  1. [quote name='ahpook' post='998893' date='Oct 24 2010, 02:52 PM']i've heard some bands that do the multi-bass thing quite well (rothko for example), but as for the all-star 'bass covention'-style jams i've seen posted here... they just don't do it for me.[/quote] I love loads of two and three bass bands. I've even been in some. But I agree with Mr. Pook here. Mind you, convention-style jams always sound awful to me, regardless of instrumentation.
  2. I've got a ZOOM H4 and the Edirol R-09HR. The Zoom's best feature is the two phantom-powered XLR sockets so that you can plug some really nice mics into it and record in setups other than X-Y. I would say that the Edirol has slightly better usability, size and battery life though.
  3. Sorry - I don't think I'd ever use an Ashbory either! Still for sale.
  4. Sorry - I already have 2 more Elvis mics than I need! Looking for recording studio mics really. BUMP.
  5. BUMP. The bass I was selling this to buy has sold to someone else. Grr. Still, this is for sale now I've made the decision. But I'm open to trades for microphones, or even an exciting bass.
  6. Just to say that I've played with the drummer from Ether in another project and he's quality.
  7. Bought a few months ago from eBay. I don't know what I was thinking. This sounds great but I'm never going to get to play it live. It just wouldn't look right with the stuff I'm doing at the moment. I bought it to travel with, but guess what? I almost never travel... 30" scale. Fast, low action. Big sound from the bridge humbucker. The neck is aluminium with wooden inserts, painted black. Schaller tuners at the "wrong" end. SOLD.
  8. Pics added. Plus, buy either pedal and I'l throw in a 5-way lead for your power adaptor.
  9. The first pedals in my latest round of sales. I'm finding I just don't use anything but distortion anymore. Grey EBS Octbass octave pedal. In nice condition. A couple of tiny nicks. [s]£50 picked up from London. £55 posted.[/s] [b]Reduced to £45 posted on 6th November.[/b] EHX Memory Boy. SOLD [added 6th November] BOSS DD7 delay. Picked up in a trade with Joe Garcia, but really not my thing. Excellent condition in box with manual. [b]£80 posted.[/b]

  11. Ah. I'm actually glad that it's a scam. That way I didn't miss out!
  12. Would someone please buy this in order to stop me doing so: [url="http://www.gumtree.com/london/07/66452607.html"]http://www.gumtree.com/london/07/66452607.html[/url] PLEASE.

  15. You and the other 20 people. I put the ad on Soundonsound.com. I have been drowning in replies since I sold it. It feels weird to me - SM7bs are great, but in no way rare. The M380 is hugely sought-after (by those who know) and rarely can you get hold of one.
  16. Two more mics that I need to get rid of (so that I can afford a second AKG C414). Shure SM7B SOLD Beyer M380 TG. This is a real rarity - a figure-8 dynamic mic. Long out of production. This is the rarer black finish, that differs from the commoner gold model only in the colour of the paint. A killer kick drum and bass cab mic, that can also thicken a double bass sound beautifully. Makes even a thin bass sound into a tempest. Details here: [url="http://recordinghacks.com/microphones/beyerdynamic/M380"]http://recordinghacks.com/microphones/beyerdynamic/M380[/url] but all you need to know is that Steve Albini lists this as one of his favourite kick and bass guitar mics ("This mic has a bass proximity boost you can curdle milk with."). Also selling because I have 2. And will probably never have 2 again. Looking for £260 picked up, or £270 posted. No trades please, unless you have an AKG C414B-ULS that needs a home.
  17. I have given in to www.addisonlee.com whenever I have to move a cab. High quality service, loads of amps space (I've carried a whole band's gear) and not as expensive as a real cab. Other than that, my mate Jim once brought his Mesa 400+, bass and Schroder 1212 to a gig on the tube.

  19. Last time I recorded a DB I used a Beyer M201 (hypercardioid dynamic) shoved up the bridge wrapped in foam, pointing at the fingerboard, and an AKG C414 B-ULS positioned about a foot away from the front of the bass. The M201 captured all the detail of the technique, and the 414 added a big, round, deep double bass feel. That was in a biggish rehearsal studio and came out sounding pretty good. The 414 was in cardioid mode to avoid picking up the baritone sax being recorded at the same time. I've also used an RE-20 positioned just in front of the F-hole. It gets a good sound provided that the DB player doesn't move their instrument!
  20. £50? Could have made £400! I stupidly looked at this and missed the price... Well done to the buyer!
