  1. I put one of these on a loaded squire jazz body I got off eBay. I also added a MM pickup later as well as a Kiogon loom. necks really good. I had a lined fender neck on it originally but I wanted the challenge of going unlined and I didn’t need like the look of the fender fingerboard. https://www.dv247.com/en_GB/GBP/Goeldo-NJFLF-Fretless-Neck-for-4-String-Jazz-Bass-Rosewood-/art-GIT0009714-000
  2. Never made it far enough to find out what all the fuss was about. It’s only bass amps after all........🙂
  3. Wow. I was starting to get a bit Mark Bass curious but watching this has turned me right off🤣
  4. Sold an amp to Ilian. Easy transaction, great communication. Feel confident dealing with Ilian 👍
  5. Matt bought a pre amp from me. Great chap to deal with 👍
  6. The TRS (two stripe) plug on the WL-50 probably has the extra connection for charging up the transmitter. Have you tried a mono cable straight into an amp? I’d plug a lead in and touch the tip to see if it hums then plug it in the bass and see what happens.
  7. None of these sound loud enough to me and they’re all way over 30W- https://youtu.be/8elFSMDEy80
  8. I have an older one I’ve tweaked a lot with different pickups and pre-amps. Got it how I want it now with the Delano hybrid MM/J set up and 2 band eq. Does active MM, passive J or active J. It’s a bit on the heavy side but I love the neck on this. Can’t get on with p bass necks but this one is ace.v
  9. No I’m not! No more band, no need for this beauty of a bass so it’s back up for sale! Postage considered.
  10. Interesting trip to the physio. She reckons there’s nothing wrong with my hand, wrist, or arm and it’s all down to neck and shoulder issues. I need to lay off the bass playing for a bit until it’s improved but main thing seems to be desk set up at work. Hopefully she’s right and I’ve been putting 2 and 2 together and making 5 with my theories.
  11. Hi Gunnar, no plans to be up that way in the near future but if you wanted the cab and one or two other bits I could probably drive up to Cartgate services on the A303 if that’s any good?
  12. After a wasted year of non starter band projects and a bit of RSI in my right arm Ive decided to jack it in for a while so my live gear is up for grabs. Cab is collection only but happy to post the rest at buyers expense. 1) Vanderkley 210LNT 8ohm. Excellent cab in mint condition, super punchy transparent and LOUD. Often said this one cab would be all you need and I agree. I’ll probably regret selling this. I doubt I’ll ever own such a nice cab again. £500 2) QSC RMX850a power amp. Excellent quality amp if a little on the heavy side. Ill include a 2U carpet covered rack sleeve if sold separately from the pre amp. £150 3) TL Audio 5051 channel strip/preamp. Lovely valve based preamp with an excellent compressor and really versatile e.q.. The VU meter can be set to show compressor gain reduction so really handy for trimming the threshold if you want to run it as a limiter. I’ve not had this preamp long but have given all the pots and switches a lube. The eq is ace with selectable frequencies for high and low shelving filters and two narrow band mid range peaks. £250 4) 4U rack case. Several cracks/splits but holds the gear securely. Free to anyone buying the preamp if you want it. 5) Hartke HA3500 *SOLD PENDING* I can post more pictures if requested.
  13. It depends if you enjoy the thrill of the tone chase - justify accordingly
  14. If anyone fancies trying a rack set up you could pair this with my focusrite pre-amp/channelstrip and have a great sounding amp with great onboard compression for next to nothing!
  15. If I want to thicken up my pick sound without tweaking anything I do some light palm muting as I play.
  16. I’m no expert but I think I’d tackle it on this order- set relief according to fender specs set Bridge saddles to a nominal setting with some adjustment both ways check action shim pocket accordingly makes sense in my head to think of the end of the neck at the pocket as being a fixed point and then adjusting the relative positions of the nut and bridge accordingly.
  17. Looking for a balanced XLR for my rack set up. These any good? 😂 https://www.mcru.co.uk/product/the-ultimate-balalnced-xlr-cables/
  18. A couple of years ago I slipped on some rocks at the beach and fractured the middle knuckle of my right middle finger - my number one string plucker. Since then I’ve had a bit of arm/wrist pain and off after playing for any longer than 20 mins or so and developed a ganglion on my right wrist. In autumn last year I learnt Rio by Duran Duran and repetitive practice of this seemed to make things worse and ever since it’s been a bit more painful. It’s not helped by the CAD drawing I’m doing at work which means frequent mouse clicking (I’m getting a different mouse to help). short of going to see doctor/physio has anyone else experienced this and are there any exercises you can recommend to ease it?
  19. We’ll if the timing was better it would certainly be a possibility. The bands just disintegrated so no gigs or rehearsals on the horizon so better not spend on gear at the minute.
  20. What a shame. Curiosity led me to the manual on their website. Have you tried adjusting the trim pots?
