If this is any help ...

I think i may be a loser here, since Pete the Axe has not posted since October ! The Arai SB's seem to be a bit different, so it appears in my searches on the net. Would you take a detailed pic of your circuit, mr Flat ?

Ah, thanks. Good to know, because whenever i've bought them in the past, i've always gone for the regulated kind Is there any advantage at all in regulated supplies for pedals ?

Cheers flatty Eric. Yeah i remember Pete bloodaxe, we've met ! I assume that many Aria pros of the 80's with twin MBlll pups would be similar, but yes, if Pete doesnt get back to us here, i will tap you for a photo

Are there any owners who know the wiring circuit for the Aria Pro ZZB deluxe ? Its the 2 pup MBlll model. I bought the pair of MBll's and the circuit - blend switch, vol, tone - and although the pots and jack socket are all still wired together, the pups are not The previous owner had snipped off the pup wires, leaving stubs where they used to be, so simply re-wired them as they appeared to be. But i got nothing. The switch is a strange one. Its not 6 pole like normal blend switches, but 3 pole. And the earths appear to be on the side of the body of the switch Some advice and/or photos or diagram would be really helpful ta !

For a pedal to only take what millamps it needs, doesnt the PS need to be the regulated kind ?

Why did it not make sense. Was the J tone pretty nasty @ 11k ?

Both good points and i'm aware of them, but those reasons are why i said i have never found a balance of volume between them. No one has wound a J that will balance out put at the bridge with a P at the neck. And i've never managed to lower a P pup far enough to lower the out put while jacking up the the J as far as possible. They still dont balance This is why I favour the amp i currently use, a Carvin BX1600. When switching from P to J, i can kick in the defeatable graphic. Problem solved

Entertaining chit chat from MK in his studio. The gear floating about in here is outrageous [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-7pQJN9v58"][media]http://www.youtube....h?v=C-7pQJN9v58[/media][/url]

Sold Jose a pedal and he paid instantly, no fuss. A great dude and good to chat to as well. Thanks Jose 10/10

A highlight could be Govan whipping out his fretless Vigier. Imagine that - fretless bass is hard enough

[quote name='Wonky2' timestamp='1450031089' post='2928958'] Best part of all, it all fitted in the boot, carried in and set up within minutes, packed away in minutes.... Got home and unloaded gear from car into house in ONE TRIP!!!! [/quote] Indeed - same here. NY cabs, Carvin amp head + rack case , total weight = 75lbs. Not much more than a pair of bedroom slippers Laughing all the way to the next gig. 19th December. Tally Ho

Bub - if you love the Ozrics, then you'll love Hillage. You'll hear the similarities Curtis Robertson Jr on bass [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9ZfQUVNsqo&list=RDk9ZfQUVNsqo[/media] And for some rather evil bass lines, check Mike Howletts devil bass on this...

Our lead git uses a Gibbo LP / Marshall , and has no prob with woolly. Our rhyth git uses Strats / Marshall ... ditto.

The cheapest fold flat raiser i could find - i bought a couple of the black ones, 40cm height http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-Multi-Purpose-Folding-Step-Stool-Home-Kitchen-Easy-Storage-Upto-150kg-Capaci-/131607802948?var=430979562276&hash=item1ea46fb444:m:mAN4utmoHa3SAr4ElAtp4gg

The only thing that you might want to think about when using that pre out is that its post EQ, and most studio recordings would probably be better with a clean signal and EQ added later, though not a big deal in the great scheme of things

Was that a real name ? Brilliant !

I looked at Roq for my NY 121 cabs, but baulked at the prices, and they only have limited protection against knocks in transit So I decided to keep the original boxes that mine shipped in. Well , one original MB and one regular. I covered up most of the shipping labels and whatnot and then fitted strong ' handles ' , which is in fact a recycled very strong bass case. The boxes are different sizes so when the cabs are removed, one stores inside the other. Also, i use foam inbetween the fold flat raiser, and foam inbetween the 2 cabs. This will stop rubbing marks

Yuuuuuuuup ! Have a babycham on me

Its getting too complicated for me now, so it will have to remain LED-less

Dammit Thanks Red - gonna leave it without LED and have to remember when i've kicked it in

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1449827964' post='2927193'] You need to replace the DPDT footswitch with a TPDT one and then wire the LED along with a battery to the third pole of the switch so that when the signal is routed to the volume potentiometer the LED is on. [/quote] The idea was to keep power out of it. I dont to want power the pedal with battery or 9v PS. Does the LED need its own power ? Would signal from the guitar not be enough when the pedal was kicked in ?
