  1. [quote name='geilerbass' post='633589' date='Oct 22 2009, 05:17 PM']I have one of these. The power supply connector is the same size as 9v supplies, but obviously it needs to feed off 18v. I think Diago do [url="http://www.diago.co.uk/component/page,shop.product_details/flypage,shop.flypage/product_id,39/category_id,3/manufacturer_id,0/option,com_virtuemart/Itemid,206/"]an adaptor[/url] for this, but it's a bit pricey. You can use 2x 9v batteries to power it, if getting hold of an 18v supply is a problem.[/quote] thanks, didnt even know those existed! also i believe the dunlop power brick also powers it. i never had a supply for it, always used batteries. oh and born 2b mild, i already have jazz pups, looking for black hardware for a jazz or a preamp
  2. yes, will fit pretty much any fender. still up for grabs! dont forget i'm also taking trades on any black jazz type hardware!
  3. price drop to £100 anyone??
  4. seems no one is going for this so i'll price drop to 50, i want to shift it.

  6. [quote name='Leftbass' post='628885' date='Oct 17 2009, 05:42 PM']Hi mate any possible pics and a guide price?[/quote] pics will be up today hopefully. as for guide price, hmm say 70 posted?
  7. need a black bridge for my project so this is up for sale. Its used but in good nick, and has been cut. These are stupid money on ebay right now, but i wont be greedy, as long as i get enough to buy a black bridge of equal quality. Comes without screws. Open to tradestrades
  8. Still for sale.
  9. [quote name='Spoombung' post='619708' date='Oct 7 2009, 04:24 PM']I'm not sure that's the case. That guy has been working on it for ages now and still hasn't even got a working model. There's a lot of mouth but not much trouser going on in that Talkbass thread. The thing to remember is the Wal pickup works in a perfect symbiotic relationship with it's preamp. Both are ingenious and devilishly complicated to reverse engineer because of their complexity.[/quote] he's got a prototype ready...
  10. no problem, if anyone is interested and they think 140 is too high, i am open to offers.
  11. [quote name='BigRedX' post='619392' date='Oct 7 2009, 10:53 AM']For those who need a Wal bass that's the price they are take it or leave it. For those who just want a custome bass there are plenty of other luthiers that can build you something of quality for less. None of them will will have all the features that make a Wal bass what it is though.[/quote] this. although theres a poster over on talkbass who's currently reverse engineering a wall pickup/preamp so he can build his own version. you'll be seeing wal soundalikes soon.....
  12. Someone was looking for this in the items wanted section last week but never got back to me, so its up for sale. Its in excellent condition as it was only used at home a few times before going into storage. one of lesser condition had a BIM on ebay recently of £140 stg, as they're rare, so im gonna start there. it does not have the powersupply i'll also take in trade (part or full) any of the following any black hardware for a geddy jazz (machine heads, pickguard, plates bridge etc) any decent jazz pickups/preamps any decent pickup/preamps for an OLP levin. pics can be uploaded if needed
  13. I used to own a stingray 5 and have just recently got an OLP levin, and with regards to the neck/body, it would be like comparing a very well made MIM or MIJ with a MIA fender
  14. mr x = misdirects??
  15. I'll bump this as i own one of these rigs and they're a great little home amp. i've even done a couple of small gigs with it. good luck with the sale.
  16. my first decent amp back in the late 90's was an all silver trace elliot 2x10 200w combo. i believe it could be considered a gp12 as it had a 12 band graphic (with the red low b frequency) but i've never seen one before or since, and i've never found any info on them. i traded it in for an ashdown evo 500 4x10 combo in 2002 and, while i loved the ashdown, i still to this day miss that trace. the speakers may have been nearing the end of their life, but it had mojo. does this model ring any bells with anyone? apart from mine, every trace i've seen was green. i'd love to know the history of them.
  17. not to rain on your parade but i think you may be overpricing the whammy II just a bit. these usually go for 100 -200 dollars on ebay. then original wh1 is the expensive one. the bass whammy, while expensive is a bit better considering what i've seen them go for.
  18. Lizzy's L&D also has crowd noise from a live bowie album, as visconti produced both.
  19. Sounds like the strings have helped. I dont use slinkys, are they nickel? i've always found nickel strings go duller quicker for me, which is why i'll always use steels if i can, i also prefer the sound of them. for a tool-esque sound you'll need to dial in more mid, your treble seems fine, and also some kind of preamp/od to add a little grit. we're not talking full on distortion, just something left on all the time to give it some bite (justin from tool uses a rat) hope that helps.
  20. what, no makita drill??
  21. i got a schecter studio 4 fretless in a trade last year, but to be honest it got very little use. i've been trying to shift it locally for the past few months with no takers, but a guy is willing to take a look at it in exchange for an olp levin. I used to use a SR5 years ago (but it wasnt a good one, but i digress) and i'm fond of narrow string spacing, and i'd probably use a 5 string more. I've never played a levin, but i think i'd like it......should i do it?
  22. any chance you'd be selling the spare OLP pickup? bass looks really nice by the way!
