I think of it as the " B of the Bang" thing that runners do. When in the blocks at the start of a race,they aim to go on the B of the Bang that the gun makes.

True,but its what I use and its never been a problem.You can switch past the ones you dont want before you even hear them

Boss LS2 line selector. 2 LOOPS AND A BYPASS INPUT. Loops A&B have gain controls. Select mode A/B/BYPASS. Each press of the pedal scrolls through and mutes the other 2.

At 48 years, 12khz in the left but only 10khz in the right ear..thats the ear thats been next to drummers for years.

You missed out Kevin Mooney(I think), Sadam And His Pants,was it a Gibson Grabber??

Bought something from Thomann on Saturday,they dont process orders at weekend...at 8.10am today I get a text saying order despeatched and thanks for the custom. Bloody German Efficiency

thanks for the suggestions,I have emailed Maxat SFXSOUND and it seems he has something up his sleeve in the near future so I will be hanging on for now.

Found this on Ebay. Think it may do the trick Item number: 350327666736

Anyone know of a crossover stompbox. I want to split the signal from my bass so that the highs only can run to a delay. Iknow there are lots of rack crossovers,but I want something for my pedalboard. Thanks in advance

Barry Adamson, Bill Black, Bobby Vega. Next week,we will look at the letter "C"!

Then one day it dawned on me ,he was ONLY 27 when he died. All that music and innovation by 27 yeasrs old. That is genius

I thought there was a thread on here about Music Gound going under ,which included some Denmark St shops and the Bass Centre,may have got it wrong

I thought they went into liquidation end of March.

Pick out the melody on the G string ,all the time playing open D as a drone note. Fist note is E on the G string with open D.

Maybe you have a wolftone going on. Try damping the after bridge string length.Cheap option is tie a rubber band around it,or more expensive buy a wolftone eliminator.

[quote name='saxobass' post='802064' date='Apr 10 2010, 07:46 PM']Many thanks. That`s very helpful. Were they the single machine heads or the normal paired doubles?[/quote] The ones I have got are the singles. I am an engineer by trade so take it from me that these are very well made . They are weighty and smooth to turn.The base plate is probably about 3mm thick.Compare that to your current tuners. They look quite ornate,and to be honest I think that they are worth the £100 they cost me. Bloody Chinese!!

I have some of these. They are brass and are actually very good. I was dubious about them so,,,,,,, I bought from a renowned luthier some high quality machines for just over £100. Quess what,they were EXACTLY the same as the Ebay ones for 35/40 quid. Cant remember the luthiers name ,but even after VAT etc ,I bet I coud've saved £40 or so buying from Ebay.

Boss Ls2 line selector.It has loop A and loop B and bypass. A & B have gain controls to match levels.It will do more besides though.

A good rule of thumb passed ont ome ,by somebody in the know. Indoors aprox 5watts of power per person (500 people=2500W) Outdoors approx 15watts per person (500 people=7500W)

My first topic on here,so Hello all. Being more familiar with Upright bass,I do play bass guitar and just got a spare set of strings for my 51 Precision . I bought long scale ,but the binding at the nut end reaches the first fret. What scale length is the Precision? Is there Extra Long Scale?

I always view the fight against feedback as one of 2 ways. The first is to use all your eq tools to stop the feedback.This is fairly easy to do,but will probably leave you with a sound you dont particularly like. The second way is to damp your instrument as outlined above in some way, so that your eq can be used to give you a good amplified tone instead of taking out all the offending frequencies.
