  3. Not unless you have an Ampeg BA 600 ? If not, just the cash , thanks
  4. Yup, its available. Dont know why i didnt post it with the knobs attached. Must have had a mental breakdown. I didn't get any knobs with mine, because when i went to John's, he was out of stock ( and still is i think ) of the U-Retro Deluxe Flat Response preamps with knobs, so i bought it ( maybe the last one ? ) without knobs and then supplied my own. I had single stack knobs here but bought the 2 weird stacked knobs for the push pull pots [url="http://postimage.org/"][/url]
  5. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ East U-Retro 5 Pot Deluxe. This is also the modern screw terminal for pickup wires, and the optional Flat Reponse electronics Great condition. Was meant to be for a Fretless project, but the project has been abandoned due to sheer laziness £125 Includes postage [url="http://postimg.org/image/jczxbj17j/full/"][/url] [url="http://postimg.org/image/uqmgmqbq7/full/"][/url] [url="http://postimage.org/"][/url] [url="http://postimage.org/"][/url]
  6. Something which i suspect could be done with 2" of polystyrene slab Just mosey down to your local independant fridge/cooker/hoover leccy sales shop and ask them for some polystyrene packing from inside one of their fridge shipping boxes. Its usually free
  7. £64 for a bit of sponge ? Seems the main benefit is to the ' inventor '

  9. Thanks bird ! Off to do some wiring
  10. My J style bass has a P and a J but both are Humbuckers, and have decided to pull out the East Retro 01 and fit standard control plate Vol Vol Tone The Humbuckers are just 2 wire jobs ( hot n ground ) as per normal J bass pups. So as i have forgotten the most basic of wiring up configuration, ( der ) would this diag be ok ? I've seen variations, which is why ask

    3db

    Cheers Bill Oh man, i'll have to reply to the guitarist and say he was right. How depressing

    3db

    So that guitarist was right ? Dammit 1db is just noticable but only in the midrange ?

    3db

    I struggled to find the answer here on searches, there's just so much info. But, a guitarist ( yes one of those, not a bassist ) says that a human being with normal hearing, can detect an increase of less than 3db. I thought the minimum increase a human ear can detect was 3db, assuming the human has no impairment to the ears. Or maybe it's 2.9db or something. Is 3db just a ball park figure ? So, you have a bass cab that has a driver with rated efficiency of 100db. You set your amp volume at number 5. You get x amount of perceived volume. You then change the driver ( same cab , same TS spec, leave amp volume knob where it was ) but the driver is now 103db efficiency. Can one perceive a volume increase. ? All things being the same again, but with a driver with efficiency of 102.5db . Can that increase be perceived ? Or what about 102db... ?
  14. Recently picked up this combo and was wondering , thats if Ampeg do not fit their own manufactured speaker units, what speaker would be used. Do they outsource from say, Eminence or others ? The bottom end on this is huge, when using the P neck pup, and almost undefeatable. I have a Jazz type axe thing but with a P in the neck. Both pickups are the the Entwhistle Neo's with their monster magnets and also have an East jazz drop in preamp. I'm thinking it could be the bass and/or preamp. Using the P neck pup, with all bass rolled off on the east preamp AND ampeg, the bottom end is still huge. Having said that, I love this combo
  15. Vintage = Low-Fi Modern = Hi-Fi I'm partial to something inbetween. Mid-Fi
  16. Rediculous price though Try this... [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CLIP-ON-Dual-Arm-LED-Reading-Stand-Light-Lamp-for-iPad-2-Kindle-3-3G-wifi-/221230247216?hash=item338259ad30"]http://www.ebay.co.u...=item338259ad30[/url] Despite the Aus dollar price, the seller and item are located in London
  17. [quote name='ColinB' timestamp='1441658991' post='2860729'] Why would you not want to stab the drummer? [/quote] Indeed, if you play on the drummer's right and play right handed, stab away. Unless you play on the drummer's left and are right handed ( me ), you can stab the gitwrist. Just as good a target, i reckon
  18. [quote name='roceci' timestamp='1441282696' post='2857505'] Bandstand by Family. Cracked it out last week for the first time in years, great groove rock & solid, tasteful bass throughout. [/quote] Oh sweet baby jeeeeezus .. Burlesque - top 5 bass lines of all time

  20. Must Bang Sally .. laughage nearly as bad as Kravitz's Are You Gonna Blow My Gay
  21. I hope he takes note. Nature is trying to tell him something. Never liked his bass style or music, but i adore the man himself. A proper character, a scholar and gent and tells things how they are.
  22. Talk of the devil...
  23. Quite right Strange, my local garage charges a huge amount compared to 20 years ago to fix my Vauxhall. So does the local electrician, and the plumber, when i need their relevant services They obviously havent heard the news
