  1. Changed your cab or your bass since you first got it? Otherwise you prob are going deaf!
  2. Nice one Al. I didn't think you'd be bandless for long.
  3. *SOLD* Pair of rack ears to fit Trace Elliot heads. These work fine with my GP7SM. Had them shipped in from the States from British Audio Service who deal in Trace stuff on Ebay - here's the [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Trace-Elliot-Amplifier-RACK-EARS-KIT-for-Bass-Amps_W0QQitemZ380097824289QQcmdZViewItemQQptZGuitar_Amp_Accessories?hash=item380097824289"]link[/url]. Currently would cost you £23 to get a pair. I'll take a tenner.
  4. *SOLD* Trace Elliot GP7 SM 250w head. 7-band EQ and great Trace sound. Not too heavy either. Few gig bruises but no issues and works fine. Great head but surplus to requirements and I need the garage cleared! Ex-Beedster and I'm happy to pass it on not-for-profit at a bargain £150. No offers or trades thanks. Courier shipping at cost (about £10). Also have rack ears for it [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=41277&hl="]HERE[/url].
  5. [quote name='slaphappygarry' post='403302' date='Feb 8 2009, 12:09 PM']Garage Band AUTOMATICALLY converts every file into mp3 format (thats where your sound quality has dropped).[/quote] You can switch this off though and bounce down to CD quality. Deselect "compress" when you click on the "Send to iTunes" tab on "Share".
  6. Hold on to it, till the market picks up, I reckon. It's too nice to giveaway.
  7. [quote name='liamcapleton' post='408371' date='Feb 13 2009, 11:07 AM']... or maybe it was Carol Kaye. I should hide now[/quote] Defo - she played on everything Motown apparently. According to her.
  8. [url="http://www.ampcovers.co.uk/"]Silverstone[/url] covers are very good.
  9. [quote name='thinman' post='405775' date='Feb 10 2009, 09:44 PM']Funnily enough the two that object most are the least available two.[/quote] I used to be in a band just like that! Current outfit are relaxed about deps and have used a bass one when I've been ill. They missed me thankfully! I think you've got to be realistic about it - if you're booking weddings and stuff like that, you really do need a plan B if someone goes sick.
  10. This post cannot be displayed because it is in a forum which requires at least 1 post to view.
  11. The F-word doesn't really do it for me. The three I owned felt like antiques. Prefer the post-P stuff like the ones listed below!
  12. OP: you're right. Everything else seems to be available for a decent price apart from powered monitors. They seem immune to technological deflation! I ended up shelling out for a new Carlsbro PM10, which does the job great (although it's just started playing up). Watch for size though - a 10" is big enough for most gigs, the 12" take a fair bit of floorspace up.
  13. Am I aware of the rest of the band when I'm playing? You've clearly not met our drummer and guitarist. The guitarist has a Marshall fridge freezer that sounds like it's on fire inside and the drummer sounds like he's putting up shelves. They're pretty hard to ignore!
  14. You could get away with calling yourself semi-pro. Like this dude:
  15. Did you include the rest of the can of Nitromors in the sale, Phil?
  16. Cockermouth. Anything going on there apart from the Jennings brewery tour?
  17. Bit sad that G&L are making Fender copies. I always liked the quirkiness of their original stuff.
  18. [quote name='P-T-P' post='394392' date='Jan 29 2009, 10:53 AM']Once you click on the "Post New Topic" link, the page starts to load but then as IE8 tries to correct the code, it all goes a bit wrong and you get a blank page.[/quote] Sounds like Vista all over again. Why don't they test this stuff properly before releasing it?
  19. Lovely bass. Didn't Andy Rourke from The Smiths record most of their albums using one of these?
  20. They look cool although you still have to put the T-bar somewhere, which is easier said than done in small pubs. Defo better than big old par cans. We've got a couple of [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/stairville_led_par_56_alu_schwarz.htm?sid=93ccc3d27516e82f4c1ce091dd684916"]these LED ones[/url] from Thomann. £37 each (+£5 for a floor plate), they sit on the floor and light up the drums and backline with 5 colours each. Look cool.
  21. I used to have a HA2500 (or should that be "an"?). Good little amp but I found it a bit underpowered. The new one's prob a better bet.
  22. I've got one of these and they're absolutely perfect for small gigs. Bump!
  23. [quote name='L-mac' post='391064' date='Jan 25 2009, 05:11 PM']I dont want to waste a load of the time I have trying to find the "right" teacher.[/quote] It's a bit like asking: "what meal will I like eating?". Only you will know.
