[quote name='DHA' post='544860' date='Jul 19 2009, 07:19 PM']I will put one together in the next week or so. Looking at battery and power supply operated unit in a 120x90x35mm box. Active EQ, treble, mid and bass with 15dB cut and boost in each band (same circuit as my VT1-EQ), Mid band sweep Q control. Level pot and on led. XLR balanced DI out and 1/4" jack line out with high level output. 3 postion ground lift switch for the DI with Float, Ploat and ground. 1/4" jack in and if I can fit in on the box another 1/4" jack out that bypasses the line out, i.e. connected to the 1/4" jack in but DI will still work. Will work as a DI, EQ, Clean boost and Pre-amp. I will need to make a PCB if this pedal goes into production so will offer the first 5 takes a handbuild version for £49 including P&P. Target price for the production versions will be £59+PP. Dave DHA[/quote] I'll take #1 Dave... so long as you hand number/sign it and supply the power supply! Cheque or paypal OK?

Active/Passive... matters not a jot! Turn them up full whack and adjust the input of your amp accordingly. Of course if the resultant sound is not to your liking go back to turn everything down to zero and start adjust everything up incrementally and according to taste... until you get to full whack!

Fiat Panda / Bugatti Veyron... they both do the same thing but I know which one I'd rather have!

Here's my contribution, my Streamer LX-5: She's 10 years old this September - anyone know how to determine her real age? Cheers, Doug[/quote] The serial number on the back of the headstock - the last 2 digits are the year and the letter at the start tells you the month in which it was made (A=Jan, B=Feb but drop the letter 'I') or you could put your serial number in here for full details (mind even Warwick get it wrong occasionally ) [url="http://www.warwick.de/modules/support/serials.php?cl=EN"]http://www.warwick.de/modules/support/serials.php?cl=EN[/url]

[quote name='the-bass-man' post='538979' date='Jul 12 2009, 11:21 PM']Gotcha, just hope the weather's good enough to do this all outside in the next few weeks! Well, this is Scotland...![/quote] Don't forget the midgee repellent!

[quote name='GreeneKing' post='526553' date='Jun 28 2009, 10:27 AM']Here's my 1990 Thumb It's like something that's been hewn by German elves with Adzes. And a photo nicked from John: [/quote] I thought I recognised that! Oh and when I've got a spare hour I'll stick some pics up (past and present) but when 'peted' referred to the original Infinity Ltd Ed's he may have been referring to this bass.

[quote name='Musicman20' post='542515' date='Jul 16 2009, 07:18 PM']That would be VERY helpful! Thanks! Did the Aguilars come out on top?[/quote] Pretty much, yes. Though a couple of the cabs were highly rated.

[quote name='Musicman20' post='542501' date='Jul 16 2009, 06:54 PM']Has anyone seen this or a link to it?[/quote] I have a copy somewhere but can't find it to hand. I may be able to help you out with a scan of the article (sorry I'm keeping it)... when I find it!

I run a pair of DB1x12s and though I'm doing pubs and clubs etc. I've never come close to finding the limits of this pair of cabs. I did have a scare a month or two back as I thought I'd trashed a driver but after fitting a replacement (care of our own WoT who had a spare Eminence 500w from a Schroeder cab), I established it wasn't the driver after all. It may be of some interest to various parties that WoT Marcus and myself did a little bash where we got together the pair of DB112s, Marcus's pair of GS112s and WoT's pair of Berg 210s... I'll ask WoT and Marcus if they put up a thread/comment on any of the Forums.

[quote name='casapete' post='542350' date='Jul 16 2009, 03:55 PM']The Mark 111 series (and also the Mark 4 come to think of it) had a different layout to the Mark 5 IIRC. That deal for the whole setup is so good - get it! Had a Mark 111 years ago and it was a belter! The cabs were okay too (even better with Black Widow spkrs which were an option), and with the build quality being so bomb-proof would be okay if you needed to upgrade the drivers at a later date. Will blow your Hartke away-just get a mate to help you with the stairs though....[/quote] I agree, bomb proof and they punch way above their perceived value. For £100 you can't go wrong... so long as it all pretty much works but you can expect/forgive the odd scratchy pot etc.

The metal studs on the corners of trouser pockets/joints have been far worse offenders for me (never wear a belt for the very reason it mashes your bass up), I cut all of my studs out with a pair of wire cutters (Levis jeans are the worst offenders).

re the OP bass. I'd always have a fear that if this thing has sat for 25 years completely untouched and unplayed that the fingerboard wood might dry out. I have no experience of an untouched 25 year old bass upon which to base that observation but I have picked up the odd bass that has been left unloved for a year or two and the fingerboards can have suffered due to the lack of care or even just oil from your fingers/hands! Just a thought.

I wondered if any BCers were also Warwick forum members and if they have found the site down? I only have the home PC as a means to access the site and I don't know if it is me or the site that has the problem!
