  1. [quote name='operative451' timestamp='1389614861' post='2336058'] So to mildly hijack this thread a bit - IED are looking to do our first 'proper' gigs - we both have mostly virtual kit and like it that way! If i were to turn up with my 'rig' as is: a bunch of pedals (including a sansamp copy) and a DI box, would this make FOH engineers happy or sad? [/quote] honestly they wnt mind, its a straight di to them andy
  2. My modulus has a relief rod, dnt its standard truss dnt see what the hell it'll with the neck a fb board carbon?
  3. recently got a 5 to open up some ideas in my metal band totally dif music i realise but my ideas behind it are based on wanting more notes and also a deeper sound on others. ie i tune lower than most on my 4 A-D-G-C and on the 5 i have it tuned for our drop c songs but C-D-G-C-F still getting used to the feel and not going for the wrong string but i like the feel of the five its just getting used to it. andy
  4. the ampeg 610hlf is an very nice cab, not the lightest however but thats not a concern it really is easy to move around. i used mine with a ampeg pro 6, markbass lm2 and aguilar db750. all sounded awesome yes the cab does colour, maybe a slight mid boost but has got nice lowest and if you need it a nice tweeter(i never used mine) never had any problems at all and i had to run it loud with the db750 several times no trouble was looking at getting a second but then band broke up. also secondhand these go for a steal! andy
  5. love the colour! andy
  6. be easier to just use something like a boss ls2 or just an aby just need a patch lead.
  7. [quote name='bobbytodd' timestamp='1389530181' post='2335087'] what tuners are you thinking of using?im thinking about a black gotoh bridge and hipshot b7 tuners [/quote] will probs be hipshot tuners as im gonna grab a detuner aswell, not sure on the bridge tbh the one it has is cool if i can get a like for like id be happy andy
  8. thought i should post up a few pics of it as ive started to change a few bits and that was a old pic from the previous owner [attachment=152125:photo 1 (1).JPG] [attachment=152126:photo 2 (1).JPG] had to do a bit of soldering to earth out the jack and pots as the original silver plate was earthing everything. next up save up from a black bridge and some tuners andy
  9. [quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1389527344' post='2335027'] You're right.... missed that. For valve amps you have to match the cab to the amp or you will risk damaging the biasing and/or valves. You need an 8 ohm cab on the end of the speaker lead if the amp is set to 8 ohm output. My last valve amp had 1 8 ohm outputs and 2 4 ohm outputs. I guess which way you hook up the cabs is dependent on how the outputs are configured. Which amp? Do you have the user manual? [/quote] what chris said! andy
  10. I do feel that if say you destroy to amps in one night there must be some form of user error, ie pushing the pre amp to hard etc
  11. might be worth checking the tubes are all seated properly any of the pots on the front crackle when you turn them? andy
  12. toneknob brought a darkglass harmonic booster of me, nice guy to deal with no fuss at all andy
  13. [quote name='owen' timestamp='1389395874' post='2333934'] Ugh! I have just read about yours and spent some time reading a 14 page thread on the VM P5 on TB. I am struggling to think of a reason not to buy one and get it re-finished in Nitro black and relic it. [/quote] honestly for the same look fender you are talking 1300 notes! snagged this for under 200! cant speak highly enough of it! and i couldnt care less what people think about the name on the headstock. if you can get to try one honestly the you'll be mighty impressed, im not sure what pu's the p has but i def think the duncan designed pickups are part of what makes this bass so worth the money. andy
  14. nice cab well outta my price range sadly andy
  15. i think i rem reading somewhere it helps the string to resonate only with it self into the body, as oppose to mixing with the other strings tbh i would only use one if it was on the bass, im happy with the badass bridge i have on my mody. andy
  16. if buying in a shop, id always take the bass that i played, as long as its like new then it doesnt really concern me that its been on display for a few months or longer. andy
  17. [quote name='chrismuzz' timestamp='1389288598' post='2332449'] As long as it's not the MXR Noise Clamp! It's such a bad gate that I replaced it with a Darkglass B3K [/quote] that is a bad gate! andy
  18. they really do look nice in white! totally agree that they can outplay some usa fenders andy
  19. [quote name='Geek99' timestamp='1389344604' post='2332994'] I like it - although it would be nice too in an unmolested state [/quote] indeed i get that some folks dnt like that is not naturally worn but i actually like the over the the over the top look of it! andy
  20. [quote name='njr911' timestamp='1389345460' post='2333006'] The fitting must play a very important role. If I'm going to spend that much I want to find some where good [/quote] even tho its done in boots or specsavers its a acs rep who actually does it so the quality will be the same, if you go with acs that is. andy
  21. it is a bit odd isnt it andy
  22. [url="http://www.nashguitars.com/Images/Guitars/bass/JB63CARr3pw.jpg"]http://www.nashguitars.com/Images/Guitars/bass/JB63CARr3pw.jpg[/url] thats is sexy as! im all for natural wear tho doing that on my mody, its now a nice yellow close up, not bad in nearly 6 yrs. andy

  24. my crappy unnamed 40w practice combo takes the low a on my squier with loads of od on so the ampeg should handle it no problem at all andy
