As stated above, depends on whether or not you have the lightshow to warrant using 'smoke' or similar. If you want to accentuate lasers/LED/Par cans and maximise their effect a hazer is the way to go IMO. The mere fact you can 'fool' the average landlord or club committee when they see the small black box chuffing at the back of the stage by telling them it's not a smoke machine but a hazer is a big plus point

[size=4]If you have a DMX controlled hazer they have both an output (to control the amount of mist) and a fan (to control the speed it is propelled from the machine)[/size]

[size=4]We found we could set these two functions so that a constant but minimum visible haze was always coming from the hazer. By setting the hazer off one minute before going onstage we ensured there was never a big whoosh of white smoke that usually results in complaints, but the lightshow would still cut through the almost [/size]invisible[size=4] [/size][size=4]haze without anyone really noticing it was coming from the hazer at the back [/size]

[size=4]Anyone know what the bass is? I saw one very similar locally and it sounded amazing, I've wondered what it was since then![/size]

Big thanks and congrats to everyone who runs this site, and of course those who contribute

There'll be not much from me these days though

Somebody got a bargain beauty on the way by the looks of it, cracking bass at an excellent price!
The boy Gaz may regret letting that one go, unless of course there is an incoming Status......

[quote name='gazhowe' timestamp='1394475852' post='2391728']
Really nice looking bass and a good price. If I hadn't ordered one just before this came up for sale I would have been seriously tempted by this. GLWTS.

You've got enough basses already you.....

Great band, famous for their superb vocals and harmonies, and lovely light and shade in that song. One of the most talented bands up here in the Northeast and still garn strong, excellent Mr WoT!

I recently got to play this beauty at the NE Bass Bash and loved it Fantastic tonal range and a definitive MWAAAAAAH to be had from this lovely looking and sounding fretless. If you are in the market for your first fretless you could do a lot worse than this beauty, and if you want to improve on the one you already have - this could be what you have been looking for Plus of course it's on sale from the world famous Mr Hunt, purveyor of fine basses and all round decent chap, what more could you ask for? Have a bump on me Sir, for that is one lovely fretless

Jonna if this sells I'd have yours in a heart beat

Now you know that mine is going nowhere in this lifetime, it's still getting played in the house.... Get this Overwater sold and go and find your own [size=4].......and have another bump on me [/size]

Hahaha not me John, means I can come out and WATCH you mate Really unfortunate circumstances considering we were intent on performing one last 'Hoorah' just to pull the curtain down on what has been an absolute blast And after playing guitar for over 40 years Bobby now has to mentally and physically come to terms with and overcome this major hurdle - I cannot begin to imagine how daunting it is for him. Absolute lovely top bloke, and brilliant player, such a great shame.....

These pics capture what unexpectedly turned out to be our last gig New jobs and shiftwork meant we could no longer continue, and the week after we split, our guitarist (with the Les Paul) had his forefinger on his left hand amputated between the first two knuckles following an accident, totally devastating. Taken at The Office pub in South Shields in August, one of the best live venues we have in publand up here.

[font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][size=6]W11ATO where are you ?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [/size][/font]

[quote name='W11ATO' timestamp='1378716460' post='2203456']
Lots of interest but no sale yet type bump.

Having tried BassTool's NT Thumb at yesterday's North East Bass Bash, I'd consider a trade for one of those bad boys

I knew it I saw a little bit of dribble from the side of his mouth...... Haway man Rob, your collection is just gonna keep improving at this rate and you can only play one at a time, dunno how you are gona decide which one to pick up . Have a bump on me, and having seen this beauty in the flesh I can confirm this is an absolute steal at a fantastic price - someone will be very happy with this great bass Good luck with your Thumb search

Bought a superb TC amp from Ben, mint condition, mint bloke.
Buy/sell with confidence, top gadgee Ben

Very nice :-)

Do you have any trades in mind? I've a beautiful Overwater Perception Deluxe for sale that I could trade?

Cheers
Rob
[/quote] You liked my Thumb didn't you Rob

You didn't mention this little minx whilst trying to flog me the MusicMan fretless Mr Hunt..... Last week I would have been round to try this with the money in my pocket. This week............ I found myself with no band

Nice Wal
[/quote]

Imagine the look on my face when I walked in and saw that beautiful Wal with a £375 price tag on it! I was just about to race to the bank when Warwick Hunt spotted my dropped jaw and pointed out that the tag had been switched from one of W11ATO's other 'For Sale' basses.....

That'll be me struggling with one too many strings

Brilliant afternoon, great to put faces to names and some stunning gear on display RK's Overwater (and Martin it's luthier!) the two Letts basses (plus the concrete one!) W11ATO's Wal amongst his other impressive basses ('me wife has bags and shoes, I have basses' he told me ) Gaz Howe's Status and Warwick Hunts purple Warwick and lovely Music Man fretless to name just a few. WOT's latest Fender also deserves a mention, superb bass and those TKS cabs.....WOW!!!! If I was going for ultra lightweight but powerful and VFM backline these babys would need serious consideration, great when played next to - but when we stepped away from them - even better Met and listened to some great players, but highlight of the day for me was Kev Charlton's masterclass on his double bass - made me feel like getting back in the car and burning me gear..... Class!! Big thanks to WOT for organising a great afternoon out, cheers everyone Johna

Excellent Michael

Is the above available for purchase?
[/quote]
Purchase?? I was hoping they were going to be in the raffle..........

[quote name='gazhowe' timestamp='1376509591' post='2175283']
I'm planning to go too as I missed the last one.
[/quote] .....and I'm hoping to be coming along with Gaz - shifts permitting I'll bring some basses, an extremely small amp, and my stageClix wireless for peeps to try out. Johna

I've now been using this unit almost every weekend for just under two years now, and it recently stopped working at the transmitter end, the knuckle joint appearing to be the problem. Plugging a lead into my bass again was weird After contacting the company at [email="[email protected]"][email protected][/email] their technical depts Gerda Posch asked me to send it over to the Netherlands where the team would check it out. It was returned to me two weeks later - they replaced the transmitter with a new one and also a new battery....for NO CHARGE!! Superb service
