  1. [quote name='Twincam' timestamp='1473090909' post='3126818'] I looked that up! Very funny Actually hold on there was actually a soundtrack for it. So I'm confused if that was a joke or you really were inspired? Haha. [/quote] No, it was the only French silent film I could think of offhand, so, yes, it was meant to be a joke. Trivia fact: this was the film referred to by the Pixies on the track Debaser. "I am un chein ANDALUCIA!", "slicing up eyeballs" etc. Surrealists, eh?
  2. I was looking on the Bartolini website, and they have 3 distinct ranges, Classic, Original and Singularity, all having different tone profiles: powerful lows and low-mids – bright treble [Classic Bass] :deep tone [Original Bass] :Singularity The asymmetric blade design yields powerful lows and low-mids along with bright treble due to its precise sensing aperture. This may give rise to why people have such differing experiences with Barts. You'd need to know the model numbers they are talking about! HTH MBA
  3. From a 4-track portastudio recording maybe 1986-8? Low sampling rate mp3, it's a bit of a racket! https://soundcloud.com/julian-moss-511168525/mandy-said For something more or less current, try Icthyophagus from here: [url="https://soundcloud.com/the-new-moon"]https://soundcloud.com/the-new-moon[/url]
  4. Are we to infer that the OP has a "friend" with this issue?
  5. I depped in a college band Supporting The Vapours. They did some Rock goes to College programmes from there, I'd guess the hall held 600+ people. It was all downhill from there...
  6. [quote name='stevie' timestamp='1472989218' post='3125765'] I agree with those who have replied already - cutting up an expensive cabinet will reduce its resale value and might not give you the result you're after. Another option would be a box with a small tweeter that would fit on top of your existing cab(s). Google Greenboy Head Case for the general idea. If you use one of these tweeters: <http://www.bluearan.co.uk/index.php?id=PAUPHT416&browsemode=manufacturer> the whole thing should come in at well under £50 and is likely to sound better than most commercial tweeters. Apart from the box, you'll need a couple of Speakons, some speaker cable, a capacitor, inductor and L-pad. [/quote] That's exactly what I did a few years ago with my G1 Compact. It was a tweeter with a built-in crossover (or didn't need one, piezo?~) and it added a bit of air and click on the attack. I didn't find it too hissy at all. It was a type used in Trace Elliot's p.a. series of speakers. Tiny ply box, Speakon, you're away! I just Velcro'd it to the top of my amp. I've actually got a spare one if you're interested.
  7. Should be winging their way to moonbassAlpha, barring alien intervention!
  8. Volvo V70? That's just cheating!
  9. [quote name='Twincam' timestamp='1472848100' post='3124843'] Having now listened to moonbassalpha's noodle it reminds me of something French like from a old French film maybe? [/quote] Yeah it was inspired by the soundtrack from Un Chien Andalou
  10. Renault 5 https://www.google.co.uk/url?q=http://zonderpump.com/image-post/2667-renault-54-1.jpg.html&sa=U&ved=0ahUKEwiXztyqnPPOAhWpI8AKHdljA1EQwW4IJjAI&usg=AFQjCNE2Zoyjjjv93dmpPrPJQgASllfeQA
  11. @ColinB Sounds like someone needs a man-bag
  12. Added a Soundcloud link as some were having trouble opening the Dropbox link. Try this: [url="https://soundcloud.com/julian-moss-511168525/august-noodle"]https://soundcloud.c...5/august-noodle[/url]

  14. Bootsy. I can live with that. Agreed, most of the answers you'd really give aren't on the list, but it's just a bit of fun, innit?
  15. Also, a touch of Wishbass about it. One of the higher spec ones, obviously
  16. Comprehensive and informative, as always! Thanks Douglas. MBA
  17. I haven't followed this competition for long, does anyone know what is the greatest number of entries in a month?
  18. Also very usable for guitar. I've gigged mine on bass into 2 cabs. Nice power stage drive without deafening everyone within a 50 yard radius. I'm finding it a very useful piece of kit.
  19. I don't know why Fender persist with those ridiculous big tuners. Many small ones do the job just as well, weigh less and simply look better proportioned.
  20. Found it! It's a BilT guitar, Zaftig model with about all the options you could load. [url="http://www.biltguitars.com/the-guitars/the-zaftig.html"]http://www.biltguita...the-zaftig.html[/url] I can sleep properly now
  21. The head looks massively out of proportion on this dinky bass, like a bad Photoshop job.
  22. I'm just wondering if anything on the other side of the preamp could be touching any of the potentiometer? Might be upsetting some part of the eq gain.
  23. Stairmaster! Would the target market for that be the older player? Gotta love auto-correct!
  24. [quote name='MoonBassAlpha' timestamp='1472138314' post='3118828'] While we're at it, any ideas on Lennon's guitar? Looks like a modified Jazzmaster with a starcaster neck or something... [/quote] Hmm, no takers on this question, maybe it's one for Guitarchat!
