  1. I've had dealings for gear with Brian and the man is a scholar
  2. M13 with 2 extras The little box velcroed on the right is the SFX micro thumpinator
  3. https://www.basschat.co.uk/profile/11432-alyctes/content/
  4. Nursery Crime for me is the killer discette
  5. Another cracking bass, Rob.
  6. Hmm... McCready zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
  7. There's not a lot of room internally, so how did they get you inside ? Unless the rock musician version of you is about 1" tall.
  8. I could get away 10mm of bush thread, but i forgot to mention, i'm after full size pots. Strangely, i have a pair of Solid shaft 10mm thread, 6.35 shaft, CTS 250k Lin pots here, and i need another pair, but JHC, i cant find them anywhere. I'd really like matching brand, but no luck, hence looking for non matching pair
  9. I'm struggling to find some 250k Lin pots with a decent thread length on the bush, and also solid shaft. 15mm - ish threaded bush length is what i need. I checked for the quality names , CTS, Bourns.. but nothing pops up. Either they're split shaft, or short threaded bush, or both. Tried all the usual suspects - Axes R Us, CPC Farnell, RS Online, Mouser Elecs , guitar shops blah blah. Even Thomann .. Can anyone point me to a source ? Ta
  10. Dont forget to buy a portable winch. TE 2x15 1524 = 103 Lbs - ish
  11. Get one of the Shuttlemax dual channels. Awesome
  12. ...and again. An amp this time. Great packing as before.
  13. I doubt you would hear much difference between 500 and 800
  14. That looks like it'll need sanding and respraying. Something like Meguiars scratch remover is the ultimate stuff, but those scratches look too far gone
  15. I swapped out a Wilkinson MM pickup for a Warman MM and it was superb. I know its not specifically a P but if it's the quality of Warman pickups you're insterested in, have no fear
  16. Stop looking at my waffle
  17. Practically brand new AMPEG PF 500 , with original shipping boxes, inner and outer , both stamped Ampeg PF 500. Plus original Ampeg paperwork ( unopened ) and mains power lead Bought new by me early May , and has not left my house, or been gigged. I'm going back to a dual channel amp, and thats the only reason for selling. It's a superb amp, pokey, lightweight , and with a decent EQ Prefer collection, but will post at cost
  18. Yeah i guess i can throw the surplus parts in a draw. I'm surprised i can't buy a pair of those in a kit. The install accessories would then be tailored for 2 pickups.
  19. Thanks Woody. It still seems that buying 2 pickups means i get 2 of the large connector blocks, but surely , looking at the diagram for 2 pickups, i only need 1 ? And judging by the diagram 9 or 10, which seems the closest, they assume a pickup selector switch. And diag 9 uses 1 master volume and 1 master tone. Diag 10 uses 2 volumes and 1 tone. So i get left with a surplus main connector block with either diags, plus a spare tone and spare volume pots diag 9, or a spare tone pot diag 10. This doesnt seem a financially good way to purchase 2 of the HZ pickups
  20. I've been looking at EMG HZ pickups, and if i only wanted one pickup, it seems straight forward. One pickup comes with everything needed, apparently. But if i order 2, i get the same install system as 1 pickup. So double everything in the list. Surely they need to connect to each other somehow , like a regular pair of pickups. Since these use solderless connectors, not sure how this is done, and do i need exactly 2 of everything , as this is what i will get if buying a pair.
  21. Thats laughing at it which is was what i imagined J-curve ? Pah Luckily, we aren't playing big venues
  22. He wasnt offering an opinion. It was an attempt at being funny, because that description was already posted. Screenshot of Yamaha description
  23. Well, i can't sing , i ain't pretty, and my legs are thin. Nor can i keep time. I'd be perfect for that horrible mess of a band Oh, 'ang on.. Not much hair. Over 40. Dont move around around. No dress sense. Forget it
  24. I wonder what on earth a J curve line array is. Did Yamaha invent this as marketing BS and it means nowt. ? Well, we will know if Fitzy laughs at it, whether it's a real thing or not @Bill Fitzmaurice ?
  25. Sorry Al, no live stuff. Our rhyth git and vocalist has a humungus gaff in the country and a monster lounge, so we have fired it up with my bass and a backing drum kit, and vox, and it was damn impressive. We've been used to an old style PA ( heavy cabs, heavy amp etc ) As Fitzy said, its probably compromised for large auditorium gigs, but club / pub stuff, no probs
