  1. gumtree glasgow has the HB5 and cab for £80 - for the cost of a few caps, tubes and a bit of a re solder you could have a nice practice recording rig for very little money
  2. That's what I expected but thought it better to seek the collective knowledge. The amp will do 900w bridged at 2 ohms if the memory serves me correct. Thanks again guys. Possibly the greatest web resource ever Gavin
  3. Ok so I've been posted this question and am at a bit of a loss to answer it 100% confidently. I have an Eden power amp that can run in stereo - two inputs and two out puts - but a potential buyer has asked if he can run the channels independently so one channel running the bass signal clean to a 4 ohm cab and the second channel running effects to a 8 ohm cab. I've tried to find out as much info as I can but keep coming up short. In my mind I think it would be fine but you would naturally get diffent output volume due to the cabs being different ohm ratings. Can anyone point me in the right direction cause I don't wanna sell this only to have it meltdown on the guy. So to recap can I run two different impedance cabs off this Eden WT1000 power amp without creating a black hole? Cheers for any advice
  4. 5've PM'd you already but just to geive you a bump.... Can you confirm it's Olympic white and not arctic white? I've a lovely tort p/g needing a new home
  5. Anyone tried these out?
  6. Updated OP see up top!
  7. A few years ago Squier discontinued the '51 guitar as it was being snapped up by the mod-ing guys. It was too good for the money was the general consensus - It looks like they have just made a bass version as their anni model. A combination of lots of different features I'd rather have a USA '11 P bass with the 60th neck plate.
  8. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9o3cnfKiEe4"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9o3cnfKiEe4[/url] a vid of a feedback looper and dirt box. Nothing special but I like the way has a 'cock wah' type tone in places. Adds a synth like edge to the tone at time. All tones in the vid are done with adjusting the vol control on a p bass and the feedback pedal volume.
  9. Trust me plenty of lust! Even though I've got a lovely Fender P bass with a NP4 and a nice juicy fat russian paper in oil cap running into an Aguilar DB 924 for the active boost (through a soon to arrive loop pedal) this P makes me all gassy!
  10. Cheers folks I was thinking that but just the fact that the p/g was adonised I had a shudder that I'd need to do something fancy! It's gonna look sweet on the bass - very 50's vibe!
  11. Hey I've got a '08 P bass and want to put a new pg on it for an upcoming gig giving it that retro look. The new gold ano p/g arrived this morning just before I set out for work and I was wondering do I need to ground it or shield it? Wanna get this answered before I put it on and discover loads of noise etc. Thanks in advance for your collective input - I'd normally google but our firewall is quite restrictive at work but it does let me get on BC!
  12. Heading West in an hour bump!
  13. Looks like I've got a trade offer lined up with a guy in th UK selling one of these. If that falls through I'll get in touch
  14. Found out we wont be getting stage time until we get there but the good news is its a free gig! All you Glasgow bodies who fancy a free night of music come to the box !
  15. Cool. If you follow Jump: Press A on twitter or facebook we'll update stage times etc but if you catch any of the bands it will be worth the trek down.
  16. Jan 28th The Lot Edinburgh As part of its final series of gigs before it's closure 'The Lot' will be hosting the final Tiger|Town promotions night at this delighful venue in Edinburghs' Grassmarket which will be sorely missed. Jump:Press A will be playing a rare acoustic set which will be a delicious arual treat. Also on the bill are: Neoviolet, Caroline Gilmour, Aaron Shanley and Amy Duncan. We're on second last but come down and catch the other acts. Some quality tunage will be delivered! If you need anymore info pm me or search for the myspaces and facebooks..... Become a friend!
  17. I think this is a friend of mines old pedal - Did you get it from a guy in Edinburgh? Its a great pedal and the Damage Control gear is awesome! Bets of luck!
  18. Been instructed to drop to £175 buyer picks up postage bump
  19. This very nice chap drove up from newcastle to try out and then buy a bass from me. Hassle free and a delight to deal with. He's new to the forum, only joined so he could get my bass. Turns out he might be posting in the for sale section soon too - you can buy with confidence. G
  20. I concur I think the revisions from 08 are really good. I actually changed from a Lakland BG P bass to keep the Fender as I felt it played better!
  21. Pic's added as requested
  22. I used this for a while P bass>Aguilar DB928>Bassdrive>power amp>cab and I was heard just as well as when using an amp and cab set up. My favourite set up was at a recent acoustic gig - bass (with flats)>DB928>Radial DI easy to carry and I sounded as good as any other gig I've done with a decent sound tech. Dont be fooled folks - if the sound guy or girl (Hello Nora at Henry's Edinburgh) is worth their salt it can have a huge impact no matter what your packing. I think often we're as well going straight to the desk in some places - by the time you fiddle about or have the hassle of gear or rock up and find a 60 peavey or marshall practice amp that no one is gonna hear on stage anyway. I know I know heresy!
  23. Hey my buddy is selling this pedal and I offered to post it here for him. Greedtone OD pedal - Volume and Drive controls and two footswitches - one for on/off the second to switch between More/Less drive. Huge amount of volume available and a really nice OD. Kicking in the More adds a whole extra level of drive plus a boost however you can set it up with the volume adjusted for the 'more drive' setting as your standard drive tone. From my brief rumble on this with guitar and bass it has a great quality to it and its VERY tube like. Equally at home on guitar or bass I tried this through a bassman clone to really drive the tubes and I compared it to the Bassman set to a dirty tone (through another amp) and it totally nails a pushed valve head/amp. I also did a side-by-side with a Fulltone Bass Drive and it has an equally delicious drive. Its a lot of dime - He's after £200ovno posted and insured but what you get is a hand built pedal that is exactly the same as used by Pearl Jam, Minus the Bear and a whole host of bands......some of them not even from Seattle Im not sure how many if these are actually kicking about and Im guessing that they are numbered in order from the first one and not a yearly basis as Greg makes them to order and doesn't keep a stock pile. I'm only going by the info I've been given so please correct me if you know otherwise. Them Crooked Vultures Josh and JPJ both use these but I cant find any pic's to verify that for the tone hounds out there. Im expecting pic's tomorrow including one of the hand signed, back plate. Pedal spec has been lifted from the web site and uses very high quality parts. The pedal looks great and if you go to the website www.greedtone.com you can link to some bands who use this and hear their tracks. Features: True-Bypass Built-in Proprietary Noise Reduction Circuitry 3-Color, Dual LED Switch Indicators Dual Stomp Switches (on/off, more/less) Fully Adjustable Volume and Gain 100% Lead-Free Silver Solder Silver Mica Caps (for cleaner highs!) Works with a standard Boss style 9V Pics below:
  24. Up for grabs is a USA Fender P5- I've been playing this for a few months but im still not 100%confident with the extra sting! Going back to my 4 string feels more natural to me however I do do enjoy playing the 5er aarrrgggghh decisions decisions! I had taken a decision to advertise both and see which one went first but ultimately Im more into the 4 as it just feels right to me and as I put a NP4 pick up in it and a new fat cap to make it a bit more 'vintage' sounding I just feel closer to the old girl. Im a sentimental fool I know. The 5 sounds great and has some Dr Low Riders (I may have misquoted myself elsewhere saying they were HiBeams but rest assured they are Low riders! Spec below and pic's upon request tho I'll fire a few up on here once I get back from work. The case isincluded and im after £750 shipped.
