  1. If it's in reasonable condition and not been bullied, sounds like a good deal to me
  2. OOps! You wanna see me walk with my sp@zzy leg !! Now thats a deranged puppet Constantly looking for the best place to land and avoid dogsh*t when walking, ready for my next tumble!!! Yeah I wondered why the bassist was at the front instead of squashed behind the hi hats.... Edit: Why am I worried? Just realised I've got the perfect excuse! I'm old!!!!
  3. I'm sorry but to me the bassist looks like a puppet with a couple of strings cut. Not my cuppa...
  4. Awesome stuff matey can't fault that. (apart from camera op. being pissed and unsteady ) Well done, you get any further than wales?
  5. [quote name='Alien' post='518892' date='Jun 19 2009, 09:55 PM']Areas of circles isn't critical when comparing one driver against another, but it is important to realise that you do need [i]some kind[/i] of square measurement, since a speaker cone has a surface area (ie 2 dimensions, not just the 1 you've used). If you say that a 4x10 is equivalent to 10 x 10 x 4 = 400 and that a 1x15 is equivalent to 15 x 15 x 1 = 225 then you'd be on the right track. Thing is, you then need to bring in the third dimension (ie how much air the speakers move). Assuming the 10's you're using have an Xmax of 4mm (which is more than most of them have) then you're looking at a displacement of 10 x 10 x 4 x 4 = 1600 The 3015LF has an Xmax of 9.6mm, which gives you 15 x 15 x 9.6 x 1 = 2160. 3015LF wins, hands down.

I'll persevere...
  6. Aaron Armstrong did the pickups for my Overwater perception, I believe he does the bulk of their standard stuff, unless an alternative is specified. (But- believe it or not- I have been wrong before!!!) Andy Edit I have a Kent Armstrong mm hubucker ready to go in my self build project when I get some spare time...

  9. [quote name='iamapirate' post='512328' date='Jun 12 2009, 05:44 PM']Oh that is just SO not fair! How much did that set you back? and to answer the topic - get a fender american j-bass - best bass I ever bought (the only bass I've ever bought - my first was given to me and I've only ever own'd 2). I tried out almost every bass in GAK before settling on the j-bass... and i play quite a bit of slap. Seriously, with new strings... oooh... i did a man wee thinking of it.... [/quote] Well i'm missing a left leg... +100 Pirate? ooooh meeeooooowwwww!!!

  11. [quote name='yorick' post='510881' date='Jun 11 2009, 09:12 AM']In what context????? [/quote] Dust off your Bass when wearing white jeans, before a gig. Don't want to look a tw@t in front of the girlies with mucky jeans. or...
  12. Always give an extra wipe just in case...(particularly when wearing white ones)
  13. Think I got hit for VAT + 8% import duty when I ordered a pup and pre amp from the states for my project. Or you could try this [url="http://customs.hmrc.gov.uk/channelsPortalWebApp/channelsPortalWebApp.portal?_nfpb=true&_pageLabel=pageVAT_ShowContent&id=HMCE_CL_000230&propertyType=document#P177_21685"]http://customs.hmrc.gov.uk/channelsPortalW...ment#P177_21685[/url] but I was dribbling after 10 mins.....
  14. ...and the moderator is... [attachment=26786:ned.jpg]
  15. Pick up and pre amp I ordered from states took six weeks and most of that was spent in UK customs, Only started moving after I gave seller a couple of pokes and he poked the customs...
  16. Bet the flight was uncomfortable with that stashed in the body cavity...
  17. Linkin Park seem to do ok and some of their basslines are just 4 full notes Keep it simple and build it up. Go for it! You've Got To Andy
  18. [quote name='WinterMute' post='503619' date='Jun 2 2009, 10:23 AM']"Impact maintenance" as my dad used to call it!

  20. [quote name='Clarky' post='500663' date='May 29 2009, 09:37 AM']I have never tried single saddle bridges. The 'traditionalist' in me doesn't really like the look of them (I associate them with German weird-shaped furniture basses) plus - although they stop cross-talk between strings - I do wonder whether they have enough mass to anchor the strings properly.[/quote] Better? [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/hipshot_triple_lock_down_bridge.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/hipshot_triple_lock_down_bridge.htm[/url] bloody dear though! Do you ground all or just one, er while i'm here...
  21. Good luck matey sounds excellent, will try to catch it. No improptu solo's though! (Ahh sod it why not ) Andy
  22. All my big bruv's fault when he brought home Fragile by Yes. No one but us in the house mum and dads 'stereogram' turned up almost full, and a whole world away from 'totp' (Wistful voice)Why are the seventies so far away...
  23. [quote name='stingrayfan' post='495816' date='May 23 2009, 09:39 AM']Second hand is much much better way to go at the mo - you'll get one at a good price. Under £600 maybe.[/quote] Wouldn't sell mine for £600 or less. Faaaarrr tooooo niiiiccceeee
