Oh yes!

What work has been done to the neck, James? And was it confirmed the old MEC pre was the problem with the electronics? Gorgeous SS1, this. Sounds like it may be a lot closer to it's full potential now, too -
The Vintage did very little for me, found it to be a very 'ordinary' overdrive, if that makes sense. Plenty of pedals doing similar things out there for a lot less money, not the same impact as the B3K for me.

[quote name='Maude' timestamp='1387229082' post='2309718'] If you are thinking about a Digitech BSW then GAK have them for £35 new, suckers are still paying more than that for second hand ones on ebay. [/quote] Well that's a tip. I had no idea these pedals had dropped in cost so much, swear I paid £50 or so a few years ago for one. I may well grab one!

FS/FT ASHDOWN CL610 6x10 1200w 4ohm Cab - REDUCED TO JUST £499
Kev replied to Kev's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
Still here -
I think this will go the same way as the other Streamer that was for sale and I will withdraw if it doesn't sell before Christmas. £1100 plus shipping, no offers. Trade value £1200, bass plus cash please. I will not be bumping this again -
[quote name='Buzzardist' timestamp='1387061286' post='2307944'] Go on Kev..nice Crimbo gift to ones self [/quote] If I had the moolah I would! But sadly I don't and the Dolphin aint going nowhere
-
Pardon my French, but F**k me. Gorgeous instrument and my birth year and month.
-
Great amps, these. Sound particularly good with the CL cabs... Bump -
They vary in price by loads. I was looking at getting one last year; I decide one wasn't worth £25 and didn't buy, the next one I saw was just shy of £100!

[quote name='BigBassBob' timestamp='1385685177' post='2291276'] Some excellent boards being posted, as per usual I've been waiting on a Subterranea for a few months now. I'm getting tempted by the You're Doom fuzz while I wait though! [/quote] Has he still not caught up? I don't miss mine too much if I am honest, I think it may have been rushed out a little in the end. What I think he should bring out is a large box Xerograph deluxe with the Subterrenea built in

[quote name='Guinness21' timestamp='1386701489' post='2303323'] I could really do with some help! I'm just about to put a pedalboard together. I'll be running an Aguilar TLC compressor, and a fuzz - probably a W & C tall font russian, or a musket or something like that. I also want to include an overdrive on the board - I'm considering both pedals in the title and the darkglass vmt too. I love the vintage-y sound of the vintage microtubes, but I've heard from a number of people that it just doesn't work either side of a fuzz. The b7k is awesome, but the EQ would only be adjusting the distorted tone - whereas the b3k with another preamp (probs tone hammer) wouldn't be the case. SO, what do I do? Does anybody have any experience of these pedals? Or any of the ODs alongside a fuzz? Any help much appreciated, thank youuu [/quote] Apologies if I am misreading what you say, but the B7K affects both the clean and distorted tone and having an EQ pedal after a B3k will be basically the same

Lovely lovely. Could be coming to back to this if my Streamer sells! Do pm me if trades interest you at all! -
A 98 is quite late, so it could be original. The Fortress was a more budget model after all, so they may well have trailed them on these later fortress basses before bringing them in a across the range.

[quote name='warwickhunt' timestamp='1386876760' post='2305906'] They are and I've never quite got why they did that, as it is minimal and can't make much if any difference! [/quote] Quit moaning about it and just sell it to me
-
Beauty. Want it, and I am trying to sell a streamer! I hate GAS.
-
...nice bass by the way!
-
Warwick can always be question marks sometimes, but I did think all stock Fortress basses had the brass nut, what year is it? If it is mid nineties it will certainly not be original, as the tedur nut didn't exist then having said that, I cannot think why you would change to that nut, unless it was during the refinish?
-
You're all wrong. It's six big muffs, half an apple and a funky stick, played through an old boot.

[quote name='Evil Undead' timestamp='1386663997' post='2302693'] The short one is just about the right size for me. But, I may be alone here, I found the back of the strap too slippery and it made neck dive worse. So I sent it back. [/quote] That is really quite uprising, I cannot imagine how it could be slippery at all! Was it faulty?
-
They did [i]what[/i] to the frets?!
-
Great sound, these basses. Pickups and Preamp really work well together.
-
I use a Mono, love it. Looks cool and feels nice to wear.

keeping the shiny look of a Warwick wenge fingerboard
Kev replied to Kev's topic in Repairs and Technical
Here is the pic, should hopefully be able to see the glossy look I am talking about: [attachment=150184:IMG_1597.JPG] As opposed to this pic of my old Thumb bass, with no sheen (board was lemon oiled whilst I owned it) [attachment=150185:SAM_0205.JPG] Again, it may be just my overexposure to old Warwicks and the fretboard will dull over time, but if it is polished in some way to keep it glossy I would like to keep it that way -
Oh, and cheers TheGreek for the blind recommendation !
