Hawkwind - some great (and under-appreciated) bass playing
nick replied to Clarky's topic in General Discussion
[quote name='Clarky' post='845254' date='May 22 2010, 06:20 PM']Lemmy's main replacement, Alan Davy (was in band 1984-96 and 2000-07) is no slouch either. He is very similar in style to the Space Ritual-era Lammy and is at his best on the album 'Electric Tepee' (check out 'Sputnik Sam'). Well worth checking out too IMHO. He now fronts a hard rock trio called Gunslinger who are in the same genre as Motorhead[/quote] +1 Great album is Electric Tepee. 'Right to Decide' is another corker off that albam, Alan Davey really drives it along. My favourite Hawkwind bass player was Harvey Bainbridge though. -

Which is what I paid myself inc. booking fee etc Can deliver tickets if required in Bristol area. Please PM me if interested. Thanks

[size=3][i]*Sold - Pending Payment*[/i][/size] [size=3][u]Gould 'Non-Reverse' Thunderbird Copy[/u][/size] Bought this a short while ago on a whim, wanting to try something different from the usual P-Basses. Alas, I've realised I'm not a Thunderbird kinda guy. Two soapbar pickups, two volume & one tone with set-neck. Sunburst finish, with a minty-green-white vintage style scratchplate. In quite good condition, no noticeable dinks or scratches, but there is a slight knock to the underside of the headstock tip (as shown in photo). The bass sounds OK, plays alright, neck is a bit on the chunkyside - it is a bit of a beast of a bass! Don't know much about the manufacturer, found a [url="http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Electric+Bass/product/G.+Gould/Thunderbird+Copy/10/1"]review here[/url] , though it's not made in Japan as reviewer states, presume China or Indonesia is more likely. The guitar version of this does bear a striking resemblance to an Eastwood Stormbird, so who knows(?) £85 ono + £15 P&P. Local collection OK. Please PM me if interested. Thanks

Was going to mod it, but realised it's not for me - just too damn funky! Sold with paperwork & the nice wooden box that came with the Sovteks. £35 + £7 P&P (it's heavy with the box!). Collection is OK. Please PM me if interested. Thanks

Love this. Bab Babbitt on the bass(?)

I go for all controls flat on my TE V-Type (at 12'oclock) - perfect for me. If I really need to cut through, there's a push-pull upper-mids boost on the mid control - Like a kick in the chest!

[size=3][i][b]*SOLD*[/b][/i] [/size] [b][size=3]Digitech Bad Monkey overdrive[/b] [i]Bass modded for better low end[/i].[/size] Lot of love for these pedals. Great for 'warming' things up, getting old school tones, particularly with a S/S amp. In good condition, no scratches, chips etc - velcro underneath, for attaching to pedalboard. Gonna miss this, but with having a valve amp, I'm not using it. Plus, getting rid of it will force me to finish off the Bassdrive clone I've been sitting on for ages. [s]£30[/s] £25 + £4 postage. Local collection OK. Please PM me if interested. Cheers

[quote name='BruceBass3901' post='824739' date='May 1 2010, 12:26 PM']I wish I had waited now and not got the Lomenzo Hyperdrive Interested in any trades?[/quote] I might be, though I can't think of anything I need at the moment. Got too many effects as it is - hence me selling a few of them. What do you have? I might be tempted!

[b]Boss CS-3 Compressor with 'Humphrey' Mod.[/b] Neatly done by myself as per Ovnilab instructions. [url="http://www.ovnilab.com/reviews/bosscs3.shtml"][b]Review & Info here[/b][/url] This is like a different pedal - greatly improved. Unfortunately, don't have any soundclips, but hopefully this youtube clip I've found of CS-3 with the same mod, will give some idea of what it sounds like. [i]Full refund if buyer doesn't like it![/i] My reason for selling is that I have two & don't need a spare Pedal itself is in very good condition, no chips etc... with only a tiny hairline scratch beneath the Attack control (as in photo). Comes with original box & documentation. £45 + £4 postage. Local collection OK. Please PM me if interested. Thanks Nick

How many valve amp owners carry a spare head in case of emergencies?
nick replied to Delberthot's topic in Amps and Cabs
[quote name='Musicman20' post='820416' date='Apr 27 2010, 11:12 AM']+1, DI box. Either just a full on DI or a DI combination pedal like Sansamp.[/quote] Same here, though it's one of those Behringer copies. I do carry spares, though if anything did blow or went wrong etc, I doubt I'd have time to fix or diagnose the problem. -

String Identification - Flats, no silks (photos)
nick replied to BigBeatNut's topic in Accessories and Misc
Look like Webstrings Detroit Flats to me. I've had sets with gaps in windings before - good flats.
