Oh I am....but u gotta have an old Stingray haven't you lol One day, for now, my 4 Fenders do me perfectly! Si
-
Sounds fantastic! Kudos My only little tiny criticism would be that the Warwick sounds a bit modern for the songs you're playing, but hey, whatever you wanna play huh Si

Well it seems to be an Ibanez custom shop....which depending on what you paid for it, could be a great deal....if you like Ibanez lol. I should think your best bet is to contact Ibanez and ask directly, sure they could give you some decent info. Maybe an ibanez-head will be in soon, I don't really know anything about them. You will be able to take it out of Drop C if you want, probably handy if you're learning otherwise you won't be able to play along with anything other than Pitchshifter and a handful of other metal bands (like my old one ) Congrats on the purchase Si

[quote name='chris_b' post='1312470' date='Jul 22 2011, 10:42 AM']I prefer the look of the side stack. I'd get a set of 4 cab feet from Maplins, about £3 for a set. You can screw them on or just place them where you want. I do this if I use my 210's on their ends or 1 210 with the 112.[/quote] Cheers for this Chris, I'll look into it [quote name='nottswarwick' post='1312695' date='Jul 22 2011, 01:28 PM']Not sure I get that reference re the recommendations etc? However, it is working well so far. Needs gigging though. And I will only fully recommend it after this - otherwise it goes back under Alex's policy. We shall see,[/quote] I think you'll be happy with it out gigging, gigs are where it comes into its own, and my ABMII 500 sounds great with it too! Si

[quote name='nottswarwick' post='1312051' date='Jul 21 2011, 08:56 PM']Question really is 2 compacts or a compactandmidget lol.[/quote] Regarding this, Alex said that a Compact & a Midget would essentially sound like a louder Compact, whereas two Compacts would give you a lot more bottom end and low frequencies Si
-
I don't really have a definitive answer for you I'm afraid, I suppose it depends what amp you're using, what band you're playing with etc. It's rated at 600watts, so is pretty poky!. I always raised it up about a foot or so for more coverage, was easily playing venues of perhaps a couple of hundred with no PA support. Si

The trick is finding the right band innit. I gig a LOT with my covers/function band, but its great fun....everyone is a very high standard, no show is the same really. But I also take lessons, teach a little bit (great way of learning about yourself as well), and play some original shows too, not as many as I used to...I pick and choose them now. I know loads of guys who make a healthy living from being a professional musician/teacher, me?....I kinda like the seperation between my (rather serious) semi-pro hobby, and the rest of my life. Si

I thought the sage green MIM on here for sale a while ago looked great! Si

Enfield do their fully switchable system: [url="http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/819/109hp.jpg/"][/url] Si

I would never ever judge a bass/amp/cab outside of a gig setting, everything is so different to home use, and even rehearsal use (what gigs do you do in a small 10x10 room?) Get it out and play it, tweak it, then see what you think Si
-
How would you compare the Hardwire Overdrive to the Boss ODB-3? Si
-
I have an Orange Terror Bass (albeit with non-stock valves) & a Markbass Littlemark 2, I have to say both are great through my Barefaced Compact. The Markbass has a much more powerful EQ section, although to be fair I've just got both amps set absolutely flat at the moment. You won't make the Markbass overdrive, whereas you can with the Orange, although I never take it that far. Si
-
Stacks were phased out by the end of '62, so there was a transition period I'm not sure about it, something doesn't feel right lol. Certainly the knobs are replacements Si

HELP! I've just received a £1,200 bonus from work.

Ummm, is it actually a bonus?? Or is it an over-payment that they're going to ask for back lol Si -
South East Bass Bash No.5, Surrey, Saturday 24th September 2011
Sibob replied to silverfoxnik's topic in Events
All those worried about not being an experienced player or anything like that, please don't think about it like that. There is genuinely more talking going on than playing, that's certainly the case for me. Si -
It seems quite cool just playing at home with it, I won't get to explore completely (volume/song context) until rehearsals, first one for a while is on Sunday....will report back Si
-
Do you just have your cab sat on the floor? Si

[quote name='CyberBass' post='1299965' date='Jul 11 2011, 02:58 PM']I have no doubt they are great cabs, my worry is im going from an extremely loud cab that im used to, and would need to sell it to pay for a new one so there's no going back. After feeling a little let down with my recent amp change im just being a bit more cautious. Steve. knowing the sort of music you play thats a great recommendation for a small cab. Im not expecting earth moving low end but if it works for you then i expect it will be at least deep enough for me.[/quote] I've never gigged a Schroeder, but the BF cabs are pretty bloody loud/sensitive Si
-
If it makes any difference, I can highly recommend the BF Compacts, so much so that I've just bought another one..... Mmmm 2x15 stack My mate Dave also liked it so much he bought a a Super Twelve. Si

[quote name='andy67' post='1299746' date='Jul 11 2011, 11:26 AM']Interested in one of these: [url="http://www.soundslive.co.uk/product~name~Peavey-ValveKing-Royal-8-Combo~ID~11084.asp"]http://www.soundslive.co.uk/product~name~P...bo~ID~11084.asp[/url] for a trade? And a wee bit money your way. It's in pristine condition. andy[/quote] No thanks buddy, I have amps coming out of my ears! I'm leaning towards just cash now as I'm pretty much set for everything else and I've just pulled the trigger on a couple of bits Cheers Si

Cheers for bumping this guys Its a shame all the questions didn't get answered, not that I hold it against Owen in the slightest, but I have some other great bassists lined up for interviews, so watch this space Si
