  1. Hmmm I think what i want (which probably doesn't exist) is a sprung Wah (bad horsie styley), with a low-pass mod, that would be ideal lol Si
  2. A bit labour intensive yeah, I have a couple if tunes in my hiphop/dubstep band that have every note swelled...I'm not riding the volume pedal for 8mins lol. Plus the Me-50b volume function has a noticeable notch between off and on, so it's hard to be consistent. As you might have guessed from my other thread, I'm vaguely thinking about replacing it for single pedals, but it's a great piece if kit, so we'll see Si
  3. [quote name='BottomEndian' post='1259457' date='Jun 7 2011, 11:09 AM']Well, seeing as the original Slow Gear pedals are extremely rare and about a bazillion squid....[/quote] You're not joking, one on eBay £299 BIN Si
  4. Cheers, I'll have a scout about. Yeah something bass-centric would be ideal! Si
  5. No that's great, explains it a bit more for me!. Any idea as to what might be able to replace it as a single pedal. Any Bass Wah's that retain the bottom end like it, anyone tried the Morley?....is it sprung?! Lol Cheers Si
  6. As the title suggests really, any bass pedals that slow the attack of a note? Essentially an auto-fade in I guess. Not a 'Reverse' as I don't want the note to cut off, decay as normal Cheers Si
  7. On my Boss ME-50b the pedal can either be used as a Wah or a Resonance pedal. I seem to prefer the sound of the Resonance setting for effecting the other sounds I might be using. Can anyone shed any light on the actual difference between the two effects? Cheers Si
  8. [quote name='Schnozzalee' post='1259241' date='Jun 7 2011, 05:12 AM']Looks that way, shouldn't the pickguard have holes too for the ashtray? Its wonderful condition though [/quote] I can see holes in the pickguard. Although not sure I can see the holes carried through to the body??...having said that, they do tend to 'move' on older fenders, so wouldn't surprise me if the holes didn't align completely anymore. Tis lovely indeed! Si
  9. C = 1.75 width at the nut B = 1.625 A = Jazz width (whatever that is...its late lol). Your '78 J will have an A neck But as mentioned earlier, those C necks tended to be have a more shallow depth than the B necks Si
  10. I've tried a few 59's, 62's and 63's and although they have the wider neck, they all seemed much more shallow (compared to B necks), so equally comfortable after the initial adjustment to it. Si
  11. [quote name='ingenius' post='1258933' date='Jun 6 2011, 09:07 PM']Nice one Si, great vibe to it as you say ,which band /s did you play with?? regards Keith[/quote] Band called Tin Soldier, I'm a southener, but the other guys were from Keswick/Cockermouth. Sam Hinde, Jamie Shill, Simon Thwaites if any of those names ring a bell Think we played 2 years in the row about 6 or 7 years ago Si
  12. I've played the KBF a few times and was always tremendous fun, such a cool vibe about the whole event! Si
  13. I was under the impression that Darwin Deez is the name of the band?! I like the Radar Detector song and that's about it Si
  14. Your '72 is the maple sibling to my '71 [url="http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/848/22622810150185321817091.jpg/"][/url] 'Sixshooter' here had an excellently refinished '59 that he was selling....I almost had it last year....beautiful bass Si
  15. [quote name='Nostromo' post='1256556' date='Jun 4 2011, 03:35 PM']Its all down to personal preference isnt it ? I love my J/P mongrel as listed below . . . . what exactly is the model of this Precision with a slim C neck . . . at the moment I wouldn't know what to look out for . . . is it a specific model ?[/quote] Oh yeah of course, I dunno what it is, I suppose for me, the sound and vibe a Precision emits, fits well with the chunkier neck.....makes me think about things differently than my Jazz, which is what I aim for when switching basses. Si
  16. I had a Precision with a Jazz neck a while ago.....didn't get on with it.....something just wasn't quite right. I love my Jazz's neck, I love my Precision's neck.....but mix them and it doesn't gel with me for some reason...odd Si
  17. That's cool man, cheers Enjoy it Si
  18. Oh you're joking Put a wanted post up for one of these yesterday and everything... Wahhhh Si
  19. Btw, I've merged the two Adam Clayton CS topics now Si
  20. I think its cool! Remember that Gold Sparkle was a custom colour back in the day!....albeit very rare! Si
  21. Clarky beat me to it And with a link that works, so I'll delete mine lol Si
  22. [quote name='munkonthehill' post='1253078' date='Jun 1 2011, 07:52 PM']Is there any websites or links for this bass. I cant find any info online..[/quote] Just for reference, I remember that I asked Rob Green about a passive Jazz a while ago, and he said that it would be in the realm of £1400 Si
  23. And just fitted them....all seems good, plugged in and tried. Can't wait to gig it this weekend ....will report back Si
  24. There's not many bands you wanna see, and you're working on a (crazy busy) bar for 18 hours......for free....to camp in a hell-hole..... Awesome Have fun! :-D Si
  25. Just ordered mine on eBay (same as jack), so looking forward to getting this done next week Si
