  1. You could make your own if you're handy with a soldering iron - it's quite a simple circuit that has various veroboard layouts posted around t'interweb.
  2. Not tried one myself but have heard many report that it is one if the best things they ever made, and that it sounds very close to the Sansamp BDDI. For the price I don't think you can go wrong.
  3. Also, if you have some recordings, put some tunes up on a Myspace account and become 'friends' with all the local venues and promoters. If they're looking for a band to fill a slot and they're feeling lazy, they might just go online and check out some of the local bands in their friends list.
  4. Cheap bungee cord you can get from Wilkinsons if there's one nearby. You can get good trolleys from Homebase and Maplin but they're cheaper on eBay - search for folding sack barrow: [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FOLDING-HAND-SACK-TRUCK-TROLLEY-VAN-BARROW-CART-44J_W0QQitemZ260444206794QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Lifting_Moving_Equipment?hash=item3ca3af36ca"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FOLDING-HAND-SACK-TR...=item3ca3af36ca[/url]
  5. Jamerson flats are like bridge cables. Chromes have pretty high tension too. If it's the tension you didn't get on with, try out some Pyramid Golds (medium tension) or TI jazz flats (floppy like spaghetti). For old-skool fingerstyle thump like on the old Motown and funk records, a P with flats is IT. I want another (hopefully 5 string) P for more agressive rock stuff though.
  6. [quote name='Stag' post='670945' date='Dec 1 2009, 12:24 PM']I must say ive been blown away by mine, after never having owned one since before last week in 15 years+ of playing. Versatile yet simple, effective in almost any situation. Everyone should have one! [/quote] No, everyone should have two! One strung with flats, one strung with rounds!
  7. Probably, it can get very loud. I've withdrawn it for now though and decided to hang onto it! Prices reduced on all other items!
  8. Yup, it's freaking huge, what were they thinking? What with the recent trend for tiny pedals and pedalboards you'd think they'd make it smaller than a bus.
  9. If you don't go for the Sandberg then might I suggest this, the best passive 5 string PJ out there that doesn't cost an arm and a leg: [url="http://www.rattleanddrum.com/product/3110/yamaha-bb415-bass-black-pearl-5-string"]http://www.rattleanddrum.com/product/3110/...-pearl-5-string[/url] I want a 5 string P myself but may get one of these instead since they're on sale for £269...
  10. F**k me! Offer postage on this thing and I'll bite your arm off. Bridge and headstock logo look like MIA to me folks!
  11. [quote name='babaseen' post='663116' date='Nov 23 2009, 08:12 PM']Anyone tried the G-Lab Wowee Bass Wah RWW-1 from Poland? G-Labs also has a true bypass pad that can be used with other wahs.[/quote] Although I prefer the sound of the Wilson:
  12. Unless you're really attached to the Ibby, I would just sell it and buy a fretless!
  13. [size=4][u][b] Creation Audio Holy Fire[/u][/b][/size] Homepage: [url="http://www.creationaudiolabs.com/holyfire"]http://www.creationaudiolabs.com/holyfire[/url] Reviews: [url="http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Effects/product/Creation+Audio+Labs/Holy+Fire/10/1"]http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews.../Holy+Fire/10/1[/url] Great natural sounding tubey overdrive, but more importantly it has glowing orange LEDs inside so it looks like it's on fire(!). This needs it's own dedicated 48v power supply, which comes included. Now sold on eBay! [size=4][u][b] Artec APW-7 Dual Mode Whish Wah[/b][/u][/size] Homepage: [url="http://www.artecsound.com/effect/apw-7.htm"]http://www.artecsound.com/effect/apw-7.htm[/url] Reviews: [url="http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Effects/product/Artec/APW-7/10/1"]http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews...rtec/APW-7/10/1[/url] A wah in a sturdy but light metal chassis, with a unique magnetic pot that doesn't wear out, guitar/bass modes, range knob, whish/resonance knob, plus it's true bypass. It's got some great reviews on Harmony Central, and holds the low end nicely. I only got this brand new a couple of weeks ago and have only used it in my bedroom with socks on, so it's absolutely mint! [b]SOLD[/b].

    Cliff Burton

    I'd go for the Morley Power Wah. Cliff used an old chrome Morley Tel-Ray Power Wah Boost, they kinda rare but pop up on eBay every now and then. After those old chrome ones they sounded crap, but the models since 2006 have a new inductor that sounds a lot closer to the original. I've been thinking of getting one but don't know if I want one of those or a Wilson Vintage Spec 12-Position Bass Q-Wah or a Teese RMC3!
  15. Al Cisneros is the bassist for Sleep/Om/Shrinebuilder... stoner/doom metal bands.

  17. I saw a band called Bitches at one of Steve's (Dangerboy) nights... bass and drums, with a MicroPOG and Russian Muff to fill out the space, sounded bitchin'!
  18. This guide is for a Jazz, should be useful: [url="http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showpost.php?p=7993927&postcount=534"]http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showpost.php...p;postcount=534[/url]

  20. Same here - the overdrive isn't very useable, the synth is fun but doesn't track fast enough, the octave is okay, the chorus , filter and compressor are great!
  21. Rock sound = Tech 21 VT Bass!
