    Hi all due to having to fund a new head I am selling my baby any one who knows me will tell you I have a soft spot for Zodiacs Anyway this one is in just about mint condition and it is in the best colour black and tort mmmmm this has a few tasty mods the most expensive being a set of Tone Monster Pups that I had imported from the states these alone set me back about a ton with import charges etc they are a fantastic pup they IMO are a more subtle SPB-3 I did a lot of tests and research with various Pups before buying them and I am glad I did there are a few reviews on Youtube about them and they all have good things to say The bass is also fully shielded in the control cavity with the correct copper tape (none of that cheap crap stuff) and the bass is also fitted with A Ki0gan loom the controls are volume blend and tone the bass has also just been set up (to my liking) and has just had a brand new set of Warwick 45-105 strings and new Schaller type locks.Please ignore my grubby finger prints in the pics as the bass will arrive nice and shiny to its new owner This bass is a serious bit of kit and has cost a lot more for me to buy and mod than I am asking but I would like a quick sale so £245 gets it to your door via tracked courier in a used but good Hardcase. UK mainland only Any questions please ask away as I always forget something Payment by bank transfer or PP gift please no Haggling price is firm thanks here are some nice tasty pics for you to enjoy

    [quote name='Michael J' timestamp='1422230670' post='2670232'] You build speed by practising more slowly. Seriously. It's the best and most efficient way to learn to play fast - by [i]not[/i] playing fast. Accuracy is the key, pay careful attention to even timing and clean sounding notes. The speed-up "just happens" without you necessarily doing anything to chase after it. [/quote] Good advice I would also add try a few different gauge picks and see which you like the most it is amazing how much difference a pick can make IMHO

    Oh that seems pretty good then

    Thanks Howie Well can't knock Andertons for service they got back to me within an hour and on a Sunday too so Excellent it looks like it will be the repair route or replace if it is shagged but I am still waiting to see if I can put the extra dosh and buy something else as I can see me being without my head for quite some time the only reason I do not really like repairs is due to a bad non related bass repair in the past. So we shall see what happens I did a bit of googling about the amp fault and it could well be the power board?

    Well I am not to happy right now I just turned on my 8 month old TC BH250 and it gave the loudest bang some nice blue sparks and a nice puff of black smoke not to mention it made me sh*t my pants so I am guessing the head is toast I just sent Andertons where I bought it an email about it as it is in warranty as less than a year old I really dont fancy having it repaired as my confidence has now gone in it do you think they will change it for a new one? or if not do you think they would let me put extra money towards a dearer amp head from them? grrrrr no bass playing for a while now

    [quote name='chriswareham' timestamp='1421936567' post='2666789'] I have to remove my wedding ring when playing as I catch it on the strings (particularly with round wounds). I keep on meaning to get a short silver chain so I can hang the ring around my neck when playing. [/quote] put a plaster over the ring and in answer to the question I dont find it gets in my way

    Well I spoke to a very nice lady from Status today and she is sending me a new string from a different batch so maybe the last batch was bad? anyway she told me to let her know if I am happy when the new string comes which I will do and if it is nice like the other 3 in my set I will order some more

    [quote name='barkin' timestamp='1421871988' post='2666117'] Either: Amp -> cab1 -> cab2 Or, if the amp has 2 outputs you could go Amp1 -> cab1 Amp2 -> cab2 Either way, the load presented to the amp is the same. [/quote] Thanks Ian so I can put the lead to the second cab in input or link and I wont fry anything then ?

    Hi guys I have a TC amp and I have always used one cab with it I now have another cab and am wondering how to connect my speakons would I be right in thinking that I go from amp to Input on the first cab and then do I put another speakon lead lead in to link on the first cab and then the one from link to the to input on the second cab? I cannot find anything in the instructions about linking the cabs sorry if it is a daft question but I have never used multiple cabs before Thanks in advance

I think it is the nuts and well priced compared to a lot of other dingers that are on sale and coming from Gary it is going to be in mint condition anyway bump GLWTS

    [quote name='Twincam' timestamp='1421237551' post='2658711'] A Jack Russell pissed through the grill onto the speaker. Speaker is a paper type. Will a damp cloth be alright im guessing piss and water isn't the best thing for paper speakers. I assume any solvent based things are also a no no. I am not amused!. [/quote] Made me giggle...sorry you could always sprinkle a little bit of talcum powder on the cone let it absorb so of the liquid if still wet then gently hoover the excess off drys it out and gets rid of the urine smell too
  24. Thunderbird
    Well not to my taste looks wise but damn it sounds good in Mr Doods video and it looks like it oozes quality GLWTS mate
