  1. Available in a branch near you!
  2. I bought a new Comfort Strapp the other day and having a medium that's a little on the long side I went for a short one. Mistake. This strap will only work out if you are 1. A skinny/wiry/lean racing snake. AND 2. Play with your bass high. Half price £15 or swop for a Medium. It's been slightly trimmed around the inner two holes to allow Schaller straplocks fitted to the outer holes enough room to engage. Peter
  3. I met Alan the other night. A fine guy to deal with and an awsome player. How's the fretless Alan?
  4. Now I have my Overwater to complement the Harlot I find myself having to tweek to get it to sit well in the mix - loadsa extra mids basically. I miss the filter pre and thought about modding the Overwater (can't really afford to) but on looking into the control cavity it seems almost sacrilegious to interfere in there
  5. [quote]replace perfectly good Aguilar circuits with funny filter things[/quote] Try one Marcus, read the hype, its justified. Takes a little aquaintance but once bitten, crafting tone is always better than tweeking it. All imo of course.
  6. Yep, 3 x GS112's'd be 2.7 Ohms, 900 watts and they'd be resaleable, stackable and still a 1 handed carry (each). Can you borrow one and give it a try? I'm a bit too far away methinks. Oh and they'd definately 'work' too. In fact I always think 2 x GS112's are more than the sum, wonder what 3'd be like
  7. Don't they just look great. I love mine and I'm currently thinking I may not have to sell it after all which is pleasing me no end.
  8. Loverly looking bass but nowt like a Stingray
  9. I've used some neophrene with good results. Stuff that keeps it restitution is good.
  10. I play like a bloke, who plays very lightly. Haven't voted as there doesn't seem to be a catagory for this
  11. Thank you that is a real beaut. £30? Seriously, all original I seriously reckon over £2k would be a realistic selling price.
  12. Bad news I'm afraid, with the Seymour Duncan the devaluing is immense. I'll give you £20 for the bass and take the original pup off your hands for a fiver. Can't be fairer than that. In seriousness. I'd say over 2K, definately, and pics would be nice.
  13. [quote]Should have used the Overwater comfort strap,[/quote] Is it only me that bridles at 'Should have....' statements. I had an Overwater comfort strap and couldn't stand it! Comfort Strapps are far superior imo. One is now fitted to my very fine Overwater bass All the elastic on the Overwater strap was in one piece in front of the padded section and my bass neck was doing nodding donkey impressions. For me a very significant design flaw.
  14. Many thanks This tells me that the pedal isn't AC supplied at all, as I suspected, it's DC like any other just a 3.5mm jack [url="http://www.bassic.co.uk/"]http://www.bassic.co.uk/[/url] Pictures 5 and 6 would be the appropriate connectors, exactly the same as my Small Clone then. Putting AC at the top of the pedal only serves to confuse. Peter
  15. There's been some nice complete basses going on here for not a lot more than that eBay listing
  16. Hiya I have a mate who has a US Electroharmonix Bassballs that he's trying to source a power supply for. If you go here you will see a US, NYC Bassballs with quite clearly a standard 9v positive tip power supply. [url="http://www.ehx.com/products/bassballs"]http://www.ehx.com/products/bassballs[/url] i.e. But, a big but, his bassballs looks like this: Which seems to indicate an AC power supply. I haven't actually seen the pedal but it seems to have the usual 3.5 mm EHX socket. So does anyone know if this really is an AC supplied pedal. EHX aren't answering emails on this. I find the very idea of an AC supplied pedal a bit odd. If it truly is AC supplied where does one actually get a PSU for the beast. Help here would be greatly appreciated. Peter
  17. I'm thinking that I understand your appreciation Matte, looking at your avatar Marks out of ten for ascetics hmm.... not a hug amount from me but it's Kev's bass and it'll hopefully suit a purpose.
  18. I use a LMII and 2 x GS112's (one NT) and I'm totally happy. In terms of lightness I would argue that if the cabs are a one handed carry how much lighter do they actually need to be?
  19. You know, a year or so ago this wouldn't have lasted 10 minutes. Imo these amps are still as good as ever and pretty much as good as anything out there. Bump
  20. This guy the salesman, he's just a bloke with issues. Move on and deal with somewhere else. Don't let his stuff get to you. Leave it with him.
  21. I think that Alan at ACG would be my 1st choice (I don't really think this, I know this) but then again 1000 to 1200 euros isn't going to get you far with any custom bass. Just a reflection on the fact that a US Fender, MM or Rickenbacker will cost you more so custom may be pushing it a bit. ACG would be perhaps more reasonable than many. Hiya Russ. I'm assuming you mean me? Thanks. A young lad came round this eve to pick up the fretless - totally awsome player, Overwater owner too.

  22. Is that your Motor Anndra? I'd tell ya wimmin tae get off Nice Ray there!
  23. Another transaction with Paulo painlessly completed Peter
  24. [quote]I don't suppose the fact that the bass is not an active one makes a difference does it?[/quote] That could be your answer. Aren't these pickups normally used just with the Fender 18v active pre-amp?
  25. I'd have said that a good proportion of 5 stringers are 35" nowadays. Anyone care to comment?
