  1. I'll shout if someone gets it (you won't). Couldn't find them anywhere other than America booooo Si
  2. When it's finished I will say that I have ordered the knobs, they are fairly weird, so they might not stay on the bass, but I will give someone a (conceptual) prize if they can guess what type of knobs lol Si
  3. Remember it's got a dry out as well, running that to your amp, with the wet out to your DI (for PA if it's available) would be wisest at loud volumes. Si
  4. Yeah make sure you're powering it properly lol The Meatbox is real quirky, all the controls kinda affect each other! You also won't get much of a feel for it through headphones, put it through your amp but be careful, it was nicknamed the speaker-buster for a reason! Si
  5. The Orange stuff is great, but the EQ section is not very versatile. I found that it sounded excellent flat.....which is helpful, because the sound didn't change a great deal with preamp tweaking. I had the Genz Streamliner 900 for a bit, really didn't like it, couldn't get a tone that was pleasing to my ears in a band mix. Aguilar is a fairly safe shout, lots of love, although I've never gigged one. Yeah get over to Bass Gear to try a bunch of stuff in their amp room, great guys and an awesome shop! I love my Markbass stuff, so not much more I can say haha Si

    T-Rex Jucy Lucy

    I use a Juicy Lucy with Boss pedals a LOT. Boss pedals step down the power to 9v anyway I believe. In fact I've tried a lot of my pedals with the JL and they all seem fine, but perhaps seek advice from the pedal manufacturer regarding 12v Si
  7. Meh Si
  8. If you like the Fuzzrocious stuff, whilst the Rat-Tail can do low gain, it shines on high-gain. I'd look at the BDPG, Demon or Dark Driving. Xotic BB Pre does a real nice low-gain. The first Guv'nor is cool on bass, supposedly what Timmy used on the first RATM album, 2nd Guvnor....I've not tried. Catalinbread SFT also gets a fair mention from many people. Theres a LOT out there, your ears are very different to everyone elses, so just experiment with as many as you can Si
  9. Last call for this tonight if you're about in Camden and bored Si
  10. Always on in this instance Si
  11. I think it's safe to say that Tom is willing to listen to suggestions of most mods on any of his pedals?! Check out the Knightfall 66 for some mods/features we thought were pretty cool, my prototype is here: [url="http://www.cogeffects.co.uk/si-poulton.php"]http://www.cogeffects.co.uk/si-poulton.php[/url] Si
  12. A little board I've out together for a few gigs with Polar Caps [IMG]http://i41.tinypic.com/1z6w86a.jpg[/IMG] Fairly simple and self explanatory: TU-2 -> Boss CS-2 -> Boss OC-2 -> Fuzzrocious BDPG -> SFX Thumpinator Powered by the Gigrig Generator Si
  13. [quote name='tayste_2000' timestamp='1384884227' post='2281871'] Still using another pedal to fix the short comings of a pedal which sir is my case in point [/quote] I think you missed me ripping it out of the ODB-3 haha. Si
  14. [quote name='TG Flatline' timestamp='1384879043' post='2281792'] Apart from the bit about the ODB-3 of course... [/quote] Lets be fair to it........you could just clean-blend out the ODB-3 totally.....then it would be good! Si
  15. There's a cool Fuzrocious BDPG for sale here if you fancied trying one: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/222700-fuzzrocious-grey-stache-bdpg/"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/222700-fuzzrocious-grey-stache-bdpg/[/url] Si
  16. Very similar to a neck Jon made for me a few years ago. Solid as a rock it was, congrats Si
  17. If you buy new I suspect you'll only be able to get a Gen3, if you look around second hand, try to find a Gen2 in my opinion Si
  18. Hi guys, I'm playing with Polar Caps at the Weds clubnight at Proud Galleries (Witness The Fitness club). Theres 3 bands in total with DJ's afterwards, let me know if you need guestlist asap! (I think its a free list) Polar Caps is Owen Hughes-Holland, ex First Signs Of Frost, and I'm also ex-FSOF......so nice to be playing for Owen's solo stuff It's essentially Electronic alt-pop i guess, search is on Spotify Si

    Pedaltrain Volto

    [quote] I think it would be prudent, in future to ensure it is fully charged before every session [/quote] Something else to remember :-/ I imagine the Volto is great if you're running all true bypass, so you're signal just defaults to your amp when your pedals die, but running anything with a buffer sounds a bit scary if you forget to charge before a gig. Hmmmm Si
  20. Yeah the Xotic BB Pre is the obvious choice here IMO. The fuzzrocious Broke Dick Peanut Gallery is the curveball, awesome pedal I've not tried one, but the Catainbread SFT gets plenty of love too! Si

    Another Bass BB Pre, this was requested with a plain enclosure. Pretty happy with the neatness of the insides: [IMG]http://i39.tinypic.com/1zqv90y.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i42.tinypic.com/3010hat.jpg[/IMG] Si
  22. Genuinely surprised this is still here! Si

    If it's a one off, stripboard it. If it's a simple build (fuzz or boost), turret board it Si
  24. [quote name='Twigman' timestamp='1384446657' post='2276842'] It will be more like a stingray scratchplate than a pbass plate, as it won't go down to the knobs - one reason why I got the green pearl inly knobs. [/quote] So you're building a Fleabass? Si
