    [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1394100875' post='2387859'] If that's too high-gain (i.e. breaks up easily into distortion) for your tastes, try the next step down which is the AT7. That's a roughly 40% drop in gain level leading to a much later break-up. [/quote] This is good advice, and there's great info [url="http://www.thetubestore.com/Resources/Guitar-Amp-Info/Gain-Factor"]here[/url] which will give you more info on this subject. I swapped out my 12AX7/ECC83 preamp valves for 12AT7/ECC81s when I owned an LB30 and it cleaned it up wonderfully. I could also hear differences between makes, but only when listening back to a/b recordings I made: live they made little if any difference in a band context.

    I sold a speaker cable to Ted. A small deal, but completed without any fuss, and I would happily deal with him again

    Very pricey for a later version Pro series, but a very nice example. I'm pretty sure there are other birds eye facing versions out there though....

    I sold Pablo a small amp bag. A simple transaction, but completed with great communication and the minimum of fuss.

    I'm in Orlando this summer. Aiming to take the trip to BC at some point.

    Much, much better to keep the bass at home. Your home is probably the most stable environment, in terms of temp an humidity.

    And the long one on hold for Mart

    Hello all I only bought [url="http://www.monocreators.com/mono-M80-tick.asp"]this[/url] recently, but have decided to stick with a back pack for leads n' stuff. It's surprisingly roomy and, like all MONO stuff, really well put together. I particularly like the removable zipped pocket inside, and the tool/pen flap. Mine is the steel grey version, as above. Only compatible with M80 and Vertigo bags that have the three D rings on the front. Condition is minty fresh. New, these are £69. I'd like £59 posted, no offers thanks. Cheers Gareth

    I have two speakon - jack speaker cables for sale, both made by our very own OBBM. They have been used just a handful of times. In fact, I don't think the longer cable has ever been used! #1 is 90cm long (cable length, not including jacks) and has a 1/4" jack on one end and a NL2FX Speakon on the other. #2 is 40cm and has a 1/4" jack on one end and a NL2FC Speakon on the other. Cable for both is high-capacity 4mm Klotz cable. I'd like £12.50 for cable #1 and £10 for cable #2. Postage extra.

    Sold a strap to Pinball. Communication was top notch and payment very quick. Happy to deal with him again.
  17. franzbassist
    Maybe a BC bulk order is required?
  18. franzbassist

    [quote name='Platypus' timestamp='1393533144' post='2381668'] So, what's your initial thoughts on the Demeter? [/quote] Haven't had a chance to give it a good run yet, but aim to do so this weekend. My first impression is that it's like the Demeter pre I had a few years back: terrific weight and presence to each note, but always clean and articulate.

    I bought a Boss pedal from Carlos. It was just as decribed (mint) and his communicatons were superb throughout. He even shipped it UPS. No hesitation in recommending him at all. Thanks Carlos!

    Bag sold so price adjusted accordingly.

    [quote name='Musicman20' timestamp='1393511663' post='2381239'] Did you change from the CN212 to the HD210? How are you finding the differences? Nice setup. I've always wanted a TF. PS - Just out of interest, if Barrie etc is around, are there any DI versions of this head left? [/quote] I think that stock level is a mistake, as I am pretty sure the DI versions are not built yet. Bass Gear have one non-DI version, which will be at the LBGS this weekend. I prefer the HD210. It's a more traditional sound, not so dry/upper mid heavy as a neo driver, and is a good match with the Demeter as that has terrific presence to the note but without being boomy, much like the HD cab. It's also a good power/power handling match in 400 watts at 8 ohms for both.

    [quote name='tayste_2000' timestamp='1393504247' post='2381068'] Anyway people are only bagging on you to get the DI version so they can buy it off you when you get bored [/quote] LOL
