[quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1350502174' post='1839846'] ok.... this might be a really stupid question... but isn't your amp small enough you could just take it with you and swap it for the other amp- or if you can't just use it as a preamp? [/quote] not a bad shout that to be fair.

[quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1350501755' post='1839839'] can't fault me for trying it's only got one that says "compression" on it! If I were looking for a compression pedal a the trace elliot SMX pedal would be high on the list... [/quote] not at all

[quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1350499657' post='1839803'] compression pedal? (or, cheekily my bass pod has a pretty decent compressor on it...... even if you just used it for that and DI. Though if you were using someone else's amp you could plug it in thier effect return and use it as a pre amp..... oohh look I have one for sale ) though I'm sure there are other pedals - part of it will be the "sound" of the amp too. [/quote] yeh i now i need a comp pedal, but i dnt want one with loads of knobs on it! was hoping id be able to find something with similar presets. what the dyna comp like on bass? andy

im up for either idea bud, ill bring my gear either way, nothing compared to most but might interest someone? hopefully theres a few guys with some barefaced who wanna come to? andy

nice bass shep but the piece between the pups takes away from the body for me! but amazing bass hope its worth the wait dude andy

as you can see from my sig ive got an swr headlite. well this past week my metal band hhad its first gig and i had to use the venues backline, wasnt at all bad was a hartke xl 410 and a gk backline 600(i think?) problem is i realised how much the compressor in the headlite helps me get a more tight tone. so im wondering if theres a pedal version? or something close to it? hopefully nothing to in depth i mean the headlite is just a one knob comp so ideally be looking for something similar as im guessing the attack and realise on the headlite are preset? im mainly thinking if i have to use someone elses amp i can dial in a bit of comp. andy

[quote name='Rasta' timestamp='1350485359' post='1839536'] I could potentially be up for this too, i'm Plymouth based...would be great to share lifts etc. [/quote] id be up for sharing the driving? andy

hi guys im looking for good mastodon tabs. ive tried ultimate guitar and they have quite a few but the more i look for what i want they dnt seem to fit, im mainly looking for tabs from there latest album "the hunter" the main tab i want is black tongue. ive tried looking on youtube videos but everyone seems to be showing it played up the neck and some of the parts sound off, just wondering if you guys could point me in the right direction other wise it looks like ill have to spend ages working it out!! thanks for any help you can offer, really just wish that there was a tab book like there is for crack the skye andy

Im just over the bridge and be up for giving a lift if you put in some petrol?

Thats about 2 hrs from me, id be willing to come tho as long as the day was worth it? Ie the trip wasnt longer than the bash :-)

Its a bit far but if im game if we get a fair turnout

Take it that theres nothing doing?

smoke and burning normally mean output transformer! which could be pretty terminal but the best thing to do is to take it to orange as a tech would have to get parts in and also if orange do the work you'll get there warranty. andy

awesome heads! really nice sound i used on for a few gigs sharing gear thru my old 610hlf sounded really nice but i just cant gig something that heavy but as you've got a beast already in the vba then im almost certain this is lighter but dare i say theres probs a few more tones in the vba than the orange? andy

If you have a ampeg 810 then going with an ampeg amp seems like the obvious thing. The pro-6 is a nice amp aswell

Dude depending on the size of your gigs i would never get a 75w amp! Thats just gonna be a practice amp, and for 300-500 quid you'll get something very decent, theres a really nice trace 715x on here at the min. Always nice to be able to go louder than u need to be also will help the amp as your not pushing it to much. If you dnt need a big combo maybe look into a 112 combo? Andy

Basically i really like the look and idea of the big baby, the way it goes super low, as i drop tune, but has alot of mids in it aparently? Also projects really well. Need to try one out really before i decide for sure

I reckon its more ment towards sctive basses with hot pre amps.

I actually think that thats the master volume i think? Andy

Ok no that makes sense! Just had thought as i like the eq and comp in headlite if i run it into a power amp from the slave to do the same signal what size amp would be good? All depends if i can find a bigbaby to try?

oh ok now come on ill take that awful trace head of your hands, and ill do it free of charge! i know im just to nice! .... really nice amp btw i love orange heads! andy

as you can see from my sig im currently entertaining the idea of getting a barefaced cab once i find one, however i really like the eq and compressor on the headlite. but seeing as 400w isnt really enough to drive a big baby if i decide to get on ive got a few q's 1, does the headlite need a load to run safely? 2, the pre amp out says that its after the master volume, does that also mean the compressor? 3, if it is after the compressor can i put this into a power amp of say 600/700w thats not to heavy and drive the big baby using the eq i like from the swr? andy
