  1. [quote name='lownote12' timestamp='1412079925' post='2565392'] Do the Dunlops comes with matching screws? [/quote] Sorry, no screws with these.
  2. [quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1411835953' post='2563198'] Lukather is so underated... [/quote] I know quite a few guitarists that rate him highly, me for one. Seen Toto four times and SL solo, always fabulous. His stuff on Thriller is benchmark and must be some of the most listened to guitar playing ever. I think the only area where Luke is underrated is as a Shane Ritchie lookalike
  3. I recorded our rehearsal this week with my recently acquired R16 (£133 on eBay) and it went well. Mics on snare and kick, bass DI from MXR M80, singer with second mic because we don't have a splitter, guitar through DI box. And the stereo pair recording the room. The guitar DI failed because it's broken so there's none of that in the mix other than what was being picked up from the room. Next time we'll have a mic splitter and the guitar will work. I enhanced the recordings and did a bit of a mix before sharing on SoundCloud, this convinced the guys in the band that it's worth the extra set up time to get better recordings. I was able to EQ and compress the drums, add a model to the bass, sort the vocals and get the levels right. Previously we used the stereo pair on a very old Zoom H4 but this is the way forward. Interestingly if you pan the stereo track back and forth, you can hear the difference between the right and left mics because of the distance between them (12" or so) whereas you don't get this with the H4 because the mics are arranged more closely.
  4. Another great Basschat deal. Fellow Pearl Jam and valve amp fan, what's not to love?!

    Another great Basschat deal. Martin's a top bloke as nine pages of feedback testify.
  6. I need some near field studio monitors for general mixing of rock band originals recordings and general playback. I've been looking at Studiospares gear but wanted to get some input from my fellow BCers first These? http://www.studiospares.com/studio-monitors/studiospares-sn10a-active-monitors-pair/invt/249210 These? http://www.studiospares.com/studio-monitors/studiospares-aktiv8-pair-of-8-active-monitors/invt/248930 Or http://www.studiospares.com/studio-monitors/studiospares-aktiv8-pair-of-8-active-monitors/invt/248930 These? http://www.studiospares.com/studio-monitors/krk-rokit-rp8-g3-x2-+monitor-pads-bundle/invt/390231 Budget £300-400 for active speakers.
  7. For my needs I use flats on a P and play with a pick and stainless round wounds with my fingers on my BB. Both are just right for me.

    Another great deal that goes to show that Basschatters are the best people to buy from and sell to. Thanks for making it so easy.
  9. I have a set of used Rotosound flatwounds that have loads of life left in them. I've had them ages and they haven't been on a bass in a few years. I am almost certain that they are the Jazz Bass 77 strings. The wraps are a bit tatty but this shouldn't show much when they're on. £8 posted in UK Bank transfer or PayPal Gift please.

  10. These are good http://lehle.com/EN/Lehle-P-Split-II
  11. [quote name='woodyratm' timestamp='1411213888' post='2557552'] If my memory is right you can use both channels at once with a Y cable or ABY box. I remember it gave a lovely sound [/quote] Best way to use it.
  12. Apologies to those who missed out. Response to these was overwhelming but they're on their way to new homes now.
  13. When you start playing through it, turn the graphic EQ off and get to understand the mid/treble/bass controls first and what the push/pull settings do. Then when you're happy you've got your head around that section and its California quirkiness have a go at the graphic. I tend not to use the graphic and run the knobs at Treble 3 (not 3 O'Clock), Bass 3, Mid 10. Master never goes above 5 (unless you want dirt).
  14. [quote name='JamesTun' timestamp='1411165599' post='2557280'] Finally got it today. Pretty heavy in its flight case. Haven't played it yet. What Head to Cab cable does this use? I bought a regular one and it doesn't fit. See picture (Far left). [/quote] You need a speaker jack into one of the jack sockets (say 4 ohm) on the back and a speakon or speaker jack on the other end into the cab. The balanced output on the far left is the DI out to a mixing desk, there's no power in that, well not enough to drive a cab anyway. Make sure you use speaker cable not instrument cable.
  15. [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1411156576' post='2557180'] I`m sure many will ask dimensions/weight/ohms on this one - must admit I`d like to know as well. [/quote] Thanks for the heads up. Edits made. Exact dimensions H=30" W=21" D=15"
  16. It's not about the width at the neck, it's more about the circumference. The BB2024 is quite deep and is as much of a handful as my Valenti which is 44mm wide but the circumference is the same and consequently the string spacing is a bit different.
  17. Hi folks I have a Kent Armstrong J Bass bridge pickup for sale. This is the JVB1 model and it's like an overwound vintage. Very nice pickup and very very similar in sound to an overwound Fralin or the Wizard '74s. I also have a really decent generic neck pickup to pair with it that will be included, it's nice and hot and growly. £35 posted the pair.
  18. Hi folks I have a Kent Armstrong J Bass bridge pickup for sale. This is the JVB1 model and it's like an overwound vintage. Very nice pickup and very very similar in sound to an overwound Fralin or the Wizard '74s. I also have a really decent generic neck pickup to pair with it that will be included, it's nice and hot and growly and came out of a Jack & Danny's Jazz. £25 + postage for the pair, which is half price for the KA with the other one free!
  19. I have one Markbass Bass keeper in excellent condition that has hardly been used. £10 posted. That's UK postage except highlands/islands.
  20. Hi folks, I have a black Matamp 2x12 for sale. It has the salt/pepper cloth cover and Matamp logos. This has Eminence 12" Delta Pro drivers (£90 each) in it that are not yet run in and have only about 3 hours playing on them. These are serious high end drivers and can handle huge power from big power amps or any of the monster all valve amps that some of us love so much. Cab now rated at 800w. [IMG]http://i1221.photobucket.com/albums/dd462/Stoker1/imagejpg2_zps89476e04.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1221.photobucket.com/albums/dd462/Stoker1/imagejpg3_zpsd4ff7565.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1221.photobucket.com/albums/dd462/Stoker1/imagejpg1_zps45deb39b.jpg[/IMG] The secs of the drivers can be found [url="http://www.eminence.com/pdf/Delta_Pro_12A.pdf"]here[/url]. This sealed cab has awesome power handling capability and has a classic tone to it, all in a relatively compact size. Build quality is absolutely superb and it comes with a Roqsolid custom made cover (£50). So there we have it, bomb-proof Matamp marine ply build, as good as new top of the range drivers, fitted padded cover. Serious quality piece of kit and it's British except for the drivers which are US made Photos tomorrow. It's 4 ohm and is switchable to 16 ohm. It's about 30 kg. Collection from Gloucester or Cheltenham preferred but I can meet up at a reasonable distance away. I [b]might [/b]be interested in a trade for a bass - 4-string traditional-style like US MM Sub, Korean ATK, Peavey T-40, Something Japanese etc. depends on what it is and whimsical I feel at the time.
