Another reason to love Warmoth licensed bodies. They always rout the pickups tight and drill through to the cavity.

[quote name='MoonBassAlpha' timestamp='1378154746' post='2196470'] Another Sessionette 4x10 here too. Did me for years, only just loud enough though for the band I was in at the time, but not too heavy either. They've got a very quiet preamp and might be good in to a class d power amp. [/quote] That one used to be mine right there!! Before that I had a Carlsboro Cobra 90 head and a very DIY looking 1x15"

[quote name='stu_g' timestamp='1377976634' post='2194361'] i had a session 100 4x10 [/quote] snap I loved it - I sold it to Moonbasealpha

Try these: [url="http://www.variohm.com/variohmdatasheets/index.php?mid=65"]http://www.variohm.c...ndex.php?mid=65[/url] The JD model knobs look exactly the same to me

Why not buy them straight from Sadowsky in the states http://www.sadowsky.com/store/sadowsky-bass-knob.html

[quote name='ratman' timestamp='1382465797' post='2252556'] I was told by a tech that I probably have a logrithmic pot, and that it may work more evenly if I changed it to a linear pot. [/quote] That is a fair point

[quote name='thebrig' timestamp='1382454554' post='2252341'] Those of you who are gettng a lot of range, have they been modified in any way? [/quote] My JV-P not modified at all andthe tone knob has a massive range. My green warmoth made myself - i used an orange drop .047mf capacitor in it - it has massive range My yellow warmoth has a John East P-retro in it but the passive tone knob has massive range

Does anyone here have an Eastwood Airline Map 34? I got looking at the Eastwood website this morning and am taken by this bass - it looks like a prop for a Gerry Anderson puppet feature. The spec says it has a chambered mahogany body. Mahogany is usually heavy but of course chambered bodies are naturally light. If anybody has one could they tell me how much one might weigh, what the balance is like and what kind of neck profile they have, please?

On all 3 of my Ps there is an enormous difference in tone between each end of the knob's movement with everything in between on the way. Even with flats! You've either got the wrong capacitor or no capictor in there.

[quote name='CamdenRob' timestamp='1382447647' post='2252224'] I have a red bass too... no young ladies come up to me.... maybe I need a hat.... [/quote] I used to have a red bass and got no interest from the ladies. Since changing to a yellow bass I find I am beating them off with it.

I so wish I hadn't visited Eastwood guitar's website now. Why do I do this to myself? i am trying to justify not spending the £679 on one of those Thunderbirds props.......and I can't. I'm gonna be very poor very soon.

[quote name='gjones' timestamp='1382446601' post='2252201'] She was obviously only trying to make conversation with you so you could ask her for her number.........and you blew it! Twice!!!!!!!! [/quote] next year will it be third time lucky?

Eastwood Classic4 ftw [url="http://www.eastwoodguitars.co.uk/"]http://www.eastwoodguitars.co.uk/[/url] Actually almost any of the Eastwood basses....I'd love an Airline4 - it loioks like something out of Thunderbirds - God I want one:

I just read a bit of it on Amazon. I am appalled that Morrissey seems to have used American spellings for words such as centre, glamour and colour. Disappointing.

[quote name='CamdenRob' timestamp='1382356870' post='2251039'] The amount of times I turn up for a jam and the guitarist has written a bunch of stuff that doesn't conform to any structure or key signature, "Who needs theory when it sounds cool man"... ... Coincidentally these are also the bands that only want you to play root notes.... [/quote] We do a lot like that but rarely stick to roots.....our guitarist often 'tries' to communicate with theory...last night he was trying to work out which key a new middle8 is in...I said that it doesn't really have a key and he conceded defeat...so what key would a passage that went D,up to A, up to Bb,down to D#, upto A, down to C#, up to G, down to D through F and E be in???? whoops I've just given away our latest middle8..

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1382280799' post='2250011'] I can hear the tune in my head. I then work out how to play it on whatever instrument I'm currently using. [/quote] What he said.....unless the tune is a rhythm and the instrument is drums - in which case I haven't got a hope in hell

[quote name='xgsjx' timestamp='1382215753' post='2249493'] Yakima do a roof rack. [/quote] Yakima are not officially imported into UK and their US website no longer sells feet for the GT86/BRZ/FR-S [quote name='xgsjx' timestamp='1382215753' post='2249493'] You can then get a roof box big enough for the cab...[/quote] I very much doubt it No - it goes in through the door with the back seats folded - that'll do me. I'll just have to make sure I don't have to use it on nights when i take the kids back to their Mum's ...that does seem to happen from time to time

"When using a pick you should only use down strokes" - advice given to me when I first started to play....I tried for years but realised it was bollocks - I play only with fingers now so it was irrelevant anyway

I did some research today at Steven Eagell in MK. My S12T refused to get into the boot however it was simple to put it in through the door onto the folded down rear seat. The only thing stopping me ordering one now is the wait for my house sale to complete.......expected completion date is next Friday - I can't believe the self control I have exercised in actually waiting until that is done before ordering... Can't fit a towbar to the GT86 in UK

[quote name='umcoo' timestamp='1382116602' post='2248288'] Looks good Twigman....what will it be powering? [/quote] Just a tuner, a chorus and a compressor - a tiny board

[quote name='Sibob' timestamp='1382109336' post='2248163'] Ummm, but what what if you need to charge it overseas? :-/ Si [/quote] Firstly, we only go for one or two gigs at a time. when I say I wouldn't need to take a UK to EU converter I meant to the gig. I always have one in my hotel to charge my phone and my toothbrush. So the pedals can be recharged in the hotel and there's less to take to the venue.(and remember to take back to the hotel after ) Not all EU converters plug securely into some of the plugboards provided at venues for mains power. Twice I have had the mains power to my pedals disconnect during gigs.

It has arrived and is charging on my desk via my laptop.

[quote name='Telebass' timestamp='1382027163' post='2246895'] Me too! The horrors of renting... [/quote] yehbut I own my house - I have no excuse it was there when I moved in over 2 years ago and I just haven't got around to changing it (i wanna put in a wood floor)

[quote name='Lowender' timestamp='1382023379' post='2246809'] Every musician should play some drums. [/quote] never going to happen, It took me years to be able to rub my tummy and tap my head.....getting my arms and legs bashing out rhythms on a kit just ain't gonna happen EVER...

[quote name='Telebass' timestamp='1382024215' post='2246823'] Here they all are! [attachment=146303:DSCF1623.JPG] [/quote] OMG you have the same carpet as me......I hate it.
