    [quote name='josh3184' post='234534' date='Jul 7 2008, 09:47 PM']Phew, thank god someone pointed that out! Fixed! Much obliged good sir. As for everyone else deciding not to tell me? Shame on you people! :huh:[/quote]
    Haha well it makes all the difference because once again I find myself tempted by something I can't have now there's a photo there!! :)

    Someone will surely snap this up soon, I've never listened to one of these amps in isolation but I've gigged one a few times through my Hartke cab and I liked the results a lot.

    Just finished my latest 'pimp' project

    Well you've certainly done a number on it. I like the tango'd look of mine but the weathered look yours has come out with is very cool. I've not come across a higher-spec bass for the money so if it makes you want to keep it, so much the better.

    The question, though, is what on earth possessed you to undertake such a project in the first place? I can even dent the polyester finishes on most guitars, much less sand them off!!

    Chris bought a pedal from me at the Bass Bash on Sunday and let me play on his big Marshall valve amp too. Top bloke and clearly a bit of a gear enthusiast! :)

    Cheers fella.

    OK you were the guy who was playing my Ibanez? If so then thanks for making it sound so good and telling us some forum stories. :)

    Thank you! And welcome to the forum. There was a bit of a gathering of bass-player types in the area today, you should come along to the next one and teach us some metal (I'll teach you some ska by way of ... erm ... 'thank you').

    I'll warn you in advance too - avoid the marketplace forums or you'll end up buying tonnes of gear you didn't know you needed. I've not been here long and it's already happened three times.

    P'raps name badges next time ...both Avitar & real. Bit forced, but at the end of the day, blimmin' useful[/quote]
    Some people were wearing them but I think they were real names rather than online ones. I'm hopeless at remembering names anyway.

    Hello all, I had a good laugh this afternoon and watched some excellent playing on instruments ranging from the sublime to the ridiculous (and no, I won't be drawn further on that)!

    Just want to know who I met because I didn't really get many people's names ... I'm Nik, rotund with glasses and a tango'd orange Ibanez Doug Wimbish. The only names I caught were Chris Jobiebass and Dr Dave but I spoke to other people!! If you saw me there, help me make some connections between real people and online people!!

    And thanks again to Keith for organising, it was well put together so that it didn't feel totally weird turning up by myself!

    Marshall GV-2 Guv'nor overdrive/distortion pedal

    in Amps and Cabs For Sale

    Posted · Edited by noisedude

    Well Cheddatom contacted me and wants to buy an MXL 990 and an SE 2200 that I am going to sell, so I'm assuming they're going to him.

    Pedal-wise, probably a Marshall Regenerator and Edward the Compressor, maybe a Bluesbreaker (I went on a bit of a binge, but am now going minimalist on FX and have worked my way through selling most of my collection) and a cheap'n'cheerful GLX Chorus Boss clone. Maybe my Hartke VXL DI but not decided on that yet.

    I've also got a Sennheiser E845S dynamic mic, brand new and boxed that I haven't used and don't need. And a couple of Neutrik balanced patchbays. And some Event 20/20 studio monitors. And an old Korg MIDI sound module. And a Korean Squier Strat. And, if I get really desperate, a Boss ME-6, Zoom 505 and 504!!!

    I can see how I ended up skint, when I consider that this only represents a tiny, tiny fraction of my PA/guitar/recording gear collection. :)

    [b]SOLD[/b]

    [s]Not needed any more, this has never been gigged but has been on my pedal board so it's missing a couple of screws off the bottom (pictured). Being the genius I am, I lost the box and manual when I moved house last summer. So it's just the pedal. It works, obviously, sounds great and looks pretty cool too. It's just over a year old

    I'm looking for about £25 [b]**NOW ONLY £20**[/b], you can pick it up from me in Leeds (or we can meet nearby) or I can post it for a fiver. Save it from going on Ebay!!! :)

    Hamer XT Sunburst for CHEAP! SOLD SOLD SOLD

    in Accessories & Other Musically Related Items For Sale

    Posted · Edited by noisedude

    Right then chaps, I just read my credit card statement and it's time to make some tricky decisions. Oh dear.

    This is a Hamer XT-series Sunburst (sunburst is the name of the model, it's actually a natural finish with a niiiice flame top). You wouldn't easily be able to tell it from new, I can't find a scratch or ding to tell you about. It's never been gigged and comes from a smoke free home. I just use it as the electric I have out in the lounge when I teach guitar (acoustic beginners love to see a 'real' electric and this is a good-looking one!).

    It plays nicely, it's a Les Paul scale length and a Les Paul-type neck, and obviously LP-type construction so it feels and sounds like a Les Paul. It's easily as good as an Epiphone LP IMO for quite a bit less money.

    How much less money? Well the cheapest I've been able to find them new is £250 and this one is virtually as new. But I need to make a quick sale so I will accept [b][s]£160[/s][/b] [b][size=4]NOW £100!![/size][/b] . You are welcome to come and see it at my house in Leeds or I'll ship it for £15. No gig bag I'm afraid but it's well packed in a re-inforced packing box so I'm more than happy to post it to you.

    Here are some pics (all taken at the same time so the lighting problems are my terrible photography skills!) and the specs from the Hamer website. Any questions, get in touch. I check my email constantly during the day and can give you my mobile number too if it helps. I'm known in person to at least one person on this forum and have bought from a couple of people, plus my Ebay feedback is 100% positive over a period of five years so let's talk!! :)

    Reaper DAW 3.2

    [quote name='cheddatom' post='221155' date='Jun 18 2008, 09:52 AM']Well that's a blinding review. I doubt it has more routing capabilities on the mixer than cubase?

    Dood - the small footprint is cool. If I could actually afford to buy myself some usb memory I might do that instead of carrying my pc to and from the studio.[/quote]
    Miles more mate ... go look into it. It makes Cubase look like clunking bloatware for recording. Cubase has more extensive MIDI still but Reaper has made great strides to catch up.

    Look up a chap called Aaron Carey who goes under the username Pipelineaudio, he has worked with the likes of Megadeth, Sheryl Crow, Rick Rubin, Dokken etc ...he, along with several other pros, has scrapped his Pro Tools rig in favour of turning up at studios with Reaper and a handful of free plugins from Schwa on his flash disk.

    Reaper rules! It blows the paradigm of routing and channels ... every channel is a buss is a send is a return, everything is unlimited and flexible. Want to send a snare to 100 different channels and mix that to a hundred different busses? You can do that.

    Want to have an mp3 in track one and an ogg file in channel two, with a mix of wave and ogg samples on channel three? You can do that. And all at different sample rates, no conversion or importing needed.

    Ultra efficient, amazing sounding plugins, everything works how you want it to (rather than spending an age working out how to work how Cubase wants YOU to), excellent support community, well written user guide, frequent updates .... what more could you want?
