[quote name='BassManKev' post='201297' date='May 17 2008, 11:15 PM']i sold mine for 120 [/quote] for what i actually use mine for (wierd noises) i'm thinking of flogging it and buying a mega-cheap one. i do wonder what the fuss about them is tho...mine sounds fairly ropey.. guitarists eh ?

[quote name='BassManKev' post='201289' date='May 17 2008, 10:56 PM']that delay pedal is superb, i so regret selling mine, seems an age ago now lovely board [/quote] thank you those delays go for silly prices these days...

[quote name='Jean-Luc Pickguard' post='201279' date='May 17 2008, 10:23 PM']It is a bit tatty, there are screws missing and as the receipt says it doesn't have a tremolo, so that's probably a fair price [/quote] it's a shame it didn't come with ELO either

[quote name='BigRedX' post='201273' date='May 17 2008, 10:11 PM']If I was still in my last band and playing guitar I would have already hit the "Buy It Now" for the Gundam Axe guitar.[/quote] that's cool...but wtf can't i ever see the auctiva pics ??

well, i think i'm sorted with my main board - one of the guitarists today said i had the best sound i've had ever...so it must have been good for him to comment !! i bunged some of the other pedals i don't use into my smaller board, just to keep them tidy and for my peter hook impressions so here they are: main board at the top, satellite board at the bottom [size=1]god, that carpet's horrid[/size]

i can't see any pictures anyway !

shouldn't we be down the boozer getting trolleyed then ? happy birthday !!!

Maybe we'll go for a 4-bass lineup in the end ;-)[/quote] do let me know how you get on...i may even be able to find time if you're lucky. (don't you feel honoured ! )

[quote name='thisnameistaken' post='201082' date='May 17 2008, 03:41 PM']So an MXR Micro Amp, maybe? Not sure how you'd deal with the change in level between the clean and dirty sound though.[/quote] i've used my cae line booster (posh micro amp) with my ampeg pre and managed to get a good overdriven sound by driving the input a bit harder - unless you go berserk the extra compression that the valves give it when overdriven meant that the volume boost wasn't too bad. give it a whirl...

two fenders...my 86 jazz and my vi that's it.

blimey

[quote name='dougal' post='143484' date='Feb 20 2008, 01:18 AM']Man, I had one of them cira about 86! Traded it in for a blue crackle finish Aria MAB of some description. Nice bass![/quote] plus the one - lovely looking basses...if one turned for sale on ebay i'd be all over it like a rash

phew...now i don't feel like i have too many ! nice vi btw

ampeg svp-pro preamp soundtech ps802 power amp swr 2x12 400W cab peavey 4x10 350W cab. frankly...it rocks !!

ok, just to close the story i received a [i]brand new[/i] micro q-tron and steel leather this week, along with instructions from ehx not to daisy chain the steel leather. so good on the creative tools for sorting everything out as it's new, the q-tron's about to go up for sale on the forum, and i might be letting the steel leather go...i'm using a different sound now tbh. can't say it hasn't been interesting though !!!

[quote name='benwhiteuk' post='200696' date='May 16 2008, 08:19 PM']yeah i started a thread about my SVT-CL fan...I've not got round to replacing it yet[/quote] i should replace the ones in the soundtech i guess...but thsat would mean pulling it out of the rack, taking it apart....

yeah - whatever happpened about this ?

i'm tired of hearing cooling fans !! my soundtech power amp has noisy fans, i admit it...but they're not noticeable when you're playing live, but at home they drive me mad after about 30 mins. so at the moment i'm running my pre-amp into the effects return of my trace elliot head, as it's quieter... [b]but it's still driving me mad[/b] i'm actually thinking of getting a cheap low-wattage power amp that uses passive cooling at home just for some peace and quiet. anyone else feel like this ? sorry for ranting !

camera phone ? it's what i do

[quote name='thinman' post='200297' date='May 16 2008, 11:41 AM']In basic terms I keep coming back to thinking that there's no need to have anything louder than an unamplified drum kit. Maybe not the case?[/quote] plus the one...couldn't agree more.

[quote name='endorka' post='200256' date='May 16 2008, 10:50 AM']Yes, but sooner or later - preferably sooner - you begin to realise that there is a certain madness in pumping hundreds of watts into massive stacks of speaker cabs, only to "turn it down" again by putting ear plugs in.[/quote] plus the one. for years i used my trace elliot 150W head for every gig i played...never had any problems being heard, and if i did i made everyone turn down. imho anything over 400W is excessive....for a venue needing that on-stage volume to fill it, you're going to be going through a PA anyway, so hefting all those watts around seems like a waste of time. my current rig is a 400W...[i]more[/i] than enough in my experience.
