[quote name='Alun' post='90363' date='Nov 18 2007, 05:35 PM']Although you might not expect it to, "Whipping Post" by the Allman Bros always goes down well in a rock trio I occasionally play in.

[quote name='steve' post='89910' date='Nov 17 2007, 03:31 PM']isn't itunes an odd filetype and not mp3?[/quote] i'm thinking that you could probably use songs that have been ripped from a CD using i-tunes but you can only play songs downloaded from them on an ipod. I guess you could connect an ipod to an auxillary input on the tascam if it has one

Can you drag songs from your i-tunes library onto one of these? (apologies for a probable dumb question from a technophobe

Ian, I've got a white/black/white one in my loft that came off a MIM jazz, you're welcome to it if you want, pm me an address to send it to and i'll get it off pronto. Just buy me a pint sometime!! Andy

Anyone tried [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220171091542&ssPageName=MERC_VIC_RCRX_Pr3_PcY_BIN_IT&refitem=220166939026&itemcount=3&refwidgetloc=closed_view_item&usedrule1=CrossSell_LogicX&refwidgettype=cross_promot_widget"]THESE?[/url] Pablo, If you buy Grolsh in the flip - top bottles, you can use the rubber sealing washer on the lid to strech over your strap button when your strap is in place, which secures the strap. Same principle as in the link above.

I collected an O10 from Steve at the weekend and tried it out at a rehearsal on Sunday evening, (with the recurve through a LM2 and VT-1 purist) and bloody hell, was I impressed or what!! It is so clear and cuts through easily as well as my schroeder did, but without the pronounced mid range. I have a gig tomorrow night , if the place isn't too big, I'll use it without PA reinforcement, and see how it goes, should be interesting!!

I've just won the self titled "Back Door" CD on Ebay for two quid any other listening reccommendations?

Just borrow the missus's nail varnish remover. It'll clean it off perfectly. Pretty much any solvent will do the job, though

Dave, I've been using one for some time, now, and I must say I haven't had a problem with hollow stages and boominess(?) I used to get a few problems from time to time but I have changed cabs a few times since and I no longer play with one of "those" guitarists, so I dont know how much is attributable to the Gramma. Its a useful comfort blanket, though! Btw the top is carpeted wood, and the underside is a high density foam like this. Cheers Andy

I just ordered a Dean Markley Turbo-Tune String Winder from stringbusters for a fiver, seems to fit the bill, I'll let you know if it works! Here's what they say "[i]One size fits all winder head fits virtually all type of tuning head including guitar, bass, mandolin and banjo. The handle is detachable and the winder head is fitted with a hex shaft so it can be used with an electric screwdriver[/i]"

[quote name='G-bitch' post='82083' date='Nov 1 2007, 09:09 AM']I would like to compare the 700rb with the 400rb through my 6x10 to compare the sound at high volume but internet searching indicates that only Soundslive and GAK stock them - anyone know better?[/quote] Have a look at [url="http://www.mansons.co.uk/index.cfm?menu_drilldown=product&typegroup=Bass%20Amplification&type=Gallien%20Krueger&CFID=4641814&CFTOKEN=59035301"]MANSONS,EXETER[/url]

You know the ones that attach to your chordless screwdriver. Are they any good, do they fit bass pegs and where can I get one? Yes, I'm lazy!!

Hmmm...... lets hope the new web site marks an improvement in customer service as well. I dont think so, somehow, seeing as I am still waiting for a response from them regarding an item I have had on order for 3 weeks My fault, really, 'cos I am aware of their reputation, fortunately its not an expensive item.

hi Rich, how are you, mate? I'm going for the Omni 10, but I'm cheating in that Steve (thumper) is building it for me. I have the plans, though and I intend to have a crack at a couple of Omni 10.5's when time/space considerations allow. It will certainly be an interesting comparison Sorry for the hijack! back on topic - BUY THAT BLOODY 1210L!!!!!

If its any help to any of you guys, theres a 1210L on ebay, right now, BIN £450. I'd've had it myself but I'm jumping on the BFM bandwagon! heres the link [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=280167592759&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=018"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...A:IT&ih=018[/url] Good Luck!

[quote name='carlosfandango' post='81066' date='Oct 29 2007, 11:30 PM']I sold my old 410R to Andy here on the forum.[/quote] That was the best sounding cab I've had, especially with my LM2, just a shame it was a tad heavy. Now a 410 light, on the other hand......... oh oh! incoming GAS!!

Thanks for the prompt reply, Dave, I will have a play with it today, but I will probably buy one of your own power supplies if you are bringing any to Bassday Cheers Andy

Heres one for Dave - I noticed during a gig last night that my VT-1 was causing some high pitched squealing and the on/off switch was causing a loud "pop" when operated. Obviously in mid gig its impossible to experiment to find the cause so I switched it to bypass and finished the gig with no problems. It worked fine for the first set and became apparent as I switched it on after the break. I'm using my ACG bass into the pedal , into my Markbass LM2 head and Eden Nemesis 1x15 cab. No other effects used. I havent had chance to have a look at it yet this morning, I just wondered if you had any thoughts ? Cheers Andy
