What's wrong with my Hartke amp?
Gunsfreddy2003 replied to Gunsfreddy2003's topic in Repairs and Technical
Hmm - I don't like the sound of that. Can anyone recommend a good repairer who might be able to take a look at it? -
What's wrong with my Hartke amp?
Gunsfreddy2003 replied to Gunsfreddy2003's topic in Repairs and Technical
Apologies - the video clip was not playing properly. Will have a look at some of the fuses tomorrow and see if I can see anything obvious. -
This amp was working fine until last Friday night, signal cut out, it was really hot and then started making this noise. In the video the volume is turned down to 0 and it still makes the noise. Any ideas anyone and someone who might be able to repair?[attachment=220896:IMG_1513.MOV]

Evening all, Does anyone have a decent tab or sheet music for this song? The web is severely lacking in any decent transcripts of this one. Thanks.

The Brand New Heavies in Cheltenham. !!!
Gunsfreddy2003 replied to bubinga5's topic in General Discussion
Yep, going to get a couple of tickets for the Heavies for sure - only downside is that it is at the town hall which is an awful venue sound wise. Didn't know that Tony was playing too - saw him last with the Sunburst Band at the Jazz Cafe a couple of years ago - great voice. Julian Crampton is playing bass with him at the moment so could be a good gig. [quote name='bubinga5' timestamp='1455921076' post='2983763'] At last The Brand New Heavies are playing at the Cheltenham Jazz Festival. May 1st bank holiday weekend. Its gonna be a funky one. Also Tony Momrelle from Incognito is playing in the day with his band.

Hartke or SWR making the EBS type sound?
Gunsfreddy2003 replied to Gunsfreddy2003's topic in Amps and Cabs
Ah that makes sense - they sound like EBS but not quite so "zingy". Did have a Reidmar before with an EBS 2x12 but it as just a bit too harsh for my tastes. But like the EBS stuff there must be something in the Hartke heads as the Mark Bass through SWR does not sound anything like it! -
I bought a Hartke amp a while ago and paired it up with two SWR Workingman 1 x 10" cabs. The sound from the rig is awesome especially when used wth my Jazz bass and has a Marcus Miller esque tone to it - plenty of high end sparkle which reminds me of the EBS tone. Keen to gig with this set up but the 140 watt rating of the head worries me as it does not give much headroom. So would like to know from others if Hartke are known for an EBS type zing in their sound or if it is coming from the cabs? I can then work out how I make a better rig for gigging with - any comments or experiences with these two brands would be welcome.

Atelier Z basses - where to buy in the UK?
Gunsfreddy2003 replied to Gunsfreddy2003's topic in Bass Guitars
Man they were so good on Saturday night! Problem is I know in my heart that he could come down here and play any of my basses and sound fantastic so getting an Atelier is probably just bad GAS and nothing else! [quote name='bubinga5' timestamp='1453935356' post='2964528'] When i saw your post and Atelier Z basses i knew Francis was in it. [/quote] -
Atelier Z basses - where to buy in the UK?
Gunsfreddy2003 replied to Gunsfreddy2003's topic in Bass Guitars
Cheers for the heads up - are they just a guitar shop? Never heard of U Box before!! Do you know why there are two prices, one in brackets and one not. [quote name='Doctor J' timestamp='1453928528' post='2964411'] Don't know of a dealer but there are usually a few second hand ones knocking around on the u-box. Ishibashi are great to deal with. Import it yourself, easy peasy. [url="http://www.ishibashi.co.jp/u_box/e/"]http://www.ishibashi.co.jp/u_box/e/[/url] And, yes, Jerry Barnes is responsible for Z gas here too [/quote] -
Evening all, Has sever GAS for an Atelier Z bass after watching Francis Hylton and Jerry Barnes use them regularly but can't seem to find anyone in the UK stocking them and no used ones for sale either! Anyone know of a dealer bringing them in at all? Cheers.

Useful pedal for beefing up your slap tone - very simple to use and very effective too. Not really using it at the moment so keen to let someone else get some benefit from it. Info and demo from the manufacturer (Creation Audio Labs) - [url="http://www.creationaudiolabs.com/#!funkulator/c1d3s"]http://www.creationa...unkulator/c1d3s[/url] Retailing at £150 new -[url="http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Creation_Funkulator.html"]http://www.bassdirec...Funkulator.html[/url]

Moving on my Diamond Bass Compressor as not getting the use that it deserves - bought brand new from Bass Gear about 18 months ago and has the 18v power supply with it too. Great compressor and has the benefit of the volume dial and eq tilit and frequency selection so that it can act as a tone/volume boost too. In as new condition with velcro on the back. Sorry but no trades on this one. Details from manufacturer [url="http://www.diamondpedals.com/products/bass-comp/"]http://www.diamondpe...ucts/bass-comp/[/url] Retailing at £195 [url="http://www.bassgear.co.uk/product/diamond-bass-compressor/"]http://www.bassgear....ass-compressor/[/url] new so this seems a fair price for 2nd hand.

Gunsfreddy2003 replied to blue's topic in General Discussion
Playing at a venue in Cirencester, lovely venue with stage, PA and lighting rig and a nice easy load in. Normal singer and drummer had other gigs so getting deps in which could be interesting! -
Just unpacked my new MM Sire bass (fantastic BTW), but I can't see anything in the packaging or online that explains exactly what all of the controls actually do! Anyone able to help?

How have you found the MuTron 3X? [quote name='dannybuoy' timestamp='1446159036' post='2897473'] I got an old big box Q-Tron recently. More Mutron like and less distorted than the Mini Q-Tron, but out of all of them I think the Mini Q is still my favourite. Will do some deciding this weekend to see if I want to hang on to the Mutron 3X or not! [/quote]
