    I bought this new 11 months ago to replace my Line 6 studio 110 that died. I've only used it for home practice and it's been perfect for that. It's never been pushed anywhere close to its volume limit. It's small enough to hide behind the sofa and the tone is plenty good enough for home use. It doesn't sound thin or weedy. Stock pictures here: [url="http://www.soundunlimited.co.uk/products/eden__-_50w_combo_with_1_x_10inch_nemesis_speaker_-_e10"]http://www.soundunli...s_speaker_-_e10[/url] Spec and blurb: "The E10 features a wide range 10" Eden designed coaxial loudspeaker for great tone. It is housed in a strong light weight plywood enclosure. It contains a fully automatic AGC compression circuit on the input stage to help make every note sound well balanced. That is coupled to a smooth sounding old school passive 3 band tone control circuit. You can set the E10 up to sound sweet and clean or crank on plenty of crunch. A head phones out completes the package.[list] [*]Power: 50 Watts RMS @4Ohms [*]Speakers: 10" [*]Tweeter: Mechanical [*]Power Handling: 50W RMS [*]Freq. Response: 48hz - 13khz ±2dB [*]Impedance: 4Ohms [*]Dimensions: 17.5"H x 14.5 "W x 13 "D [*]Weight: 27 LBS" [/list] Because it's never been outside of the house, it's in virtually "as-new" condition with no marks, dings or dents anywhere.

    I'm very interested in one of these. Anybody played through one yet?

    Thanks to Dave Bass 5, it seems that the Fralins have one black, one white wire while the Laklands have one black wire, one red wire.

    Folks, I have my eye on a Lakland Skyline Bob Glaub, made in Korea. Is there a simple way you can tell whether it's fitted with Lindy Fralin pickups, please? Steve

    [quote name='TJAS92' timestamp='1350397069' post='1838243'] Sounds brilliant but couldn't help but feel the bass was slightly lost in the mix [/quote] Seriously!? Blimey.

    The guitarist in my band relics guitars and basses for a living. He's in Manchester. PM me if you want his contact details.

    Bump up. The covers band is self-destructing, so I'm [i]definitely[/i] looking for a new project now.

    Sorry - I meant Abm, not Dbm/C#m. We're hearing the same thing, I think. A couple more rock-bass thoughts: Your friend's track is pretty crowded as it is. It may well be that "less is more" when it comes to adding a bassline to it. Something simple based on the 1-4-5 triads with a few passing notes to link it all up could do the job nicely. I play in a noisy rock band with two guitarists. I have a Fender P but I don't use it because it's too thumpy to make itself heard when the guitarists are going for it. The Ibanez Blazer and the G&L L2000 cope better because they have a more middy sound naturally. So, as has already been said, you may well have to boost your mids to establish some bass presence if it all starts getting too busy and loud. Consider a pick too, for more attack. Be wary about trying to get yourself heard simply by turning your volume up - you'll start a volume-war with the guitarist(s).

    Thanks - I can open it now. Does it start off as a 1-4-5 blues progression in C#m? Standard 12-bar pattern fits for a while, then it seems to change.

    Can't open your .ipb file without faffing about trying to find a file converter online. Is there any way you could convert it to, say, an MP3 file?

    [quote name='pete.young' timestamp='1349516444' post='1827205'] Very nasty. I think next time I put something valuable up for sale on Basschat I'll put a watermark on the pictures, if I can figure out how to do it. [/quote] How about a copy of a daily paper in the picture?

    [quote name='MB1' timestamp='1349349529' post='1825020'] MB1. Whine Bar? A shop thats previously gone out of business that now has a tacky veranda and chairs outside! Serving overpriced warm bottled beer. (Perfect for those warm evenings in sunny Mancunia). [/quote] Hi Martin! Yep - that's the sort of thing! Something called "Spanky's", just opposite the train station, with a bin outside sponsored by McDonalds.

    [quote name='BassBunny' timestamp='1349348155' post='1824984'] Hi Steve, 1) I thought you were sorted! 2) Not many of those type of bands around are area as there aren't many wine bars anymore. Just joking on point 2. I think I know what you are after and I'll keep my ears open. [/quote] Hello mate, 1) Well, I'm looking for something that's a better fit with my natural likes to run alongside the rock covers band. 2) Exactly! There are loads of pub-rock bands but not many cool-vibe female-singer outfits. Thanks for keeping me in mind, Steve

    Folks, I'm looking for a covers band playing groove-based pop, soul, indie, funky stuff, preferably fronted by a female singer. Sort of a wine-bar vibe without being elevator music or too mushy. Don't really want loud, 2-guitar classic rock, or anything too blokey or testosterone-fuelled, thank you. I have loads of time available for practice, rehearsals and gigs. I'm mature and reliable, and I learn songs before rehearsals - yes! Open to all suggestions and ideas, Steve

    Is there a decimal place error in that price?
  21. solo4652
    Went for £125. More than I thought.

    [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1348993365' post='1820346'] I`ve no experience with that amp, but having used a fair few provided amps recently, I`ve found everything at 12 o`clock works well both for on-stage monitoring, and FOH. Not my usual sound, but invariably the amps have been too low-powered (50/100 watts) so this approach has been the most effective. [/quote] Yes - My first thought was "everything at 12 o'clock", providing there are no strange knobs and controls that have odd scaling properties. I don't want to get on stage, peer bemused at the head, choose some random settings and launch into the first song with an unworkable setup because I have no idea what I'm doing.

    Folks, Our next gig is a mini festival with supplied backline: "EBS TD600 head and Ampeg 4x10", with sound guy out front. Ideally, it's get on stage, plug in with minimal faffing and play, so as to maximise the 90 minute slot we have. I'm looking forward to using this quality rig. I've never seen an EBS TD600 head, let alone play through one. So, I'm looking for advice on a head setup for a neutral tone for use with a G&L L2000. I don't use effects at all and I don't tend to change amp settings once I start playing. So, what's a good plug-and-play setup for this head, please? Steve

    [quote name='pietruszka' timestamp='1348904871' post='1819574'] Brilliant! I'll be recording in the next couple of weeks, ill give that a shot. A good friend who plays cajon a lot has had good results from putting the mic inside, but if this gets better results! I'll post the recorded piece up when it's done. Dan [/quote] Yes please - it'll be interesting to hear how it turns out. I always think of this: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-L4aeowB_YE[/media] with BC's own jakebrown fella on bass.
