Hi

I have had a replacement backplate and PCB on backorder from the UK supplier for over three months for an Ampeg SVT 8x10. Can anyone offer any advice as to where I may get these quicker?

Cheers

Some of the tracks on 'Joe Zawinul & The Zawinul Syndicate - World Tour' are plain awesome, in particular 'Patriots'. Richard Bona on bass I think?

I'll be honest, it may have always been there but then my hearing isn't what it used to be. Checked the bias/balance etc. but have read that there may be an inherant problem with the VR of this nature. Any advice from you guys?[/quote]

Now being sent to Germany for repair, but get this, and I quote
"Before we commence though, I must advise you on the outcome of the modification.
Once the modification has been done on the board, the DI out cannot be switched from Pre/Post EQ anymore.
It will stay as a Post EQ DI out, on both channels. Is this alright with you? "

Our lead guitarist often wonders how I practise without taking my bass home. It may sound weird, but I can practise (to an extent) in my head. That's what I tell him, anyway.

Sad to say, and I even enjoyed playing it..."you're the one that I want"

My PA which is JBL SRX is made up of neodynium magnets. They turn subsinto a 1-man lift rather a 2-man lift or a back breaker. Can't think of any differences in sound between this and any previous speakers I've used in terms of sound.

At times like this, I always like to quote the Distance Selling Regulations to the offending company

Going down Monday and Tuesday. What you up to on the Sennheiser stand? Will definitely be seeing Eddie & Ken.

I remember we got £2000 for a five-piece function at the Mollington Banastre in 1995. I was really ill leading up to it with a virus. Had to be sick several times in a bucket in the dressing room but you can't turn down £400 a man.

Line 6 Bass Pod for sale. 2 yrs old - Mint condition. Only used in home studio. £130 delivered. C/w dongle (great word) and manual.
Will try and upload pics later.

Anyone going?

Can you PM me?

How do you find the 9098? Have access to 9098EQ but only used it on vocals. You rate it on bass? Also have you ever used any of the Buzz Audio pres?

I've been recording through an Avalon U5 the past few months but I'm a great fan of a Neumann U47 Fet through a Neve 1073 DPA. My other fave is straight through my Drawmer 1960. Like yourself, I have access to everything from 57s to 67s and 47Vs but I always find you go back to what you know. Likewise I was recording a cranked up Marshall with an SG a few months ago - tried Royers and Neumanns but went back to a 57!

Money - Pink Floyd

Couldn't agree more with Jensenmann. In particular, I have always had good results with my Sen MD421. If you do ever get a chance to try one, the original D12 kicks the ass of a D112 - it's a real shame they're no longer in production.
Jensenmann - what mics and pres do you normally record with out of interest?

We'll wait and see. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't want to see you out of a gig. I hope the 'new' PA gets sorted and your gig is a success.

Unlikely!

I'll ask him what they're called tomorrow and let you know.

1st rig taken out fully last Tuesday. New company put rig in last week and took it out again Thursday night. Mate's band played there a few weeks ago then the venue didn't pay them although they brought people in and were promised £100.

PA has been taken out of this venue twice in two weeks.

1st bass - Hohner Rockwood
1st guitar - Phantom Rhythm Master

You could could try the Schertler Stat-B Select. All the Schertler gear is excellent.
