Recently changed some strings (D'addario Pro Steels) as they sounded pretty dead and dull on my Corvette. I put them on my old Ibanez as they needed some newer strings on them and lo and behold they sound bright and new! So i tried it with some Ernie Balls I'd taken off the corvette previously and they sound like they have plenty of life left too!
Could this be a problem with my Warwick? Struggling to think why this might be... -
That is gorgeous!

Played a gig with the previous lead singer (note previous) at a local venue. When we picked him up he was already drinking, but said it was only his second can (we later found out it was a few more than that at that point). In the car ride over he was struggling to remember the lyrics to some songs and we had to go over them with him, but he seemed ok. At this point we told him to stop drinking and he agreed he would. We got to the venue and the promoter had left a couple of crates to split between the bands, so we all had a couple except the singer (well, we thought ) and started to soundcheck. Anyway the singer kept on drinking all the way through the night behind our backs. When it came to us playing he was so pissed he could barely stand up and talk or sing... We ended up doing a very short set, as we were getting shouts of "next band". We then basically told him to do one and he was out of the band, at which point he somersaulted over the bar (we still can't work out why) and was hauled out by the bouncers.
Got a call the next morning from his girlfriend. The singer was in hospital after throwing himself in front of car the night before, as he thought we all hated him because we kicked him out of the band.
Pretty bad gig as far as bad gigs go... -
Maple everytime. I always see the rosewood combo and would want something a bit different

[quote name='chuck_stones' post='1219782' date='May 4 2011, 12:51 PM']Hi there, couple of questions...
What's the power output on this (watts, Ohms)?
Can this be used to power a cab, such as an Ampeg 410HLF?
Cheers![/quote]
No mate, I think you'd need a power amp as well to power a cab as I think this is just a preamp. Albeit, a bloody good preamp -
Love your band and that video mate. Tour up north sometime please
-
As a few people our saying, why do they insist on that headstock?! It'll be down to some subtle nuance in tone or something, but to me looks bloody daft

We need guys like Jeff. He's a dude.[/quote]
You sir, are a genius -
Buck Rogers by Feeder. Ridiculously complicated and intricate bass line, took me months

Nice one Tom. Top guy

[quote name='Ou7shined' post='1198603' date='Apr 13 2011, 07:46 PM']This bass must be purdy small if it can't fit a 3 in it. [/quote]
My thoughts exactly. Pretty small preamps anyways -
Well if the Aguilar OBP3 doesnt fit, the OBP2 is designed for tighter control cavities

Do they come with the mic stand clips and cases/boxes?

[quote name='waynepunkdude' post='1196759' date='Apr 12 2011, 01:21 PM']I think my point is the Korg is more than good enough for most bass players of course some people with different set ups may need the Peterson but I'd say 99% don't.[/quote]
Agreed. A Peterson is definitely something I could live without. However the advice about just getting a good floor tuner sounds good -
[quote name='sime17' post='1196387' date='Apr 11 2011, 11:46 PM']Tho I agree, I find it mildly ironic that your avatar looks like Jeff Berlin On the international irony scale that's Alannis-Morrissette, fairly low and exponentially less severe than a Morrissey. The subtle similarity of those names is more ironic, for instance.[/quote]
The international irony scale. I like that. I don't think I'll ever be able to look at my Avatar again without thinking of Jeff Berlin Much like looking at the Fedex logo and not being able to see the "hidden" arrow. I May have to find a different picture of Randy... -
Oh good lord! How much is that worth?!

No offence, but I find nearly all the Dean stuff a bit lame. -
[quote name='bubinga5' post='1196007' date='Apr 11 2011, 05:47 PM']when you say easily...i take it your playing very hard...or is the string very worn?? dont think ive ever even come close breaking a string..in fact even if i pulled really hard on a string it wouldnt break?[/quote]
My thoughts exactly -
[quote name='BigRedX' post='1195680' date='Apr 11 2011, 01:24 PM']The Behringer rack tuner won't track low notes properly. It's fine for guitar (given the normal limitations of Behringer kit - ie you bin it when it eventually breaks) but it will struggle to recognise the A and E (and lower) strings on a bass.
If you have the cash the best rack tuner is the [url="http://www.petersontuners.com/index.cfm?category=73&sub=66"]Peterson Strobo Rack[/url].[/quote]
Well that's the Behringer out indefinitely. The Peterson is a bit out of my price range, so looks like the Korg would be the best choice for me -
[quote name='cetera' post='1195618' date='Apr 11 2011, 12:44 PM']Dont.... just DON'T....[/quote]
Care to divulge? I'm looking into rack tuners as well so all advice would be great.
I've seen that Fender do a rackmount tuner as well, anyone had experience of this? -
Calling warwickhunt or Bigthumb...

I absolutely love your Pedulla. Top job on that mate.
Nice collection as too
