ZenBasses

Hey Well with the addition of 3 Hercules wall hangers it would be as well to move my basses from my living room to the 'mans' room. I keep my basses in the living room as it stays at around 16-20 degrees even without the heating on. Th small bedroom we have has no radiator so I've been loathed the store them in there. However i am getting tetchy as there has been a few unwanted people hanging around the area and well the basses aren't that well hidden. I have 3 alarms..2 being my dogs but temptation and all. Anyway the room is small around 5f x 8ft. Im wanting a cheap to buy and run heater just to keep the room warm but not sub tropical I was thinking this would be an ideal solutions [url]http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B0045JI3IS/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?qid=1420627169&sr=8-2&pi=AC_SY200_QL40&dpPl=1&dpID=41SXr6pgqlL&ref=plSrch[/url] Anyone got the same issue.would love to plumb a new radiator in there but the cost is a bit too much at this point. Seems like a pointless post I know. Thanks Ben

Hey Just a quick one. The balanced output in my fafner 1 is broken. The clip that holds the cable in place was broken off some while ago by a careless band mate and this doesn't make a proper connection anymore. With a possible gig coming up I'd like to replace it. Can anyone advise as to which type of connector I would need? Many thanks Ben

A part of my musical inspiration has passed. It's a sad day...

Thanks for the comments I had a very good idea what I wanted and working together with Jon this time around has been purely about design and the look of the instrument I knew his necks were extremely comfy I know the circuits and the Emg pickups are just awesome. Even Jon admitted he is a massive fan of Emg and are every bit as good as the boutiques available. Jon's never done a 3+1 Config as far as he can remember with his own headstock design.. So another first My original Shuker Series 2 Elite, 7 years ago was also the first instrument he had the controls follow the curve of the body contours, he has used this many times since. All in all I am thoroughly smitten.

So here it is in all its glory [url]https://www.dropbox.com/sc/ix1a9koa15pxwsw/AACwrVHmfxM41_syLsLPi2waa[/url]

It's finally at home It's absolutely amazing I won't release sub standard pictures hehe It's too dark outside and photos on my trusty phone are not coming out so good even with all the lights on So here is a teaser shot of the headstock with a 3+1 Config ..... Oh and sounds the 'dogs'

T-Minus, not a lot of hours left Collection is tommorow afternoon.

Thanks for the comments Deposit was paid in October last year so it's been in reality a year from start to finish.. Which I am pleased with

Will you just take a look at that 98% complete with just 2 switches and the control cavity to fit Looks a million dollars All paid for with hopefully a collection time made for next week Another of Jon's finest creations

Bit of a pointless post but got excited when the invoice from Jon landed in my inbox last night Smiled at the price.. Also means we are not too far away at all.. Whoop Hopefully I can get down next Thursday

Well.. Basically I've used the equipment I've got to get round the problem with a an hour cutting down cables and making a new set of 'patch cables' I get the fact that bass is omnidirectional and thus gets louder as sound travels outwards but I try to be considerate with levels on the Marshall at about 4..it doesn't help that my GB IV is running 18v active.. I get a more 'usable' volume from the passive yam I have. I've made a couple of xlr leads Dug out the old mixing desk Made it fit Connected the balanced output from the fafner Fed in a 3.5mm stereo input Job done No money spent I am thinking that eventually I will get some decent cables and my money is more well spent on a decent set of cans...

Anyone had any experience?

Wow Thanks to everyone for the input. Unfortunately being a mid terrace always has the sound transfer problems I am really liking the look of the Phil Jones Bass buddy.. Looks like it ticks all the right boxes.. Might mean saving a little more and just dealing with the cans I have now. The hd-251s have received great reviews. It just a case now of finding some good hand gear.. It's not the kinda Gas I am use too as I am really a bass - lead - amp kinda player... Once again. Sorry to the neighbours

Some good recommendations.. Thank guys.. Though as I've just laid a new patio this summer I fear a impromptu upheaval might upset the other half.. Hehe

I've seen these before.. These can be used to plug directly into the guitar.. I am not sure when using the amp to tone shape how it would fair up. Also it have no input for the an external audio source. But as with vox it'll be a fantastic piece of kit..

So had a little run in with the neighbours regarding sound levels... How embarrassed was I Even though I was a little miffed as I am running a 30w Marshall practice amp combo . And it was 730pm..i do place the amp on the sofa on some cushions in order to deaden the sound. But anyway.. my bad... I could spend sometime trawling through reviews and the like. Basically I need to address this as I don't want to be upsetting the neighbours and I understand their view point. My EBS Fafner and 4x10 cab isn't exactly usable hence the practice amp. The Marshall has a line (headphone) out but it's woeful. I was considering using the balanced out put from my EBS into maybe a headphone amp. I also would require a decent(ish) set of cans to monitor though. So here is my question.. Using the EBS Fafner as the 'source' And within a budget of £150..(secondhand is fine). What headphone amp (if that's the correct piece of gear) and cans would people recommend. I usually play along with songs and stuff at home via my phone via Deezer or Google music so a input via 3.5mm jack / Bluetooth. I also have a rack compressor and Korg tuner that I'd like to add to the mix. I do have a 12 channel mixing desk but I'd rather have it not running through there as space in the man's room is limited and currently I don't have it setup. All for £150 Or any other solutions would be greatly appreciated Thanks peeps
