[/quote] Looking forward to trying this on Tuesday bud. I'll stick it in my signal chain in place of the GR and see if it lives up to your hype

Checkout Miloopa as well. Bond is a genius on bass. If you search 'Bond on bass' on YouTube, or look back through this thread you'll find some stuff. I'm in the studio doing an EP between 12th and 18th Feb so ask in a few weeks there are some bad demo recordings at www.myspace.com/ourhelicalmind but they ate lacking much of the 'sub' sound (which the new recordings won't lack). £225 is a good price. Hot Rox usually have them in stock around the corner from me and the have an online store.

The MP-201 is amazing. It works with most pedals as an expression pedal, but can be used as an LFO (and envelope generator with the V2 firmware upgrade) with any pedals that work off CV... And to be honest there arnt many pedal builders that use CV. It's an amazing bit of kit, and to be honest I only touch the surface, using 4 presets out of 99. Being able to change 4 parameters with one pedal is pretty special though.

Tbh, the Moog one is the only one worth using for live applications as others I've seen don't have the flexibilty to be controlled like the Moog one does. Pair it with a Moog MP-201 for more LPF fun that you know what to do with. If your near Nottingham this Friday let me know as I'll be using mine live.

Welcome to Basschat bud. Hopefully you'll find a wealth of info here. Try the Theory & Technique forum in regards to the 12 bar blues walking lines! Shep

Been a few tweaks to my board... The Moogerfooger Freqbox has gone, in it's place is a Digitech Whammy IV plus a Boss NS-2 to get shot of some unwanted hiss. Few changes to the signal path as well. All good. Pics soon Shep

It's not a huge jump. But noticable within my rather intricate effects setup. I'd just be interested to see if blending in the dry signal would smooth that out.

Been using mine for a while now. Best filter I've used. I'd like to try the GR/2 though for the blend and I find the GR does boost the signal volume a tiny bit.

I am advised we shall be gracing the stage little after 11. The doors are at 9 and the night apparently gets busy from 10-10:30. We Shoul therefore be on around 11 and then DJ's will take over until 3am (long after I'm already home and tucked up in bed!) Shep

Could be the foot switch. Mine had a funny one when I got it. It worked perfectly, then all of a sudden it seemed as though it wouldn't go on or off. Having to press the foot switch 4 or 5 times for the pedal to engage. Obviously I knew there was power to it as the mode selector light was on still… If that doesn't illuminate as well then you can ignore everything I've just said

Only a week away folks!

Indeed. He even moded the circuit board where the resistor sits to be a socket and included a range of other resistors... So if I'm not happy with the gain I pop in another resistor and change the gain myself. Amazing bit of work

Got this back from Max today. Perfect. The small boost has worked perfectly. Very happy

[quote name='DanOwens' post='1104978' date='Jan 27 2011, 12:49 PM']That bridge is beautiful on the body. The whole thing is a careful balance between taste and ostentatiousness. Very nice, Shep![/quote] Agreed. To be honest I was never a fan of Gold hardware, but Bernie called me and said he had an idea and it was going to look the nuts compared to all black if I'd 'allow' him to do it. The result is the stripping of 2 full sets of hardware... Which means he has a reverse set (Gold machine heads with black screws, reverse of the bridge etc) sat waiting for another 6 string. On the body wood I think the contrast is fantastic

[quote name='deksawyer' post='1105046' date='Jan 27 2011, 01:39 PM']So, you've had 2 high end basses delivered over the last couple of months, why don't you give us a breakdown on the differences, the good, the bad and which one you ultimately prefer and why..... I don't know the cost of either bass (PM me the cost of the GB as I'm intrigued) but how do they stack up against one another? Cheers D. Ps you should see how low the action is on my ACG btw!! Pps both your new basses are amazing in my view.[/quote] Cheers dude, I'll drop you a PM shortly. As for differneces I intend to do a write up on a comparisson of all 3 of my basses (as my Roscoe Fretless is actually more 'High End' than the RIM in terms of monetary cast) and shall do so in my Gear Porn thread. I am holding off on this for a few weeks at least though as when you get a brand new instrument its easy to get carried away with how 'perfect' it its. I think I need to give it a bit of time, then go back to playing the others etc etc. Gimme a couple of weeks and I'll be detailed about it. Shep

[quote name='Dread Bass' post='1104499' date='Jan 26 2011, 10:38 PM']HOLY f*** nice one Shep[/quote] Yeah man it's a monster. I appreciate it kinda points the wrong way for you... But when your back in Notts lemme know and you'll have to check her out. I think I once said that I'd never find a bass with a better, more solid sounding low B than my old Overwater Evo. It's taken a while but the crown has moved to this Spitfire. Even compared to other GB's I've played, this low B is monsterous.

[quote name='Oakbear' post='1099750' date='Jan 23 2011, 03:47 PM']Very nice geezer! Gold's not normally my bag, but that combo actually looks ace. And very interested about the neck finish....[/quote] I might let you try it if you ask nicely Had it less than a week. 2nd gig with it tomorrow night. Its bloody awesome!

Why not give Max & SFX a shout. I'm sure he'll inspect it. His repair rates are VERY reasonable compared to scrapping an expensive pedal

[quote name='EBS_freak' post='1101745' date='Jan 25 2011, 09:01 AM']Is it still love Chris?? More pics of basses at the new for sale section at [url="http://www.gbguitars.co.uk/gb_sales.asp"]http://www.gbguitars.co.uk/gb_sales.asp[/url][/quote] It is mate. Blown away. Trying to learn to play softly so I can keep the action this low and not get lots of rattle as I'm a heavy player... but finding the benfits of low action and a gentle touch. Love it. Now onto the fretless 6

Sold my Comfort Strapp to Gaf. Paid immediately. All good. Cheers dude Shep

Another quick and easy trade with Tom. No worries. Top bloke. Cheers Shep
