  1. [quote name='Heathy' timestamp='1496582777' post='3312433'] I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Lick their faces. They will stop. [/quote] Yes, but you could die of some disgusting disease.
  2. Ah yeah, you'd need to go positive from the 1st to negative on the 2nd cab... As you were.
  3. BSSM is the peak of their career. I love the stuff with Hillel Slovak on guitar too, but the later stuff is just charting their decline into mediocrity.
  4. Using a 4Ω cab and an 8Ω cab at the same time (assuming that you're using both speaker outputs on the amp) would give you an overall impedance of 2.6Ω and would blow the amp. If you're daisy-chaining one cab into another from [i]only one[/i] of the speaker outputs will give you an impedance of 12Ω (summing the cab impedances together), so you'd move more air, but the power output of the amp would be reduced.
  5. 80's Rush (Wal era) made me pick up the bass, but after that it's Disco, Funk, Motown, and Led Zeppelin II. 1970s then.
  6. Regarding the artwork I'd have to agree that most sound engineers refused to take the DI out of my DHA because they were afraid of what it would do to their speaker. On the other hand I turned up at a festival with it on my board and the engineer took one look at it and said "Oh, a Dave Hall, I'll take my feed from that!" Swings and roundabouts.
  7. Two SSDs. One for OS and DAW/plugins, one to record your audio to. While you're in there you could see if you could shoehorn any more RAM in there - that's always useful for plugins etc...
  8. I swear by the AB guide to music theory part 1 - the pink one. That'll get you up to grade V. AB also do past papers for theory, you can probably access them online.
  9. I used to love that Jonas Hellborg book. You've got me wondering what happened to it...
  10. Congratulations on your good fortune! Beautiful bass too. 😄

    [quote name='rmorris' timestamp='1495787762' post='3306521'] Thanks. I thought you might have used that. But seeing as you modified some component values I wondered if you found a schematic or reverse engineered one from the layout. [/quote] Not really, just knowing that increasing Emitter resistors decreases the gain of the transistor.

    [quote name='rmorris' timestamp='1495729012' post='3306203'] Hi. Where did you get the schematic / circuit info ? FSB ? [/quote] Got a stripboard layout from tagboardeffects.blogspot.com.
  13. Oof. Makes me think about upgrading my SVT-IIP. Nice.
  14. Run. Don't even bother to pack, just RUN!!!

    I'm starting a Crowther Prunes & Custard this week; just fancy something a bit different...
  16. I thought they were called AC/DC because that's the main chord progression?

  18. Probably some sort of overdrive. Or an octaver.
  19. From an old BC thread on the 3 band EQ of the LH series amps: [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]"Remember that the LH-1000 has a "tone stack" EQ and the flat reference setting is bass 3, mids 10, treble 0. Setting all the controls at noon will give you a scooped midrange sound. Read the manual and you will get the idea. There are only three knobs so set them where they sound good for you and your bass!"[/font][/color]

    I changed the 2 emitter resistors from 100r to 560 to reduce the gain and make it a bit less fizzy. I'm going for a low to mid drive unit with this one.

    Been playing about with one of these on stripboard lately - altered a couple of values to suit it more to my taste and it's working very well! http://youtu.be/AqBxMXwc77c
  22. Just got an email to say that PMT are having a sale of Hartke gear and thought it might be of interest to somebody on here. https://www.pmtonline.co.uk/brands/hartke
