  3. Hi Guys Got this about 6 weeks ago from fellow basschatter MXM to do some song that we aren't going to do now and I need a new wireless in ears transmitter. It has a power supply but no box or instructions, it works as far as can know MXM sent me a pdf link to the G5 and has some really usable sounds. £ 150.00 including shipping ono I take paypal. Cheers Laurence

  5. This may stupid but of you have a picture I'm building a pedal board and want to see how big it is
  6. Velvet Animas or Evah weich's with a cash adjustment haven't tried the Weichs yet so I'm interested as I reckon they'll be better on the bow
  7. Bump I'm for trades I need some new strings
  8. Just spent 2 days in the studio recording various music song etc. all the points above are right on the money, yes you need a good bass the right strings etc. and a good mic. I'm a big fan of ribbon mics but my biggest observation is the better I play the better I sound recorded.
  9. That would be great what sort of money are you wanting for them? Cheers Laurence
  10. Hi Guys Does anyone have an Anima E I killed my last one and with new bridge set up the Animas sound ace. Cheers Laurence
  11. Well I now have a Full Circle on my bass and it feels and sounds great. I'd like to say a big thank you to Martyn Bailey who retro fitted it for me and did an excellent job. Hopefully this will really help I'm going to run it straight in to my Avalon U5 then in to my DB751 al a Stefan Crump and see how that works. I'm hoping to get a Troll Ribbon Mic off Brandon to demo which I'll send to house then run the signal back in to my in-ears. I really want to see what that's like. Anyone tried the Big E with an Acoustic Image head with a mic?
  12. Hi Guys Here is a Bassbalseriet Studio II Active pickup http://www.bassbalsereit.de/ In good working order, sounds great and can even be tuned to change the sound of the pickup to match your bass. I'm doing some really high volume gigs and this pickup though it sounds great doesn't do ot for me in that situation, I've switched back to a Full Circle. It is active and you will need Phantom power to make it work due the pre-amp built in to the XLR. I'm also including a 10-db in-line attenuator which helps with the gain the pickup produces it works fine with 10"s but if you have a 5" driver it can distort it. You will need a skilled luthier to have it fitted as you need to conical hole drill in on the bass side of the bridge. Martyn Bailey just did some work on my bridge and is first rate we did by post and it's perfect. These babies RRP AT 439.00 EUROS, plus another 40 EUROS for the Attenuator so I'm asking £ 175.00 ONO. PLEASE NOTE MINE SYSTEM DOEN'T HAVE OPTIONAL DI/PHANTOM POWER BOX, I use an Acoustic Image head Cheers Laurence See info below [b] Bassbalsereit / ANS[/b] This pickup consists of a conical brass pin which is 4 cm long and as thick as a pencil. This pin is put into a conical hole drilled into the top end of the foot of the bridge. If you turn this brass pin in the bridge, you can adapt the sound to your instrument. Besides the passive version two improved active versions has recently been introduced: the AKTIV and the STUDIO version. For these both pickups, a tiny preamp (sized 4 x 6 mm) has been built into the brass cone. A suitableDI box with phantom power supply is available, so it can easily be used with all kind of bassamps and mixing consoles. Bassbalsereit AKTIV is an unbalanced active version of this pickup. The preamp is powered by phantom power from e. g. a mixing console, preamp or DI box like the Bassbelasereit DI box, which is available as an option. Bassbalsereit STUDIO is a balanced version of the active Bassbalsereit. It has a very natural sound (arco and pizzicato), and the signal-to-noise ratio below -100db. The Bassbalsereit AKTIV and STUDIO pickups work with 7–48 V phantom power. While the AKTIV can be used on balanced or unbalanced inputs, a balanced input is mandatory for the studio model. [list] [*]rigid [*]powerful and balanced sound [*]sound and volume can be adjusted by turning the brass cone housing [*]drilling into bridge needed for installation (must be done by qualified luthier) [*]active versions: works with a variety of bassamps and mixing consoles [/list] Don’t know which version fits your needs and your existing equipment best?

  19. Ok I made the decision to go back to the Full Circle I called Martyn Bailey (who is excellent by the way), thanks Geoff, he recommended the 1/4 UNC version and is going to fit the pickup in to my existing bridge and is going to remove the Schertler Stat B Vintage and probably the Bassbalseriet pickup as both are not great at higher volumes. I'm still very interested in the BigE I'd like to know what you think Geoff as you are familiar with me as a player etc. and it how compares to your Wizzy M Line 1x12. I was going to plug my Full Circle in to my Avalon U5 al a Marc Johnson then in to my DB751 & DB212, which I believe Stefan Crump does on bigger gigs, no I'm not taking it just for jazz I do a pop gig after our swing set. I kind of gave up gigging jazz 2 years ago for personal reasons but really want to start gigging again and want one rig that does it all rather than having loads of kit.
  20. I got a loan of an Underwood from Tom but I need to go to my luthier to have it fitted, I'm searching for 1 pickup does it all. I reckon the best sound I had was a Fishman Full Circle in to an amp and a DPA 4099 in to FOH but loud gigs I need to be away from drums and guitar amps. My only problem with the Fishman was the piezo quack you get when recorded but I was using Olives back then and that might change with another string. I see Mike Arnapol uses one as does Rick Jones owner of Acoustic Image, so I seriously thinking of going back to that, plus I could plug it straight in to my monster Aguilar rig al a Stefan Crump I'm fasinated with by the BigE but it's a bit of a leap of faith ordering one blind without being able to test one, I still love the Acoustic Image but it's not for this gig. Any idea on price on BigE MA45
