An excellent and very efficient deal on an amp head. Another basschat winner. Despatch, delivery and comms all top notch. Very happy indeed :-)

I've ordered a custom built 6x10 to match and sit under my MJW Taranis. New cab isn't from MJW (or Matamp) but I like to keep things Brit if possible. Just wait and see...

I got a WM clone made for me by this chap http://www.madebymike.co.uk/index.shtml Very good it is too. £60 I think.

I have an MXR Bass Chorus, it sounds just right to me ad also has flanger functions.

Chad rocks.

Yesterday I recorded a guitar amp/cab with two mics, an SM57 and also a large diaphragm condenser, the SC400 T-bone from Thomann. http://www.thomann.de/gb/the_tbone_sc400_grossmembranmikro.htm The SC400 is what made the final cut; it's warmer, picks up more low end and has a more organic sound.

The Tokai in the FS sale is probably a better instrument at ⅓ of that "discounted" price. I know which one I'd have.

I haven't been there for since 2010 as I'm still very happy with what the basses I bought at the time however my buying experiences and correspondence with Mark were always excellent. People do react differently to different people and I liked the no nonsense opinion. We disagreed on the sound of big valve amps and that I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between a big valve monster and Class D lightweight and that's great, it's normal, healthy debate, it's not sales BS. If I ever buy another high end instrument I'd definitely check out .

The postage is Effin expensive.

Both good. The pickups on the 1024 are absolutely fantastic and although they are available as a part from Yamaha, they are expensive. They're both very good value and both punch seriously above their weights.

Great basses. Used to have one and have managed to replicate it's sound in my Bitsa Yamaha BBingRay.

[quote name='lefrash' timestamp='1435420218' post='2808636'] If you want cheap, easy and less faffing about, I highly recommend the zoom r16. I'vew had 2 in my time. Only limitation is that it does 8 tracks (although you can get two and connect them giving you 16 tracks). Great sounding, really easy to use. you can mix on the unit or you can export to a DAW and play about until your heart is content. Got phantom power in two inputs. Less than 200 quid, robust, easy to use. No need to rely on a laptop. In fact... I want another one! haha [/quote] They are very very good. I used mine to track a new song this week.

I use a Zoom H2n for recording writing sessions most of the time. This is an example https://soundcloud.com/belowtheghost/funky-meterstyle-thing Another simple way I do it is to run a large condenser microphone into my Zoom R16 and just place the mic in the room near the drums like this https://soundcloud.com/belowtheghost/death-of-robert-j-180515-1 A little sprinkle of compression and EQ afterwards and it's good to go.
