot on I feel. The warmth of the warm audio reminded of the mxr phase 90 script I tried on the boss gx-1b new multi fx pedal. I loved it. Just lost a bid on eBay for a mXR block block phase 90. I really REALLY dig the phase sound.
  13. Selling this Fodera Emperor J 4 Standard Classic in Olympic White finish, in impeccable condition.

Tryout welcome in Barcelona, Spain
  14. I am offering for sale a 1966 Fender Jazz Bass in excellent condition. This bass is 100% original in all components and electronics, with the only exception being a professional refinish carried out decades ago in a beautiful, vintage-correct sunburst. The finish has aged gracefully and looks absolutely stunning in person, giving the instrument a classic and very authentic appearance. The neck is straight, very comfortable, and stable, and the truss rod works perfectly. The Lollipop tuners, block inlays and binding make Fender basses from this era unique. The bass plays wonderfully (very low action!) across the entire fretboard and delivers the unmistakable mid-60s Fender Jazz Bass tone: warm, articulate, and full of character. Details: Year: 1966 Model: Fender Jazz Bass Weight: 4.1 kg Neck: Straight, truss rod fully functional Frets: great working condition Tuners: Lollipop Electronics & hardware: All original Finish: Refinished sunburst (done decades ago) Includes: Original covers and a Fender case from the European era Location: Barcelona, Spain Price: €7000 This is a player-grade vintage Jazz Bass with incredible vibe, tone, and history. The refin makes it more accessible than a fully original example, while retaining everything that truly matters: sound, feel, and authenticity. Happy to answer any questions or provide additional photos upon request. Serious inquiries only, please.
  15. That is because you are correct and I am slapdash. OK, I have been sucked in to this world. I bought an Epiphone NEWPORT with Roto Tru Bass strings on it. SUCH FUN!!!!!!! I need a 5 string though. I just want a NEWPORT with a wider neck. And I do not want to slide in to Wilcock territory. I am sure they are very fine indeed and I do not begrudge them their price tag. But the NEWPORT is doing it for me as it is. I like the aesthetic. I am on to a complete non starter here, no? I looked at the Ibanez Talman. I am not digging the visuals like the NEWPORT. As if to prove it, here is a Wilcock which would do all I wanted. https://thebassgallery.com/collections/all/products/wilcock-mullarkey-v. But.......................................

  17. Nice! The 5 string shortie market is pretty limited but there’s some nice looking basses out there it sees when they pop up on here … I didn’t realise the Embassy did a short scale, I thought they were all 34” and the Newport was their short scale offering?
  18. a great bass head Let me know if you decide to part with the hdn112 cab my man
  19. OK, I have been sucked in to this world. I bought an Epiphone Embassy with Roto Tru Bass strings on it. SUCH FUN!!!!!!! I need a 5 string though. I just want an Embassy with a wider neck. And I do not want to slide in to Wilcock territory. I am sure they are very fine indeed. But the Embassy is doing it for me as it is. I like the aesthetic. I am on to a complete non starter here, no?

  20. Custom Explorer built by Jon Shuker in 2010. Mahogany body, flame maple top, maple set neck with Jazz profile, rosewood fretboard, white LED side fret markers, Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounder Precision and Jazz pickups, passive volume/volume/tone, tone knob is also a push/pull switch to activate LEDs, individual bridge pieces, schaller strap locks. Commissioned in 2010 for Jon to build it. Gigged a fair bit where it picked up a few battle scars but nothing affecting playability. The nicest Jazz neck I've ever played, and the build quality all round is fantastic. The goal with this bass was to have a 34" scale Explorer that didn't suffer from neck dive and would also fit in a case smaller than a door. To achieve this, the bridge was pushed further back on the body, with the compromise being more limited upper fret access, but the result is zero neck dive and a much more comfortable playing position. The nicks and dings include: small dent on the top above the bridge, ding/chip on the edge/corner near the tone knob, small scratch on the bottom horn, light buckle rash on the back, small ding near the rear strap button, couple of small headstock dings, small chip above P pickup from using it as a thumb rest, couple of dings near the corner of the rear horn/pointy bit. The hardware has tarnished - it all works perfectly well, but the aesthetic has taken a hit for sure. The flightcase is a custom build from Flightcase Warehouse, is a one-hand lift, and built like an absolute tank. One of my old basses has come up for sale and I’d like it back hence putting this beauty up for sale. Not looking for trades but might be open to an offer.

    Octaver/chorus

    A new combo ... well for me at least. Got the Hendrix edition uni-vibe just because it was a Hendrix edition! Experimenting and put it after the octamizer and it gave the resulting octaver sound a 3D quality that was most pleasing. On its own the uni-vibe on bass was not that good (I guess it is a guitar pedal after all) but with the octamizer it's a winner.
  22. You could of course consolidate all of your smaller cases into this one easier to manage case.
  23. I did a little comparison between the grape phaser and the warm audio phasor ii. Unfortunately can't speak for the mxr but the Aguilar has a great feedback (color) feature which makes it nice and 'swirly' (for want of a better word) and has more mid emphasis, whereas the WA has a warmer tone and the feedback gives a more 'vowel' like resonance. I use both on my board. With both on it has an almost envelope filter response.
  24. I've got two lil' barefaced one10s. For gigs I'll use a TC Electronic BH550 up top, sounds pretty good and cuts through the twin guitars and drums of our heavy rock band. I've also got the BH250 for smaller gigs/rehearsal. Great lightweight amp, spectra comp toneprint sounds great on both, built in tuner and I use it with headphones and the aux lead for home practise. I've seen the BH250s on the marketplace here for very reasonable prices, looks slightly bigger than a TE elf
