    Hi Whereabouts are you? You mentioned two problems, but only mentioned the missing screw. Also what is the weight? Cheers Si
  2. Yeah I had a great time when I visited last week , I think I'll probably pop over next saturday too. Some very cool basses, the kind that lots of people often just see in pictures, so nice to see them within touching distance. My fave out of all of them was a Zon Sonus fretless 4, extremely playable and sounded like a fretless should! The Foderas look great, but I have to say (and this is simply personal preference), I was slightly underwhelmed by the AC's Each to their own huh Cheers Barrie, and I hope I'll catch Phil next time too Si
  3. Yup, am watching this....lush isn't it Don't think I'd buy blind, but don't think he'll answer my question about whether he's ever in london with it Si
  4. Are there any pedals that do similar things to a Slicer? I'm not really interested in presets, just tap and that real quick (adjustable) delay result The reason I ask is because the Slicer is bloody huge lol Cheers Si
  5. Wow, beautiful bass I have some cash saved up, but nowhere near enough I'm afraid lol I agree though, vintage stuff, take a photo of everythingggggg Good luck, its a stunner Si
  6. Hi all, Billy has asked me to close this as he feels everything has been said, and the original issue has been sorted. Thanks to everyone for sharing their thoughts and for Alex for coming forward to comment. Long may Bass Shops exist to hear their customers feedback Cheers Si
  7. Ah my Fender's aren't going anywhere The Zon sounded exactly like a fretless should but I've no use for one really. Singlecuts.....they're my guilty pleasure, LOVE them lol Si
  8. How schmexual are these two? [url="http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/16/fodera.png/"][/url] [url="http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/684/zongt.jpg/"][/url] I tried the Zon at BassGear last week, twas lovely. The Fodera is just off their website, 4 string SingleCuts ftw Si
  9. Done Have fun with it Si
  10. PM'd Si
  11. Seriously, how many of you think this is a genuine?? I definitly think he's doing it firmly tongue in cheek......you can hear the guy can play well from the little bits he does Chill out Si

    Cheers for the suggestions all, I literally borrowed it and went straight to a gig so had limited time during setup to have a play......and I got frustrated lol. Will play a bit more with the level, character control and drive and report back. Si

    Tech 21 VT Bass

    Only just saw the other replies after I did mine. Yes, I can see the benifit of driving a power-amp with that juice, but as jonny mentioned, utterly useless in front of a 'regular' setup. Could take the knob off to stop it being knocked, but still doesn't make the range of the control pretty useless Cheers though Si

    Tech 21 VT Bass

    I'm talking lots more sensitive though, I'm running the drive quite heavy as I want an overdriven sound, but the level I can't adjust a hair without witnessing a massive jump in volume. It's currently on around 8 o'clock, which leaves 9-5 completely useless volume. At a gig, if it got knocked from say 8 to 10, the level difference would be horrendous. It's probably fine in the studio as it doesn't get moved about, but gig box and onstage doesn't seem ideal. Would there be a way of modding the level control to reduce the range/sensitivity of the pot do you think? Si
  15. Well he's not doing too well then, according to his Twitter, he's just bought another Jazz bass in Tokyo lol Si

    Tech 21 VT Bass

    ....but does the level control render it utterly useless as a gigging pedal?? Think I had it about 9 o'clock and it was feeding back. Was making the tiniest tiniest increment changes to get a decent level between off and on, but then what if it gets knocked?! Anyone successfully changed the range of the level?, I can't think of any situation that you'd need it to go as loud as it can. I'm only borrowing it, and it sounds like there's some great sounds, but I just gave up after 10mins of tiny adjustments at my gig. Unplugged it and packed it away before we started Si
  17. All the Jazzes look very 'asian', by that I mean all the brands like Willow, Atielier, Bacchus have a particular vibe I think. The Willow singlecut is lush Si
  18. Hello mate Seemingly it was re-sold by Devinebass?!, four years ago, I PM'd him. I suspect the bass got sold off-site though Si
  19. That ERB Benavente is rediculous (in a good way)......it looks like a fat person Si
  20. I can find the original 'For Sale' thread, but its not obvious who bought it.....and the seller didn't reply to my PM lol Si
  21. 9 month bump.....on the off-chance? Si
  22. Sibob

    Delay!

    Best Delay I've heard is my guitarist's Boss DM-2......yeah good luck finding a cheap one (he was given his lol) But the new DD-7 has a model of it apparently Si
  23. Great pedal, love mine Great price too, good luck Si

  25. [quote name='silddx' post='1348456' date='Aug 22 2011, 09:45 PM'].. that this quest for the perfect bass bullshit, is BULLSHIT! Being on basschat has somewhat corrupted my thinking, that I need a bass that's perfect for me. I don't. I need a good bass, good strings, and my brain. That is all. I've been playing, not talking, and I have found out that all I need is a decent bass. There is little difference between any of the basses I have had, only practical things. Playing and thinking about music has shown me that any decent bass will do. I've talked about bass far too long. When you actually PLAY, you start getting a more real connection with yourself, and the instrument itself becomes less and less important. Your LIFE is what is important. Live it and you will speak though your bass.[/quote] Mate...you should have asked....coulda told you this ages ago Si
