  1. Anyone use an EQ pedal in front of their R400. I had issues with booming notes on my last gig so just wondering if anyone else has and if an EQ pedal solved and if so, which one Soooo many questions 🙂
  2. Thanks, very useful..... I'll save and refer to if it happens again 🙂 I've seen the Genzler pedal and am pondering
  3. So played a pub gig on Friday, had problems with some notes booming. A when played at 5th fret was the worst, got round it by playing very softly or playing open A near the bridge. My amp is a Handbox 400 so there isn't an EQ on the amp. I was playing my Mike Lull M4V which is active, but playing in passive mode as the active mode wasn't working for some reason, even with new batteries. This particular pub is a bit tricky for sound as we had a few issues with the PA. Any thoughts anyone? Should I buy a graphic EQ for my board? Ive tried a Boss GB7 in the past and didn't like it as it seemed to act more like a pre-amp. The amp was going through 2 12 inch cabs, a Handbox and a DHC, so was operating at 4ohms. Not sure if that's a factor.
  4. Bargain! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/225601820420?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=JOXbWEkCRRW&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=_IZf9qi7SWa&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY It's not mine - I've had one tho and they knock a MiM Fender into the weeds someone please buy it before I do jus cos it's well cheap and I think I need another bass (I don't, I really don't)
  5. Spider cases 3u rack bag. Comes with a 1u 12v rack light (no psu) Bit of wear on one corner but all zips work without snags or kags Collection from Nottingham area or meet up if not too far. I'll be in High Wycombe 1st & 2nd July if that helps
  6. SOLD Gator 4u Rack case. All the catches work properly and there isn't masses of gig rash on the body or end caps I'm in Nottingham so can meet up if not too far for a few squid to cover petrol/sweets/mickey D's I could ship it but would have to find box/get rates etc. so budget £15-20
  7. Does the Ashdown sub octave pedal mirror the sound of the effect on the Ashdown amp? I'm looking for a pedal that does Trying a mate's Boss OC-3 and it ain't cutting it
  8. Bass Collection basses are fab. I've had both the power bass and the Bruce Thomas Profile bass. Excellent both of them, not sure why I sold either of them tbh....oh yes, I remember GAS!
  9. Ok thanks for the thought I wasn't planning to go to the bash, and the bass is now sold
  10. Bought a lovely Cort 5 string bass from David. Exactly as described, very well packed and arrived early. Thanks David Top Seller
  11. Our's isn't either. They must be the only two quiet lead guitarists in the known universe
  12. I'd keep it....frighten the life out of your lead guitarist at gigs 🤣
  13. Harley Benton MB-5 SB Deluxe Series £100 NOW SOLD Selling my Harley Benton 5-string Musicman clone One heck of a bass for 'night-out' money and I'm only moving it along as the string spacing is a tad too tight for me. Purchased a couple of years back from @WAYNESWORLD of this parish and only used at home I've used his pics - hope that's ok @WAYNESWORLD The pickup is split coil with 2 volume knobs which allows a bit of tonal variation. Sound and playability is great for such a low-cost bass. Collection from Nottingham or I can pack and ship but probably looking at £15-£20 or can meet up if it's not too far. £132 off Thomann and mine is like brand new - can't find a mark on it Here's the blurb 5-String Deluxe Series Body: Basswood Bolt-on neck: Maple Neck profile: D Fretboard: Maple Radius: 350 mm 21 Frets Scale: 864 mm Nut width: 45 mm Double action truss rod Headstock is same colour as the body Pickups: 1x Humbucker with coil split function 2x Volume- and 1x tone control Chrome hardware Vintage style machine heads Pressure diecast bridge Strings: .040 - .125 Colour: 3-Tone Sunburst
  14. I have the fretted version of this and it's immense considering it cost (used) not much more than a set of TI Flats.
  15. G'day You're welcome and as there's an Ashes series coming up which looks like it might be very competitive, it'll be good to get an Aussie perspective. Did someone mention cricket....I did but I think I got away with it 🏏
  16. I set everything flat and then bleed in some gain
  17. Restaurant crowds are the worst, they're not there for the music.
  18. Anyone tried one of these? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/255680482871 I'm thinking about one but am hesitating as I'll probably leave it on bypass and never use all the available tones Bit like me and pedals - buy one, try it, chuck it in the drawer and then flog it 6 months later
  19. Bass Collection Power Bass Now Sold. 1 hour....is that a record? In very good used condition. It's had an upgraded loom fitted with upgraded pots and a green Russian PIO capacitor. Sounds like a pbass with a bit of 'grand piano' edge. Includes the strap if you need it. No case but will be securely packed for shipping by courier at your cost or collect from Nottingham or reasonable distance meetup.
  20. Went to see Remi Harris at Peggy's Skylight in Nottingham last night. He's touring his Peter Green tribute show. He is an awesome guitarist and the band are pretty good too. If you like Peter Green/Blues music, I'd recommend catching this. https://www.manoftheworldmusic.com/
