  2. Even though my Mark Bass head isn't the one in question i have to speak up for just how amazing Mark Bass amps are! i'd safely say you won't be disappointed with the unit if you decided to go with it!
  3. Hey Guys, Don't really want to put this up as i have wanted one for so long but like many others i simply don't have the time to use this properly, my band is almost gigging full time, i'm working crazy hours at work and my girlfriend is taking the rest of my time up, so i'm offering this absolutely mint MPC 500 up for trade, i'd be looking primarily for rack gear or effects for my bass i can use live ideally rack compressors and tuners, but i will welcome any trades, guitars, basses, studio gear, any effects etc if you're interested get in touch, if i absoltely had to sell it it would have to be £325 as i have upgraded the ram to 128mb from 16mb and it comes with a 2gb CF Card.

  4. Haha, i think my guitarist would be very unhappy if i rocked up to band practice with 3 whammies, he's the effects guy, he has a wah pedal in to a wheeping demon in to a boss pitch shifter and then in to one of those mahoosive Line 6 M13 Modeler pedals so he has a lot of crazy noises going on, I'll look in to the Digitech Whammy, see what it can do! Thanks for the help guys, lets hope it does what i want it too!
  5. Hey guys, Need a bit of help here, a couple of years back i had a Boss GT6B, one of the effects on that pedal was an Octaver that was controlled by the Select Wheel, and correct me if im wrong that effect allowed you to change the Octave Cent a massive -1200 Cents and back up to 1200 cents of the original pitch? in short it was very very fun and super easy to mess around with. My question is are there any Octave Pedals on the market that allow you that much freedom with a similar Select Wheel or Knob so you can shift the octave back and forward insanely quickly over a massive range. And as a quick note i know it would be easy to just get another GT6B but i really don't want to be lugging Nasa's Launch Pad Control desk around with me to gigs. Cheers in advance for any help.
  6. I have only played 3 shows with my Markbass Little Mark C Head, and everybody so far has been blown away, every sound guy loves it, my Warwick loves it, its the best bit of kit i have ever bought.
  7. I managed to pick up those Jamiroquai bass books by Si Merrick back in the day, very very wise investments indeed! Big heads up to his site [url="http://www.thebassment.info/"]http://www.thebassment.info/[/url] for some awesome transcriptions and lessons.
  8. Beautiful stuff mate! Congratulations! I really really need to try a fanned fret bass! everytime i see a dingwall i go weak, your bass even more so.
  9. Nice!! if that glows on stage under the lights you'll look A W E S O M E.
  10. From personal experience i just can't enjoy a bass with more than 4 strings, I've had 5's, 6's and even given an 8 string FBEADGCF tuned bass ago! But i have never been able to get on with them. I agree with your point however, my band has a large majority of songs in Drop C Sharp and a couple in standard, while the guitarists all change guitars or tune up i just sit in C and move my notes up the neck!
  11. love it... [b]"Muddy Hips Hopkins"[/b] my main man Zender while not a strict Jazz player is an amazing bass player with an enviable name.
  12. Tye Zamora - Alien Ant Farm..... An awesome nut job.
  13. I for one am extremely happy, i have an '88 Stage II with a dream like neck, and thus far i have had to sell an '04 LX, '08 Double Buck, and an FNA Jazzman all because i couldn't handle the fat neck, and i have big hands... Very wise decision Warwick.
  14. Thought i may as well join in here too! my latest rig, very loud, compliments my Warwick very well, seems to love my Drop C Sharp tuning so naturally i'm very happy! I haven't gigged this yet, however my band has two gigs in one day today! so its going to get a good testing!
  15. [quote name='waynepunkdude' post='566344' date='Aug 11 2009, 10:33 PM']VMJ GAS is getting worse. Maybe I should get one before saving for a 400+...... hmmm[/quote] For under 200 sheets mate you can't go wrong, its a seriously fun bass.
  16. Not the best photos in the world as they're off my phone but here is my new Rig for my bands upcoming gigs and recordings. The Warwick is tuned Drop C sharp and the Jazz is in standard, the Markbass head is really really ridiculously loud! Beautiful! I haven't gigged this yet, but my band has two gigs in one day down in Pompey in the afternoon and then Southampton in the evening! *controversial?* both happening on Saturday the 15th August! Can't wait! For all the Pompey boys i'm playing Havant Arts Center for the Sounds of Summer festival, if you're about come and let me know what you think! 5 bands during the Daylight Sessions with my band headlining! any way enough waffle! Have some pictures!!
  17. Its not exactly relevant to the sale of the bass but i think this is the first Jazz bass that made me say "wow" Gorgeous! very fond of that headstock too!!
  18. Thats a very interesting looking bass, i have never seen one of those before.... Far too blonde for me, but good luck with the sale.
  19. Nevermind that! look at how much he sold this rusty box for, [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290315708163"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=290315708163[/url] the guys raking it in! or of course for £6000 more you could have a less rusty one [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1965-Dallas-Range-Master-Treble-Booster-Mint-with-BOX_W0QQitemZ270434527680QQcategoryZ41418QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp4340.m215QQ_trkparmsZalgo%3DSIC%26its%3DI%252BC%252BS%252BIA%26itu%3DUS-BWR%252BUCI%252BUCC%252BIT%252BUA%26otn%3D8%26ps%3D33"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1965-Dallas-Range-Ma...n%3D8%26ps%3D33[/url] Beautiful history though, check out the hand drawn schematics!
  20. I'm a self confessed Headphone Geek, for recording or practicing bass i use my AKG K141 Studio's they're just awesome, *check out the end of the film Bruno for alot of AKG K141 love*, when i really need everything flat and level i use my Beyer Dynamics, for listening i predominantly use Sony MDR V500's as they can be laid out flat with their movable housing, but these are terrible for recording as they're pretty treble biased but great for trains and when you want to ignore the existance of other human beings, i have various pairs of Sennheisers lying around but i have never got on with them, the 202's and 205's are very bass heavy and i can't wear them too well, they're not great for recording with, i have a pair of Sony MDR V150's and for £12 they blow the Sennheisers out the water. But for the £70 they cost me the AKG's are essential.
  21. [quote name='Rowbee' post='553275' date='Jul 27 2009, 10:10 PM']I have one and it's a great pedal if used subtly and sensibly, although sometimes some out and out whacky distortion can sound cool too. [/quote] When i buy one of these pedals its going to be used to back up our rhythm guitarist on my bands louder songs and harder chorus', my Markbass head gives me a fantastic driven sound with a gain boost but i need a dramatic distorted shift when everything kicks in, should be ideal....!
