  1. I've 2 Markbass LM amps. A Tube 500 and a LMII. I don't use them for home practice as I've a TC Electronics BG250 1x15 combo for that. I have set up my MB amps at home at low volume and the fan noise is a bit annoying. Personally I don't see it as a problem because I'm expecting them to operate out of their natural environment imo. There're also the benefit that the TC amp has a aux in and a headphone out. Horses for courses in my opinion. Of course you may have a particular amp problem but if you've tried several fans it doesn't sound like it. Peter
  2. Modulus Flea eh Marcus, the circle goes around
  3. I'm not usually a Fender fan but that looks lovely. Hope it works out for you.
  4. [quote name='2elliot' timestamp='1488629073' post='3250578'] Pm on it's way [/quote] And replied Peter
  5. Thanks for moving the post. I didn't think it was weird or wonderful
  6. Just spotted on eBay. 272554717898 A 34" scale TRB5 in lovely condition, good price and 'make an offer'. Collection only 😒 Or I'd be seriously tempted. He's also selling a Ken Smith and an Xotic. Anyone on here? Peter
  7. That is very nice.
  8. [quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1488480225' post='3249360'] Always found the bass lines jumped out at me. Loved Cockney Rebel, but this one has always sounded great to me. [media]http://youtu.be/DohRa9lsx0Q[/media] Man, where can I get some flares like his! [/quote] If I had to vote for my influence when I started playing aged 40, that'd be it.I must relearn it, great bassline.
  9. Great pedal, best model, a classic flanger that'll do chorus. Reduced to £60 delivered to the UK. Still has warranty from purchase.
  10. [quote name='bonzodog' timestamp='1488471363' post='3249253'] Would have to agree with you on Geezer. I was listening to bands in late 70s early 80s without much interest in bass. Then i heard sabbaths first album and his sound and playing really hit me. May not be the most technical but his sound got me hooked on playing bass. Its a shame that i think that bass sound and style he had on first 3 or 4 albums disappeared on albums after that. [/quote] Yep, I joined the RN at that time and my interest in Sabbath declined with their own decline imo.
  11. This must have been done before I guess but this morning I was walking from work (yes nights) listening to my MP3 player and I realised what did it for me. I didn't actually know such a thing as a bass guitar existed or what it sounded like if I'm honest (am I the only one?) as I was just a spotty 15 year old. Geezer Butler did it for me and he still does actually. Bloody awesome 47 years later.
  12. Bump to the top for this superb pedal. https://youtu.be/MQYlPjw8YOw
  13. Bump for a photo of the best Boss flanger (imo).
  14. Bump for a photo of the mighty Ola Chorus.
  15. [size=4]I've got a Boss BF-2 [font=arial][color=#000000]Serial Number - 094300 (July 1981-black label) in great working condition​. I recently paid £90 for this from a dealer and it has two months warranty remaining.[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][color=#000000][font=arial]I've just got a Strymon Mobius which makes this great flanger redundant.[/font][/color][/size] [size=4][color=#000000][font=arial]Free UK [/font][/color][font=arial][color=#000000]delay. Located in kendal.[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font=arial][color=#000000]Peter[/color][/font][/size]
  16. I've only had this great pedal for 4 weeks. If it's so good then why am I selling it you may well ask? Because I love it, it's turned me on to Strymon so much I wanted to buy Mike's (SK8's) Strymon Orbit flanger too. Then I thought, heck just get a Strymon Mobius and I've gone down that very route. The Mobius covers both the Ola and the Orbit and much more besides so I'm selling the Ola for what it cost me, £150. That's about 1/2 new price. No box but I'll print off the instructions. In near perfect condition. Delivered to the UK for free or try in Kendal Peter
  17. If anyone is ever in Morecambe pop into Promenade Music and ask for Gary. A great selection of basses and a welcome assured. Peter
  18. This post had me tempted but I realise I'm more than happy with my LMII and LM Tube 500. In fact it just reinforced how good they are so thank you.
  19. So it nose dives, the A string buzzes and it's heavy. Remind me why I don't own a Fender. All the best with it though
  20. There's some interesting stuff coming out in here.
  21. [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1487098333' post='3237095'] Sorry, no. I'd never heard of him, and now having had a listen to a couple of his songs I know why. Not my kind of thing in the slightest. [/quote] I just wondered, with you being a Nottingham musician. Not everyone's cuppa for sure. Sunhouse 'Crazy on the Weekend' is one of my favourite albums but my taste in music is pretty wide:)
  22. That is lovely. Interest in Bogart basses (5 string unfortunately) most definitely registered. Peter
  23. Some good suggestions. A little fantasy does no harm BigRed, I'm a Gavin Clark fan, do you know the fella? Peter
  24. I was listening to some Tool today and I thought to myself, if I could swap places with any bassist it would be Justin Chancellor. The tone, the riffs and the music! Okay it's a fantasy and this 62 year old average bass player knows that. So, no 'clever' answers please. If you think it's pointless keep away, one word, a band present or past.
