[quote name='artisan' post='577729' date='Aug 22 2009, 06:20 PM']went into PMT Leeds today hoping they'd have an Epi' EB0 just so i could try the short scale for myself before ordering a Gibson. unfortunately they didn't have one in but they did have a Korean made Epi EB3 which i had a go on & "wow" it's a beaut',it looks nice,plays nice & sounds nice so i just had to buy it.[/quote] hey - congrats ! although you're doing nowt for my gas... i'm fancying a black eb3... how's the neck-dive ? better or worse than a t-bird ?

tonal repetoire ? that's in your fingers, that is

a dab of flux, maybe...to cut through any grease and gunk ? and is your iron heated up properly ?

the bodies of pots are usually lacquered iirc, so the first thing you should do is to cut through that to get to the bare metal - a small file or piece of emery paper should do the trick

and who are we to comment anyway ? we're not even playing proper guitars.

peter hook

excellent...look forward to hearing the sound samples.

very nice...the back of the body is lovely...

those series 6 monsters kicked what i believe the french call 'la derriere'

[quote name='budget bassist' post='571297' date='Aug 17 2009, 04:02 AM']shrinking the size? more like doing away with and replacing with a warwick logo in fairness i would like one of the new rockbasses, whenever they decide to release them this decade [/quote] i'm very tempted by one of the new rb fortresses....but as you say [i]when[/i] they come out.

the bridge on the bass looks a lot more G&L than musicman to me.

changing the shape of the neck [i]and[/i] shrinking the size of the rockbass logo on the RB basses... whatever next ?

sounds good doesn't it ? now...i've got some money in my paypal account too. hmm....

i know a couple of people here have used them, and i've been checking around to see opinions on the web (bassfuzz.com, for example)... any other opinions floating round in the ether ?

nothing improves your playing like being in a band. get out there and go for it ! plus the one on buying a larger amp - you'll be needing it when you start gigging

[quote name='BurritoBass' post='570502' date='Aug 16 2009, 11:05 AM']I don't want to make it in the industry and gave up 10yrs ago but I feel I am making it with music. It's a much happier place to be![/quote] plus the one.

[quote name='warwickhunt' post='563307' date='Aug 8 2009, 09:01 AM']Nope, the aesthetics are lost on me, that looks U.G.L.Y. Sorry! [/quote] plus the one, but then i've yet to see an alembic bass design i [i]do[/i] like.

the further you rotate the sensitivity control clockwise, the higher the compression ratio (i don't own one - this is what the manual says) hth

[quote name='mrcrow' post='570217' date='Aug 15 2009, 08:43 PM']well i am here in the living room with the lights off so i will join you in the dark brilliant sunset tonight /jealous burp/[/quote] sadly the small skies in london meant that i didn't see it. BUT...the inspirational power of guinness ! guess who forgot about the old 'boss power supply magic'...the chorus won't work with a standard wall wart unless it's grounded through another pedal via the input cable shield. so...there's nowt wrong with it - it's just a sad case of operator error. at least i cleared the frozen screw and got a replacement to slide in cheers !

[quote name='mrcrow' post='570207' date='Aug 15 2009, 08:34 PM']sorry mark hope that you get it dried out...slowly and in a dry place...airing cupboard or a greenhouse/shed cheers geof[/quote] well, it looks dry as a proverbial now (it's been outside in the shade all day)...just about to grab a multimeter, a screwdriver and a guinness and see if anything looks abviously wrong. /sluurp/

[quote name='lateralus462' post='570101' date='Aug 15 2009, 06:16 PM']I will be ordering one next week when I get paid - I'll post my thoughts up here after I've had a chance to get to grips with it. I think I might need to get an expression pedal to go with it as well - that function looks pretty kick ass!![/quote] nicely nicely
