[quote name='Jamesemt' post='147116' date='Feb 26 2008, 09:59 AM']...speaking of North East, is there anyone out this way that wants a lift? I may be able to go if I can find someone to share fuel costs/stop me getting lost... I'm in Hull, but could go across to Manchester/Leeds I suppose - looks like Sheffield is on the way too. Is anyone bringing their other halves? Maybe we could setup a makeup/shoes/ perfume alternative for them [/quote] if my other half looked like yours youd be well advised to leave her at home!

anybody bringing any tech soundsytems cabs or the new tecamp variant?

Im sure nash got tht Ray from me, I got it new from Mike at the bass centre when they had there MM sale a steal I believe.

I've had this about 2 months now and played it in most scenarios, my Gospel Bands, a Wedding do and several Covers band rehearsals. With +- 20 odd db on the three band eq most sounds are easily available through a set flat eqd LM11 and UL310. I would say that the mid control is overly fierce in comparison to the bass and treble, I understand these are adjustable and will get it seen to next time I visit Bernie. The overall output is hugely powerful and you do need to be carefull with your pre settings initially, and you need quality kit to bring out all the tonal nuances and harmonics she can produce. I call it the slap switch but it actually changes the pickup setup from parrallel to series I believe. The difference is subtle but unmistakably "GB" and adds that instant slight zing and almost a sort of echo to your slap notes, hard to explain! Playablity is superb, I understand the shape has changed over the years, and this being the latest incarnation is hugely playable, the neck is a work of art satin smooth and between Jazz and PB at the nut, just right. One comment I would make is that the bottom strap button being offset to one side makes it difficult to balance against a wall or your cab so the use of a stand is essential with such an investment, I would have preferred perhaps the twin button setup ala Status basses, small thing but trying to be objective. Bernies use of some fancy woods in my opinion makes for one mighty pretty bass, almost too much so if I were to frequent any "Pub" gigs, so I must invest in a less valuable instrument for those occasions. The finish and workmanship is impeccable and I would urge folk to try one if they get a chance, its a large investment but at my time of life its about time I spent some on myself. There are several Custom manufacturers in this price region and for the investment you have a choice to make if you want to stray away from the usual Fender fare and be "different", folk tend not to ask what sort of bass is that for some reason, which is cool with me.

They sleep on the cover, which isn't bad really. You should see the state of my Ashdown EB though![/quote] do ya know where owen got the cover i could do with one to cover the UL310 you sole me, going great guns btw ta

Superb Job, well done, can anyone else see the Lakland Decade shape in there somewhere?

Hi all, thanks for the comments, sorry if I sound like a mod! My idea and indeed inspiration for this room, was that I love watching links to threads that feature good players,good tecnnicians,guys with groove etc etc, that I dont have time to surf myself. Thats all that I was looking to achieve. We all have our favourites, but I wasnt looking for another Mark King thrash I was looking for some inspirational videos of players, perhaps young or whatever that made us old gits sit up and take note and perhaps aspire us all to be that bit better. End of rant!

That looks sweet and quirky, suggest it gets moved to the porn section right away!

will have the Epi UL310 at the bash in march if anybody wants a go..

+1 for the Epi UL310 mega sound.

[quote name='EBS_freak' post='139855' date='Feb 13 2008, 08:55 PM']I take it you are still pleased with your purchase then andy? It certainly looks like it. What then next? A Rumour? Btw, Bernie is keeping hold of the other one of the triplets for the time being... the jazz configuration on it is pretty different and I think that he has developed a little bit of a soft spot for it. Mind you, he's got mine at the moment and I think I'll have to fight him for it to get it back! I've also put one of his EBS preamps in the Lakland DJ... jeez, that thing is on steroids now![/quote] Whys yours in at Bernies? for a set up? Ooo im well pleased, and coupled with the mb and the epi, i think i may have found my perfect setup.....except and u knew that was coming I might need a cheap bass for them crap venues and practices where i darent risk becksy!
