  1. I've decided on keeping this bass indefinitely to be honest. It sounds great and there will be a time I do use it properly.. until then it'll sit where it is. Thanks for the offer though.
  2. Great stuff - anyone who's seen the original too will appreciate it even more so.
  3. Might be worth sticking an asking price on ?
  4. That website is loaded with porn.... bookmarked !
  5. That's fantastic, cheers dude.
  6. Hmm I never see other bassists in shops ! I'm always the only one there..
  7. For me the wiki is good for a couple of things (such as the amps section) but other than that I don't use it.
  8. It's got a humbucker at the bridge position - it's supposed to be bright and punchy !
  9. I saw that on eBay myself... wondered who the goon in the pic was .
  10. I've played a couple of these - they're interesting and certainly unique.
  11. I 'push flat' when i'm at home. Haven't had chance to try it live yet so couldn't say if I like it or not. I think it sounds pants on its own but it might be really good in the mix...
  12. [quote name='Merton' post='143883' date='Feb 20 2008, 06:11 PM']Being a pedant, that's not infinite. There are still maximum and minimum positions, therefore a finite number of in between positions, even if you're saying a 1 micron movement means a new position! [/quote] But then you go smaller than a micron .
  13. [quote name='Hit&Run' post='143877' date='Feb 20 2008, 05:58 PM']"The pickup can be 'wiped' through an infinite number of positions.." Hardly infinite! It would be interesting to hear how this bass sounds.[/quote] Strictly speaking it is infinite - there is no limit to the smallest movement possible to attain a new position. Sure it won't be noticeable but it is a fair claim.
  14. That's really... clever. But i'd rather just have a bass with 2 pickups .
  15. I've got a year old set of D'Addario Chromes on my Jazz, they suit it wonderfully and have that lovely thump without being totally devoid of higher frequencies. I tried some Thomastiks on tonyf's fretless Stingray and they were lovely - very flexible and reasonably low tension in comparison to the Chromes.
  16. Welcome back, hope things are going well. Are you still in a position to offer a cheeky discount to BassChatters ? I believe it was 5% ?
  17. I think you're the only person on here with a Klystron... what do you think of it ?
  18. It has been removed - dood check mods forum for details.
  19. G&L basses are pretty well known - they're Leo Fender's last venture. Have a look here for some history: [url="http://www.glguitars.com/"]http://www.glguitars.com/[/url]
  20. [quote name='OldGit' post='142726' date='Feb 18 2008, 08:46 PM']Did you get one? At £170 it could be a world beater [/quote] I've been lazy with reviews in the last few weeks so will wait until i've got more time ! There's an interesting twist to my current review bass..
  21. Should be ok then - I wouldn't (personally) gig it though.
  22. So bi-amping with your MAG basically ? Personally I wouldn't do it - you're still sending a bass signal to the guitar amp which wasn't built to handle the lows (could easily rip the speaker cones at decent volumes).
  23. I like the BBs but that looks horrid to me. It's like someone drunkenly played around in photoshop and then decided to put it into production too.
  24. Yep they've had a compressor added, along with the Electric Blue range. Ashdown initially did this same thing a year ago but seemed to drop it for a (I assume) a QC issue. Looks like they've cleared it up now.
  25. White perloid would look good there !
