[quote name='steve-norris' post='71915' date='Oct 9 2007, 11:33 PM']I have to agree, awesome bit of kit, i almost sold mine but it's just too useful. It can do the cutting bass thing, can't remember how at the moment. It's it's just packed full of features, the user interface takes a bit of manual time but having had the cd version of the tascam its in a different league. I take mine to gigs, use the built in drum machine to jam along, record my self playing while pissed slip the sd card in my laptop and send it to my drummer ooops!.. The cab/amp simulation effects for bass are good enough for casual demos. The other way i use mine is plugged in to my amp either feeding the aux in with a tune/drum loop/metronome or using the DI out into the BR The list of features just goes on and on, tuner , metronome etc Really if you are prepared to RTFM its a no brainer[/quote] steve - are you talking about the Boss Br here?

apologies for hijacking your thread Si [quote name='Rich' post='55697' date='Sep 5 2007, 07:33 AM']Yeah... my Squier Jazz has a Fender decal on it, but I'm not selling it so it's not an issue. If it went up for sale, I'd remove the decal and probably get a humorous one instead. 'Blender Jizz Bass' or summat. [/quote] Rich - how did you go about replacing the decal? - I [i]may[/i] do that to my Squier VMJ Si, nice job so far - I'm considering some kind of project P with a jazz neck

and put some pics up when you've done it, the pup cover will look ace against all that black

that looks really nice, I've been trying to fend off increasing P gas for a while, this hasn't helped.

[quote name='steviebee' post='73176' date='Oct 12 2007, 09:06 AM']Yeah sure thing but it looks like you have enough to be going on with already![/quote] that's what the wife sez

that's a lovely bass, if you do decide to sell, can i have first dibs?

[quote name='sk8' post='72633' date='Oct 11 2007, 09:47 AM']the yamaha looks interesting[/quote] the effects sound really nice, the downside is that there is a slight gap when switching between different effects patches. Not an issue for me (so far) because I use a separate disto and filter/synth, but it is something to bear in mind. I've not really got into editing the patches yet, but you can connect it up to a pc to do it which makes life easier.

ishibashi sometimes have second hand ones in the u-box

I started out with a Behringer V-amp pro, but was never really happy with it. I sold it and got a shedload of single pedals, which all sounded nice, but realistically I was only using less than 10% of the time. I've ended up ditching the majority of singles and getting a Yamaha Bass MagicStomp, which gives me the best of both worlds.

[quote name='Beedster' post='72576' date='Oct 11 2007, 07:51 AM']USA Fenders are going for under £500 at the moment, so what the hell's going on here....? Chris [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Fender-Jazz-Bass-Replacement-Neck_W0QQitemZ270172989316QQihZ017QQcategoryZ42455QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Fender-Jazz-Bass-Rep...1QQcmdZViewItem[/url] In fact, I've just found the same neck new for £119.00.[/quote] people are bidding before they've done their homework, or they're stupid, or both

I think they look really nice, if the MM Bongo design team (ie BMW) designed a jazz, this could be it. I'd be interested to play/hear one

I think you should call his bluff and go round, whether he 'gets his hands on a camera' or not. Leyland is easy to get to from Manchester, and a deal is a deal. You could ask him how he would of reacted if someone bid £600 and then pulled out after the auction ended

[quote name='beerdragon' post='70350' date='Oct 6 2007, 04:16 PM']I'm starting to get a few butterflies at the the moment. we are playing at a local pub tonight and as well as friends and family i know few people from other bands who have a night off are coming plus workmates, i know the guys from other bands come to gigs to scrutanize and maybe criticise. i really should'nt care and i can only do what i can do. still got those nerves though, I'm using a Hartke 400watt head and this cab, so its not as if they wont hear me! [attachment=2660:4200_073...9c1967fe.jpg][/quote] They probably won't notice any subtle mistakes, what's obvious to you will probably slip past most people - and lets face it, a lot of non-musos don't know what a bass guitar is. Musos will be/have been in a similar position and most will be supportive, at least to your face. The thing I do is to accept I'll probably make a couple of mistakes but just enjoy myself anyway.

I think it's a great idea - it could be a really useful resource. I checked maybe because I have the technology, but time is an issue. I'd like to think I'd be able to contribute something tho'

I asked for pics a couple of days ago and received nothing </sarcasm>
