  1. Sadly I have no pics of me lunging. Emailed in regardless... With a nice plug for my band of course
  2. I've tired using a power supply and using just batteries. Still nothing. It's not really a major issue
  3. Gonna have another play with a few other pedals and see if I can get it working. It's not a major issue but it's annoying
  4. I recently bought a Nux Mod Core from rmorris on here. (The pedal is amazing btw, really love the sounds I'm getting from it). My issue is I want to use it in conjunction with my Digitech Bass Driver but I'm not sure if I want the Nux before or after the Digi so I was just messing around with placement. Everything works fine with the Nux 1st but for some reason when I put the Nux after the Digitech I get NOTHING. All the cables work fine and both pedals work on their own. Any ideas cause I'm totally confused! Cheers
  5. Played a gig at Unplug in Birmingham on Sunday. I've played there before and the stage is horrible. Very small and there's a support pillar right in front of where I stand. First time using my new bass loud and my god she is loud. Had a few technical issues mid set with the pa and as a result we over ran our 30 min slot by about 3 mins at which point the promoter had a go at our guitarist.. Which promted us to pack up and leave
  6. I've never broken a string on stage or had any sort of failures but I still take a back up with me. I used to take two basses with me for different tunings but we now use the same tuning for most songs
  7. It's a bolt on neck. 6 bolts if I remember correctly
  8. [quote name='megallica' timestamp='1400763011' post='2456737'] Was this bass second hand? I owned one of these custom 5 basses about four years ago and havent seen any around recently. Congrats on the new bass. [/quote] I was told that pmt had it ordered in for a custom who decided he didn't like it so pretty much brand new. Looks like it's hardly been touched so if it is 2nd hand it had a very good owner
  9. I would also like to add that the customer service I received while in PMT was just amazing.
  10. [quote name='cclowend' timestamp='1400708255' post='2456377'] Our guitarist is a bit emotional. I couldn't do that to him. [/quote] More reason to take it all!
  11. Been playing her all night and wow! Had to slightly raise the saddles as I was getting a tiny bit of fret buzz but just wow. Plays so nice and sounds fantastic. The low B(which I tune to A) really kicks you in the chest.

  13. I recently came into some unexpected money so i decided I would get a new bass. Spent a few hours in Brum with a £400 budget. Tried guitarguiar first and saw a lovely LTD. Then headed over to PMT where i ended up buying a Schecter Diamond Series Custom 5. Such a beauty.Nice smooth neck. YlGreat Tone. Plays like a dream
  14. Way too small for my giant feet. I'd end up stomping on the whole pedal and messing up the settings
  15. Played a Battle of the Bands at the Iron Road Rock Bar in Evesham last night (we got thru the first round). Really great venue. Full of bikers which is great as bikers seem to love our style. Sound was really good FOH but couldn't hear sh*t all on stage. Played thru a little line 6 combo... Really didn't sound great but it did the job. Bagged another two gigs at the venue in the coming months
  16. Ended up taking it to get repaired. Only cost me £30. I think he said some of the power transistors (?) had blown and needed to be replaced. All I know is it works again
  17. I used to prefer a 1x15 but now I've grown older and a bit more wise I like the sound of 10s. I do play thru a 2x10 and a 1x15 so I get the best of both worlds
  18. So I decided to take a closer look at the main board. One of the resistors seems to have a scorch mark on it. Would that be the reason it's playing up? [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/X38v8SE.jpg[/IMG]
  19. Well my head is currently broken (see my other thread) so for the time being I'm gonna focus on getting that fixed. Then get myself a new speaker. Any recommendations? (don't have a lot of money to spend)
  20. Ok so it was working fine. But then stopped working but this time when I turn the output knob I get an odd crackle and the speakers move. I opened the head up aand one of the fuses had blown so I bought some new ones and changed both. Still doing the same thing. All the cable are attached and nothing looks blown. Help!
  21. Yeah I'm gonna ask him how he's wired the speakers up. I'm really hoping he's done it in series so I can still use my full stack if needed or just the 15" for smaller gigs. At least till I can afford to buy myself the right speaker and I'll just wire the thing myself
  22. He was planning on moving to Greece anyway. Maybe this was just a rush job. Had tthis from him It was a 4ohm speaker but they way the cab is originally wired should make the cab between 5 or 7 ohms. Which is an 8ohm load.
  23. I've just taken a look at both speakers. The original speaker is 16ohm and the replacement is 4ohm. I would ssend it back to get the proper speaker fitted but the guy's no longer in the country :-\
