  2. [quote name='Marvin' post='1128651' date='Feb 15 2011, 05:57 PM']Discreet's build looks fantastic, here it is [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=105476&hl=first+build"]Jack 12[/url][/quote] I'd also like to point out that this build diary has got to be one of the funniest ever written! Also have to agree, [u]very[/u] professionally finished cab.
  3. I can highly recommend Bills' designs and plans - [url="http://www.billfitzmaurice.com/"]http://www.billfitzmaurice.com/[/url] The 'Jack' series are fairly straightforward builds and sound great.

  5. Used to be mine this one. Surprising amount of ooomph for its size. Buy! Buy! Buy!
  6. Gilles bought my Avalon U5 and I found him to be a thoroughly pleasant chap to deal with. Miss out on a deal with Gilles at your peril! Many thanks my friend. Grahame
  7. Wonderhorse (Liam) brought one of these along to trial my (now his) SVT Classic through. We had the SVT at around 7 on the master and this cab sounded fecking incredible - real trouser flappin' stuff!! Bump for an excellent cab.
  8. What sort of budget do you have friend?
  9. Just sold a rack setup to Craig. Really easy guy to deal with and a real pleasure! Thanks Craig! Enjoy the rack. Cheers Grahame
  10. This has sold now. Thanks to everyone for popping by!
  11. Thanks for the heads-up Stevie! Also your kind comments Platypus. However, sold subject to the usual!
  12. Used to have one of these. Really nice sounding fretless. Have a bump on me!
  13. Ok……. I'd like to shift this to help [s]finance[/s] pay for a certain something. It started off as a fretted Dean Vendetta but as it has a fairly 'mid forward' sound and I fancied it as a fretless I called on Andy Viccars ([url="http://www.andyviccarscustom.co.uk"]www.andyviccarscustom.co.uk[/url]) to work his magic. Andy replaced the finger board with a lovely slab of ebony and, as has been done to a couple of my other fretlessessessess, installed Bartolini pickups and preamp. This is the result - Weighs in at 3.75kg (8.25lbs). The neck's 37.6mm wide at the nut. The Bart' electronics give a great variety of tones and a fairly hot output. The controls are - - Volume (with Active/Passive push-pull) - Blend - Mid (push pull freq selector) - Treble/Bass Stack. Only downer is that the board is very slightly marked from using roundwounds. Was £475 now [s]£350[/s] £300 including a [u]tatty[/u] hard case delivered to an address of your choice within the mainland UK. Thanks to Rob for the photos - [url="http://r-harvey.co.uk/#_"]Website[/url] Cheers Grahame
  14. Ok you lovely people, we have here an Avalon U5 Direct box / Preamp complete with racking kit up for grabs. Here’s a link to find out all the Techy Bits - [url="http://www.avalondesign.com/instrudi.html"]http://www.avalondesign.com/instrudi.html[/url] Sounds the absolute danglers and is in excellent condition. I’m only selling ‘cos I’ve got my eyes on something very special. Yours my friends for £300 inc postage to the mainland UK Thanks to Rob for the photos - [url="http://r-harvey.co.uk/"]http://r-harvey.co.uk/[/url] Cheers Grahame
  15. I bought Pauls' Sansamp and found him to be a pleasure to deal with! Good communications throughout and all that. Cheers Paul! Grahame
  16. Feck... Fingers crossed for you my friend.
  17. I brought a small herd of Ampegs in from the states when there were two dollars to the pound which worked quite well. Worth remembering that you'll pay duty on the freight costs as well.
  18. Check the standby switch on your valve amp [u]before[/u] hitting the first note in a set.
  19. My teacher's got me learning notation for acoustic guitar first. Once I've got the hang of that the idea is that I shift over to the bass clef. There are masses of books for learning notation for acoustic and you get to play proper melodies very quickly which is rather nice. Seems to be working for me. BTW, I've used the very book you've got and I know what you mean about the numerous rhythm exercises. All the best.
