  1. Can you take the foam off and put other things there? I messed with felt once and it was different from foam. Just wondering.
  2. I will freely admit to have no idea what is going on here. A long time ago I had and Audere preamp in a bass. It had some jiggery-pokery going on where you could change the impedance the pickups were seeing (I think, but as I mentioned above.......). What this did was create some BONKERS LF boost. I miss it. I plugged it into a Berg IP 2x 1 x 12 stack in the first Bassbash I went to and eybrows went up when I flicked that switch. I went to look at their website to buy one. They will not ship outside the US. So. is this something which could be done using off the shelf parts by someone who knows what they are doing in a passive circuit? Or is this an active thang? TIA
  3. It does not look like it. I wonder if the impedance switching thing is something which can be replicated seeing as I cannot actually buy one. I shall go and ask on the Repairs and Technical forum.
  4. No international shipping for Audere
  5. I had an Audere once. It had some kind of impedance switching option. It was utterly bonkers, in a good way. I think I might have to get one again now.
  6. Make sure you have the Chat Bombs at Mowgli
  7. Modern Drummer - 1989 "A good drummer that I like who plays simply is Phil Gould, who used to be with Level 42. He plays very simple, R&B-influenced drumming, but when he pulls a fill out it'll be a beautiful fill. And his feel is great. If you try to tap along with their downbeat-on-the-3 type of songs, you'll just about break your hand trying to come down behind the beat as much as he does. He has that feel down so well. It's very satisfying for me to listen to from a drummer's point of view or from a music fan's point of view. It feels great, has tremendous authority, and has the spice of a great little fill leaping out of it."
  8. Bass guitar = moderately painful. Double Bass = a whole world of pain. My wife is a harpist. She used to do the meths/white spirit things. I never saw it do anything.
  9. Phil Gould has a lovely groove to everything he does.
  10. Super glue. A few drops of liquid ona piece of paper. Run the affected area on it. Let it dry. Enjoy the gig.

  13. Ah well. They are lovely, lovely cabs
  14. We are all shallow enough to understand this. If I was buying a cab now I would be all over the Greenboy cab in the classifieds. Drive with any amp you fancy.

  16. Absolute. Comedy. Gold.
  17. Service is worship.
  18. Sometimes I feel that way. But not always
  19. It is still alive and kicking at work (FE College). Or i bought one for there a well. Sadly, a lot of my guitarist students cannot grasp the concept of a 5 string so I frequently find it tuned EEADG!
  20. I picked up an MTD Kingston on a whim on here a LONG time ago. I paid £180 for it. They hardly ever appear, they are very light, the neck is proper yummy and the control cavity is big enough to put whatever you want in there.
  21. I owned one of those for a bit. It was bonkers, in a good way. I only sent it back because yet again I proved that anything which gives me more than binary options makes my head hurt. I wish it was not so, but there it is. This is quite the machine.
  22. I hate compressors. I own 3 Spectracomps to use in different places. You changes presets using the zap from your phone speakers through your pickps thang. It is so ridiculously easy.
  23. It turns out that my son cannot come either, so I now have two spare tickets. Anyone fancy them?
