Site depends on ajax.googleapis.com - which is down
BigBeatNut replied to BigBeatNut's topic in Site News
This from StackOverFlow looks like it's relevant: http://superuser.com/questions/65007/files-from-ajax-googleapis-com-not-loading Looks like if you have the files from google in your cache, the fact the google site is down doesn't affect you. One of the differences with Chrome for me is that I recently cleared the cache. Whether this is the same problem that's affecting others, I don't know. -

Site depends on ajax.googleapis.com - which is down
BigBeatNut replied to BigBeatNut's topic in Site News
FWIW, for me the site [b]does not work at all[/b] in chrome, it's not just very slow, I get nothing at all, just an empty, white, page. I'm currently in on firefox. This is on WinXP. The ajax.googleapis.com may be a red herring, It IS down but it doesn't seem to stop firefox working. -
I've had two evenings where it's been impossible to get a response from basschat. Not just slow, actually impossible. The pages appear to hang when trying to load from ajax.googleapis.com, which is a site that's down ( I checked independently with http://www.isup.me/ajax.googleapis.com ). The only reason I'm here now is that, on my PC, I've routed requests to that server elsewhere, so the pages don't hang. Otherwise, I'd have no basschat. Is it just me suffering this problem ?

I'm sort of thinking of moving this one on. It's really not my thing anymore unfortunately. Haven't thought about a price yet, so this makes it a kind of 'feeler' post I guess. If I was more sure about selling it I'd have a price in mind and this would be in the classifieds. (Hope I'm not breaking forum rules here). I can bring it to the SE bass bash if anyone's interested. Eclipse Ltd, 5 string. Usual status electronics, vol, blend, bass, treble, bright switch.

Octaver pedal in 'micro' size? Does any exist?
BigBeatNut replied to 1976fenderhead's topic in Effects
Most recent thing I heard (10 days ago on HC) was that this and the comp had both been delayed. [quote] "Hi,i am sorry to tell you the mooer pedals"Pure Octave、Blue Comp " are not available at the moment,because the MOOER company recall all this two modes to make further revision and process improvement,they stop producing "Pure Octave、Blue Comp ", we just infomed in this morning" [/quote] -

[quote name='Al Heeley' timestamp='1342689467' post='1739211'] It's a great mini board, I love it [/quote] Thanks [quote name='Al Heeley' timestamp='1342689467' post='1739211'] Can you tell me about the Big Beautiful Bass pedal? Not come across one of those from SFX before. [/quote] Forgive me if I cut 'n' paste something I wrote elsewhere For me it's a great 'warm-up' pedal. The way I use it, it's at unity gain (9 o'clock so plenty more boost to be had), scoop engaged, and tone between about 7-10 o'clock . The tone works (to my ears) like a passive tone control between 7 and 12, and from 12 to 5 it adds treble progressively. I think (and Max might correct me here) that it's similar in effect to the tone control in a Big Muff. The scoop is (again I think) around 800-1000 Hz. Set like I have it, it's a very appropriate warm-up before a solid-state amp (Markbass CMD112P). It's possible there's a bit of FET (valve-like) colouration in there, not really sure, all I can say is it works great for me.

[quote name='BigBeatNut' timestamp='1340996162' post='1712745'] Despite the tempting looking gap I don't think I'll get an eighth pedal on there without something hanging over the edge [/quote] Okay, so I was wrong ... turns out a Lovepedal trem has just the right connector configuration to fit that gap.

First post updated for the arrival of the Shark These black basses are just a coincidence, honest ... all I'm after is fretless 5's, the ones that turn up happen to be black

[/quote] [quote name='73Jazz' timestamp='1341763985' post='1723734'] ..natural is so....boring [/quote] Have to disagree ... for me, I would have left it natural ...classy look.

[quote name='73Jazz' timestamp='1341737992' post='1723239'] As promised in another thread, concerning the search for the right colour. This is my 1973 YOB former stripped, now sonic blue P bass, with one of the most fantastic maple necks i have ever played (J.Torres) I was thinking about refinishing the bass over 1,5 years. Now i am totally overwhelmed and pretty sure that i did the right thing. Let me introduce her to you.. [/quote] Gorgeous colour on the neck I know I would have hesitated to re-fin that, but you have a great result. You have the before pics ?
