    thanks for all the replies, i'm willing to go outboard too with something like the tonehammer or the sadowsky, but i'm getting a lot of conflicting opinions on 'what's best'.. i'm trying to bring as much sustained woody growl out of the corvette as possible, some people tell me to go active, others say get outboard gear - what route would you recommend in order to achieve this?

    i'm looking into the possibility of adding a preamp to my corvette std, does anyone have any recommendations / advice / words of warning about this? it's brand new territory for me so any advice is welcome.

    apologies to all involved, i just realised i made a mistake on the price here. i forgot to include the price for the speaker, so i will have to revise my prices a little.

    EQ pedals?

    project_c replied to project_c's topic in Effects

    I quite like the look of that boss programmable EQ actually, that's exactly the kind of thing I was talking about. Nice one.

    Just seeing if anyone would be interested in owning one of these, this one was apparently the first one of its' kind to be sold in the UK, I bought it brand new from Bassdirect only a few months ago. It's in absolutely mint condition, and comes in it's original box (with serial number printed on side), manual also included of course. It's a brilliant little amp, very clear and flat response, punchy lows and amazingly clear mids and highs, great for practice or for DI-ing and recording. My reason for selling - I'm going to be spending a lot of time in a larger studio as opposed to just at home so I'm going to look around for something bigger and a bit more powerful. Price - It costs £549 on Bassdirect which is what I paid for it. As it's practically brand new I'm looking for a fairly decent offer, I'm open to suggestions. If you're anywhere near London or Brighton, I'm happy to deliver it too. More info on the bassdirect site here: [url="http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Genz_Benz_Shuttle_3.0_8T_Combo.html"]http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_sp...0_8T_Combo.html[/url] *edit.. i was pricing this based just on the shuttle 3 unit as opposed to the whole combo, apologies for any earlier confusion.

    EQ pedals?

    project_c replied to project_c's topic in Effects

    thanks for the suggestions, we're only talking about a 30 second segment here and there so i doubt i'll get too bored, so the zoom might be overkill. the sansamp might be ok although anything i've ever heard made by sansamp sounded appaling so i'm a bit dubious about them. is the boss geb7 programmable? doesn't look like it would be but i could be wrong, i might just have to sacrifice the programmability and go for something simple like this instead, how much are you asking for it john?

    EQ pedals?

    project_c posted a topic in Effects

    i don't usually use fx at all on my bass but the band im working with occassionally use synth basslines, and for those parts i'd like to either cut all the lows for my bass and just have high-end presence, or go the other way, and play purely sub bass - the main thing is that i don't clash with the synth parts. i have no idea about eq pedals and need some advice about whats good and what's bad, ideally i'm looking for a pedal that adds a bit of character to the sound when it's in use and is versatile enough to be able to handle sub as well as high-end really well. something that has built in memory and presets would also be useful, so i dont have to fiddle every time i want to switch. i'm open to suggestions, any advice would be welcome. thanks!

    i just checked out the pentabuzz on your site, it has just about the most beautiful tone i think i've ever heard. did you record the audio samples through any fx / compression, or is that a simple straightforward dry recording?

    Alesis do some really good interfaces, i have an IO14 firewire audio interface - has 4 inputs, 2 of which are mic/line, 2 headphone outs and one main out. pro sound, zero hassle, cheap. i've been using one for over a year without any problems, bass plugs straight in, effortless and i think you'll be able to find one under £100 on ebay.

    no worries, thats what its there for.. post a link to the track when you've finished it, would be good to hear it!

  16. project_c

  17. project_c
    sure, i'll get some pics up in a sec.

    quick bump on this before the long trip to ebay...

    I'm selling my rbx, perfect if you're just starting out or just looking for a decent, solid Yamaha bass, I just bought a new bass so I won't be playing this one so much any more. I'm looking for £110 + postage, you're also welcome to come and see it and collect in person if you're anywhere near north London. Can post more pics if you need 'em.
  20. project_c
    bringing this back from the dead because i'm relocating and need to sell fairly soon, price reduced to £700.

    i have a couple of stories about that place, i was new to playing bass and didn't really know much, I went in there for new strings, because my fingers were getting blistered and I wanted something a bit gentler on my hands, as well as something which was less jangly and had a more rounded, full tone. having explained this I was told to buy rotosounds (which are by far the harshest, jangliest strings out there), with "if it's good enough for rock stars, it's good enough for you mate" thrown in as a comment. Another time I took my bass in for a set-up, and got it back in exactly the same condition, with the exception of a new battery. The action was blatantly too high, the intonation was all wrong, but they didn't touch it, the guy just said there was nothing much to fix. Again, I didn't know anything about how things should work back then, so I just accepted it, but looking back now it was pure bullsh!t.

    there is no way i deserve such a beautiful bass, but im keeping a very close eye on it on ebay. my budget is just below this, but i might be able to push it up a bit. let's see what happens.
