  1. [quote name='Lenny B' timestamp='1371588522' post='2115997'] Bravo [/quote] That looked sarcastic on its own but it is sincere :-)
  2. Bought a case of Ryan, brilliantly packed, promptly shipped, pleasure doing business
  3. I went, but from 94-97 - I guess it's changed a bit since then... Had fun though!
  4. Ha ha! In my band I switch between fretless 4 string (Active) and 8 string (Passive) - I use the 8 string with the EHX Freeze pedal to do some drones at the beginning of songs, so i can get that going, and then turn the volume down on that bass and switch. If only I'd seen this 2 days ago! I actually bought a £20 mini-4-channel mixer from Maplins on Tuesday, which does the job but not as well as this. Don't suppose you'd fancy a maplins mixer in p-x would you....?
  5. Can you have both channels on at once? So 2 basses playing through it simultaneously...?
  6. Making my Jazz Cafe debut tomorrow with Los Desterrados, having an album launch party It's pretty niche music, Jewish Sefardi (which means flamenco, middle eastern and north african based, but we do rock it up a little. Should be fun, clips and links here, do come if you fancy Len [color=#000000][font=Tahoma][size=2] [font=Calibri, sans-serif][size=2] The gig: [url="http://mamacolive.com/thejazzcafe/listings/upcoming-events/8523/los-desterrados-album-launch/"]http://mamacolive.com/thejazzcafe/listings/upcoming-events/8523/los-desterrados-album-launch/[/url][/size][/font][font=Calibri, sans-serif][size=2] The albums: [url="http://losdesterrados.com/shop.html"]http://losdesterrados.com/shop.html[/url] [/size][/font][font=Calibri, sans-serif][size=2] The band: [url="http://www.losdesterrados.com/"]www.losdesterrados.com[/url] / [url="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Los-Desterrados/169395749812277"]https://www.facebook.com/pages/Los-Desterrados/169395749812277[/url][/size][/font] [/size][/font][/color]
  7. [quote name='bertbass' timestamp='1366975189' post='2059678'] It's one of those things that you get used too with practice and I found that I had to change the way that I played certain songs. Great sound though, so it's worth it. [/quote] Agreed - I've been really enjoying mine. I don't use it on every song, but it really suits some of them. Just stick with it. I also have my E strings tuned down to D, and it sounds HUGE! Like this... (not actually me in the clip btw...)

  8. How could I forget this? This and the Chilis was really my gateway from the world of rock to the world of funk. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2nqZCSnN1U And this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzEJvHE_rEg Actually, just any live p-funk really.
  9. Yes. John Paul Jones for 1. He does both at the same time, his rock really swings and has a groove. And Flea, when he still grooved (I really don't enjoy the last couple of RHCP albums, but love BSSM). And not that anyone can back me up on this, but I think I can - I enjoy both and have always played both (but admittedly did have a few years when I rocked much less) - I'm just as happy playing Megadeth as James Brown
  10. [attachment=131875:photo-1.jpg] My latest; Boss Tuner => MXR Octave Deluxe => MXR El Grande Fuzz => 3 Leaf Proton => MXR Bass Compressor => EHX Small Stone Nano => EHX Freeze => MXR Carbon Copy => Sansamp BDDI Still playing around with the order of the Octave/Fuzz/Filter/Compressor - the compressor after those 3 helps tame the peaks of when I've got them all going, but it does build up a bit of noise... But plenty of versatility here, covers everything i need for my band and various random gigs. Thinking there may be just enough room for an EBS Chorus at some point (which would give me a flanger as well), but don't need to spend anymore for a while...
  11. My old big silver square Big Muff for sale - a bit scratched but works fine, sounds thunderous Photos available if you really want one. :-) Looking for £35+p&p or can meet up in Central London (West End / Camden)
  12. [quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1363887604' post='2019002'] I don't have Flood, but I think it's a sort of 'best of' compilation of stuff from the above three albums. [/quote] Great album, will have to dig that out now. Love this stuff
  13. Mark bought some pedals from me - he gave regular updates, prompt payment, good communications, great to deal with
  14. I play occasionally with his drummer, Martyn Kaine - great player, learned (and improved) so much by playing with him
  15. I pm'd on Monday (night), he posted Tuesday, arrived Wednesday - brilliant to deal with and buy from. Does not get any better!
  16. Thanks for all responses so far, will pass them on and let you know... Much appreciated, cheers
  17. A mate of mine from work's getting married in June (Herts area) and has asked me to help him find a band - loking for a mix of 60's rock 'n roll to indie pop - nothing too heavy but maybe a couple of ROCK! If anyone has any recommendations or links to your band, do please let me know Cheers
