    DIY Effects

    managed to score a tonepad Small clone pedal from my brother this weekend. Got the chance to play it last night and it's absolutely beautiful - I need to finish putting my fretless back together now so that I can go mwah, mwah properly.
  2. [quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1337556778' post='1662055'] I think If I bought one and found it was not done by him I'd feel a bit sheepish..... [/quote] How about half a sheep in brine?
  3. TremoLo sold too.
  4. Sadly not, I've got an ex-student who's got a stand of Cigar-box guitars and that sort of thing; I think he's running as D810 guitars. You could pop by and say hello if you're interested in detritomusicology (making instruments from junk!).
  5. Unichorus SOLD, just the trem left.
  6. [quote name='deanovw' timestamp='1337495315' post='1660730'] I always seem to sound better when the other musicians are much better than me. [/quote] So did Miles Davis...
  7. Can't believe I missed James Jamerson. Badness.
  8. It's like a finger pointing at the moon - DON'T concentrate on the finger or you will miss AAAAAALLLLLLL the heavenly glory.... I suppose I'm pretty good, I've also got computer hacking skills and bow-hunting skills.
  9. looks like he's moved the bridge so that the strings sat in between the pole pieces. Rookie mistake.
  10. Matt Freeman fron "Rancid"? [media]http://youtu.be/RsgWs4sNHwM[/media] NSFW I'd definitely agree with Billy Sheehan being considered a 'virtuoso'. Like it or not, it's an impressive technique.
  11. [quote name='Bilbo' timestamp='1337417448' post='1659515'] Who is the tenor player who play the last solo? I like his ideas. [/quote] Ditto, his horn needs a polish though.... I'll get my coat.
  12. I played my brother's VM Jazz a few weeks ago and have been telling myself that I don't need another bass since - loved it.
  13. Hi All, due to the arrival of my new preamp I'm taking the East pre out of my main squeeze and letting all of the tone happen using valve goodness. Bottom line - I'm selling my East Retro 01 - slot this into pretty much any Jazz bass and you're away. It's the new style "solder less connection" model, so all you'll need is a little screwdriver and you're away. Awesome bit of kit still with the original box, instructions and paperwork. SOLD
  14. PICTURE! [IMG]http://i1221.photobucket.com/albums/dd471/paul_510/P5180599.jpg[/IMG] Sorry for shouting.
  15. Selling my EBS Unichorus, comes with the original box and is in great nick. Been mounted on a board ever since I got it, so it's got velcro on the bottom. It's one of the slightly older models (buffered bypass) and sounds amazing. UnIChorus SOLD Also i'm moving on my EBS tremolo pedal. In equally good condition but no box. SOLD
  16. I was once asked by a saxophonist if I could DI the drums...
  17. here it is again - [sharedmedia=core:attachments:86245]

    We're back...

    Thanks to all involved in fixing the internet. Well done you!
  19. is this thread mainly about OD pedals? I've tried loads of different dirt boxes, most of which I've moved on because they just didn't float my boat. There are some instances where only an effect will do - fretless and an octaver, Jazz bass and envelope filter - it's all about context. ..and loads of effects.
  20. [quote name='wally8' timestamp='1337150622' post='1656116'] I need Sabbath, soundgarden, led zep. [/quote] As do we all! I've only played through the Orange, and I absolutely loved it. It's not hi-fi enough for me, but I can appreciate that it does vintage valve sound brilliantly. I've heard very mixed opinions of the PF stuff from Ampeg.
  21. My valet does my page-turning. He also makes a spiffing Gin Fizz.
  22. Enthusiasm - 95% Musical Perception - 99% Emotional Connection - 76% Social Creativity - 75% Musical Curiosity - 49% [IMG]http://i1221.photobucket.com/albums/dd471/paul_510/ScreenShot2012-05-15at211904.png[/IMG] bit of a mixed bag - I could look into my low score in the 'Curiosity' stakes, but I'm not willing to put the effort into finding out why that is.
  23. Jeff bought a fretless neck from me and the whole transaction was speedy, polite and painless. He's a newbie but a goodie - deal with confidence.
  24. [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1337028013' post='1654397'] Not very "rock n roll" is it organising gig dates over a year in advance? How do we know they'll still be alive? [/quote] You hush yo' mout' Red X!
