  1. I’ve a cheeky 212 that might be worthy 👍🏽😀
  2. Hey my friend. Good to see you’re still kicking about. If you need someone to give this a road test just to make sure it’s all running smooth I’m happy to offer my services 😀
  3. Realistic price for a cracking bass!
  4. My understanding is that a bass pedal will be a whole new platform rather than a tweak to the Revival Drive.... but it's not at the design stages so likely a long way off.
  5. More speaker cones will give you greater dispersion so a 4ohm 112 will not sound as good as two 8ohm 112 cabs at the same volume...I think.
  6. I'd have it in heart beat if you weren't virtually at the other end of the country. I'd like to try one of these out in anger!
  7. @Holt-85 Any examples of what sound you wish to create? A band or track you're aiming for? A bit of grit from a fuzz pedal sounds like an you're starting from the wrong place but as ever sound example might better define what you're aiming for. My current board has a Bass soul food to give some mids boost and drive within a given song and allow's me to poke out in the mix with a bit of drive on the sound but I have a Darkglass AO for the heavier stuff although it is capable of less heavy tones. Some fuzz pedals might actually remove some mids and you can lose definition. Like any pedal both have their detractors and no one is right or wrong but they work for me in the context I need them to. Mixing a couple of lower gain pedal might be a more effective way of achieving the sound you're after - a cheap used Boss ODB with it clean blend and a 'touch of gain' combined with something a bit more aggressive like a Phat Phuk B was my old trick for getting an edgier tone to fill out some space. A Lomenzo drive from Ashdown might give you the mids push and overall aggression to hit the spot? Too many pedals and twice as many opinions right The guys on this forum are more knowledgeable then me and giving them a starting point in terms of a band/track will reap rewards!
  8. Two handsome instruments! A phrase often heard in the Swinging community!
  9. I use a converted Spyder 550 combo ‘head’ which now lives in a very sturdy *read heavy* headcase which I’d happily sell but it’d be too costly for shipping. As others have said the core tone is fantastic but I simply don’t have the space for a back up following a recent move and my main gigging amp is equally wonderful! For me the Spyder isn’t the most versatile but if you play a p bass, especially if you’re in a rock band and favour a plectrum, then you should really have a Spyder on hand for that gig. I gig mine from time to time just for fun but it’s sadly under-used. To answer the question I haven’t tried tube rolling in mine and it’s got one if each if memory serves me correctly.
  10. Did a trade with Jon. His patience at my sliding doors time lines for delivery was impeccable - moving house and selling a bass should not happen in the same month! As ever BC proves that good people are out there and thanks to his patience and understanding this has been another great transaction. Cheers Jon

    feedback for Deedee

    Dan nabbed my wiring loom and pick up. 'Twas a righteous transaction!
  12. If I ever start a cab company I’m calling it Rattling Cabs 👍🏽😀
  13. The price includes postage and packaging and I get stuff out next day delivery. Pic’s to follow later. So an opportunity has come up to get some pick-ups I’ve been after for a while and this means my p bass is getting a face lift! It also means my SPB-1 and the solder less wiring loom to go with it are up for grabs. This set comes with original SD box and Basschat institution kiOgon’s famous solderless wiring loom. Yhis let’s you get hooked up in minutes with no hassle. I’ll include a snap connector for solderless connection of the ground cable too. It also means once fitted you can try out different pick ups with no soldering hassle. Bellissimo! The pick up info is included below The SPB-1 is a vintage correct split-coil Precision Bass pickup made to look and sound like the late 50s originals. SPB-1 Description The P-bass has defined recorded and live music since its inception, and the Vintage P-Bass pickup nails all the things we love about that distinctive tone. You will get just the right balance of authoritative thump and clear articulation for an authentic P-Bass feel. Our Vintage P-Bass pickup uses hand ground alnico 5 rod magnets, and a vintage coil wind to deliver all of the bold, smooth tone of the late 50s Precision Bass. For what it’s worth I love a p bass and this pick up along with the DiMarzio Model P, the Fender CS’59 and the Bartolini are among my top five. Not sure what the fifth one is but there’s four to start with 😀
  14. Another happy customer. Peter took a comp from me, paid quickly and has been charming in all comms. It was a pleasure, Sir!
  15. Joseph bought some pick ups and as others have said ‘‘twas a painless joy filled experience. Enjoy!
  16. Sold! Sold! Always believe in your soul. You have the power to know etc etc
  17. Sold please close.
  18. Grabbed this to try out and it's immense fun! However my Cali still rules the pedal board for my ear/needs The TonePrint app is about to get amake over so all tweaks etc can be perfomed in app but int the mean time you can use the editor for PC/Mac The comp has a full library of available tone prints which cover the gamut of compression flavours. I've had fun bouncing different comps for different songs and the TC running into the Cali is fooking massive sounding - you'd think they would smother your transients but if fact they multiply the massive! Sounds counter-intuitive but its huge! The pedal is tiny and can snuggle onto a pedal board with minimal disruption to the existing ecosystem. Price includes delivery to UK. Pic's to follow.
  19. Got this for a P/J conversion on a P bass but I have decided to leave it for now due to another hair brained idea I'm currently using the GZR P in my p bass and its a brilliant, classic P bass pick up and it stands up to many of the boutique offerings out there costing much more. I think I prefer the SPB-1 a bit more - can't rationalise it it's just my preference. The J is hum cancelling and I believe they're both AlNiCo 5 mags, custom wound for Geezer. This is a solderless set so no faffing required - I will provide a couple of wee snap connectors for the ground wire coming from your bridge - simply insert the wire from the bridge in one side, wore from the pick up in the other snap it closed and your off - don't strip the wires or you'll get hum - simply pop them in and snap! The set comes boxed with all the pots and wires included. You can be up and running in less than ten minutes! A review of the P/J set is below - price includes UK postage. Any question just ask!
  20. I’m using GHS flats branded as Lakland JO flats. Really nice good tension and wonderful feel. I’m a bit gutted that rounds are working better for my current 5’er gig. Still though the GHS are good. I also like ‘Jazz’ flats. Great tension if you’re new to flats they're not as stiff as some of the big names I.e. Jamerson flats and the like.
