Now that's a great idea for something new at the Bass Bash "Swap Shop Table".

PM'd and paid.

The pups are EY Parts Eric Custom T Bird ceramic humbuckers. I chose to use two 14k Pups both higher output units which offer a huge range of very diverse tones. The Harley Benton is great starting bass for pup up grades. Alder body, bound neck, nicely finished, all for £199.

I have a TC BAM built into my Faux Fender Imp combo which I am bringing along, so could easily be used for comparison.

Your photos sent me back in time to my first "proper" bass rig of 1968. I had the same Selmer T'n B 50 and matching Goliath cab with the rounded corners. It sounded absolutely superb to me. The T'n B amp is very collectable and appears in great condition for its age. Definitely worth having it repaired by an experienced tech and then selling on. Both the Goliath cabs could be of interest to 60's rock tribute bands. Fitting a modern neo 18ins driver and a tweak to the port length would be just right for getting back into giving great service to the right bassist. Congratulations on a fantastic find. (I still have a Selmer T'n B 50 V2 and I would love to take the rounded corner Goliath off you but the divorce costs would be too high 🤣)

Great variety of tones, well done, huge options going forward 😊. Enjoy the results of your labours. Make sure you top up the beer money pot of the Engineering department. 🍺🍺🍺

Android Tablet... software for setlist & notes
JohnDaBass replied to Stub Mandrel's topic in Accessories and Misc
For many years I was a long term user of Guitar Tapp Pro on Android. It's been all I needed when playing in 4 different bands, easy to share and simple to create and edit set lists. It's now been upgraded and replaced by Chords.wiki and is faster, more flexible and easy to use. As it's an App you can use it across your, phone, tablet or laptop and it automatically sync's up from the cloud. Sharing set lists between band members is breeze. Only downside is the annual subscription. -
+1 From the proceeds from the sale invest in a Celestion 10 speaker, either the ceramic one used in the BC110 or a lightweight BN-300X (8 or 4 Ohm)

WOW, that is going to have some deep and meaningful Attitude 😮

Best means of reducing acoustic bass feedback?
JohnDaBass replied to JohnDaBass's topic in Accessories and Misc
Finally sorted. Bought a 98 mm one from the source suggested by @ratman. Purchased the large one because having no experience of how rigid they were I thought that a slightly over size would provide a nice snug fit. When it arrived I was impressed how stiff it was and sadly didn't fit properly. Bought a second from the same supplier at 96 mm for a sound hole of 95 mm. Problem solved! Nice snug fit and seems to do the trick by preventing the feedback. I have also created a new patch on the Zoom B1FOUR with HPF at 50 hz. Happy Days. Thanks everyone for your advice. -
Here I have my as new Behringer X Air XR12 digital mixer in fitted rack case for sale. I purchased this to improve the setup time and FOH control of one of the cover bands I was in at the time. It hasn’t seen the light of day because the Guys in the band were rather “Ole School” and preferred to stick with their trusted Behringer PMP4000. So, it’s been to one rehearsal and mainly used for recording at home. It was fitted into a Spider shallow depth rack case which provides plenty of protection and neat rear storage for cables. These are around £230 new plus about £50 for the case. I am looking for £135 for both. I am in West Wales, but I am happy to ship at the buyer’s cost. Link https://www.behringer.com/product.html?modelCode=0605-AAB Behringer X AIR XR12 12-Channel Digital Mixer Overview The Behringer X AIR XR12 12-Channel Digital Mixer is ideal for both studio and live applications. Featuring 4 Midas-designed preamps, built-in WiFi, and USB stereo recording, it provides professional-grade sound and flexibility. The XR12 includes advanced features like auto-mixing, a 100-band RTA, and a robust FX engine, making it a powerful, portable mixing solution for any audio environment. Thanks for looking

I own the exact same bass, like yours all original and with the same case. Mine too has the same dowel on the rear of the headstock, I originally thought it was just my bass had the fix, mine too was bought brand new. But it would appear that a number of the first run had the drilling error and the dowel fix was used to correct the mistake. I wonder who "Walked the plank" for that factory blunder?? Fantastic bass, GLWTS sale of a reasonably priced unique piece of Fender history.

As I don't use an Octaver in any of my patches I have the HPF at the start of my patch chain. I only use 8 patches for the covers bands I'm in. 6 are for specific song types made up of compressor, drive and amp SIM. The 2 other patches are just "Always on" HPF one at 30hz and one at 40hz. To get as close as possible to emulate a Thumpinator I use 2 HPFs in series in each of the patch chains as I understand a single B1FOUR HPF has a 12db per octave slope , so by using 2 HPF in series the result is a 24db per octave slope. Seems to work for my needs by tightening up the low end. I know some of the amps I use (Fender Rumble 800 combo, Fender Rumble 800 HD + BF Super Compact, Mesa D800 Subway+ BF Super Compact, Peavey Mini max 500 + BC110) have some form of HPF built into their circuit designs but using an always on HPF before the amp simply provides a "belt & braces" approach to tighten up the low end. Having a 40hz & 30hz HPF patch makes it simple to toggle between the two to compensate for room and stage issues. It's probably worthwhile taking a look at the Zoom B1FOUR patches thread that @Al Krow started to see some of the ways players configure their B1FOURs.

I have used the HPF on the B 1 Four for many years. One patch set at 40hz and a second set at 30hz. All my patches included a HPF.
