  1. Played a cracking little venue last night in Liverpool (Vinyl Bar) We were on for 9PM and played for 2 1/2 Hours solid! We were only on a 10% cut of the Bar, It was pretty busy! Our Guitarist plays the venue quite regular with another 3 piece and comes away with around £40 and a few bottles of wine thrown in. Once we packed the gear away we were pretty shocked when we were given £30 (£10 each) Our Guitarist lives in N.Wales (Rhyl) not to mention the miles both myself and the drummer clocked up between us. Something didn't quite add up, Guess that's the last time we visit that venue!
  2. Hi, Having traded my GT6-B with another Basschatter for a few pedals, I have had a little play around and i have no real use for the BOSS SL-20 unit. I am on the lookout for a 4 ohm 2x10 cab (Peavey / carpeted TX cab prefered!) Description Instant Audio Adrenaline Inject a shot of high-octane fuel into your music with the SL-20 Slicer. Instantly transform a guitar, bass, keyboard, or vocal into a pulsating groove instrument. Choose from 50 onboard Slice patterns or experiment with the SL-20's innovative Harmonic Slicer feature, which generates percussive melodies, Loop Record, and unique 3D Panning. Features • Instant groove and percussive-melody generator • 50 Slice patterns onboard, with adjustable attack and duration, including Harmonic Slice • Tap Tempo via onboard pedal switch: internal and MIDI sync • Sound characteristics such as attack, duration, effect level, and direct level are controllable via external Expression pedal (sold separately) • Variety of output modes, including the unique 3D Panning for spacious sliced FX Groove and Melody Maker The SL-20 transforms your music into percussive ‘chopped’ grooves. Fifty rhythmic patterns are onboard, with adjustable note attack and duration, plus amazing Harmonic Slice effects. Create high-energy patterns onstage in real-time, or use the SL-20 as a song writing and recording tool. Play the sliced sounds in real-time while capturing them with Loop Record. Flexible Control An internal tap-tempo feature is included, as well as the ability to sync to external MIDI clock. Sound characteristics of the SL-20 such as attack, duration, effect level, and direct level can be controlled by the onboard knobs or from an external Expression pedal. Universal FX The SL-20 is an addictive effect that inspires creativity. It's great for guitarists, but it's equally useful for other instrumentalists as well. Plug in a bass, keyboard, iPod or any other instrument or music-playback device. DJs and dance-music artists will also love the SL-20 as a rhythmic-performance tool. Cheers Justin.

  5. [quote name='BurritoBass' post='569644' date='Aug 14 2009, 11:51 PM']I'd hang fire & see whether he replies to a polite message. Warning bells may be ringing but it's not critical... yet! Fingers crossed[/quote] Will do, Thanks
  6. Called him a number of times this evening, Just goes to a robotic answering machine. I have left a message (Not a harsh one) and advised him to contact me via Email, I will try to call again tonight. Justin.
  7. [quote name='BigBeefChief' post='569030' date='Aug 14 2009, 02:06 PM']I would start using a web forum popular with the Californian biking community. I'd post a few contentious threads re: gang affilliations to see who the psychopaths are. I'd then PM one of these nut cases with an offer of $500 to go round and break the luthiers legs and/or fingers. Glad I could help.[/quote] LOVE IT!!! Thanks fella's. Yes he did have a few medical issues and his new work shop went up last year, He did have a comments message board but removed it as a few customers were getting a little hot pretty much asking the same questions as me!!! I will try and call him in a few hours as its around 7AM there now. Cheers Justin.
  8. Thanks to everyone who replied, That Address & Number is a great help and i will try it ASAP, My order is on the Current orders page under one of the custom tabs! - J.Ryan If all fails i will try using a new Email as a new customer!!! Cheers Justin.
  9. Has anyone had any experience using Christopher Woods Custom Guitar / Bass's? He is situated in the US and agreed to build a custom headless neck for me last year, Once i had decided on specs i sent the required measurements and detailed pics etc to him with 50% of the adreed fee = $270 via Paypal! This was all sent early September 2008. Since then i have sent a number of Emails REF = How things were going and requested pics etc as he usually posts a build diary on his website, His last reply was January 2009 which stated - The neck should be finished by Wednesday and there is an outstanding balance to pay prior to shipping! My name is still on his current orders page but has always been lablled (Neck in Mid process etc) I have sent numerous Emails regarding updates and advising him i just want to see the Necks progress and if he is just waiting for the remaining balance then i will send it once happy with the neck etc. Chris works mainly on his own using an assistant and has always made a point of saying, Answering dozens of Emails will take him a days work out of the workshop? I am now getting worked up, Should i just wait it out and see what happens? Its been far too long to open a Paypal dispute! Here is the Site = [url="http://www.christopherwoods.com/"]http://www.christopherwoods.com/[/url] Any thoughts! Justin.
  10. Unit now Swapped ! Thanks for all your interest. Justin.
  11. I would like to say a big thanks to Steve for setting up a couple of my Basses! Dropped them off, Had a chat & a brew, Went away on my hols for a few days then as promissed, Both Basses were ready to collect when i returned home. Neck/ Frets checked & Tweeked, New Nut, Strings and Action Set etc. All in all they are 100% more playable and having just done an 8 hour rehersal session everything seems spot on? Cheers Steve, J.

  17. Hi Folks, I bought this Nomad Bassman 19" 1U FX unit from Silverfoxnik a few months ago, I realy don't use it and i am cutting down on my rack gear! The Nomad seems to be quite a rare piece of kit and I've looked around on Ebay and Harmony Central amongst other places for more info on the company or the unit itself, but I just can't find a thing about either. The pics have been taken by Silverfoxnik and he has kindly agreed for me to use them for this add. It's pretty versatile, with an excellent Chorus sound, pretty good Octaver, an okay Flanger and a very good Compressor, though it's not subtle! The effects can be used independently or in any combination of the four. Soundwise, using all 4 effects together is just a bit too processed sounding for me, but using the Compressor and the Octaver together can give you some great P-Funk sounds! Anyway, I'm looking for around £45 + p&p. Am happy to post or it can be collected and tried out first for anyone who's nearby.. Thanks for looking and, any questions, please just ask! Justin.
