Its possible we were under attack last night. We also had a number of no-name accounts registered at the same time. The cloud message is the security service we started using last month. If the site is under attack the forum may go offline briefly while the service learns what is going on and restores the forum.

Mazda EC833's in the preamp section normally Nick. KT77's in the power amp section.

Freemasons. Always liked them but am in need of uplifting music while I continue ploughing through document edits.

A lot of it depends on what waveforms you need. Most bass synth sounds are based on square or saw wave forms. Synth pedals will cover one or both of these. Then the rest of it depends on whether patches you like a pre programmed or whether you have the option of tweaking. I've been lobbying Eventide to release a bass synth pedal that uses the tech in their Pitchfactor pedal but without the irrelevant stuff. The tracking is as good as the Deep Impact. But so much potential.

Ooh, don't stand on formality. Goodness knows I'm isolated enough here as it is.

Let me know if you make it over. I'll be the one dressed like Elvis...in stormtrooper armour

I'm going to see Flight of the Conchords on the 26th of June. Not expecting to see many BCer's...

site has crashed.

I held the cat over strings on my bass once and it made a similar noise.

Can't help unfortunately. But I have a few of my instruments microchipped. Yes, in an identical way to pets. That way if (god forbid) I have anything stolen I'll at least be able to remove all doubt that its mine.

I'm scared Scott. I'm scared that deconstructing the groove will be like statistical analysis of humour. Any advice?

I've always wondered what happened to the graphite necked Ritter with a soft velvety fabric covering that was advertised on here many many years ago. Would have been a bargain compared to prices now.

The pot locations match, the pickups match. There's an additional bit of scratch plate and clearly its routed for another pickup. Why look further?

Looks like a heavily modified Fender Precision Elite II to me.

Starting to regret not registering basschap.co.uk...

I emailed Mr Agnew about the possibility of a super champ inspired combo. This was his reply: [i]"Not as of yet ! I was hoping to start doing something along those lines but it going to be well over 12months before we can look at it more seriously...[/i] [i]...check back again sometime later next year when I hope to be putting out a rivera era' fender oriented type amp...

My Shuker Headless 6 runs into an Axon AX100 pitch to MIDI convertor which drives a Roland JV1080.

An I-lok is just a USB drive. I have one for proTools. The right files still need to be on it. You can use an I-lok to store files for more than one piece of software though, which can be handy.

So this is the site? [url="http://cagnewguitars.com/Contact.html"]http://cagnewguitars.com/Contact.html[/url] [quote name='Bassnut62' timestamp='1339761929' post='1693878'] PS. fine set of interests you have there, old fruit! tally ho, up the empire, wot, wot!![/quote] Up Pompei also. Haw haw haw.

[quote name='LawrenceH' timestamp='1339757236' post='1693772'] And I'd be changing the overall tension as well as damping by how I held the neck and body. [/quote] If you were putting more tension on the neck and changing the tension of the string you would be changing the pitch. If you weren't changing the string tension but just helping the instrument become stiffer, then you could expect more sustain. I doubt you could change the dampening characteristics of the materials however because you're not changing how the string contacts the instrument at fret/nut and saddle. [quote name='Johnston' timestamp='1339756509' post='1693755'] I know that there are differences between species BUT I a m also sure they don't say theres a bit of oak lets build from it. would I be correct in saying that it is checked it is suitable first? But we are not talking about structural properties but the properties involved in influencing tone or timbre . How vibrations transmit through it. I would say that even a small change would have a big affect if the wood was a major influence of tone. [/quote] Oak instruments have been made in the past. They didn't catch on. Fodera use ash in their necks now, as well as their bodies and I believe MTD do as well. Wood grain and structure may or may not have an influence but I suggest it's moot unless someone can tie those differences into what is heard/felt. As I said earlier, its possible for two pieces of wood from different species to have similar characteristics.
