    I'd recommend [url="http://www.themodernfix.co.uk/"]The Modern Fix[/url]. I used to be in a band with the drummer and they are seriously good.

    I have a real love/hate relationship with effects; while I like the idea of using them I find I never actually use them live, so having bought this on a whim I've decided to sell it. It's literally [i]brand new and unplayed[/i]. TC Electronics blurb [url="http://www.tcelectronic.com/novamodulator.asp"]here[/url]. Cheapest I've found is £185, I'd like [b]£150 posted[/b]. Cheers Gareth

    [quote name='philw' post='662153' date='Nov 22 2009, 09:43 PM']Gareth's bass was a Veillette Minotaur. Not originally intended as a piccolo, but can be strung as such.[/quote] The one I had was a custom order for a guy in the States who wanted a nylon super short (26") scale bass. He had it strung ADGC but I changed it to regular EADG tuning, although BEAD worked equally well. Designed for nylon strings. It's a nice instrument and in very good condition, but I moved it on quite quickly as I realised it just wasn't for me.

    I'll be there early next week.

    Bought these on a whim but have decided not to use them. STATUS GRAPHITE BLACK NYLON LONG SCALE - HAND-WOUND 45/65/85/105/130 "A black nylon tape is wrapped around the string which produces a smooth surface with a soft feel. The tone is warm with a slightly lower output. We have used these strings on our electro-acoustic basses with the aim of producing a warm, 'string bass' tone. They work equally well with piezo or magnetic pickups." New and unused. They'd cost you £25 posted from Status, I'd like [b]£22 posted[/b].

    I also moved from an EA iAmp to a Markbass LMK and have no regrets.

    In the short time I've had my EUB I have discovered that, when playing upright, the open string is very definitely your friend!

    Ken Smith makes some very good [url="http://www.kensmithbasses.com/accessories/smithpolish.html"]polishes[/url].

    I have a Veillette Archtop bass arriving very soon. Unlined fretless 5 string. Can't wait!

    Oh how I wish...

    Plain board, side dots.

    I set up like this: Big rig - Markbass LMK into Euphonic Audio NL210 on top of Euphonic Audio CXL112 Mid rig - LMK into NL210 Small rig - LMK into CXL 112 Straight to PA - Basses into Bassbone into PA

    I've decided to hold on to my rig for now. Thanks for the interest though.
  15. franzbassist
    Sold, pending the usual.
  16. franzbassist
    Ah yes, AI heads are great; small and full of clean power.

    I was going to get a 2nd gen Micro, but the skinny on Talkbass is that it's not really [i]that[/i] loud, so I passed... IIRC the B2 is pretty power hungry so must love your DPC! Not really sure what to suggest beyond that I'm afraid. Maybe an [url="http://www.epifani.com/products/PS_1000BA.php"]Epifani Performance 1000[/url]; is 16lbs too heavy?

    [quote name='jasperok' post='645110' date='Nov 4 2009, 11:58 AM']Just wondering if anyine knows of brands of acoustic strings that are out there? I see very little choice on the bay or else where really. I need some warm (not bright) short scale strings for my resonator bass and want to try out a few different types. Thanks[/quote] Is the Reso a magnetic or piezo pickup? I ask as it affects which string types you can use. Why not buy some Status Graphite Hitwires? Rob does short scale black nylon, flat and dedicated acoustic bass strings, so you should fine something you like there...

    Brand new and boxed. 45/65/80/100/125 Retail would be £40; I'd like £35 posted. Thanks for looking Gareth
  20. franzbassist
    Everyone knows the deal on these; this one is very good condition and works perfectly. £80 posted. Cheers Gareth
  21. franzbassist
    Too expensive? £450 the amp and £400 each for the cabs?
