    thanks for the tips guys.

    i reckon i'll be picking one up over the weekend. i'm sure it won't be a patch on my ampeg pre, but it's sure going to sound better than a straight line to the desk.

    i know that paul, the has one of these and is happy with it...anyone else tried one ?

    i'm going to be playing a radio session soon for a community radio station and will miss the sound of my ampeg pre-amp.


    i know the di level isn't up to much, i'm curious how noisy it'll be.


    my sansamp was taken out by an exploding electric mistress a while back and i've not got the funds to replace it.

    hmm...i reckon you should exchange it if you can...


    i got a small clone recently and i love it...no hiss.


    edit: although - about the pop...i do get a click the first time i turn it on, but not after that...if it starts to annoy me i'm opening it up and seeing if a pull-down resistor helps.

    hmmm - they don't...

    [quote name='OutToPlayJazz' post='54636' date='Sep 3 2007, 11:07 AM']I always fancied one of those "baritone" VI's. Pity the reissue is so bloody expensive! It's recently been quietly dropped from the Fender website as well. Is it nice to play? I'd imagine that it's pick playing only with the strings so close together![/quote]

    once you get used to them you can play them with fingers or a pick, although part of the joy is to be able to play full guitar chord on a bass.

    strange interval advice

    i jam with some friends who play techno and breakbeat stuff and some of the tunes are based around flattened fifths (??)...(AD#...DG#...etc)

    and it always confuses me as to what scales to mooch around in.

    i'm no theory expert, so what kind of scales would you use to include those notes ?


    any advice would be appreciated.

    [quote name='Higgie' post='54869' date='Sep 3 2007, 06:22 PM']Kev, that's because both the Q-Tron and Big Muff are sh*te. I'm not a big fan of either of them.[/quote]

    no, no...tell us what you really mean :huh:

    [quote name='cheddatom' post='54608' date='Sep 3 2007, 10:18 AM']It seems weird that you have the q-tron after distortion, as it wont have as much dynamics to react with.[/quote]

    well i'm still tweaking....i don't usually run the q-tron and the muff at the same time...i use the (modded) rat and the q-tron together, and the rat and the muff...so it kindof works for me.

    specially as i've just got a ehx small stone :)
