    So I’ve spotted a gap in the market? Unfortunately I have no technical or business sense to seize the opportunity with. Well, you read it here first, folks!

    Hello. I dip in to this thread now and again in the hope of absorbing some knowledge. I have a pair of ZS10 in-ears and am looking at getting a Behringer P1 so I can go through the very decent PA we ofen use. Got me thinking though - Is there a system for wireless bass signal send and monitor receive, so there’s only one pack on your strap?

    It was! The driver and amp looked like alright bits of kit! Would have made a nice practice amp. I would like to understand what went wrong, so any suggestions are very welcome.

    So a drum kit in a tiny courtesy car forced my hand yesterday - I took just this tiny cab to rehearsal. Kept it backed off and the bass EQ turned low to start. Gradually started adding more volume and bass til I got it up to an impressive sound (relative to the tiny size of it!) I can’t see it keeping up with my lively 9 piece soul band, but it can definitely do a rehearsal with drums, guitar & keys. Love it!

    My mate had an old Laney CP12 powered wedge. 100 watts in to 8ohms. He said it needed a new speaker, asked me if I wanted it for parts. Fired it up - seemed ok. A bit crackly. Sprayed a bit of cleaner in the pots, left it a few hours. Switched it back on, played bass through it for a bit. Crackles got a lot worse, then made some really loud pops. I’m thinking a blown speaker would just make farting noises, but this still had what appeared to be a full frequency spectrum (with added random nasty sounds) Checked all the internal connections - all good. Switched it back on, no sound from the input, maybe mains frequency buzz and smoke started to emulate from the back of the driver. I’m thinking it’s the amp unit rather than the speaker (at least until smoke came out of it 😂). Does anyone recognize these symptoms? Is it an easy fix, or is it definitely dead? I know it’s probably not financially viable for a tech to do, and possibly quite dangerous for me. Maybe I just want to understand what went wrong so I could learn to let it go!

    That looks awesome! I suspect the scratch plate is a custom affair?

    Bought an EHX Bass Blogger from @BreadBinat the SW Bass Bash (cheers dude!). You are of course right, Brandon - the dual outs are perfect. Gone is the splitter, the bass goes in to the Bass Blogger, wet signal goes to the tuner so he can have clean or distorted bass, also mute the bass. Dry signal goes to the Sub’n’Up on up only (no dry signal at all) in to the Zoom for guitar-type distortions. Bloody marvellous! Still haven’t managed to get my Zoom back for my rig though 😂

    In a listening test at the SW bass bash, these were the best sounding. I see one in my future.

    Exactamundo- bloody lovely thing!
  11. Pea Turgh
    That is sexual. I played one of Jabba’s other fretless semi hollows and it spoke to me. Bloody lovely. Congrats!

    Thank you @scrumpymike and family/friends - awesome day out with beautiful food and the best company! It was great to catch up with everyone. Emlyn loved his first bass bash, and is absolutely landed with his prize, so again, thank you @fiatcoupe432 for donating the bass and @yorks5stringerfor donating the gig bag to the draw! Also thank you @BreadBinfor the pedal. This means I get my own bass and zoom pedal back from the dark depths of the lad’s room! Played @wrinkleygit’s @Jabba_the_gut hollow-bodied fretless - I now “get” fretless! I need one (of Jabba’s) in my life, together with one of @stevie’s new cabs. What a combination that would be!!! Thank you everyone 🙏

    Cheers dude! Think I’m all spent for this month though 😂 (ssshhh, bring it just in case…)
  14. Pea Turgh
    Well this is escalating quickly! Got the octave issue addressed courtesy of @ricksterphil. I need another tuner for me and some form of distortion for the kid so I can have my Zoom back 😂 The lad is pretty darn good at this bass stuff - he’s joined a local rock school club type thing (Rock Project), so hopefully will be gigging soon. So I’m answer to my original question; no, you can’t do RB sounds on the cheap 🤦🏻‍♂️

    That’s a lot of cymbals!

    How did I miss this?!?! Awesome as always, @Maude! Are you bringing any of your basses to the SW Bass Bash?
  18. Pea Turgh
    Any more projects in the pipeline, @Maude? I love a good Maude build.

    The only reason I can see for building two is so you can also use them as an absolutely banging pair of hifi speakers. Unfortunately, Mrs Turgh does not share my vision.

    I can’t say I’ve ever felt that bad, but that is a top quote, and should be pinned somewhere. Or carved in to a stone tablet and visited by tourists.
  21. Pea Turgh
    I have the chrome version of that, but it’s presently on my son’s pedal board, so I might need another. And that is a rather fetching colour! If it’s still unsold by the SWBB, I’ll take it off your hands.

    Guitar at one end, bits of the Clifton suspension bridge at the other. The strings on the left look about the same thickness as a dangerous snake. What tuning are they supposed to manage!?!? About 6hz?
  23. Pea Turgh
    I’m no expert, maybe one or two notches past beginner, but I’d want the toms grouped a bit tighter together with the smallest tom positioned above the snare. Maybe pop the 8” & 12” on the bass drum and use a cymbal mount drum thing for the 13”?
  24. Pea Turgh
    That looks perfect! Did you put the lollipops on yourself or are they standard on what ever model that is? Lollipops just work on everything!
  25. Pea Turgh
    That do be nice. Are you doing the same to the front of the body?
