  1. So all this hot weather the last few days has messed with my setup on my Cort C4H and now the E (drop D) will not stop rattling, be it open or fretted. any where on the neck. there are a few spots on other strings but the E it is every single fret. I've tried having the action super high, super low and everything in between and the same with neck relief, i've tried adding another shim to the neck and taking away the one that was there in the first place and i've also tried shimming the nut. but to no avail (at least with settings that leave the bass playable) just super persistent fret buzz. the frets are all level too (been at it with a notched straight edge and a fret rocker) so it's not that. I'm just so confused and frustrated and GRRRRRR any ideas please?!?
  2. Hey, Got a Strat in need of some love, it's got a light vintage tinted polyurethane gloss neck with some dings where it's been in and out of the neck pocket. I'm trying to find a small pot of tinted touchup lacquer to tidy it up but i'm having realy trouble finding anything even remotely close to what I want. and i really dont want to have to strip the the whole neck and spray the whole thing. any help is appreciated Jaz
  3. [attachment=173216:IMG_1959.JPG] [attachment=173215:IMG_1951.JPG] [attachment=173214:IMG_1949.JPG] These were bought for a build I was working on and have since given up on after being offered my friends Ric 4001. These pickups are supposed to be amazing, though I can't vouch for that having never installed them Postage included in the price The AG 4, 5, and 6J-HC split-coil pickups give you noiseless Jazz Bass tone that works for all playing styles. With traditional single-coil pickups, bassists are plagued by hum when the neck and bridge pickups are at different volume levels. While other hum-canceling pickups tackle the noise, you are left with thinner lows, a harsher midrange and a lack of dynamics. The Aguilar hum-canceling pickups feature a split-coil design that allows you to get any pickup level combination without 60-cycle hum - all while retaining the natural, organic tone of your bass. Now you can experience the deep, resonant low-end of the neck pickup or solo the bridge pickup for that sought-after midrange cut without annoying hum! Wound in Aguilar’s NYC factory, the HC pickups are wound to have the big, dynamic tone that Aguilar pickups are known for.

  5. more specifically, a kevlar driver to match the one in the other monitor i have contacted m-audio too and am waiting to hear back from them
  6. Hey guys, the woofer in one of my M-Audio BX8a monitors has just died, looking for a good replacement that won't cost me a bomb as they're not massively expensive monitors in the first place. Thanks in advance Jaz

    afraid not, selling to fund a custom build that's in the works, sorry Jaz

    SOLD

    This one actually came with EMG 40J's in, they were horribly thin and beyond buzzy. These pups remind me very much of my old Stingray but with a bit less bite, really great pickups, would definitely recommend checking them out.

  10. Personally I D.I through my amp head (GK MB fusion) and then use LePou LeCab2 with Red Wire Impulses as a cab sim. every mic and speaker option under the sun with that setup another good alternative would be getting a Tech21 SansAmp second hand?
  11. Check out Tom at Santoro Audio www.santoroaudio.co.uk
  12. As above, through a cab or cab sim. Personally I use a clean D.I with no fuzz mixed with a fuzz tone through a cab sim (as I do almost all my recording at home and I like my neighbours ) When it comes do cab sims i use the LePou LeCab2 with Red Wire impulses responses. they have LOADS of cabs/speaker configurations to choose from with every mic under the sun and at every conceivable distance and angle from the speaker. A lot of the time I actually prefer the sound I get from them than physically micing a cab myself, both guitar and bass. I really think having a clean D.I is a must though, mainly as it allows you to pile on as much gnarly, dirty fuzz as you want but still have super clear note definition, and obviously you can blend it in and out to your taste. I've also got good results from having a small amount of D.I fuzz in the mix as well as it picks up more of the top frequencies that get lost from micing/cab sims. Hope that helps!
  13. Carvin v3m or Hughes & Kettner Tubemeister36 both tiny amps and masively loud with more gain than you could ever need
  14. Get an epiphone and then swap out the pups for some tonerider rocksongs. cannot go wrong
  15. not super useful as this is a bass thread but i use a carvin v3m and the tonal possibilities, reliability and size of the thing are second to none. really well constructed and just so versatile!
  16. I miss my stingray so much. easily the best sounding and playing bass i've owned. shame i needed a 5 string (i'm not a fan of the looks of the ray 5)
