As the title says, thinking of taking the plunge into the world of the EUB... If like to have a little tinker on one outside of the music shop setting so wondered if anyone local (Nottingham) had one and fancied lending me an hour of thier time. Anyone with a 5er would be of particular interest as having a 5 would allow me to slot into a set of material I'm currently playing... Shep

Few more live ones having just got all the shots back. Really happy with them

I play and own only 6ers. I play slap (I'm not great but do play slap) and having played them for a while I'm as fluent at slap on a 6 as I am on or 4 or 5, it about finding what works for you. My 3 basses all have the same scale and string spacing - 35" and 19mm. 19mm I wide on a 6, but it means the transition between a 4 and a 6 feels natural for finger and thumb placement for slap and pop.

Hiya and welcome to Basschat from a fellow midlander (Nottingham).

Sweeeeet! Every Shep needs a GB

[quote name='Doddy' post='1127398' date='Feb 14 2011, 06:17 PM']I use a Guyatone Phaser. It's really cool and diddy. To be honest,I don't think True Bypass is as important as some people make out. If it's a decent pedal,it'll usually have a good buffer.[/quote] I use the same one (little green one). It's very subtle on bass but doesn't effect the bottoms end at all. I really like it. I did try the EBS DPhaser though the other day and really liked it. It's a little more in your face with some strong resonance etc... But for what I do now I think it would suit me great. If you can find the Guyatone one on eBay etc though it's a stunning buy for the £30-40 they fetch.

Me rocking the EBS HD350 & Neo 212 at a gig last weekend! Great rig.

[quote name='cheddatom' post='1123667' date='Feb 11 2011, 11:07 AM']That looks ace shep! This is the only live shot I have of my board. It's not very good [/quote] It's a decent shot of you though. Huuuuge stage. Looks proper rock an roll.

A good digital SLR and a great eye for it is all you need. Was done with a Canon 500d an a couple of nice lenses... Rose is however, bloody good at what she does.

Maybe just the truss rod that needs adjusting. If the bridge saddles are all the way down and it's still high there must be a need alter the relief. As a total newboe I'd recommend taking it for a proper set up. £25 odd quid could be a very good investment.

Couple of cool shots from last Fridays gig... All taken by Rose Kasili. That 3rd ones a cracking advert for the Boss NS-2

Taken at last Fridays gig with my 2-piece. Pics are great, taken by the talented Miss Rose Kasili..

I also cut the VLE filter out completely. I have the same amp head for small gigs and while that suits the fretless honk I find it works against the lowend creating a distorted muddy low mid sound. Try turning VLE down to zero and use the regular EQ to out back in whatnot take out (VPF adds bass and treble but cuts mids). So maybe turn up the bass a little? Shep

[quote name='patch006' post='1117769' date='Feb 6 2011, 03:37 PM']Strong words, don't they have moderators on here!!!![/quote] Indeed they do. However if I deleted every post in the two threads discussing this sale that stated the seller, or buyer was anything but a sensible, genuine person there would be no thread left. Language has been 'reasonable' and as the situation looks to be resolving itself now I trust no more harsh words will be thrown around and we can all leave it at that... ... Or we'll break out the whoop-ass!

[quote name='harvey1-8' post='1116730' date='Feb 5 2011, 05:19 PM']How many plugs do you need to power that little lot?[/quote] 7. I could cut it down to 5 or 6 if spent some money on a few other power supply options, but I have no issues with the 7.

Thanks dude. A few sound snips of the effects from last night - [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?s=&showtopic=72012&view=findpost&p=1116543"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?s=&sho...t&p=1116543[/url] Bear in mind that we're only a 2 piece so if it's not drums then it coming from those pedals...

Couple of shots from last night off a mates camera. Had a pro photographer down who had some AWESOME pics of the gear as well which I'll get back [s]last[/s] next week... And from the Audience view

Thanks Si, your the man! A few snips from last night that friends took, not stunning, but through decent Hi Fi speakers you get a bit of the sub etc… [url="http://s61.photobucket.com/albums/h44/pantherairsoft/Our%20Helical%20Mind/?action=view&current=SAM_1325.mp4"]http://s61.photobucket.com/albums/h44/pant...nt=SAM_1325.mp4[/url] [url="http://s61.photobucket.com/albums/h44/pantherairsoft/Our%20Helical%20Mind/?action=view&current=SAM_1326.mp4"]http://s61.photobucket.com/albums/h44/pant...nt=SAM_1326.mp4[/url] [url="http://s61.photobucket.com/albums/h44/pantherairsoft/Our%20Helical%20Mind/?action=view&current=SAM_1330.mp4"]http://s61.photobucket.com/albums/h44/pant...nt=SAM_1330.mp4[/url] Shep

Si, you are a gentleman and far too kind. Appreciate you coming along as well. The turnout was a little smaller than expected, bit with the 50mph wind outside I'm not that surprised. The reception was stunning and pretty much getting mobbed afterwards by DJ's wanting to do some remix and/or collaboration work made us feel like we did something right. I think the extra studio time put in before hitting the live scene has paid off... Getting that dynamic as a 2 piece without samples or midi has been tough and the material written in the last few months (like the first 2 tracks last night) are clearly a step forwards for us. The promoter tells me the Venue manager wants to book us for more events this year and we have a few things on the boil with some pretty big clubs so fingers crossed. A week today until we hit the studio so next time you see us live Si, bring a few extra quid to buy a CD Shep

How was my gig last night (Friday)?... Well... Simply the best gig I've ever played. The sound was amazing, the response was like nothing we've ever had before. I'm off to bed feeling proper chugffed with myself Thanks to Phil.I.stein for popping along as well!

We just finished soundcheck and we got a crazy vibration off the bass drum skin that shook the whole place. Registered as 20hz and it was painful. Whilst it is cool while setting up for a drum and bass gig I don't think I'd want exposure to it for that long
