    One of my Favourite basses ever is my 5 string Fortress MM. It is the perfect bass for Death metal. I am always looking out for another but being a lefty its hard.
  2. Dread Bass
    I approve of that mock up 100%. Interesting to see what your going to come up with for the design Jay.
  3. Dread Bass
    Bargain! if it was a lefty i would be tempted. have a bump on me.

    [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1340220228' post='1701386'] Fair enough. I have a lot of fretless basses - in my last band it was pretty much all I played and the ACG pre-amp was far more useful in getting me my sound than any pickup combination on its own. Other than that my favourite pickup for a fretless bass is the Lightwave optical system, but that's probably far too technical for you! [/quote] Having played a few of BRX's basses and having a bass with an ACG preamp; i can confirm this man knows what he is talking about 100%.

    i would love to here from 9 string players about techniques, possible songs and see more examples rather than "thats not a bass" "yes it is" I mean who cares what it is classified as.

    I think its a shame as the discussion has become about what a 9 string is rather than a discussion about 9 strings. which is what i think the OP was after. It is the same in pretty much all threads about ERBs and i think it puts people off posting who do play one. For example try and find a thread about an ERB where someone dosnt say the f/board is like an ironing board. Here is an interesting clip of a guy playing a basslab bass http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUc2lGRXm7Q&feature=fvwrel

    I think the difficulty with ERBs is that if you dont play anything fancy people say you dont need an ERB but if you do play anything fancy you get told you are a show off, between a rock and a hard place. I only use a 7, I have no use for a 9. I do not play solos or anything i use it in a band. Its tuned EBEADGC I have another one which is tuned to BEADGCF which i also enjoy messing with.

    My old band were recording a video about a month ago. I swung my bass trying to look cook and hit myself in the throat with the top horn. Had to stop the shoot while i got my breath back and wait for everyone else to stop pissing themselves.

    Bump and price lowered as it might have been a bit on the high side.

    I am having a clear out of gear i dont use. I havnt used any of my pedals in at least a year in a half so its time to move some on. Aria FL10 Flanger £60 + £5 P+P This is an old (Mid 80s?) flanger made in Japan. Controls are Rate Depth and Feedback. It also has a manual control to change the frequency. Also has a stereo out. It has two stages which means you can set it to two different speeds. Red Onion dual looper. £30 (was £35) + £5 P+P I had this looper made when i was using a lot of effects. It has two loops and a master bypass switch. It has a knob to blend the signal of one of the channels but it has a volume drop when you do this. Neither have boxes or manuals Any interest let me know
  12. Dread Bass
    Bump. Anyone interested?
  13. Dread Bass
    IThis is not getting used so i am going to move it on. its a SVP pro preamp from Ampeg. It is the preamp section of an Ampeg SVT 2 Pro. Condition. Some rack rash on the top, one of the ends of the sliders has broken but it is still adjustable with your finger and the previous owner has put a small mark next to each of his controls to mark his settings. Payment by cash or Paypal. Not keen on posting as its valve. Will deliver within a reasonable distance for petrol money. Any questions?

    I think Alan from ACG sells them. Check with him. I have Ultralights on both my ACGs and they are amazing.

    My 7 string - The fact that i custom ordered it, the asymmetrical neck, the flat fingerboard, the ramp, the finish, the powerful sound.

    Just got back. Had a great day. Loads of nice basses and some really good people. I might need to buy a Barefaced cab now though thanks to Patch.

    [quote name='Joshua Higginson' timestamp='1333267874' post='1599300'] Im standing right by my printer at the moment- I'd be happy to print a few spares out [/quote] Cheers Dude.
  22. Dread Bass

    My ex girlfriend bought me a vintage mm copy and the truss rod was not fitted right preventing adjustment. Make sure you check that.
