stingrayPete1977

Its here! It has been setup then taken apart again [IMG]http://i997.photobucket.com/albums/af100/stingraypete/20130308_181349_zps5506cccc.jpg[/IMG] I could see where the indetation on the as ordered thomastik spiro weichs was so fitted it and tensioned it up, they had locked the again as ordered adjustable bridge with elastic bands, I have seated it so as the strings run evenly down the board and inline with the f hole notches [IMG]http://i997.photobucket.com/albums/af100/stingraypete/20130308_184514_zps23f507f8.jpg[/IMG] Plays really nice with the action about where I want it, no rattles or anything. The bag is HUGE and I got a free german bow to try out in comparison to my carbon yitamusic one. So far all good

[quote name='BassTractor' timestamp='1362692328' post='2003579'] Nope. It's post only. best, bert [/quote] That's a bit odd,I have never had a post only di on any amp.

[quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1362689527' post='2003495'] They should know what they are getting... they should have seen us and want us for what we do... If they want anything else... or they want to influence the set, not really interested and they are more than welcome to look elsewhere. We aren't a wedding band and avoid them mostly. [/quote] Well we wouldn't do a dj set at anything other than a wedding/function.

Has the OTB got a pre and post option for the DI? A sound guy rushed off his/her feet might automatically put it on pre which would defeat the object in this scenario.

LED lights are also great as they dont get hot so they can be unplugged and in the van 2 mins after the last drunken tosser has offered out the brides brother or started telling you about his mate at works Gibson Stradavaricastor worth millions

What is the best chainsaw for metal?

[quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1362670767' post='2003138'] Nope..because it delays the exit and prolongs the time spent at the gig. We quote for 2 hrs and after that we are packing up. [/quote] Hopefully the bride and groom will ring another band more obliging and pay a little bit more for the priveledge then

Unless you can drum up a crowd I cant see how anyone can get paid more than a few quid each for original material? Doing your own songs and moving to London will just cost you extra to travel to London IME Good covers band or tribute act well thats different but originals bands equals £1 per ticket if you can sell more than 20 or similar.

One that's not gone off would be a start but I will try to soften this one again, I could do with a proper shop that sells it.

That's exactly it, I removed the foil to try and find a useable bit but its all hard and even leaving it on the radiator doesn't soften it much.

The Nymans I have already got is solid, that's the problem

I have one of everything already

Hi mate, the fet can only be had on the 3.0 that you have or the max heads which I have purchased actually since this thread last cropped up! What are you running then a 1x8 and a 2x10? There should be no problem with the head, I have used my 3.0 through my 2x12T and i is not that far behind the 6.0, the 9.2 Max is another beast alltogether

Thanks Floyd if it goes well I can always think about trading up at a later date , I have another pre EB to sell if I need to I am hoping that this could be good for a while and if looked after and setup well should be a nice bass for the next user, there are always people after a good starter bass, if this one was for sale on here now for about £600 I would of snapped it up Had confirmation of shipping today so it could get here before the weekend!

[quote name='thisnameistaken' timestamp='1362501294' post='2000278'] Is there a prize for getting Pete to buy the rosin we recommend? I suppose I could shout louder about Pops if there is. I'm pretty sure that Kolstein isn't the only rosin that works. [/quote] Well I was originally thinking Pops! Why cant things be simple?

Yes, I am having an adjustable bridge fitted and Spirocore weich strings the same as on my Stagg (cheaper than you buy them here for too), I am hoping that with the ebony board and carved top, adjustable bridge and proper strings it should be at least a decent beginner bass? and if not at least all the major things are there for someone to set it up better at a later date if it needs a board shoot and stuff Looking at my account earlier it has not cleared yet but it is looking like £871 after the currency conversion.

[quote name='Stan_da_man' timestamp='1362430887' post='1999756'] US Spector NS2 I believe. Flea used that bass to record on Mother's Milk and Uplift Mofo. [b]The Ampeg rig was just a hired backline[/b]. [/quote] This is what I thought but how do we know?

And only if the pub is shut?

[quote name='MiltyG565' timestamp='1362348246' post='1998844'] Because you need to shop somewhere where other people speak like they have a mouth full of marbles i suppose? I've never set foot in a waitrose. We don't have them here. [/quote] If you add up your monthly shopping bill and send me 15 percent of that amount you can pretend you have been there!
