  5. [quote name='Grand Wazoo' post='831360' date='May 8 2010, 12:41 PM']The piezo in an Ernie Ball bass is a great addition, as you can see in that video it opens a whole new spectrum of sounds previously unavailable to a normal electric bass, not only that but when used together with the eq it allows you to cut through the muddiest of band mix and adds definition & attack to your sound. Also you will find that with a piezo, you tend to change strings less because if you like a bright sound this will enhance 50% of brightness to an otherwise dull set of strings way past their average life. I'd jump on it, if I were you.[/quote] Thanks mate, really appreciated. Grand Wazoo, of the hardware store? "F**k you if you don´t like my hat!"
  6. [quote name='Marvin' post='828163' date='May 5 2010, 09:20 AM']In the Midnight Hour.[/quote] +1 Love that song, but lately prefer the Echo & The Bunneymen version. Only difference is it´s in C I think. Been near the radio with bass in hand (within the last 5 days or so) and figured out: Cherry Lips by Garbage, Give Him A Ball by the Sultans of Ping Genius Of Love by Tom Tom Club Rebellion (Lies) by Arcade Fire You´ve got the love, Florence and the Machine version, The Time Is Now by Moloko, Mind by Talking Heads, Gay Bar by Electric Six edited for spelling I love figuring out a bassline by ear, then going to the tab or sheet and it´s spot on. Great confidence booster that

  8. Been offered a trade locally and would like to know if anyone has any experience? Is it a very versatile bass? What sort of weight are they? I have a SUB, but am selling that. Haven't had much Ray experience, I really am moreof a Precision guy, maybe Jazz at a push. Its a honeyburst finish from what I can tell, rosewood board, pearl pg and MM case. What I dont get is the layout of the control plate. What are all 5 pots for? Is the the input jack on the bottom then? Thanks for any help, Col
  9. Pics up, as promised (though a bit later than expected)
  10. pictures will be uploaded tomorrow morning lads (just waiting on Mrs. Basshead56 to get back so I can use her camera) 'onest 'injun
  11. Why does this always happen to me?! Was in Oxfordshire last weekend! Would gladly kill, dismember and bury someone for this! Don´t have cash near asking price, but do have some ´easy to sell basses´ Any chance you´d be interested in my SUB, Fender Mustang (see my ads) and a touch of cash? only snag is I´m in Ireland so that might be something of a problem If not, good luck with the sale mate, Can´t see this hanging around too long, Colin
  12. [quote name='Count Bassie' post='828817' date='May 5 2010, 06:57 PM']Like a ballast, I guess. I've writtenBritish Audio here in the states, so I guess I'll be dealing with it shortly. Thanks dood.[/quote] Have dealt with British Audio Service before- they are great!!! Fastest shipping and service from the U.S. I´ve ever experienced. That was when I was fixing up an old Trace combo I had. worked out cheaper too!
  13. Considering letting this go for the right price. US made Ampeg digital 4 channel amp. 500watts at 2 ohms and all in a handy, light, 2u rack-sized unit! What more do you really need? Digital controls-LED displays look amazing on stage! 4 Fully programmable/customisable channels-save the ideal eq settings for each of your basses! no messing around at gigs. Twin inputs allow two basses to be connected at the same time-saving the need to swap cables etc. All channels accesable via four-way footswitch. These were the last US designed and built amps before Ampeg sold to LOUD Tech and moved to Asia (minus the new Heritage series obviously). Soundwise-thise really does it all. Can get good SVT sounds. Have A/B´d this with the 3 PRO and picked this in the end. It isn´t as one-dimensional as the 3PRO in terms of achievable sounds and it goes down to 2ohms (seeing as all my cabs are 4 ohm) Not a scratch on it, has been in a rack since day one (I bought new). Only gigged a handful of times and never abused. Unfortunately I do not have the original box, but will include the manual and matching Ampeg MIDI footswitch. Please Note: Neither the 4U Rack case nor Fender Rack Tuner are for sale. This is for the AMP ONLY!!! Looking for offers around the [s]420 mark[/s] now [b]400[/b]+ shipping. Based in Ireland.

  14. Hi, Selling on another bass I rarely get to use. Comes with an original vintage 1960's Fender case (not a new/reissue one!) which cost a lot to get a few months ago! List Price on Thomann is over €700 without case-case is 180 euros and mine is a proper vintage one, not a reissue! [b]Now Including Fender Neoprene strap and locks![/b] It is in fantastic ondition. no issues whatsoever! Only one tiny (I do mean tiny) nick shown in pics. No buckle rash. Was only used for a few hours here and there. The pic of the back shows what looks like a mark-it isn´t, its clean as a very clean whistle. Again, no rush to sell this so if I dont get near asking, I'll keep it-doesn't take up [i]that much[/i] space! Not interested in any other items at present, so not not keen on trades (plus I´m in Ireland so it´d be a pain) Looking for [b]£430[/b] + shipping (based in Ireland) ps, see my other listing for a MM SUB ´Emergenza Edition´ w/ case -450 pounds+shipping " class="ipsImage" /> " class="ipsImage" /> " class="ipsImage" /> " class="ipsImage" /> " class="ipsImage" /> " class="ipsImage" /> " class="ipsImage" /> " class="ipsImage" /> " class="ipsImage" /> " class="ipsImage" /> Colin edited for price drop
  15. Surplus to requirements USA made Musicman SUB bass 4 String Active, on board EQ Burgundy Red colour Black pickguard (It did not come with a diamond plate one like the standard model) This is from a special run of the S.U.B. basses- it is the Emergenza Edition- it was a prize at the Italian Emergenza Festival and has special logo and graphic as part of the finish on the back (nothing on the front). These were made especially for this battle of the bands competition (as Ernie Ball was the main guitar sponsor) and was never for sale in shops. Feel free to Google it Great condition, few tiny nicks here and there. One tin on the tip of headstock and one on the lower bout of the body. May need new strings and a quick set up (hasnt been done in a long time). There's also a sticker on the pickguard, but it can be easily removed without leaving marks. I will include a Warwick Rockcase heavy duty flight case- the BIG cases, leather strap and Ernie Ball cable. Priced to sell at [b]435[/b] plus shipping (I am based in Ireland) I'm in no rush to sell, so won't be moving too much on the price-would be nice to give her to a good home though and free up some space! Not interested in trades AT ALL!!-have way too many basses,amps and guitars as is pics to follow in the next few days Thanks for looking, Colin " class="ipsImage" /> " class="ipsImage" /> " class="ipsImage" /> " class="ipsImage" /> " class="ipsImage" /> " class="ipsImage" /> " class="ipsImage" /> " class="ipsImage" /> " class="ipsImage" /> " class="ipsImage" /> Edited for price drop
