Hi all

I'm considering replacing the pups in my MIA P bass with something a little 'fatter'.... There seems to be a fair bit of choice, including the Wizard ones reviewed in the reviews section.

I'm looking for a kind of vintage sound (think Duck-like!), lots of bottom (oo-er), and not too bright. Oh, and I'm also completely useless with a soldering iron, so would appreciate a recommendation of where to get 'em fitted too, in the Leamington / Banbury / Warwick area!

Cheers all

Mark.

Just sent you a PM mate.

Hi all

Looking to move on my Bass Pod XT. It's boxed, in excellent nick, and comes with all the cables, manuals etc.

£130 or will swap for something else music related (possibly even one of those strange 6 string geeetar thingys). Actually, I'll swap it for anything gadget like that you may have lying around!

Anyone got anything gathering dust?

Mark.

[quote name='ngombe' post='23758' date='Jun 26 2007, 09:26 PM']I can help you there... I'm sure you don't need that old Jazz anymore [/quote]

Hey Joe (good name for a song that), how are you getting on with the Jazz? Love the Sub - I'll scoot over probably next weekend and drop some cash off if you're around mate?

Mark.

No worries mate - anytime! The missus is always nagging about having too many basses anyway.....

Current faves are: -

Son of a Preacher Man - Dustie Springfield
Nite Klub - Specials
The Real Me - The Who
Mr Clean - The Jam (Foxton is the reason I first picked up a bass, aged 13!)
Welcome to Paradise - Greenday
Groove is in the Heart - Dee-Lite
Millionaire Waltz - Queen (verrrry cool bassline!)

And about a million others, all of which have escaped me at the moment!

Mark.

Well, if you're in need of a bass for the next 10 days or so, I'm not a million miles from you (j.12 M40) - I'm sure I can help you out with the lend of a P bass or SUB or something similar.

Mark.

Cool - thanks.

I'll keep an eye on the website.

Any news on the sound clips mate?

Top bloke - bought a Tascam Bass Trainer from Steve, and he even delivered it to my door with a bag full of batteries for it!

I bought a real nice USA P-Bass from Si, and he went out of his way to ensure that everything went smoothly with the sale. Top bloke.

If you're ever down near the Midlands, I'll have the cab off you in a second. I've got a 7210SMC, and it's a great amp.

Excellent - I'd love to hear some sound clips. I've pretty much settled on the VT1 Purist, but would like to hear a few samples first.

Cheers

Hi all

I've been checking out the bass effects that Dave Hall is selling, and wondered if anyone here has any opinions on them? Basically, I'm looking for the classic Bruce Foxton / John Entwistle type overdriven sound, and it looks as though the purist would suit me.

I've read the review posted here, but just wanted a couple of opinions. If anyone has any sound clips, that'd be even better.

Cheers

Mark.

brycebites - how do you find the Dave Hall pedals? Just been browsing their website and I'm quite tempted by one. Are they any good?

Cheers

Mark.
