  1. I have never owned a BF cab so I am not going to spout on about something I know nothing about I think they look nice and I have heard them live and think they sound pretty good but in my honest opinion I do think they are very expensive but if people are buying them they must be worth the money
  2. yep these Vintage basses are fantastic they beat a Squier (excuse spelling) hands down IMO good luck with the sale
  3. [quote name='White Cloud' timestamp='1386783911' post='2304519'] Geezer Butler was one of my main formative influences on the bass. I regard him as one of the greatest rock players of all time...superb! [/quote] Enough said big +1
  4. Just bought a pedal from Darren he is a really good guy to deal with and let me know when the pedal would arrive with me and it arrived when promised super fast delivery, great communication and pedal in great condition, would happily deal with Darren again 10/10
  5. If I sell my G+L and this is still available I will most likely have it but I am amazed it is still here
  6. I Think Chris has a Deep impact on his board and a Digitech bass synth wah but that is about all I know
  7. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1386527470' post='2301095'] That's putting me right off to be honest. [/quote] Would an ACTOR be more up your street mate? lol
  8. [quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1386595228' post='2301875'] Thank you Mr. Thunderbird. After Saturdays meet up with the Status buyer (name saved to protect the innocent) this will be coming down. And I will be delighted as it is my current go to gig bass [/quote] Phew glad you can keep it mate nice one
  9. I did not really like the song but that style of music is not to my taste anyway I thought the video was done to a very high standard Good job mate
  10. Quote from SD [color=#000000][font=Helvetica, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif][size=3] [b]Functions of switches on old-style "Active EQ" bass pickups[/b] We stopped making the switch pickups ("Active EQ") in the mid-'90s. We replaced them with the Pro-Active? series. The little rocker switches on the Active EQ pickups change the sound. Switch #1 shifts the coil resonance. On a Jazz Bass? neck pickup and a P Bass? pickup, the resonance moves downward from 22 KHz to 6.4 KHz. On a Jazz Bass bridge pickup, it move downwards from 17 KHz to 4.9 KHz. The effect is to give a more focused sound with a harder attack. Switch #2 gives a broad band bass boost of 4 dB for the Jazz Bass neck and P Bass pickups, and 5 dB for the Jazz Bass bridge. The switches can be a very effective tool for changing the tonal "character" of your instrument. [/size][/font][/color]
  11. Had a trade lined up with Will, I sent my bass off to him but unfortunately it did not suit Will so he sent it back to me and refunded all my postage costs and expenses so we did not trade basses but person wise it was a smooth deal and that really cant be faulted so all is good here Would deal with Will again.
  12. Would love this oh why do I have too be poor? GLWTS matey
  13. [quote name='Prime_BASS' timestamp='1386578385' post='2301576'] Is this the squier ? Fender one is MIJ and has no maple neck option. [/quote] I Think it is the Fender Modern Player series they are made in China and have a maple option
  14. Hi mates now I am kinda not good at music software but is there anything that will let me play along to my music but drop the bass out so I can play bass along to the song? Cheers
  15. Come on some one buy Andys Keeley as he is a top geezer to deal with
  16. [quote name='xilddx' timestamp='1386456113' post='2300441'] Mr Bungle are peerless. Mike Patton is a musical wonder. [/quote] Is Mike Patton from Faith no more also? I am going to check a bit more of this Mr Bungle out form the small bit I heard on Youtube it seemed OK
  17. I bought a bass from G4M and it was as if a 2 year old had packed it me thinks this is why they have so much damaged stuff on ebay
  18. I would love this maybe Santa will get it for me lol
  19. [quote name='Highfox' timestamp='1386443087' post='2300266'] Copies, don't make up for the real thing [/quote] Why? are the copies good? lol
  20. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1386438364' post='2300172'] [size=4] Thanks guys, now I want one. [/quote]NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO think about what you are saying SLAP SLAP SLAP now come to your senses!!!!!!!
  21. If your that desperate buy a cheap Chinese copy and save your self 1100 bangers still just as good and it also sticks 2 fingers up at a certain person who must not be named.
  22. I think what gets me down with my playing is that I can honestly say I do not have any natural talent so what ever I achieve on my bass has come from lots of hard work and practice I think if I had some raw ability to start with I think i may be happy with my playing , sometimes I knock out a few tunes and think yeah who's the daddy lol but recently I think my playing has gone to pot since being unwell I think I have forgotten more than I know and sometimes I don't pick up my bass for days on end but I am really trying to "make" myself play a little every day even if it is messing about around the board
