  1. EDITED - the Greek already posted the vid
  2. She wasn't too bad in the Tom Tom Club either
  3. [quote name='skankdelvar' timestamp='1487015242' post='3236292'] How strange that you should mention Nausea. For there is a strikingly prophetic passage in Sartre's 1938 existentialist novel La Nausée which bears upon this very topic. Antoine is sitting in the park contemplating things (as is his wont): [/quote] I think i'll have google Translate arrested
  4. [quote name='spectoremg' timestamp='1487009321' post='3236236'] In that case there are more 'great' bass players around than I thought. Keep trying to justify her greatness ad nauseum people... [/quote] There's one thing here thats ad nauseaum and its not Tina Weymouth
  5. [quote name='bonzodog' timestamp='1486933647' post='3235731'] Nonetheless she became a great bass player and musician [/quote] Quite agree dog.
  6. Trying to be too clever with his unwitty description, or he overpriced it. Probably both
  7. [quote name='AndyTravis' timestamp='1486665780' post='3233721'] Hahaha. He's either a liar or a gullible idiot. [/quote] Well, either Warwick ignored him, or told him he was thick as a whale omelette, or he never contacted them. Each of those make him a liar, whichever was true
  8. He lists the standard J and P pups I've only ever used P and J neos . Spookily, the neo magnet pups are not listed on his website. Damn good pickups though
  9. I reckon the its either the Acoustic 408 or 406 ( 4x15 and 2x15 ) Cant really tell which Weymouth is using though. Vid of guy with 4x15 408 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXTadSDsHx4
  10. [quote name='bartelby' timestamp='1486838050' post='3234941'] The amp is an Acoustic Corp. one, isn't it? [/quote] More research revealed its possibly the Acoustic 370 or similar Perhaps the cab is Acoustic too ...2x15 ? http://www.terapeak.com/worth/vintage-acoustic-370-bass-amplifier-head-sold-as-is/302026722072/
  11. [quote name='Hobbayne' timestamp='1486840430' post='3234965'] Didnt she marry the drummer? [/quote] Yup, Chris Frantz. Tina and Chris also went on to form The Tom Tom Club
  12. [quote name='Jean-Luc Pickguard' timestamp='1486839609' post='3234957'] The pickups were definitely added - mustangs always had the small rounded split pickup until the prawn-shop one came out with the big chrome telebass humbucker a few years ago. [/quote] Thanks for the confirm - just as i thought
  13. [quote name='bartelby' timestamp='1486838050' post='3234941'] The amp is an Acoustic Corp. one, isn't it? [/quote] No idea Bartleby
  14. That sounds right .. I read somewhere though, that hers is modified. I couldnt find a mustang with a jazz -ish pup at the neck + square P pup at the bridge. Most of the early Mustangs seem to have tiny rounded end P pups and just the one pup
  15. This is the Heads on The Old Grey Whistel Test ..as if you didnt know But what a tone. Tina tone ... whats the bass and the rig ? Funny looking Precisiony thing ? Funny looking cab too.....and too fuzzy to see amp name [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzIuZ-mrIL0[/media]
  16. I think thats right about the Delano - you can even see the pevious pickup screw hole and they use Delanos in other basses Some peanut head has stuck a silly Mighty Mite in place of the original I quite like some of the builds though ..the Corto, Fusion and Sparrow [url="http://www.birdsongguitars.com/birdsong-guitars"]http://www.birdsongg...irdsong-guitars[/url]
  17. Remove strings and frets and i could finally iron my shirts
  18. [quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1486817785' post='3234748'] ...and here's my contribution to the thread. This one drives me MENKLE. [/quote] Please use words that exist in the Ox dick
  19. [quote name='PaulWarning' timestamp='1486808188' post='3234647'] wouldn't have said that, they're very good combos it's just the weight of them, I started with a combo but now have 2 TE heads, one is a series six and the other a GP12 SMX which I prefer, so I'd look out for one of those, God knows what it will weigh though Edit, apparently they're 104 pounds, hope your back is in good nick [url="https://www.talkbass.com/threads/fs-ft-trace-elliot-gp12smx-410-combo-kc-local-only.953381/"]https://www.talkbass...al-only.953381/[/url] [/quote] Yup, when i said weight wasn't an issue, i didnt think the 410 would be over 100lbs I could think about Ashdowns as an alternative .... would still want a 4x10 though
  20. [quote name='Highfox' timestamp='1486805630' post='3234619'] I had a GP1210 series 6 combo in the 80's and 90's, so yes the 12 was out there. [/quote] Good stuff !
  21. I dont really want separates. I already have 2 Markbass Cabs and a Carvin head, but i like to keep them packed away for gigs / rehearsals. So the combo would be for impromptu stuff, which would save me lugging separates around. I know everyone and their granny has probably made better combos. but i still particularly fancy a TE, its just that i dont know what was available ( GP7 GP11 GP12 etc )
  22. I've just sold my Ampeg, so now i'm pondering on a TE 4x10 combo, despite the horrendous weight I've stumbled upon pix of an early model that has plain wood cabinet, no vinyl or carpet. I think i will avoid that one So what does that leave ... GP11 and GP12 4 x10 combos ? Were there even combos in both GP 11 and GP 12 guises ? Was there a GP 7 4x10 combo ? I'm fairly ignorant about the originals, and i dont like the style or the price of the Peavey era gear, so it has to be the older stuff really Assuming there's a 4x10 in GP7, 11, 12 styles, which would be the better to go for ?
  23. [quote name='mikel' timestamp='1486725052' post='3234090'] We still speak lots the original language and pronunciations. Geordie is not just an accent its a ancient language. [/quote] We still speak [b]much of[/b] the original language and pronunciations. Geordie is not just an accent , [b]< comma [/b]its [b]an [/b]ancient language.
