  1. [quote name='Mr. Foxen' post='1317293' date='Jul 26 2011, 04:43 PM']Find some lead solder. Not lead solder is all round rubbish.[/quote] Was going to say the same.... with a 25w iron is more than adequate.
  2. *GONE* Clearing out my garage, finding all sorts! Used it before myself, & it sounded alright. Think it was a Laney combo in a previous life, but was chopped to make a cab. Maybe of use to someone(?) If anybody wants it, please give me a shout. Thanks
  3. [quote name='gjones' post='1312852' date='Jul 22 2011, 03:39 PM']I'd be very interested in your review (considering I just bought a new TC classic 450 and it was a toss up between it and the Ibanez).[/quote] Me too... would be grateful to hear opinions, as I'm looking at getting either a TC Classic or a Promethean(?) Thanks

    [quote name='Al Heeley' post='1287893' date='Jun 30 2011, 03:46 PM'][b]Doss Performer[/b] This is for our lead guitarist. It doesn't do anything, just the red LED flashes randomly for a bit when someone stomps on it. He seems to like it though.[/quote] Brilliant! I like it.
  6. I'm pretty much a H/H fan, think they made some great bass amps in their time. Though I think they can be an acquired taste More info here: [url="http://www.hhamplification.co.uk/"]H/H Amplification[/url]
  7. [quote name='Mr. Foxen' post='1282243' date='Jun 25 2011, 04:28 PM']Pretty much every other Rick copy you can get is better than the Hondo.[/quote] +1 , not very good.
  8. [quote name='sifi2112' post='1280722' date='Jun 24 2011, 11:19 AM']Great amp / had one of these before .. but I'm after a 700-II (& probably wouldn't have posted if it had been lol)! [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Gallien-Kruger-400RB-vintage-Bass-Head-/120740323935?pt=UK_MusicalInstr_Amplifiers_RL&hash=item1c1caf225f"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Gallien-Kruger-400RB...=item1c1caf225f[/url][/quote] Nice one - thanks ....
  9. [quote name='cocco' post='1277209' date='Jun 21 2011, 03:46 PM']Are these 2 a side?[/quote] Yes - good point. Will amend post - thanks
  10. [quote name='Annoying Twit' post='1277582' date='Jun 21 2011, 07:45 PM']I suspect that he has just found out that Mick has passed on, and was reacting to that.[/quote] Fair point - thanks.
  11. Good newish site on Mick Karn here, looks promising.... [url="http://www.sonsofpioneers.net/"]Sons of Pioneers[/url]
  12. Probably fuzz - my DIY Maestro Brassmaster clone.
  13. I'm having fun with this '78 Antoria (with EMG fitted), bought from Liam (Leeroybass) on here a short while ago.
  14. Hi, echoing other's comments, it is pretty easy. Done it myself on my basses, though at the moment prefering no cover over the pickup, as I found that's the sweetspot for me on a P-Bass. I've done it with the strings still on, electrics in etc.... Would suggest having a few goes with your drill on an old piece of wood first though, just to get the feel of the drill if you haven't used one before. Alternatively, shouldn't think a tech would charge any more than a tenner for drilling four holes, and shouldn't be any chance of messing it up! However, they do look cool IMHO Good luck!
  15. Wouldn't go near it myself
  16. Hi All, A friend of mine's band (Bristol based) are after a bass player. Nice bunch of people, good players. Pub gigs & the odd festival, biker rally etc... Material is rock covers...

  20. I've got a relatively high action (about 3-4mm) on my Fender CIJ P-Bass which is strung with 49-109 La Bella flats. Use this bass for Motown, soul etc... like the feel of extra tension & resistance, better for ghost notes,double stops etc.... Plus it gives that tone IMHO. All my other basses are strung with lower actions & lighter gauge strings.
