  1. I have a 1st Gen. (black plastic corners) Barefaced Compact in vgc, with cover (made by me ) for trade or sale. For trade I'm after: A Barefaced Midget T. Gotta be a T. or A Euphonic Audio M-Line 1x12 Wizzy would also do the trick, but I know these are rare... Or...any small, lightweight cab with a tweeter - reason being, I need something smaller than the Compact that goes higher than 4khz, 'cos I'm putting more than just my bass through the cab and will be lugging it on public transport a fair bit. Edit: price drop: £315 (collected from Greenwich, or could meet in London). NOW SOLD - thanks Dan!

  5. My Dingwall SJ5! It's black! It's maple! With a de-tuner on the B! Bazinga!
  6. [quote name='mcgraham' post='1024084' date='Nov 14 2010, 10:15 PM']I have something similar to that - made by Max at SFX sound. Thread on here about it [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=58228&hl=sfx%20monitor&st=20"]Click here![/url] It\s great and forms an integral part of my rig.[/quote] Ah-ha! Now why didn't I think of asking Max first? I've dealt with him before and his work is 1st class. Will drop him a line...
  7. [quote name='jonthebass' post='1023705' date='Nov 14 2010, 06:30 PM']The way it's done in my line of work would be like this: Mic/Guitar/Bass feeds plugged into a mic splitter unit. 1 set of the splits goes to FOH and another set will go to the Monitor mixer for your IEMs. You could then connect the monitor mixer to a headphone amp. Hope that helps in some way, Regards, Jon[/quote] Yes it does, thanks. Shame they're not available in one box! Do you have any suggestions for brands/models?
  8. I'm in an experimental/Gothic duo: guitar (miked amp), bass, 2 x vox and backing track (run from an iPod on stage) and we really need to go to in-ear monitoring due to generally bad monitors in most of the venues we play! We don't jump around (!) so wired IEMs will work fine. We could just split the iPod output and send the track to the DI/FOH and a 2 channel headphone amp of some kind (on stage and in between us). Obviously we'd only have the backing track in the IEMs, so we'd still need to rely on house monitors for vox etc... Not ideal. My question is: how can we get everything in our IEMs using a - fairly - simple setup? (Would the bass feed and guitar mic signal have to go into a mixer before going to the FOH? Is there a mixer out there that can send the bass feed, guitar mic signal and backing track to the FOH and give us separate IEM mixes? Am I dreaming? )
  9. If you have a 37">34" scale fanned fret - or indeed fretless - bass, maybe a Dingwall(!), why not stock up on strings?! 1 x Dingwall Voodoo Stainless Steel 5-string set (Regular Dingwall strings!) 1 x LaBella Nickel Strings (Designed for 37">34" fanned 5-string basses) PRICES REDUCED! [b]£38[/b] for both incl. UK postage or [b]£20[/b] each incl. UK postage (£35 at Bass Direct) Thanks!
  10. Got a "Groove Tubes Fat Finger Guitar Sustain Tool" - bass model - for sale. Sold one here a while back and just found another one (!), although this one is brass, not chrome... They say: "Increases sustain by adding physical mass to the headstock of the instrument. Works on electric and acoustic instruments. Installs in seconds without tools. Will not damage your instrument. Adds tone, sustain, and overall tone balance. Fatfinger for bass is 20% heavier than guitar model. Helps tune out dead spots. Guitar model is 3.2 ounces, bass model is 3.6 ounces. I say: I've used it on a Jazz bass and a Precision and it definitely helped with the dead spots on both and improves the overall sustain, so unlike some weird "improvements", this actually works. Of course, as with most things in life, results may vary... £18 incl. UK p&p (£31.99 from Mansons) Paypal, cheque or cash on collection (Greenwich) only Thanks
  11. [quote name='waynepunkdude' post='890946' date='Jul 9 2010, 11:26 PM']Not a fan but you can't mistake that kind of quality.[/quote] Fair do's... and Dingwalls can be a bit "Marmite", but once you've played one...
  12. [quote name='Al Heeley' post='889094' date='Jul 7 2010, 11:03 PM']gorgeous - how can you part with it?[/quote] Thanks everyone and TBH, I'm not sure I do want to part with it! Have added trades to the OP: Dingwalls only though...
  13. This is just a feeler right now, for my Dingwall ABII, which was a "show bass" for Winter NAMM 2008. Specs: Scale length: 37" - 34" Aguilar OBP-1 18volt electronics, (switchable passive/active) Body wood: Walnut Top wood: Bear Claw Quilted Maple with Bubinga contrast layer (aka the X-Top Package) Neck wood: 5-piece Bubinga High Gloss body finish Weight: 8lbs 12oz (3.97kg) Comes with a Levys-design Dingwall gigbag and a Hipshot Xtender on the B-string (I regularly de-tune it to an A...awesome!), full set of Dingwall tools. The battery cover on the back is signed by Michael Manring which you may consider to be good or bad... I could go one about the even string tension, monster sound, but... suffice to say, this is cracking bass and I'm teetering on the edge of selling/not selling... The pics don't do it justice Price: £2100, pref. collection from London[b] *SOLD* [/b] (The [b]only[/b] trades I might be interested in: another Dingwall - an SJ5 or Z1 Black&Maple...)

  17. I had a LMII with the same problem the 1st time I used the DI. Opened it up and found the connector for the DI's XLR had popped off (it was very obvious). Pushed it back on and it worked fine from then on. Am guessing it had worked loose in transit, or it had slipped through QC...
  18. [quote name='walbassist' post='708675' date='Jan 11 2010, 11:44 AM']I have one on order and should have it by the end of next week. I'm hoping it will be the perfect matchup for my EA cabs and allow me to ditch my very good, but butt ugly, Markbass LMK.[/quote] Just curious: you have a Doubler already, so why get a Micro too? I'm surprised not more people are getting Micros, but they are very revealing amps, ie you can hear every detail of your playing, including sloppy stuff etc. Maybe they are perceived as "double bass/acoustic bass amps", which I'd say is wrong...
  19. I have one of these - see my sig for full set-up - and it's so small and light (1kg), more akin to a DI box than an integrated amp. Tonally, I'd say it's clean with great midrange clarity and presence in the lowest frequencies - especially when dropping the low B to an A - a real full-bandwidth amp. Dead simple tone controls, nice lights (!) and it fits the pocket of my effects gig bag. (I often use public transport to get to gigs, so it's very easy to schlep around). It's plenty loud enough for my needs, but my "umph" my be different from yours!
