  1. It's the sadowsky VTC. Never heard of that Noll Mixpot, will look into it
  2. I've been using a custom Maruszczyk for my wedding band gig for a few years - 5 string, P/MM config with ability to turn the MM into single coil/series/parallel. I've never been happy with the P sound - it's a Delano MVC5 AL. Doesn't sound like a P to me. So i've been trying out various basses./ Recently got a Sadowsky metro express which had been upgraded with the VTC and noiseless pickups. THe P pickup sounds great, PJ is fantastic for slap but I cant get a decent bridge pickup sound for the songs that need more of a stringray vibe. I've tried various degrees of blend and solod and boosting the gain but just doesnt do it for me. I really notice it on "Dont stop believing" where I'd normally have my MM in series and solo'd with a bit of a mid poke. So...are there any high output 5 string jazz pickups I could drop in to the bridge position?
  3. Bullet proof classic preamp. No issues. Have the original box. Price includes uk postage
  4. Needing to be ruthless with my collection. I bought this already modded with and 18v EMG circuit. It plays and sounds great. only issue is music stand fell into it and scarred it. There’s a 1 inch scratch that goes through the paint on the front of the body lower edge. Price includes uk delivery in hard case. Happy to deliver most of Scotland. I would trade for stringray 4
  5. I'm fed up of the acrylic ones eventually cracking. Seems to be hard to find someone making metal ones.

  9. Outstanding bass, great condition. Sounds the same as my 2025x Comes with the Yamaha gig bag.
  10. Rackmount autotune. Barely used. Price includes uk delivery. I’m not sure where I’ve put the box

  15. https://www.skiddle.com/whats-on/Paisley/The-Bungalow-Bar/The-Boyz-Thin-Lizzy-tribute-at-The-Bunglow-Paisley/36674262/
  16. Hi all, If you like a bit of Lizzy and are in the area, please consider coming to support us. We've been working hard with no promoter trying to build up a following but its an uphill struggle despite as being not bad and putting on a decent show! This is a live recording of us a few months back. Bass is a Fender Precision in dark night finish, rotosound flats 50-110 through a Tech 21 SH1 Steve Harris preamp. Link to tickets in the comments. It's £15 on the door. (Pricey, I know, but the venue is £250 to hire and diesel for the van is £50). The Bungalow is a great venue to play in with a great atmosphere.
  17. Just to say we're playing in The Tan Hill Inn tomorrow - our first gig in England (We're Dundee based)> We've got 2 hours of Thin Lizzy.
  18. Here's us playing Opium Trail at McChuills in Glasgow the other week. Bass is through a sansamp Steve Harris SH1, pretty much with the Phil Lynott settings. Bass is a Fender American Precision II in Dark night finish, stock apart from a steve harris mirror scratchplate. Rotosound RS77 flatwounds 50-110. Recorded live (bad hayfever that day, frog in my throat which seriously affected my singing). We're playing at the Blue Lamp in Aberdeen next week.. 8pm start. 15 quid on the door but you can get advance tickets for a few quid cheaper via skiddle.
  19. Looking for some technical advice. Recently purchased a second hand Orange TB500 bass combo - the isobaric 2x12 one. Sounded fine at home. Took it to a gig and hooked a PJB C4 up to it as well (set to 4ohms on back of orange) During the first song, it developed weird noises - digital sounding clipping noises at considerable volume. Unhooked the PJB cab and put back to 8ohms. Same problem Switched to my newly acquired backup amp - a TC electronic BQ500. I'd never used this before. This was better but still sounded weird. DIdnt sound right through the C4 on its own or using the orange 2x12 as a cab. Wasnt sure if the speakers were damaged by the weird noise that came through. Low notes were disappearing. Set up the rig yesterday and had a good play at gig volume for half an hour through the orange and the TC and both cabs - sounds fine to me. Speakers sound fine. Both amps sound fine. Very odd. I think perhaps the problems started when the venue dimmed the lights. It was the function room of a golf club. My amp was plugged into different plugs to the PA and I wonder if these were on the dimmer circuit? Could the problems I experience be due to a power source issue?
  20. Bargain price for this outstanding cab. On wheels. Few knocks to wood but sounds fantastic. 8 ohm. Would deliver for diesel cost in scotland, possibly north england/boarders.
  21. Cracking 4x10, great condition. No issues. Happy to travel for diesel money..
