[quote name='thisnameistaken' post='759186' date='Feb 27 2010, 03:30 PM']I went for a first jam with a band last December that started out fairly positive but by the end of the night the guitarist was showing me what he wanted me to play and telling me what sort of bass sound he wanted, and despite telling me in emails that he was into a lot of the same music as me, all his sounds came out like country rock or Oasis. Drummer was ace, but looked as bored as I did. Wish I'd got the drummer's number but it would've looked conspicuous![/quote] That's why you take everyone's number...Then delete the ones you don't want afterwards

[quote name='pantherairsoft' post='757828' date='Feb 26 2010, 06:59 AM']Hey dude! The 212 is fantastic. I was dubious at first having never used 12's before but wow! I doubt I'd ever need a 410 again, it is responsive to as much top end as 10's, and to my ear has a smoother bottom. Plus is slightly smaller and lighter than 410! The Neo range tweeter is fantastic as well... Very impressed with the sound and the Neo range really are a million miles lighter than they look, and really well made. If you ever near Notts, come give it a blast! Shep[/quote] Wicked cheers for the info mate! Looks like an awesome sounding setup!! James

Fantastic rig mate. Great basses, nice pedal choice, and sweet amp! Can you tell me what the EBS Neo212 is like? I've been eyeing them up and wondering how good they are. Cheers Ps. Still got an empty space on that pedalboard

[quote name='Chopthebass' post='738493' date='Feb 7 2010, 09:28 PM']I see the Epifani UL410 is now only 699 GBP - that's much cheaper than what I paid a couple years back. Seemed to handle my low B fine, although one cab driven hard sounded better than my two stacked together![/quote] Where can this price be found?

[quote name='3V17C' post='756896' date='Feb 25 2010, 11:40 AM']yeah i'm a 'gearstalker' too.. and also I tend to judge a band on the quality/brand/level of gear they have before I've heard them play a note.... any one else guilty of this?! c'mon.. own up!! (my assumptions on said bands are normally correct though it must be said!!) peace c[/quote] I find it to be a very good way of working out the quality of the band also...Although sometimes I'm surprised, for better....and for worse occasionally

[quote name='arthurhenry' post='749711' date='Feb 18 2010, 02:15 PM']I don't actually see the colours when I play, or use them to understand music, though some might. It's just that the notes have an inherent colour, just like I know my car is blue, I know an E is yellow.[/quote] Either that or you've been playing too much Guitar Hero

Synesthesia really intrigues me! I do have certain visual analogies but nothing in the realms of what you describe!

[quote name='ThomBassmonkey' post='747941' date='Feb 17 2010, 01:56 AM']New amp, so photos came out today. [/quote] You guys that run just a single 2x10, are you going through the PA at your gigs too? I'd never have thought a single 2x10 would move enough air to be heard over a band!

Live I used to use a manual Wah, but have now opted for an envelope filter (in the form of a Subdecay Prometheus). Once I get a phaser I will be adding that into the mix

Put one cab on each side of the stage

[quote name='alexharvay' post='740158' date='Feb 9 2010, 05:07 PM']After a spot of buying and selling in December and January I now have a second smaller board. [/quote] That's probably the best PT Mini set up I've seen! Squash em up side by side as close as you can and I reckon you can get an octaver on there as well
