  1. Off to eBay!
  2. If you find one let me know, I'd like a try also 😄
  3. Matamp still available type bump!
  4. Are there any in the northwest?
  5. Right now I'm not a massive fan of p bass with flats, I'm think more a jazz or maybe a stingray kind of vibe. I just want I nice clean neutral sound with portability so maybe neo cabs. I was thinking littlemark 2/3 or maybe a GK head as they are quite reasonably priced second hand. I would like something close to flea's grit (at an absolute stretch) to a clean mellow sound which I don't think should be too hard to achieve with any of the small heads knocking about. Just a little unsure of cab choice as there are so many option now.
  6. Ok, that sound more logical, cheers. What are everyone's thoughts on 12's? I've never really considered them before, but they seem quite popular these days
  7. [quote name='Mr. Foxen' timestamp='1383417053' post='2264313'] Mixing a 4x10 and 1x15 gives an unpredictable result, so can't really make recommendations regarding it other than don't, and instead get a cab you do like the sound of, and add more until loud enough. [/quote] I have heard this before, but I struggle to understand it. I get the theory in that the two different size cones don't move/respond at same speeds, but if that so, why are there so many people using a 410+115 option? I am guessing if you were bi amped it wouldn't be a problem as you could eq to suit each cab?
  8. Hi all, I am in the process of selling my current rig (orange terror bass 1000 and matamp 610) as I am looking I change my sound and what I play. I am looking to get Into a jazz/funk/disco type band in the future so I'm insure of how much I am going to need amp wise so could use some help. Was thinking of a gallien Krueger 1001eb with a 410 and 115, but would a markbass little mark and similar cab arrange by be enough grunt?
  9. Terror bass sold pending the usual
  10. No love for my swollen pickle?
  11. I do remember it well, even though I was playing guitar at the time. It was a brand new ('94 I think) red squier p bass with a black scratch plate. Played ok from memory, and sounded ok through the white Roland bass cube 30 we had!
  12. [quote name='Jacqueslemac' timestamp='1383209421' post='2261463'] The trouble for me is that without a set of songs to work on, I lose my commitment to practice. [/quote] This is my problem also, it's hard to keep the work rate up knowing I won't be letting the side down by not learning stuff. I love playing, and have been working my ass off in bands for the last 18 months, I feel really flat and struggle to get excited about playing to be honest. Will survive this winter of discontent, working on my own playing and will emerge in the spring a better player.... At least that's the plan!
  13. I did think to buy it a drink first 😄
  14. [quote name='jezzaboy' timestamp='1383162108' post='2261097'] I`m in the same position myself. Fed up playing with muppets, I mean, other musicians. Think I`m going to take some time out and reflect. What I am going to reflect on, I haven`t a clue. [/quote] +10000000000000000 There must be something in the air, I'm out in the cold at the moment too. But seriously what is WRONG with other musicians??? Im going to hibernate for the winter, I'm trying to sell off some of my gear and by a new rig, change my sound and try again in a different scene. Flakes, the lot of them!
  15. Stop it Bagsie, all this bumping is giving me GAS!!
  16. Anyone know how to date an orange terror bass?? Pics now added!
  17. I think we spoke about this a little while ago Billy, I was going to sell it but withdrew it from sale. It's now up again obviously so let me know!
  18. Yes Mr Apple, I will get them loaded on tonight 😄
  19. Hi Geoff, Yes it comes with the padded cover and handle, and the original 240v lead and speakon cable. I'd be interested in a Gallien Krueger 1001rb or possibly gk cabs, or maybe a us musicman sub 5. I hope this helps! Ill check the date tonight
  20. Hi mate, good question! Ill see if I can date it tonight, it's never been a problem for me as I've not used the DI on it, and can't say the gain has been an issue either. Having a valve pre I would say this isn't hifi clear but it wasn't exceptionally growly at low gain settings if that makes sense.
  21. PRICE DROPPED TO £450 FOR QUICK SALE BARGAINOUS!!!!! Hey guys n gals, posting this now before I change my mind as this is a tough decision. Up for grabs is my Matamp 610 cab, the only reason in selling this is my current band has fallen apart and I think it might be time for a change in sound. This rig sounds awesome and is LOUD! But considering the size of the cab it is pretty portable (fits in the boot of mondeo with the back seats just unclipped and fit in my insignia boot also) The cab is a sealed true 8 ohm cab, rated at 2400w and will take pretty much whatever you want to throw at it. I was ising this with an orange terror bass 1000 so Needless to say, this rig has never been pushed hard, it keeps up with a bloody loud drummer and guitarist with the gain and master pots at about 9 with the eq flat, so ive never needed to drive it too hard. ill finish by saying my band split up due to the singer having chronic tinnitus... I'm looking for £550 NOW £450!!! for the cab, so if you are keen please let me know, pickup only obviously on the cab, I'm based in Wigan but would happy to cooperate (within reason) with a pickup for cost of diesel. http://m.flickr.com/#/photos/107141653@N07/10579326654/ http://m.flickr.com/#/photos/107141653@N07/10579257465/ Would be interested in possible trades of Gallien Krueger or Markbass heads or neo cabs. Price dropped to £450 for quick sale
  22. Hey guys, up for sale is this Way Huge Swollen Pickle MkII. I bought this as I thought needed a second fuzz pedal, as it turns out I don't so it's out the door! This has been on my pedal board since I bought it and is in as new condition with box and all the bits that came with it like the 2 little badges. This is a massive sounding fuzz pedal, and it will be missed, if money was no object I would keep it but I need to move some gear on at the moment to pay for other things.... GAS is a terrible thing! http://m.flickr.com/#/photos/107141653@N07/10579356634/ I'm after £85 for this bad boy, let me know!
  23. Small stone still available bump
  24. Please take this in the spirit it is intended, but this won't be the end of John. If the years of the hard rock n roll lifestyle couldn't see him off, this tough old bugger will send cancer packing! They make these British rockers from the old days out of stern stuff, to quote a line from the movie get him to the Greek "Ozzie Osborne will outlive Miley Cyrus"! Lets just hope it's true for Mr Mac too. I agree with everything mentioned before, I love fleetwood mac and John gives a text book example of what it means to be a bass player holding down the bottom end in a band, rock solid and tight on the drums. Sure there may well have been a fleetwood "insert bass players surname here" without John, but I doubt it could have been anything close what they have been. I think they are the greatest example of a pop/contemporary rock rhythm section, they are two halves of the same whole and made perfect for each other. Get well soon John, it's my dream to see fleetwood mac live!
