    Spam attacks

    Steve, [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=28825&st=40&p=595173&#entry595173"]back in September[/url] I asked whether you were using [url="http://www.botscout.com"]Botscout[/url], to which 'Machines' said he'd look into it — presumably you didn't, or weren't able to, integrate it into IP Board? From what you've described of the latest forms of attack I concede that it won't prevent all of those strategies but it has certainly helped reduce spamming attempts on three different SMF forums I'm using it with ... I also concede I use manual approval of registrations, which is definitely an extra pain in the bum!

    Hi James, thanks for the bump. Yes I'm reminded that you heard this pair driven by my LMII and also the ABM Combo No they haven't sold yet, as John, who is certainly very interested, is focusing on his own sales first and that's fine — if there's other interest in the meantime then so be it ... As you know, I've been thinking of selling these for some time but there's been no urgency — I took advantage of a bright day to finally get around to taking some shots outdoors, hence this ad at long last! They're too good to be sitting around unused but now that I have something a bit lighter ...

    11/06/2010 Apologies — should have updated this topic ages ago ... This is my Ashdown ABM stack comprising Mini 15 and Mini 48 cabs, both acquired separately in secondhand purchases. Please note the following: [list] [*]I'd prefer to sell them as a pair unless there's no interest shown (within a reasonable time); [*]Collection only from Buckingham (nr M/Keynes) - but am willing to entertain meeting up part-way if you're collecting from a considerable distance; [*]Payment - cash on collection preferred or by PayPal in advance (as gift payment); [*]I'm supplying them with new ROQSOLID covers worth ~£60; [*][b]All-inclusive price is £420[/b]. No interest in trades, thank you ... [*]ABM Mini 48 - the older of the pair, serial: 18121-0504 (May 04), this is in excellent condition; [*]ABM Mini 15 - serial 23805-0606 (June 06), this is in very good condition with some minor cosmetic defects low down on front and a couple underneath. [/list]I've taken a complete set of pics of both, from all angles, that you can view [url="http://247p.co.uk/abm"]here[/url] at two different resolutions and here's some thumbnails that link to the same gallery: [center][url="http://247p.co.uk/abm/"][/url] [url="http://247p.co.uk/abm/"][/url] [url="http://247p.co.uk/abm/"][/url] [url="http://247p.co.uk/abm/"][/url][/center] And just in case you're unfamiliar with the technical specs: [b]ABM Mini 48[/b]: 4x 8"; 600W RMS (cont); 8 Ohm; 75Hz - 20kHz; 102dB, 1W@1mtr; 495h x 475w x 335d (19.5" x 18.7" x 13.2"); 30kg / 66lbs.

    I still have my Peterson P100G in its solid mahogany cabinet — it's been my backup amp for more than 10 years and goes to every gig with me even now! Some Peterson history that I can add: Pete Tulett was the Managing Director of Peterson, but they were actually manufactured by Elvic Electronics of Wethersfield (nr. Braintree) in Essex, who have long-since morphed into [url="http://www.neutronics.ltd.uk"]Neutronics Limited[/url]. They are a family owned firm and know these amps inside-out — afaik you can still buy spares for them and have them (or other amps) repaired by them. I have a price-list from April 1991 which lists these (that are relevant here): P120H £442 (in hardwood cab); P120 HF £430 (in flightcase); P120HB £408 (in black vinyl cab). Power was 150 W with 8ohm extension cab.

    Just bought a Comfort Strapp XL from Owain — great communications and fast delivery (despite the postal strike) of an excellent strap, almost mint, exactly as advertised! I'm very pleased and would have no hesitation in dealing with Owain again ...

    Spamming attacks

    Gadge replied to Kiwi's topic in Site News

    Having just read the topic [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=60242"]"Can the idiot who's posting porn links be blocked?"[/url] I was wondering if you're aware of [url="http://botscout.com"]BotScout[/url]? I implemented it on a couple of my SMF forums a while ago and it's been very successful in reducing the incidence of unwanted bots — just thought I'd ask ...

    Is that the EQ700 7-band pedal? If so, I have one of these that I bought for use in the effects loop of a Vox AD60VTX modelling guitar amp, to beef up the dynamics, which worked quite well ... I just tried it in the effects loop of my Markbass LMII and it works fine, down to low B, on all bands — did you try yours in an amp's effects loop or inline with the input? Or with a guitar amp? (I should add I've used mine similarly with two or three different all-valve guitar amps and it worked well, considering it's a budget pedal). Which were the two frequency bands you found to work? Just trying to ascertain whether yours really is duff, or not?

    I bought [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=54745"]Nathan's Ashdown ABM Mini 48[/url] extension cab, which was as advertised in really good condition. We had excellent communications beforehand and he was very amenable, taking a long lunch-break to allow time for a test and chat — makes a decent cuppa too! I have no hesitation in recommending him to others ...

    Having read all the postings here in support of Peter it's virtually impossible to find any superlatives that haven't already been used! Based upon our communications yesterday and meeting today, I can only agree with all my fellow 'victims' in that it's been an excellent transaction and I'm very pleased to have met him in person! What's even better is that he delivered it to me at Rothersthorpe Services (M1, J15A) on his way down to Essex — fantastic! I bought his Markbass LMII, Korg DTR-2000 and DBX 166XL in a 4U Boschma rack (all in top-notch condition) and couldn't wait to get them hooked up once I got home — I thought I was being a typical RTFM-retard when I couldn't get any sound out of it, so checked again all the connections before thinking that there was perhaps something wrong with the LMII !! Fortunately I'm good at trouble-shooting and it didn't take me long to discover that this LMII doesn't like Speakon clones — it works perfectly (and repeatedly) when connected using pukka Neutrik Speakon connectors — I thought it worth mentioning here ... Many thanks, Peter!

    With the way I seem to collect musical paraphernalia, I didn't think it would take me long to buy something from a fellow forumite — 9 days in fact, (not that I'm claiming it as a record)! I have fairly old-fashioned values and a perfect feedback score on eBay (~400), so fully intend to be honourable here! Just hope I can keep the GAS under control ...
