  1. [quote name='alexclaber' post='75968' date='Oct 18 2007, 11:45 AM']Just finishing off the artwork for our first release - what do we need to state on the CD and packaging regarding copyright and so on? Alex[/quote] A 'C' with a circle around it denotes who owns the copyright to the artwork, a 'P' with a circle denotes who owns the Music E.G. Copyright 'C' Alec Claber Phonographic Copyright 'P' Song/BMG Obviously you might own the copyright to your recording, depends if you're signed, or if you've licensed the release etc. You'd also mention any publishing copyright as well (who wrote and owns the songs (not the recording..thats different)). Best thing to do with the rest of the gumpf like "public performance" etc etc, best thing to do is check out another CD and pick the bits that are applicable! You don't actually NEED the C's and P's, because once you have a tangible product, and you can prove 100% that you created it, you own the copyright, its just a technicality/backup writing it down. Other things might usually include crediting the producer/engineer etc. Who it was manufactured by (a lot of CD's are manufactured in Germany cos its cheaper, so often you'll see BIEM mentioned on the CD.....go on...go check lol). Umm, think thats about it, hope that helps Check back if you need anything else Si
  2. If anyone wants to have a look, the thread is [topic="7376"]HERE[/topic] Si
  3. I kinda see what your saying, but: If you want a MIM you wait as long as it takes If you want a MIJ ..... the same! They're two different products because one will almost certainly be better quality then the other. Like i said, if you want something from Ishibashi, tell them you want to buy it! It might prompt them to make you aware of Stock quantities quicker. It looks like you have other basses to gig and practice with, so make sure you're not ordering a potentially inferior product simply because it will be delivered faster! Si
  4. *SOLD* Ok, am putting this up on behalf of my girlfriend. Holly was given this by Apple as 'payment' for some endorsement work her band did for them, but she needs to clear some finances up so its going up for sale! I've put it up here first cos its the safest place to sell anything imo and hopefully we can avoid the dreaded 'Bay Ok Its a Brand new boxed and sealed Mac Book in Black! Spec: * 2.16GHz Intel Core 2 Duo * 13" screen * 1GB memory * 160GB hard drive1 * Double-layer SuperDrive Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger Front Row • Photo Booth • iWork '08 30-day trial • Microsoft Office 2004 for Mac 30-day Test Drive She's looking for [b]£700 ono[/b] (they're £949 from the Apple Webshop) She's in Swindon, but it can be accessible from Reading/Wycombe/West London very easily Collection preferred!

  5. I use a Mini 48 on its own half the time, and with a Mini 15 all the other time, and they're great. Obviously not going to kick ass like a 4x12 or a an 8x10 would, but still nice and gutsy and tight with great tone IMO. I use it with an ABM EVO II 500, i'm not sure if its all UK or not, i purchased them about 4 years ago, and the shop had maybe had them for 6months-1 year. How would i find out? The 1x15 is pretty light, but the 4x8 is considerably heavier, i think the newer models are lighter though Si p.s. I've never had any problems with any of the Ashdown stuff, nothing that couldn't be sorted in 5 mins (loose knobs etc)
  6. Yeah, mine doesn't get trodden on kicked about, its on top of my amp and always on! Its simply the amount of times i plug it in and out. Hmmm Si
  7. [quote name='OutToPlayJazz' post='80501' date='Oct 28 2007, 05:10 PM']Love the cream binding around the 'board! Get a badass II on that & you're away Glad to see someone else bought a bass this weekend. I was beginning to feel selfish [/quote] I brought a bass this weekend to! Theres a clue in my signature! A 'Porn' thread is imminent! Congrats again on the purchase Weird War, its wicked! Si
  8. Yeah, I've never heard a bad word said about them, don't know about phoning though, i've only ever heard people talk about e-mail correspondence. Depends whether you wanna foot a phone bill to Japan If you see a good one on Ishibashi, and you've done the maths with regards to shipping and import/ VAT costs etc, then just email them saying you want to buy it! Its going to be the same as just ordering blind from Thomann, but you'll have MIJ instead of MIM, probably similar price to! I know which I'd rather have! Si
  9. Very very nice indeed!! Is that the Ash bodied one? Si
  10. My experience of Ishibashi is that their turnover of stock is quite fast. I've enquired about a number of basses, and although they're pretty quick at replying (all things considered) most have been sold by the time they have. The Allparts P & J necks are Fender licensed goods, so although the headstocks are blank, they are the same dimensions as basic MIA/MIJ/MIM Fenders. They also do a number of different colour options on bodies, and u could choose black/silver/gold hardware, size and shape of tuners etc etc My advice if you're buying MIM is to try it first, although there are some great MIM's out there, you're less likely to get a good one ordering blind then if you go MIJ or MIA imo. Good luck Si
  11. The other option, if you find it hard to get out and try stuff, is just order all the parts from Allparts or similar, all to your spec and sit at home and put it together yourself! Easy Si
  12. I love my Aphex Compressor pedal but, as has been reported a number of times by various users, the plastic input jacks are becoming a problem and its starting to buzz and play up a bit. Has anyone managed to remedy this, either by having someone open one up and pimping it to 'gigging 3-4 times' standard, or any other way of making the jacks less fragile? Cheers Si
  13. You asked about Fenders, so heres my 2 cents Go out and try some MIA P's i say, they're not worth £1000 but you can pick them up for £500 second hand easy, just avoid the S1 switching at all costs!! Its wicked on Jazz's but utterly pointless on the P's! I picked up my USA Jazz standard for a crazy price (just under £300) and i love it love it love it Very good advice above, sometimes a good setup is all a bass needs The Japanese models also really get bigged up, but i would say go for an Ash or Alder bodied ones, rather then the cheaper Basswood bodied ones! If you have no luck with these then definitley look further afield like Lakland, but like i said, you asked about Fender! Good luck Si
  14. Looking forward to this, i think it will look like Cat Steven's Bass Player's gold flake ASAT (his name escapes me). U can get those gold strings (again make and model escape me) Its early after not much sleep I'm not a big fan of those 'humerous' logo's. I'd say either go for the actual Fender logo or try and do something like your own signature etc. I went for a Fender logo on my P Project because i like the aesthetic! Pics!!!! Si
  15. Well i like my Fender Case lol I also have have a MusicMan style SKB case that i got from Eubassix! Great case, super sturdy, plenty of room for peripherals. Si
  16. Maybe it is But the Ergodynes were definitely made from it! Si

  18. My moulded logo fender case is great! Survived numerous gigs and tours and still lines up! But yeah, copy tweed cases can be ordered from most decent music shops for not much bunce! Si
  19. [quote name='Beedster' post='79319' date='Oct 25 2007, 12:06 PM']Ah, but like so many examples of the fairer sex, it's the imperfections that create the magic Chris[/quote] Exactly, definitely don't tell them you wish they were tighter! Si
  20. Hey, i didn't bad-mouth the neck pocket did i, i just wanted pictures! [quote]If the neck moves in the pocket tighten the screws up[/quote] A neck wouldn't move in the pocket if it was a tight fit! And just for clarity, this particular gap doesn't bother me Si
  21. I use a Laney RB1 for practice at home! Fantastic little kick back amp for low to medium volumes, love the tone, don't need to crank it simply because its a practice amp really. I've used it on a couple of small upright gigs to great success, but thats about it. Si

  23. So my poor Shuker Custom Electric Upright has been sitting in its case for a while now, having not had an upright gig in a long time. Obviously i can take pics although am just wondering what people think at the mo. The spec is the standard one found on John's website, although the body on mine looks deeper then his gallery pics, it's made from African Mahogany with an Imbuya Burl top and matching headstock, is 36" scale and has the Schertler transducer pickup system. The fingerboard is unmarked but has dots and lines on the side. It attaches to the supplied tripod stand The bass is in fantastic, almost mint condition apart from a couple of very very minor scuffs on the top of the headstock. It would come with the Shuker softcase and a bow, which, IIRC is a Stentor brazilwood w/ebony frog 3/4 bow costing about £120 new. Collection only as i would urge people to try it! It cost £1375 NEW + Bow = £1495 I would want around [b]£900[/b] for this or see possible trade list in post below Cheers for looking Si p.s. forgot to mention, theres a video on my personal myspace of me bowing the bass for Gabby Young, listen through headphones or decent speakers!
  24. i dunno, i know a few! Si
