    The finish on your cover drive pedal is amazing.

    Just wanted to say I've had one of these from new and used it for practice most weeks and gigged it at pubs and smaller venues. Never had it serviced and it still sounds amazing. Not once has it let me down. Buy with confidence.

    Have a bump.

    Straight 1/4" effects connectors

    Hi all,

    I'm after some straight 1/4" jack male to male connectors for squeezing my pedals together a bit tighter. I've seen a planet waves one which is staggered but I'm really after straight connectors, a little like this:



    That's an ernie ball one which is on [url="http://www.stringsdirect.co.uk/products/4386-ernie_ball_male_male_connector_6329_"]stringsdirect.co.uk[/url] for £6.99. That seems a little steep for what it is but since it's the only one I can find i was hoping someone could point me in the right direction or give me an alternitive.

    Thanks, Alex.

    Orange Bass Terror

    The Guitarist in my band got a Tiny Terror and within a week he had to take it back to GAK for a replacement. It does sound fantastic though. If the bass version turns out to be more reliable then I well be very tempted.

    What's the last bassline you learned?

    [quote name='james_d' post='440178' date='Mar 20 2009, 12:04 PM']Anyone else reckon muse's bassist is really good and makes awesome basslines.[/quote]

    He's good, that's for sure. I'd like to know how many of their bass lines he writes and how many Bellamy writes. Anyone know?

    I've got a few to learn this weekend:
    Dani California - RHCP
    I Bet That You Lood Good On The Dancefloor - Arctic Monkeys
    Toxic - Britney Spears
    I'm Yours - Jason Mraz

    [quote name='vintage_ben' post='439991' date='Mar 20 2009, 08:36 AM']Interesting comments, clearly many have issues with the shop and there seem to be a mix of constructive and unconstructive ones. Giving the weight to the later, I'm removing my post for risk of further inflaming the situation.[/quote]

    That's why you can't see his post.

    EDIT: beat me too it!

    Trace Manual and Year ?????

    in Amps and Cabs

    Posted

    I emailed Trace regarding the age of my Series 6 a while ago, mine didn't have a serial number to go by so they suggested popping the cover off have having a look for date marked pots/circuit board/inspection sticker..... I think this is probably the easiest and quickest way of finding the age if you're unsure, it worked for me. Trace may also have the manual in pdf they can send you? Worth an ask at any rate, they can only say no.

    I don't mind Vintage and Rare, they offer a good service to a particular part of market. In the past I've thought of it like this: just because I drive a car doesn't mean i can afford or want a vintage Bentley, sure it would be nice but there's no way i can afford it. I apply this to the basses and guitars I buy.

    EDIT:
    As for selling your bass via shops I think you have to take into account one of the things you pay for is exposure, how many people walk into V&R knowing that there might be something special in there? I know I have in the past and will do again. It's like eBay, sure the fees are high, but your listing has the potential to be viewed by millions of people. Only shops like V&R have the ability to filter that down to those who can afford the asking price. That, im my opinion, is one of their main advantages and one of the things the shop takes a cut for.
