  1. Got for sale here a Laney R3. Is in mint condition and is the older series with the award winning Richter speakers. 165 watts, great for gigging, band rehersals or just practicing in your room.

    Would prefer if buyer could collect but will post if the right offer is made.

    No pictures as of yet sorry (can't find my camera) but will hopefully have some up soon but as said before it's in mint condition so Google images will help you out if your desperate.

    Will also be up for trades if you have what im after - Cabinet able to withstand a 450 watt head, preferably Marshall.

    Cheers, Mike

  2. Hey guys, long time no post

    Well for sale I have my Crafted in Japan 1962 re-issue Precision bass. Have only had this baby for less than a year now and the reason im selling it is due to 4 strings just not being my thing.

    As you can see in the picture its in a classic colour combination - Arctic white and Rosewood fretboard and the tort pick guard really sets it off. I know the picture is not the best but trust me this thing is in perfect condition.

    Bass comes with a new set of Elixers (already on), strap and hardcase.

    Would rather meet up for exchange than pay for shipping as im a skint student but if the distance is too far/expensive than i can post.

    As for price give me some offers!

    Cheers for looking, Mike :)

  3. okay please read my post in which i stated what i wanted in this custom wah

    do you think a analogue pedal is going to be capable of having all that?

    now look at all the mutli-effect units out, they are the majority if not all digital this is due to fact that with digital pedals it is eay to programme them to come up with a differetn sound at a flick of the switch

    im not asking you to trust me just see where im coming from

    oh yeah and its not just my Crybaby that was a problem i have tried and asked other peeps about there pedals and they have said the same thing

  4. [quote name='cheddatom' post='56898' date='Sep 7 2007, 11:51 AM']How could you have a wah with no moving parts? Unless instead of "digital" you're meaning "optical" in that some pedals use light/ldr type deal as opposed to a physical pot. Some other people have said above, but, there is nothing inherently better about digital products. You certainly couldn't generalise and say "digital wahs are better quality than analog".
    Has anyone else tried the wah probe on bass? I seriously think it's amazing, more people should try it![/quote]

    e.g im looking at my Digitech EX-7 expression pedal for guitar and the only moving part on it is the pedal, now if you get a wiring diagram for a Crybaby look how much sh*t is in there

    at the end of the day man i paid lots of money for my Crybaby and it was full of problems - kept breaking and the quality of wah it produced varied

    since then (and were talking years here) i have bought and used nothing but digital and how happy am i with there sound and quality? 100%

  5. [quote name='alexclaber' post='56892' date='Sep 7 2007, 11:42 AM']I think you misunderstand the difference between analogue and digital electronics - sounds like you're comparing pure electronics and electronics with electromechanical parts.

    I have never come across custom digital pedals. Digital sounds no better than analogue - both can be great depending on implementation. Analogue pedals are much easier to fix than digital pedals and in my experieince less likely to break in the first place.

    okay, before i start can i warn you i am crap at naming things and explaining stuff...

    firstly there are companies out there who build custom effects pedals - in fact it was a user on here who suggested and posted a link to one in the U.K saying how impressed with his he was

    secondly in the long run digital pedals do sound better than analogue, sure when you open up a new analogue pedal and compare it to a digital pedal there both going to sound great but over time due to the analogue pedal having moving and more parts than a digital e.g a resistor, flow gate etc comparred to just a microchip what do you think isd going to happen to all those components over time - i bet the computer made part in the digital lasts longer and sounds better in a coulpe of years than the many man made parts in a analogue pedal which will need replacing

    trust me man when i first started playing and i knew nothing about pedals etc i bought all analogue pedals as they tend to be cheaper than digital ones and all of them sounded either crappy or not as good as their digital counter-parts - even the Crybaby i had was a night-mare

  6. [quote name='metaltime' post='56865' date='Sep 7 2007, 10:37 AM']i have a six string l/h schecter i really like it except the finish but it plays very well.[/quote]

    where did you get that from - i have looked everywhere and couldnt find any?

    or did you import it from the U.S?

    thats what i had to do to get my Stilleto Studio 5

  7. the reason i prefer Digital over Analogue is that imo the said effect sounds alot better and also you tend not to have any problems with them due to there being no moving parts that could potentially break or need replacing etc...

  8. Has anyone seen a left handed Ibanez SR506 in the U.K as I have just spent my whole night looking everywhere and can't find one.

    I really want a 6 string and apart from going custom this seems to be the best one out there.

    If not I guess I will just have to keep a look out on ebay - there was a lefty Douglas 6 on not long ago, might see if I can still get it.

    Cheers

  9. you know guys i have just realised that the specifications that i want in a wah are just too much for any company to come up with...

    True Bypass - On/Off
    Digital
    Volume
    Amount of Wah
    Different types of wah on it also - Auto, Synth etc

    i think im gonna have to stick to my origianl idea and go custom

  10. So I have been searching around for a while now as to what Wah to get and I have come to the conclusion that there are only really two competitors out there:-

    Morleys Bass Dual Wah

    Jim Dunlops Bass Wah

    ...so my question to you is which is better?

    With the Morley it can be turned off and has a 'Funk' setting which sounds pretty cool but with the Dunlop its what all the greats use and its there Wah im trying to emulate e.g Flea, Timmy C, Robert Trujilio etc...

    I play all sorts of music so I want it to be versatlie too.

    Cheers
