  2. [quote name='bartelby' timestamp='1325671352' post='1485787'] Ah, I take it you're looking for something that has both bass and guitar amp sims? [/quote] yep
  3. MOSFET's all the way
  4. [quote name='bartelby' timestamp='1325669286' post='1485760'] The new Zoom B3 is worth looking at. Due for release soon-ish. [url="http://www.zoom.co.jp/products/b3/features/"]http://www.zoom.co.j...ts/b3/features/[/url] [/quote] nice, but doesn't have anything for guitar.
  5. The only ones I can think off which are specifically for bass and guitar, are the Behringer bass v-amp, and the Pod M9 and12 boards - although they don't have amp sims. Are there any more?
  6. [quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1325603186' post='1484958'] 2. Although each string of the 5-string bass guitar covers 'only' two octaves, the range the instrument can actually play goes from its lowest B (B0) to its highest G (G4). How does that compare to the 'full' range offered by the piano?[/quote] The bass guitar is actually a transposing instrument (sounds one octave lower than written) so in concert pitch (A440hz) middle C is equal in pitch to the C played at the 17th fret on the G string of a standard 4 string bass.
  7. he usually makes the point that 90% of what he does, is holding down the bass in a band. But if I went to see a band featuring Billy Sheehan, I would be a tad disappointed if he didn't do a bass solo.
  8. with that level of knowledge of the products they sell, I'd be happy to buy from them
  9. [quote name='waynepunkdude' timestamp='1325380435' post='1482736'] Super generous. [/quote] +1 someone - goblin? - has a happy new year!
  10. [quote name='wombatboter' timestamp='1324811078' post='1477904'] Watched the double DVD recently and thought it was pretty good.. Still I thought the whole image thing which was displayed on the DVD-cover (baddest motherf*cker, etc..) didn't make any sense.. They try to give you the impression that he is the king of danger while he seems to be a really down to earth lad who seems to enjoy playing on the machines in a bar for hours (not really rock n roll to be honest) and collecting knives (I know other people with the same hobby) Sure there are drugs and booz and all that but imo they seem to make a lot more out of him than he himself normally does.. He's polite, has his views on life and seems to be a loving dad.. The image one has of him is apparantly a lot more rock n roll than he himself probably is.. [/quote] was quite shocked that he lives in rent controlled accommodation and doesn't even own his own house.
  11. [quote name='muttley' timestamp='1324668135' post='1476958'] Showing again on Friday Dec 30 2011 at11:30 pm. Thanks, MythTV . [/quote] this! just about to put the kettle on and settle down in front of BB4
  12. a bit of history... I had a PJB rig - The Dalek - but then I got a new car. Although the car was bigger, it was a saloon, so access to the boot was smaller and my PJB rig wouldn't fit. I bought the above set up as it nicely fitted in the boot. The combo is great on it's own for rehearsals and small gigs. It can handle 5 and 6 strings for rehearsals, but needs to the cab for gigging volumes. I last gigged it over 3 years ago, since then it's been sat in a bedroom.
  13. here's a shot with my old sub to provided some perspective TECH SOUNDSYSYEMS NT 2X10 special, originally made for Tom [i]'Squarepusher' [/i]Jenkinson (allegedly the smallest 2x10 ever made!) TVM 600 head in the combo upgraded on the treble to give an extra 6db of boost at 11khz, 600w RMS @ 2ohm. Combo runs at 4ohms. Cab = CT 2X12 fitted with Neo B+C drivers to give 1000 watts RMS @ 4ohms. Total 1900 watts on speakers. Even has a cool blue light strip!
  14. [quote name='bridge' timestamp='1324647571' post='1476633'] Hope these help [attachment=95741:DSC01549.JPG][attachment=95742:DSC01550.JPG] [/quote] cheers.
  15. post Christmas day, fancy something to spend your christmas money on bump
  16. i've gone for the M Audion option, hoping that getting to grips with pro tools won't be too hard. I am not a techie!
  17. i'm covered for free through my MU membership.
  18. hi, do you have any pics of the flying V?
  19. So as posted earlier these are just rebranded Squiers?
  20. Are they made in the same Factory as the Chinese Squiers?
  21. cheers for the replies! As always Basschat comes up trumps
  22. Are they uncomfortable, does the edge of the bridge plate dig in to your picking hand, and does the ridge affect picking if you want to pick over the pup? I'm guessing it's a case of adjusting technique to suit, but I'd be interested to hear from those who play them. ta
  23. Yep, looking forwards to this one
  24. [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1324369764' post='1473387'] I'd remind the bass player in my band to bring his unused M-Audio interface thingy to rehearsal tonight and see if I could maybe slip it into my gigbag when he wasn't looking. [/quote] what a splendid idea!
