  1. Mine had the crackling prob, it's fairly common on these. A squirt of switch cleaner did the trick
  2. The same happened to me with my shuttle six, when playing a festival last year. It's the only time I've had a problem when using this amp, so I put it down to the generator.
  3. Very nice. some Warwicks leave me cold, but that is lovely.
  4. Shame mate. Sure Andy will be as helpful as usual. Like I said I love mine and haven't noticed any lacking in top end, but maybe the shuttle six and markbass cabs help to give me the sound I like. Good luck with tonights gig. Gary.
  5. Thanks chaps, but still can't get on.
  6. Sold and awaiting payment
  7. Anyone else having trouble getting on their website or is just me?
  8. Hello dearest daughter, welcome to bass chat. Now you will know what I do with myself all day, so don't tell mum. Also DON'T look in the For Sale sections....you have been warned
  9. haven't bumped this for a while.
  10. Check out the Classic and Cool Guitars web site.
  11. I've been using the Shuttle 6 for the last couple of years and have been extremely pleased. It has proved very reliable and plenty loud enough for my needs. No issues so far, other than a crackly master volume knob, which I think a few of them have suffered from. All sorted with some switch cleaner. On one gig it got a bit sulky and cut out momentarily, but we were being powered by a generator, which I think was the problem. I've been using it with Mark Bass cabs so not sure how helpful my opinion can be given you cab choice is very different. Are you after getting the same sound as your current amp or something different? All the best, Gary
  12. How did the installation go then Dave?
  13. Dave. You will be delighted I'm sure. I fitted 84's to my Squier Jazz a couple of years back and have sinced played many a gig with it. To my ears it has sounded just right, suitably turbo charged but not harsh. Other bass players and even guitarists have complimented me on the sound.
  14. Just shown this thread to my wife, to ensure a moan free future.
  15. Welcome back from the darkside
  16. Thanks for the advice chaps.
  17. Yes remember when I discovered that on my trace. Suddenly had the sound I wanted when gigging. Still miss my trace rig, but not the weight.
  18. I've been test driving a few Ibanez bassess recently and last week tried out a secondhand edb600. I was impressed by the build quality and the weight. Sounded good plugged in, although a little dull when played acoustically but that was probably down to the strings being a bit tired. I'm interested on opinions about this particular mode and Ibanez in general. I have found sound reviews on line, but I'm keen to get BC'ers views. Thanks in advance. Gary
  19. I like to keep one foot in contact with the kick drum legs/stand, that way I can really feel it.
  20. Use them a lot myself, very useful.
  21. Thanks for that Bilbo, Cheered me up on a very glum day. Gary
  22. [quote name='Old Horse Murphy' post='817938' date='Apr 25 2010, 11:16 AM']I'll weigh it properly after for you Gary, but I would say it's around 8lbs. It certainly is very comfortable. We played for nearly 3 hours on Friday and I had no issues whatsoever.[/quote] Thanks that would be appreciated. Cheers, Gary
  23. Good man. Did exactly that to the volume pot on my precision last week, worked a treat
  24. I've only heard good things about him. I know that he has BC customers, so sure one of them will be along soon with some info. I love the the blue precision that he has and would love to buy it for my daughter. Made in the year she was born and her favourite colour. All the best, Gary
  25. Impressive, that looks like a beaut. I know you say it is light, do you know the weight? Just interested as I'm having problems when gigging at the moment, and I have been considering lighter options. Cheers, Gary
