Bloody hell , is he ?

[quote name='cetera' post='1162880' date='Mar 15 2011, 11:11 AM']I hit 40 this year.... and the daughters will ALWAYS be more interesting than their Mums... [/quote]
42 this year , and I think you're wrong there mate .

[quote name='Crazykiwi' post='1150234' date='Mar 5 2011, 05:06 AM']Its a Series 1 or a later model Energy.[/quote]
Yeah , I think it's one of the later Series 1's that were wooden .
The Energy's , I think had the more rounded horns - much the same as the Stealth1 .

As stated , Statii Form is the place .

Just sort of confirms what I already knew of my feeble level in musicianship .

F**k a duck . This is an absolute steal . Doubt this'll last long .

Look at the SFX web page .
I bought the Micro Fuzz and it's great . Just added a Micro EQ after it , and it just enhances it even more .
Also Max does the Micro Distortion . That's my next purchase .
Great guy to deal with , home grown pedals and top notch quality - says it all .

[quote name='monkey_dancer' post='1130519' date='Feb 17 2011, 01:28 AM']Can the pedal in the loop only be used when the GR is switched on, or can it be turned on any time?[/quote]
That's what I'd like to know also . As I know the GR2 can , but Phil , is this the GR2 or a GR transitional . Cause the GR2's at Bass Direct have GR2 written on them , the last knob to the right is different , and they have a wet/dry blend .

Off topic - slightly

But some Amps have their controls around in a manner that seems 'wrong' to me . ie Aguilar . Treble , Mid then Bass , when virtually every other manufacturer starts with Bass onto Treble - left to right .

[quote name='Pete Academy' post='1120581' date='Feb 8 2011, 08:32 PM']I reckon slap bass is making a comeback. MK is polishing his thumb, as we speak.[/quote]
After watching that clip , it's not his thumb he'll be polishing .

[quote name='Bass Culture' post='1116275' date='Feb 5 2011, 10:07 AM']Mark,

Ref your comment that Max doesn't make a Chorus pedal - he does, or has done. It's not a production pedal but I know he'd make one up again as I enquired myself last year. Hell, if we both get a request in, he might bring it into his product list!:




All the best,

Mark[/quote]
I've asked him a couple of times about a Micro Chorus .

He's developing one as we speak I think .

This will probably be my third order from him when it hits the page .

[quote name='dood' post='1103484' date='Jan 26 2011, 12:32 PM']Yes, Bryn was very helpful! Though I sold my cab before getting a cover![/quote]
Yeah I keep meaning to do that .

PM'd

If I had the spare cash , I'd have this like a shot . This ain't gonna hang around for long . Free bump .

Not exactly flavour of the month , but there's still some guys on Talkbass who mention the Eden 212XLT as being one of the all time top cabs .

I know what you mean , I always say 'bass' , but the bottom line is - it is a guitar (a bass guitar) .

By just saying bass , people may think , "bass what ? Bass clarinet , Sax , Guitar , drum ?"

I don't give it a thought now and the tool analagy is spot on .

We shouldn't get too precious about a word .

First gig with the Great Gramma pad , and it made a big difference .
Wooden stage that made some notes sound quite choice (played here a few times before) , but with the cab on the pad it was all cookin' .
Must say I was a bit sceptical at first when I bought it sight unseen having never tried one before , but I'm doing every gig with this from now on - great bit of kit .
Good gig also - always a bonus .

Dave.C - Thanks again for the flats. I'll let you know as soon as I've fitted them.[/quote]
Yeah that was a really nice gesture .

There's a good comunity on here , and the Bashes just highlight that even more .

[quote name='StevieD_FenderP2009' post='1085104' date='Jan 11 2011, 04:10 AM']Hi

I'm looking at buying an old Aphex Aural Exciter Type C but on eBay there's currently a Type B up for sale so I was thinking of getting that instead. To me, it looks like it does the same thing but I was wondering if anyone knows of any difference between the 2 models

Cheers
Stevie[/quote]
Might be wrong here , but didn't one have the "big bottom" setting , and the other one not ?

[quote name='essexbasscat' post='1083476' date='Jan 9 2011, 07:28 PM']Now have GAS for an Eden WT400 Traveler and an Epifani 4x10 cab (talking myself into believing I can cope with the bulk), that combination is just nice, warm and versatile. Spot on.



T[/quote]
Yeah sorry about that , it's all my fault It is a good combination , and the 410 is one of the lightest around .

Just a thanks for Rik for organising it all - though I'm glad no one came into the toilets whilst I was handing over that money to you ... I mean , I know we're all brothers and all , but someone might have got the wrong idea

Sorry I didn't get to speak to everyone there , and to those that I did , I can safely say that I've forgotten your names already - memory like a sieve . Name tags and monikers next time I think .

Spent some quality time with some great people , what more can you ask for . Though I'd have liked to stay longer , but it's the only day off in the week that I have free , so had to make a bit of a concession to wife and kids .

Mainly only tried Dave's Vigier , and got sort of swept up in it a bit . Other nice basses there expensive and cheap , but I'm blinded by graphite through and through . V bass was good fun .

Always a pleasure to catch up with His Royal Highness - The Dood of Hethersett , and playing through His rig (probably be different at the next bash ) . It's nice that a TV star can still mix it with the general public . Good to see ya mate .

All in all a good day , look forward to the next one .

[quote name='Stag' post='1081842' date='Jan 8 2011, 10:06 AM']Me, Dood and BassCat are all still definites...[/quote]
Me too

[quote name='lonestar' post='1075734' date='Jan 2 2011, 09:13 PM']That's very decent of you Sir.
Sorry I can't stump up the £100 but will be happy to pay my £10 or £12 to you if it doesn't happen or I can't make it in person on the day for some unforeseen reason, as I think we all should, if we've agreed to come along at this stage and a good fellow like Paul is shouldering the risk.
Still looking forward to it.
Mike[/quote]
Though if anyone does ring my mobile and the wife answers , don't mention the £100

Oh , and I didn't mean to come across pompous about no shows , 'cause we're all busy and if someone can't make it , they can't - no big deal . If I'm down a bit , I'm down a bit

Just thought I'd try and give this a kick up the arse

I'll pay £100 by credit card to the Hall , to confirm the booking , if someone else does the other half (I'm not taking all the risk)

Though I'll be a bit pissed off if we get no shows and I'm out of pocket .

Will this help to get this moving ?

Though in fairness , you could say the same about The Gallery.

[quote name='Pete Academy' post='1070149' date='Dec 27 2010, 02:50 PM']Great playing on 'Wake Me Up' and 'Club Tropicana'.[/quote]
Ain't that true - awesome player . Tasteful as hell - Careless Whisper and Last Christmas . Whatever you think of the songs , have a listen to the bass playing - tasteful and slow builds from start to finish .

Another massively underated player .

[quote name='dood' post='1070151' date='Dec 27 2010, 02:50 PM']Time seems to be slipping by and yes we do need to get that payment in advance. I'll have a PM with Charic as we somehow need to get the money to him so that we can book the hall, I guess.[/quote]
Let me know how I can pay , and by when , and I'll do it . I suspect everyone is in agreement .

This sort of went all cold , and I don't think anyone knew what was happening with this .

Let me know mate , and I'll send it off - Oh and is there anything I can bring . I mean does everyone bring their lunch , or do people club together for a sort of buffet . I know this probably sounds like a knobby question , but after bass , it's my stomach
