Yup, Roto have always been brilliant in my experience.

Bugger.

The worst thing is that some people don't get how important it is.

Have they not got a 'quantize' button on their organ?

[quote name='bartelby' timestamp='1360843768' post='1977206'] Sometimes I wonder why I sold my VT2-EQ/DI... I had a reason at the time, can't remember what... Wonder if my ad says... [/quote] me too loving the VT1 Di/EQ though, so that's some consolation.

Well, thanks for the replies and schematics chaps, you're an awful lot faster than SWR themselves who haven't responded to my email from the end of February yet. Is this normal?

Aguilar stockists in the NW. If you find one let me know

How aout one of these - pure valve goodness. http://basschat.co.uk/topic/200606-for-sale-dave-hall-dha-vt-1-bass-drive/page__pid__1997631#entry1997631

I'm no fan of the 'P' either. I've really tried to get on with them, but just can't. I built a P a couple of years ago but it's undergone a few changes since then. Rerouted for a MM humbucker near the bridge to get a bit more top out of it..... then rerouted (again) to fit a Jazz neck pickup. And put a Jazz neck on it. I quite like the body though... With the Jazz neck and different pickup configurations it's a great sounding and great playing bass. Not really a P anymore though.

I didn't go. I stayed home and played bass. My GAS remains in check, I've saved the cost of admission plus travel and I'm a slightly better bassist than I was last weekend. Yay for me!

AC/DC makes me drive like a nutter. M'Lud.

Ever heard of these? [url="http://www.guitarfetish.com/GFS-JB-Pro-Jazz-Bass-Style-Alnico-Pickups_p_318.html"]http://www.guitarfetish.com/GFS-JB-Pro-Jazz-Bass-Style-Alnico-Pickups_p_318.html[/url] I've got a pair in my fretless Jazz and they are brilliant. Easily as good as the DiMarzios.

It can be done using a Boss SYB5 and an expression pedal to control the speed of your 'wobb'. I actually prefer the Behringer BSY600, as it does some stuff better than the Boss (for my needs anyway). This video (from about 1'12") is a pretty good demo of what's possible. It's a Drum and Bass clip, but you'll get the idea. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMbP3Yr2nmk[/media]

will check the voltage rails tomorrow. CBA right now.

Yup, Dave Hall VT1 EQ is a brilliant piece of kit. The DI EQs are really good too.

spent an hour tonight checking components and nothing seems broken - the game is afoot!

Got replacement parts for most of the pre section in me 'bits box'... I'll make the coffee and get me meter out

Anybody else had this problem with their 220? The power light doesn't come on, but the Power amp clip light is on all the time and nay sound comes out. I've tried plugging the bass into the FX return and Power amp in, but still no sound. Any ideas?

So anyway, I've just watched the video on my laptop as it's a while since I've heard it. Now my eldest (5) is walking around _5 towers singing "Gay Bar, Gay Bar!" I think I may be sleeping in the bath tonight...

[quote name='amnesia' timestamp='1362062870' post='1995196'] I flatly refused to play Electric 6's Gaybar a few months ago. To be honest, if it had been pushed I think I would have walked. [/quote] I'd have done it, it's an ACE tune!

Nicely done squire!

Seriously, Simon Gallup in the top 5? Above Jamerson et al. I declare shenanigans on this poll. It's good for a giggle I suppose.
