  1. How's about this for starters... http://youtu.be/NaIDj6vBEoU
  2. I tend to favour putting the 'cleanest' dirt box (overdrive) first, then building up to a fuzz at the end. Currently mine goes BB Bass Pre -> Blowerbox -> Coloursound Bass Fuzz. Nice and FEEEELTHY!!!
  3. [quote name='flyfisher' timestamp='1407590804' post='2522091'] BTW, wasn't it the Grateful Dead who expressly encouraged people to bootleg their concerts? [/quote] Primus did too. Their website used to have a 'Bootleg Barn' where fans were encouraged to upload their recordings. I seem to remember that the best ones received goodies from the band too.
  4. I'm in complete agreement with Mr Frampton. Why pay to see a live performance, only to watch it through a 2" screen? Ah, it's so that you've got an appalling memento of the occasion to share with people too tight to buy a ticket. Either that or you're more concerned that people you'll probably never meet know you were there, than you are with enjoying yourself and embracing the full live experience. It's just f***ing rude.
  5. +1. it's my 'go to' box for pretty much everything!

    KingBollock, I've just looked on the Alpha website at the specs for their 24mm pots and they're using M8 threads with a 0.75 pitch. http://www.alphapotentiometers.net/html/24mm_pot_11.html
  7. Sehr, sehr schön!
  8. having been a diehard Jazz fan for more than 8 weeks I find myself looking over the fence at what other rock and metal players use. They can't *all* be wrong. Can they?
  9. [quote name='HowieBass' timestamp='1407408315' post='2520147'] he charges an extortionate amount for his products and keeps 35% of money paid to him when it turns out he's made something that doesn't fulfil the customer's request? [/quote] Even God only asks for 10%!
  10. £499? Seems reasonable when you consider that the gig bag is a Vivienne Westwood®.
  11. I had one of these years ago - upgrade the pickups and you've got yourself a SUPERB machine!

    [quote name='ahpook' timestamp='1407454930' post='2520833'] It has mids the connections are down at the bottom right Here's the schematic it's taken from. [url="https://sites.google.com/site/brianthornock/FET-2BSchemRevised.png"]https://sites.google...chemRevised.png[/url] The vero layout misses out the resistor on the supply (current limiting ?) and the bright switch. [/quote] Don't forget to bias those 201s properly - they're fussy buggers when it comes to current...

    If it's going in a 1U then you've got space for a 'Mids' knob, surely…?
  14. I don't mind a bit of Blur every now and then. Grolsch is quite passable too...

    Ouch yet wow!

    .010" on my SG, 0.045" on my basses. Happy days. Loud nights.

  17. [quote name='crez5150' timestamp='1406980939' post='2516406'] When doves cry - Prince [/quote] Nice!
  18. Brilliant watch, thanks for posting.
  19. Check the fuses inside of the amp first.
  20. Really made up for you that it's everything you hoped for Pete. Also, PICTURES & SOUND CLIPS!!!
  21. [quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1406924656' post='2516019'] Anything by snow patrol or coldplay, boring. [/quote] …just fell asleep reading this post.
  22. Shove some 'Living Colour' in there - Doug Wimbish lines make for an interesting gig... Eton Rifles by the Jam is a good one to get your teeth into as well. If your guitarists are up for it then Iron Maiden baselines should keep you on your toes too, left AND right hand workout!
  23. TAPE THE CATCHES DOWN ON YOUR FLIGHT CASES!!!!
  24. My personal favourite is Carol Kaye, and if you can get hold of her books they are well worth checking out. Yolanda Charles, Me'shell N'degeocello and Tal Wilkenfield ain't too shabby either . Brilliant players.
  25. Lateralus and Anaemia - Tool Twins Live - Jaco Pastorius Live After Death - Iron Maiden Sailing the Seas of Cheese - Primus Led Zeppelin II and Houses of the Holy - Led Zeppelin Mingus Ah Um - Charles Mingus Giant Steps (the CD version with alternate takes on) - John Coltrane Post - Björk A, B, C&D - Frank Sidebottom loads of others, but that'll do for now I suppose.
