  1. Past hour
  2. Yep - that’s been one of my bugbears with it. I tried to do a 4-cable effects setup, and having to plug in and use the footswitch to switch it in and out just adds to that copious amount of floor spaghetti. As well as the input gain thing, the tacky rack ears with the squished text, and the non-padded gig bag with no shoulder strap!
  3. the circles you are moving in are the issue , try to insulate yourself from bad influences, turn yourself around and you should stop tying yourself in knots
  4. Agreed Mick, Whilst the SMX series added some useful bells and whistles such as compression and a blendable valve/solid state preamp, the Series 6 has a certain immediate clarity with clout never bettered by Trace Elliot.
  5. Same used to happen to the telephone handset cable. Not from getting up and walking in circles but from mysteriously picking it up and rotating it between the phone, your ear, and putting it back. If you often put the bass down you have another possible source of the dreaded twizzle. BTW, it sure looks like a bad case of cable mismanagement by someone who coils one way only and thinks they are doing great.
  6. Fretless jazz with flatwounds. 100% neck pickup, 0% bridge. Tone knob set right round to the most mellow. GEB7 pedal with the lowest band set very low and the rest in the middle position. A clean amp with the EQ set level across the bands.
  7. Today
  8. Its the only thing that stops me from filling the house! But I did ask Chris about it,. and I still think about it
  9. PM sent
  10. 😁 not an exaggeration! They tend to stick after a few years of inaction ...
  11. Bridge pick-up on my Sterling 34HH through a Nux Sculpture compressor, Ampeg SCRDI, Sine HPF (40hz) and into the FX return of a Peavey Minimax 600 and thence into a pair of TE 1x10". I've been using the same combination for several dep gigs now as I'm very happy with the sound - punchy with a little bite and enough room to colour the tone with variations in right hand finger (and pick) techniques. I use the same signal path but DI directly from the SCRDI for my main band although I sometimes need a wider range of sounds and will vary the pick up combination and occasionally the Sterling's tone controls. Both set ups have received compliments for the sound from band members and audience members.
  12. I've had my B2A for 40 years as I bought one of the first ones to be imported. This looks like an elegant mod, however I'm not sure what problem it is fixing as I've never had any tuning issues the half-dozen or so times I've had to tune it.
  13. G&L seems the favourite to date ! 👍
  14. My signature sound is to play everything slightly out of tune and out of time.
  15. hi there , it's 35" from saddle to nut thanks
  16. Precision. Flats. Tone control only just on. Valve preamp, gain at 1 o'clock. Slightly more bass than middle and slightly more mid than treble. Pair of 15s. To my ears, a nice big, fat sound with a good deal of heft but good definition.
  17. Ferrofish B4000+ Organ Module Hammond Brilliant little organ module from Ferrofish that makes any midi controller into a Hammond organ complete with drawbars, reverb, rotary speaker and overdrive. It’s really solidly made all steel construction with a small but clear display to show your way through the presets and variations. You can use it to save your own sounds or as a live organ using the drawbars. You can attach a control pedal to it for the rotary effect and it has USB and midi. It is also designed to be used with two controllers and a set of bass pedals if you want the full B3 experience but it doesn’t take four roadies to shift it! High quality and still being manufactured in Germany it comes boxed with manual PSU and USB lead. I’ve used it occasionally for gigs when space has been tight but mainly for rehearsals rather than carting my Nord around so I can use the in house controller. Really handy little unit. Great condition. See specs here and sound samples, lots of videos online - https://www.ferrofish.com/b4000-organ/?v=7885444af42e&cn-reloaded=1 I can post in the UK at buyer’s cost. Note you are buying the module, PSU and USB lead no controller keyboard is included.
  18. Er, no… schoolboy error. Entirely my own fault.
  19. Blue sister. Stranglers
