  1. I broke an A once with my old blues / Cream band... not good when most tunes were in A or E. I didnt havea spare either, long time ago now... not enough money for spares.... so ended up basically looked like Wooten flying up and down the neck playing blue / 12 bar patterns. Highly amusing for our guitarist.
  2. OMG its up for sale again... ...must...resist
  3. Cool! Be sure to post your findings with the 4 Pro when you`ve had time to give it a good run out! I gotta say, my 5 Pro and the SVT610 is basically the sound ive always wanted... id always GASsed since a kid for the SVT2 stack but the 5 Pro actually suits me a whole lot better.
  4. [quote name='OldGit' post='835470' date='May 12 2010, 05:05 PM']Just 4 basses? Didn't think that was possible [/quote] brilliant!!! Id missed that when the show was acually on, cheers
  5. [quote name='dood' post='834923' date='May 12 2010, 12:08 AM']Wow! I was just posting an old rig pic elsewhere and found this! It's probably the only pic I have of my ole Sheehan Pre! [/quote] haha, the BSP! As dood well knows ive perved over one of them for a while, but given their rarity I had to go for the SVT5 when it came up. Not regretting it!!! (Although my back muscles might in time, hehe)
  6. Im loving the SVT 5 - cant recommend it highly enough! The only thing that lets it down is the compressor, not the best... but everything else is just super smashing great as Jim Bowen would say. The octaver is pure sub sound, awesome noise! The drive channel has a boost button to get extra aggro and fith out of it, absolutely splendid
  7. [quote name='Mog' post='834763' date='May 11 2010, 10:06 PM']Jimmy was the true genius in pumpkins IMO. His drumming was top drawer. Everything else is overproduced nonesense from Billly. Even Celebrity Skin sounded like a Pumpkins demo, as does the new Hole album. Suppose the point I'm trying to make is that BC has a template for a band and he's gonna stick to it. I thought with Melissa it could have worked well as she has a great voice and sings superb harmonies. AFAIC the best days of Pumpkins are long gone. Think I'll give Siamese Dream a spin.........[/quote] Some of JC's stuff on Zeitgeist was some of his best stuff IMO. Saw them on that tour at the O2 and... well... he is the dog's bollocks.
  8. seriously, this is still here? I keep thinking about this bass, the pictures are haunting me... too cool for words... someone please buy this before I sell my soul / kidneys to purchase it [i]edit - looks like bassatnight may have this? my bank manager will be pleased.[/i]
  9. My favourite band ever ever ever ever. And another hot female bassist - can only be good news. Basically whatever they will do next will be essentially the same as everything else they've done - Billy writes everything, drummer chirps in every now and then.... should be interesting to see how the new drummer copes with it all, particularly following someone so technically excellent as JC.
  10. groovy, cheers Shawn, a lovely addition to your impressive rack system!!!
  11. Can I play it now please mate? ;-)
  12. If I hadnt just bought my SVT id be all over this. A truly stunning looking bass
  13. sexy. I wish my Ric was FG but you cant have everything. Lovely piece
  14. SVT610 - best cab ive ever owned. Actually quite portable IMO with the towel bar and kick plate, rails on the back too. Quality, QUALTY cab.
  15. I just bought one of these (not from BC). Stunningly awesome rock amp. Two separate amps and a valve pre make this a grunty tone beast. Oh, and the drive channel (which has an extra boost button) can be made to sound almost like a Big Muff in its intensity.
  16. Im thinking about one of these for next month's pay packet... and since you have exactly the same amp as me I know how it will look as well... cannot afford anything at the moment but maybe next month
  17. 'Zis amplifier is now *sold* pending payment!!!
  18. Ahahahahahaha! I recognise that!!! Its a beast of a cab. The only reason I sold it is because its quite deep width-wise, sound-wise its classic Trace Series 6 loveliness! For £120 again I think its a barg. You wont find much info about it, what little I found out was in this lil` document [url="http://www.britishaudioservice.com/inst/SERIES%206.pdf"]http://www.britishaudioservice.com/inst/SERIES%206.pdf[/url] Hope that helps! Matt is a good man to deal with too
  19. and oh yer sorry about the fag burns lol
  20. For sale, rather reluctantly, is my fantastic Ampeg B2RE amplifier! These amps are absolutely superb - 450 watts of pure power into a 4 ohm cabinet. Ampeg stuff as we all know is built like military hardware, its legendarily tough and this is no exception. Its also protected by a Gator 2U rack case, the best in the business - lockable as well, all the latches work perfectly. I like to look after my kit . For the amp and the case at gak.co.uk = Amp is £521, case is £74 - so grab yourself a deal! Im only selling because ive just about to acquire an SVT Pro, and I dont need two heads. The amp even comes with the warranty tag still attached and the original manual, so you'll be buying an amp which still has 4 years warranty left on it at least! The only issue is that I removed the rubber feet to get it in the flight case, which I have since lost, but I imagine you will want to keep this racked anyway so it doesnt get any unsightly knocks to it - its been racked since day one of purchase so doesnt have a single scratch on it. Im looking for £350 for the lot, given its condition, the warranty, and the current price for both amp and rack I think thats a fair price. Im also in no rush to sell it... so not really wanting any offers ta, although any interesting pre-amp or bass trades will of course be entertained! More than welcome to come round and give it a whack through my SVT cab, or bring your own cabs - drop me a PM if interested [attachment=48314:DSC01102.JPG] [attachment=48315:DSC01106.JPG] [attachment=48316:DSC01104.JPG] [attachment=48317:DSC01105.JPG]
  21. Just like to say, I used this amp for many years (not exactly sure how many) and its a cracker. For the money asked its a great deal! Big thumbs up for the compressor on here as well, really good comp.
  22. ??? why has this not been sold? Amazing price
  23. I was present watching Dood using those Hartke's at "Bass'N'Biscuits" on Monday - it really is his tone, the tone I heard the first time I saw him aaaaaages ago with 2x Hartke 4.5's and an SVT2 on top (although on Monday it was a V-Type... still valvey lol). Im still GASsing for certain things, may be buying what in essence is my dream amp over the weekend... watch this space - hopefully that will be the end of my "tone search"!
