I think some or all of the 8 Miles High solo is reversed anyway, so trying to "play" it right is a fruitless task. I love it for its chaotic sound and feel and have done the same on some of my recordings, with results I really like. I think the Hi Ho solo is probably the laziest effort I can recall on a single, from a supposed guitar legend, worra load of crap.

I don't think they would plane the board off, probably apply heat and separate the glue sticking the board on.

I only know his playing from Survivors Suite by Keith Jarret, very nice and pretty understated. Cool player. RIP

Wembley Loudspeakers can do pretty much anything with speakers. Might be more economic to consider a different speaker, there might not be much in it, cost-wise! But if you gots to have the Burman....

Clem's great, but he reminds me of the drummer at the wrong gig bloke....

Royal Blood were good too, nice to see someone can sing in tune without in-ear-monitors. BBC were better than I was expecting too.

Plant was Pretty good, and I really didn't think Blondie were too bad at all. One or two tunes were a bit off (but who isn't at Glasto?) but there was one song that I thought was actually a better interpretation than the original. I don't know what some of you were expecting, I watched it on catch-up expecting some kind of car crash, but it totally wasn't. Loved Stein's XOX guitar too.

I had to do the same thing with a Sperzel tuner, used the pin as a marker. Worked out ok, but as it was the 1 on a 3+1 head it didn't have any other keys to line up with. Don't forget to put a depth stop on the drill if you do do it though!

I've only heard good things about the Vintage Lemon drop Les Paul - one ending on ebay in a couple of days: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-V100RPGM-Lemon-Drop-Distressed-Electric-Guitar-/291170434680?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item43cb1c3e78

U-retro has blend in passive mode

I'm having similar thoughts, and also have a Midget and Compact. I've never used them together yet though. The Midget has covered the last couple of gigs on it's own, and we played a fair bit louder than usual!

Hi Balcro Thanks for checking that for me. I assume you got the power handling vs freq and xmax figures from a different simulator to WinISD? - I couldn't see where it would provide that info. My next checks will be about the port. I will go for a full width slot. I don't have the sizes to hand, so from memory it was about 268mm by 30mm giving a shelf length of about 90mm and mach 0.10. I did read somewhere that there should be at least 3" (76mm) gap between the end of the port and the rear panel, so with a box depth of 168mm it should be just about ok

[quote name='Balcro' timestamp='1403174618' post='2480429'] As Bill and Phill have said, porting is the answer. Picture 1 is the Celestion in a closed box. Picture 2 is the result when fitted in a small slot ported box. Balcro. [/quote] What was the volume of the cab for that model? When I ran it in win|SD, the figure came out at 13 litres with a -3dB point at about 90Hz. I'm not looking for massive bass, so that seems ok, but I was a bit surprised at how small the volume came out. Not complaining though (unless I've entered one of the T-S parameters wrong!)

All moot as it is sold now according to the website.

That's a really nice looking bass, but I think the headstock looks a bit out of proportion, maybe a Telecaster shape or 2-a-side (like, er, Westone) would look better aesthetically. IMO, of course!

Ok, that's pretty routine stuff. If you're lucky a basschatter local to you might chip in and offer to do it (or even better, show you how to do it) for a couple of pints

For a few years, I used a Roland Bass Cube60 (the old orangey coloured ones) with my Sessionette75 on top on clean, with the bass rolled off a bit, fed from the Cube's line-out. The whole thing didn't have massive bass obv, but a fantastic snap for punk-funk (think RHCP before they were around). The top end made it cut through enough to gig. Never damaged the guitar amp, still using it!

This ^

What is the job?

Cheers Phil, good info. Us muggles need these things pointing out by those who know stuff!

[quote name='charic' timestamp='1402927622' post='2477942'] I think you should make a cab into the exact shape to half of your car boot and then an opposite to match [/quote] I like your thinking, but drive a Meriva, so it would be mahoosive!

No Bill. It's just a cloud of ideas at the moment. I've not used WinLSD, but I guess that should be my first stop. A sealed cab of appropriate dimensions will give a gentle bass roll-off, yes?
