  1. I'm looking for the best way to mount my T. rex fuel tank jr underneath my shiny new pedaltrain nano plus. Im guessing people on here would have done it. What's the best way to go? Velcro, cable ties, do I need to remove the feet on the psu? Increase the foot height on pedal board? any advice would be greatly appreciated. thanks
  2. I'm 38 and I don't actively look for new music too much. However, every now and then I seem to stumble across a band I really like, the last one being king gizzard and the lizard wizard - who fortunately enough are rather prolific when it comes to making albums. i did use Spotify for a while, and the suggested track feature is pretty good. But overall I think it makes music feel a bit 'throwaway'
  3. Yeah, you are probably right - 'buy cheap, buy twice' an all that! No resale value most of the time either! I am pretty tempted now by the valeton
  4. Thanks for the link. I'd seen the valeton and just skipped past it because.. well, for no good reason really. After a bit of research this does look good, although it doesn't do octave up. It's a bite more expensive than the Valeton but it is analogue. at £60 it's not too far way from the Ehx octave multiplexer Decisions!
  5. Hi chaps, im looking for a pedal to thicken up my sound when the guitarist is soloing. I usually stick to the top of the neck and was thinking it might be nice to have just a touch of the higher octave. I am on a budget though! ive come across the ammoon octa pedal, it looks ok in this video anybody had experience with this pedal or this brand in general. Any other recommendations for pedals for around the same amount (£40) would be most welcome thanks in advance!
  6. Really hard to find any reviews. Anybody using these bad boys - are they better than the ag-4j-60 & 70. Cheers Alex
  7. Cheers guys, Skidder unfortunately the sd pickups do not ship to U.K. Grangur - do you mean a pedal or a new circuit in the.bass? Bertbass - the import duties are listed at time of purchase, bit of a pain, but the vouchers have to be spent on the us site
  8. Pleasure to deal with
  9. I have 2001 Mexican Jazz Bass & I'm looking to upgrade. Unfortunately I cant fund a new bass purchase. I'm looking at other ways to improve the sound. I'm thinking pickups. I have some Amazon vouchers that only work at the .com site & not .co.uk - which means whatever I buy will have to be shipped from U.S - So pickups are nice and inexpensive to ship but I am fairly limited to what I can get. I was hoping if someone could advise on the following at give an opinion as to whether they will improve the sound. I like the look of the Aguillar AG 4J-60, but I'm basing that on.... well, nothing actually. It would be great if someone in the know could give me their opinion - I play in a Rock band.

  10. Cheers guys!
  11. Hi guys, I have just bought a Hartke ha5500 rated 550w @ 4ohms (my ashdown mag c210 just wasn't loud enough!). Anyway I have a 250w@8ohm Ashdown mag extension caninet and for the short term I may use this with hartke till I get a decent cab. From what I have read, am I right in saying that because the speaker is 8ohm the wattage to the speaker will be less (closer to the 250w speaker rating). With regard to buying a new cab, I will probably only buy & use 1 - should I ideally get a 550w or above at 4ohm? Cheers
  12. Well, I had a feeling I was doing something wrong. I was using the pod cos i could get a bit more volume. That shouldn't be a problem now cos I just won a hartke ha5500 on eBay - now to find a decent cab to pair it with...
  13. Hi All, So... a bit about myself. My names Alex and I play in a band called 'the simpletone'. I currently have a Fender Jazz bass (mexican) and an Ashdown evo2 Mag c210 amp. I also have a line 6 pod xt. Recently I have been experimenting using my Ashdown amp as a power amp and my pod as pre amp. I have joined the site because I always have little questions about the way I set up my gear and no one to answer them. So this forum should be good for me. Cheers Alex
