That's pretty shocking for what would have been an expensive bass when new. BTW the trade name for that stuff is VERO board, generic name is strip board.

Just arrived at work! I sent my Sessionette 75 off to have the RetroTone Upgrade, by the originator/designer, Stewart Ward of Award-Session. He has been working on this upgrade to make the amps more valve-like in articulation and tone, without the maintenance issues. I thought I'd give it a go and get the reknowned crackly pots seen to at the same time. Well, we will see when I get it home! Pics and review to follow.

Anyone use these? Looking to use mainly with guitar, maybe a bit with bass too. Are they any good or just toys? All views welcomed, cheers

Whoever does their photos is pretty good too....

[quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1394481966' post='2391855'] I can also vouch for Ironside (above). A very talented chap and a very kind offer. I'd personally bite his arm off... [/quote] Presumably AFTER he's finished mixing?

Any joy Bilbo?

Most of that sort of tape can be softened gently with a hairdryer then prised away. You don't need to go mad with the heat.

Glad to be of help! *runs around room with shirt over head, arms aloft, footballer stylee*

Sunn Beta guitar combo had cross-firing speakers. I'm sure I've seen some designs for similar recently-ish too. Can't think where though.

Looks like ash to me

Motorboating?

I hate the way they rattle when sitting down with no tension on the strap, Dunlops and Schallers. The Grolsch/showerhead washers don't do that.

What kind of permissions do you have to get to do a Tribute band and put their tunes up online? Very decent sounding recording, good work.

Just looked on Neutrik's website. The Combo actually has Speakon 1/4 Jack Combo embossed on it! Glad I didn't stick it in hard now!

Yup, Microbass are good for home. Not had a go on the Crush though.

That would be a giveaway. In that case, a) they're not, I've never seen one!

is it one of the strings vibrating on the frets BEHIND the point of fretting? You may be damping the unplayed string less if you are fretting 2 strings

This may sound like a daft question, but are the Speakons on a Shuttle the combo type that will also accept a mono jack plug? It feels like it might go in but is rather tight, so I stopped before I did any damage by jammimg it in and either getting it stuck or splitting the socket. Cheers Jules

" So far the body blank is marked out, the neck rough cut and the truss road fitted and the LEDs have been installed into the fretboard. On a previous build, I fitted LEDs to the face of the fretboard but this time I'm fitting them on the side." Good choice.

Thanks G. I actually prefer people to post the URLs as I can't view embeded YouTube on my Kindle Fire HDX, which is a major pain in the ar$e for me, especially on threads that are YouTube content heavy. If I'd known the Kindle didn't support flash, I probably wouldn't have bought it.

Being an open-backed cabinet (at least, my Dominator Mk111 was) the cab is not optimal for bass, but if it sounds ok you wont be doing too much damage to the speaker. I regret selling mine.

It's Elixir btw

Shot by a lad from work, we didn't get any say in the editing, but he did it for bobbins.... It's noticeable that the quality of the hand held is miles nicer than the static. Static is an hd camcorder, hand held is a decent slr. Sorry for the bvs, the wiggly thing and the face! It was the end of the set... http://http//www.youtube.com/watch?v=XUUn_5qNguo

Not a fan then?
