[quote name='danbowskill' timestamp='1380363280' post='2224242'] Tom's starting building me a 66 now :-) saw your you tube vid on his recommendations.........I was sold :-) [/quote] Awesome, let us know what you think!! Si

GigRig Generator, distributor & couple of voltage changers. Super modular setup, 5amps power, expensive though Si

Pino will also excel in any given musical situation......but for me, JMJ was the ultimate NIN bassist! Si

[quote name='paul_5' timestamp='1380133718' post='2221375'] If you're new to all of this shizzle then the easiest thing in the world is to pop into Maplins. Don't do this. It's WAY cheaper (by at least 50%) to get your components etc... from this chap. [url="http://doctortweek.co.uk"]http://doctortweek.co.uk[/url] [/quote] +100000 etc Si

[quote name='FretNoMore' timestamp='1380129317' post='2221293'] I suggest 90 degrees. [/quote] Oooops , can you tell I was tired lol Si

Considering the Tombola didn't happen Plus I won near the end which was when the XL polo's, blame Nik for pointing me at the Tombola prizes Si

Ooo, also, I won some velcro in the raffle....those who know me will understand how useful this is Si

He probably likes it as it's a more solid, tourable version of his old Microsynths (he hates the new EHX synths) Si

[quote name='iamtheelvy' timestamp='1379941031' post='2218442'] Anyone have a recommendation of a wide, but not very deep pedal? [/quote] Just anything Boss/MXR sized turned 45 degrees? Or maybe a landscape 1590BB (same as your Fuzzrocious Demon). Any 1590a pedal? Si

Red Llama clone finished yesterday. Great sounding fuzzy overdrive (originally called Tube Sound Fuzz by Craig Andreson). First attempt at spraying enclosures, and probably the last . Getting the insides tidier I think, but just experimenting with finishing the outsides a bit. [IMG]http://i39.tinypic.com/2qds9xc.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i44.tinypic.com/2n8zsw8.jpg[/IMG] Si

I don't think it's people suggesting overdrive, just that overdrive is one of their essentials. As mentioned, it's so subjective, however there is certainly instances of overdrive and fuzz in funk/disco, Bootsy, Bernard Edwards, Stevie Wonder etc. Sometimes they were pedals, sometimes they were just basses too hot for the recording equiptment. Just depends on your ears and preferences Si

Hi guys, I had a blast! . Was great to see a number of faces I haven't caught up with for a while. Nice to play a few basses I've never tried, and spy a few interesting pedal setups Thanks every one involved, and everyone who turned up, busiest year yet?! Until next year Si

I mean, you can't hear the sub, I've heard that it's crazy low....but apart from that, basically a Micro Synth?! Si

[quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1379751667' post='2216385'] But what on Earth is this, people having gigs and rehearsals to go to, or indeed having a life?? Tsk, tsk... We'll try and organise a weekend meetup in London in the next few months, between now and the LBGS, for those who can't make either. [/quote] Whenever you say LBGS, I always read it as LGBT . Combined, what a show that would be haha Si

[quote name='iamtheelvy' timestamp='1379687409' post='2215747'] Update of mine. Latest is the Boss PN-2. Space is pretty well used up, but I still have one power output underneath... hmmm... [URL=http://s1274.photobucket.com/user/iamtheelvy/media/2013-09-07141913_zps36db6bc6.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1274.photobucket.com/albums/y440/iamtheelvy/2013-09-07141913_zps36db6bc6.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [/quote] What you talking about?.....loads of space up top above the Boss/Prunes Si

[quote name='Left Foot' timestamp='1379692293' post='2215814'] I've emailed about release dates and price, like a Fizz'd fuzz for bass, or is that an over simplification? [/quote] A fizz'd fuzz? You won't get a fuzz tone out of it unless you dime the Bass control, when you do that, it saturates to the point of fuzz, other than that it's a low-mid overdrive-distortion pedal The Grand Tarkin will give you full on fuzz which could be scaled back I imagine Si

I'd be interested to know how GB was purchased by Fender, was it a private sale? Or was it a floated company and an aggressive takeover? The former, to me, smacks more of GB being the fulfillers of their own destiny, the directors/owners selling it down the river for financial gain (they're not stupid with regards to larger companies aquisition road-maps). If it's the latter, then if the brand was making money, would Fender not have financially benifited more (if the sale is to it's reduce their debts) by simply selling the GB brand outright? Si

Lots of people get on really well with the Zoom B3, but again, its whether you are ok with digital models over analogue equivalents. Some people don't care, some people just want a small unit with everything in, there is no right/wrong. Si

Apologies, I said earlier that there wasn't an FX talk, there is, looking forward to it! Si

Haha, I wouldn't say I'm a snob (much), whatever works for the individual However I will say that I've never heard a decent overdrive/distortion/fuzz from a stock Multi-FX. I've got a Boss ME-50B, and it does everything extremely well apart from drive lol. However given the choice, yes, I would use nice single pedals over cheap digital multi's That said, I tried an old Zoom 708 the other month for the first time in years, hilarious, it was so horrible that it was cool! Si

What 'proper' pedals have you been trying that don't stand up to a Zoom 505? lol Don't get me wrong, everything is completely subjective......but still Si

Same as Si above, no FX talk this year, but always willing to bring along anything people want to try and answer any FX/Pedal related questions Updated list here: [url="http://simonpoulton.tumblr.com/post/42859467332/effects-pedal-collection"]http://simonpoulton.tumblr.com/post/42859467332/effects-pedal-collection[/url] Si

Wow, yes, really looking like it'll be well attended. It's looking like this is the first year I won't have to shoot off to a gig, so looking forward to chilling out a bit Si
