  1. [quote name='RhysP' post='1124024' date='Feb 11 2011, 04:39 PM']Matt, Dug Pinnick has used a few different set-ups over the years, so it depends what sort of era you're thinking of. The earlier albums he was running an SVT stack for the bass end & using Fender Twin guitar amps for the high end, splitting the frequencies from his basses (mainly a Hamer 12 string & a Fender Jazz at the time) with a crossover. This is the rig he was using when they played St. Davids Hall in 1989 (the "Gretchen goes to Nebraska" tour) & the sound was f***ing immense! Here's some info on his recent set-up: [url="http://www.12stringbass.net/master.htm?http://www.12stringbass.net/DougsRig.htm"]http://www.12stringbass.net/master.htm?htt...et/DougsRig.htm[/url][/quote] Hello mate and I hope all is well with you. Thanks so much for the info. Maybe a little extreme for what I want but fascinating stuff and I am sure ideas will spring from here. Thanks. What are you up to these days? Hopefully see you around. Take care bud.
  2. I wonder if anyone can help me please? Apart from loving these guys as bass players, I also really love their sound. Does anyone have an information on how they get their sound? I figure there is some overdrive / distortion and chorus plus I just can't figure out what else they may have in the loop. Any help and advice would be appreciated. Cheers folks
  3. Fair enough mate. I use a Les Paul in the studio and it is stunning, so understand. Sorry for hijacking this thread and I promise to stay off unless I can get the money of course. Good luck again.

  5. [quote name='MrWalker' post='1097872' date='Jan 21 2011, 05:53 PM']Received my Yamaha TRB6 Series I from Matt today. A gorgous instrument at a great price, and Matt was a pleasure to deal with all the way. Honest and prompt communication and friendly all the way. The bass was very well packaged and was just as Matt had described it. Even threw in a couple of freebies! So thanks for a great bass and a very pleasant and easy transaction, Matt! Maybe we'll do business again in the future, who knows? ;-) Good luck with your band and recording work! Cheers, Jon[/quote] Jon, it has been so great dealing with you. The whole transaction has been an utter pleasure and I really hope we do business again one day. Enjoy the bass bass and please keep us up to date with any gigs or recording you do with it. Thank you and take care. Cheers, Matt
  6. [quote name='MrWalker' post='1097875' date='Jan 21 2011, 05:57 PM']Thank you, Matt! I just received the bass and it's a pleasure to play and hold! Really love it, and it plays like butter! Thanks for a great and easy transaction, too!! Cheers, Jon-Inge[/quote] You are very welcome my friend and thank you too, you have been nothing but a gentleman and a star. Look forward to catching up again and take care. Cheers, Matt
  7. Just sold my Yamaha TRB6 to Jon and the transaction has been an absolute pleasure. The communication was wonderful and friendly and he also sorted out the collection from Norway. The bank transfer was on time and hassle free. Deal with Jon with complete confidence. Thank you mate and enjoy the bass as much as I did.
  8. [quote name='Stag' post='1088718' date='Jan 13 2011, 10:59 PM']Ahhhh, a happy ending Lovely bass... first 6er on here ive been genuinely tempted by[/quote] A happy ending indeed mate and yes, a lovely bass which has served me well. Glad it's going to a good home
  9. [quote name='MrWalker' post='1088305' date='Jan 13 2011, 05:05 PM']Looking forward to it, Matt! I've owned one of these before, but it was beat up and had a lot of bruising, so when I was offered a good price I sold it. But have missed it.... so looking forward to getting a nicer and better looking version of it back! Nice doing business with you, Matt! Good luck with your projects! Cheers, Jon[/quote] And you too mate. I will leave you feedback tomorrow. Just to let you know, I have PM'd you with all the dimensions for transit. Speak soon and take care.
  10. This bass is now sold to Jon. Thanks Jon and enjoy my friend
  11. [quote name='walbassist' post='1085400' date='Jan 11 2011, 12:48 PM']That is correct.[/quote] Thanks for that and good luck with the sale for a beautiful bass.
  12. Just a quick question if you don't mind. Did you say that the string spacing on this bass is 16mm?
  13. This bass is currently on hold pending the usual. Wish me luck
  14. [quote name='MrWalker' post='1082068' date='Jan 8 2011, 01:35 PM']Oooooo what a price! This happens to be the one bass that got away. I need to check my finances, I'm in the market for a 6-string... but was planning on spending a little more time. But I loved my old Yamaha TRB-6 and still miss it from time to time. Any issues with this one? And... I'm in Norway... :-/ Don't know how or if shipping could be arranged... if we went further with a possible deal?[/quote] No issues with this what so ever Mr Walker. It is well looked after and set up regularly and kept in a flight case in a clean environment. I have no problems shipping to the wonderful Norway either. I have some good friends there, so it would be nice for the bass to go to a good home. Let me know and hopefully we can do a deal. Take care and speak soon. Cheers, Matt
  15. [quote name='Stag' post='1081852' date='Jan 8 2011, 10:12 AM']Im staggered that this is still here... If i had the cash id be all over this! Lovely 6-er.[/quote] Thanks mate I am assuming that after the Xmas season money is a little tight, which I totally appreciate. Let's hope someone fancies this beauty soon and it finds the home it deserves
  16. [quote name='lowdown' post='1079982' date='Jan 6 2011, 03:32 PM']Just done some business with Matt. Nice and easy as it should be. Well packaged and quick postage. You wont go wrong dealing with Matt. Garry[/quote] Thanks a lot Garry and likewise mate
  17. Garry bought a Sony Mini-disc player off me and the whole transaction was very smooth and easy. A great person to deal with. Thanks mate. Cheers, Matt
  18. [quote name='JensWest' post='1078715' date='Jan 5 2011, 04:02 PM']Where and when's it built?[/quote] It is Japanese built and it would have been built in the mid 1990's. I hope that helps and if you need any more information, just ask
  19. I have Dingwall lust again and need the money, so come on folks make yourself happy and me too, and buy this little beauty
