  1. [quote name='LewisK1975' timestamp='1475162421' post='3143626'] Or, the only 10 people left in the pub are all filling the doorway, love that one. Having to say, excuse me / watch your backs please, every time you go back and fore. [/quote] Almost every gig, what is it with drunk punters and doors!!!
  2. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1475150704' post='3143458'] I don't know... a P bass with rounds played with a pick through a VT Bass and your amp of choice would get you close, I'm sure. [/quote] [quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1475151048' post='3143463'] Put a Super Midget on top of one or both SC's. [/quote] 2 good schools of thought there
  3. [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1475086950' post='3142984'] Yep, the highs on these Retro cabs are a fair bit different to the other BF cabs. I`ve found them to be too smooth for my current needs, as a result the gain/drive/aggression that I need doesn`t come through, so am going back to the more regular BF cabs which are clearer , but if looking for a smooth sounding cab these are ideal. Eventually I intend to play in a Motown style band, once I hang up my punk boots so to speak, at that point a couple of the 210s will be in my armoury. [/quote] Ah nuts, I was thinking of moving on my SC's to get a Retro cab setup to help with my barracuda bass sound. Sounds like Retro's would work with the Ska sound but not the punk
  4. Lots of good stuff on the Greenboy Forum to take a look at. http://greenboy.us/forum/
  5. [quote name='Chopthebass' timestamp='1473957721' post='3134543'] Raggy, I made the case for the amp and rolled on Duratex. Did same for cabs [/quote] It's a cracking job.
  6. Good to see you back Sir, what a great looking rig. Can you tell me about that case for the GK?
  7. Always great fun, (particularly the night we played for 300 Para's who were going on deployment the day after), but all our gigs came through agents.
  8. [quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1473676613' post='3132103'] Have you got a link, for instance to FB etc.? It would make it easier for me to share this thread on our Twitter account. [/quote] https://www.facebook.com/whoareyouTheWhoTributeband/?fref=ts Thanks Silvia
  9. [quote name='Lw.' timestamp='1473675120' post='3132080'] Yikes - that's bad news! I'll keep an eye out. Where in Reading was the stuff stolen from? A gig?! [/quote] Cheers Lw. It was after a gig in a venue called The Butler, but outside the home of one of the band.
  10. Hope its Ok to put this on here, its from a friend. [color=#1D2129][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]"Some of you may have heard that Who Are You? had some £7 K worth of equipment stolen last night. Of particular loss is a Fender Jazz USA Deluxe Bass in Wine Red, an Aria SB 1200 bass with Bartollini pick ups, a rare ATS bass cab, Carvin BX500, Allen & Heath Zed 22FX desk and numerous mics, cables etc. If anyone is offered any of the above please let us know! Thanks"[/font][/color] [color=#1D2129][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]This happened in Reading. Sept 9th[/font][/color]
  11. [quote name='Maude' timestamp='1471981778' post='3117485'] Pah! I used to respect Foxton but he'll never get his trademark cutting tone on a woolly Ashdown, and what is he thinking mixing speaker sizes? Perhaps he should sign up here and be educated a bit. Come on Foxton, must try harder! [/quote]
  12. [quote name='Billy Apple' timestamp='1471874845' post='3116586'] What rig is he using? [/quote] One of the big Ashdown tube heads (BTA) and Ashdown 4x10 and 2x15 cabs i believe.
  13. [quote name='luckman67' timestamp='1471716470' post='3115308'] The third was a Washburn semi acoustic which I only caught the headstock.Strings and picks were both from Rotosound,it looked like the picks were .96mm. I will have to find this picture on my phone, there was a pedal board but not sure if it was his or the guitarists. Hope the show goes well. [/quote] That third semi acoustic bass is a Waterstone Brighton '64 bass, not sure that are made any more, but they sure do look good.
  14. Fearless F115 or Barefaced Dubster in Swindon Andy, (as Im pretty sure you have said before you travel to Bristol usually in the week).
  15. [quote name='icastle' timestamp='1468266698' post='3089762'] BassChat never has been, and never will be, a welcome haven for fraudsters and scumbags and we will kill such accounts without hesitation. [/quote] [attachment=223331:Pulp-Fiction-pulp-fiction-13189233-1920-810.jpg] Love this place, high 5 to the Mods.
  16. Ive been through a fair few different pickups in my P basses that i use in my Ska band and all have been well up to the job, just got to remember to roll that tone control back a bit. P Retro's are awesome pieces of kit but I have found I'm favouring my passive sounds now.
  17. Very nice, cracking photos as well.
  18. Lovely, worth sitting in the hall for most of the day
  19. I've recently picked up a Blacksmith, I know these are supposed to be slightly different (sounding) from the RH series of amps, so I am not much help to you there, but the features on the TC amps are fantastic, especially the 3 presets.
  20. [quote name='LewisK1975' timestamp='1466519392' post='3076447'] OK so I got a reply from Fender - they confirmed that it is indeed a factory mess up, the bass was built while the special run of crimson red ones were being made and someone has put a neck for a crimson red bass onto a black body. That makes it 'one of a kind' in my book. I'm having it. [/quote] [attachment=221954:420830.png] Great score
  21. Im guessing that must be one of the last 'older models' just before the change.
  22. [quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1465488381' post='3068710'] Cheers, Raggy! I actually get quite a few sarky comments from people via YouTube about the playing being boring, etc. But like you, I like to hear stuff in situ, so I'm sticking to my guns :-) [/quote] Good on ya
  23. [quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1465471431' post='3068503'] I made a couple of clips with the Red Fighter this morning. I know, it's the same track over and over again, but it's the only thing I know how to play.... :-) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTTUiMUjsdk[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qT9ooqfVI0[/media] [/quote] Sounds gert lush with the flats on, and IMHO the best way to show an amp or instrument with different strings or settings, no pointless noodling, thanks for that, i do enjoy your demo's. Just wish it was 4ohm in bridge mode for my tastes.
  24. I think mine would be: Jean-Jacques Burnel Horace Panter Bruce Foxton Donald 'Duck' Dunn Steve Harris
