  1. On my TE AH200 I use the graphic with some low mid boost.
  2. Plenty of great songs already mentioned. What about PSI Power.
  3. +1 for bringing a seprate DI to what you may have avilable on your amp head. +1 for being the bands sound guy too. When you plug any input into the desk you wil need to set the input gain.
  4. Frigging phone predictive text. Nice one you guys.
  5. I'm partial to some tasteful slab. Our band has recently added Hungary Like The Wolf to our set which had some simple octaves.
  6. A great series. The recent one on Rio was good too. John Taylor going through some bass lines.
  7. My TE AH200 clip light gets tickled a bit. I do keep an eye on it quite often an will turn the input down a click if needed.
  8. Here's our bands [url="https://soundcloud.com/carl-mepsted"]https://soundcloud.com/carl-mepsted[/url]
  9. Another for cutting them down so I get at least 3 wraps around the tuning peg.
  10. Were you listening to this on Dr Mosh on Simo Mayo's Radio 2 show tonight?
  11. Sorry. It was a 30 minute programme. I missed the start but managed to catch Mansons.
  12. Last night BBC South West Inside Out programme had a feature on Mansons Guitars. Hugh was showing some of his work for Matt Bellamy & John Paul Johns. Nick Beggs popped to pick up his double neck guitar / bass. It's on iPlayer and is the last feature of the 60 minute show, so fast forward to about 45 - 50 mins.

  13. Try British Audio Services. They stock plenty of TE spares, although a quick look didn't show what you want. You could contact them.
  14. Another for full on or off on my basses. I set my volume with my amp. Depending on which venue I'm at it seems to either 1.5 or 2.5 on my TE AH200.
  15. It's full on and detuned to Eb. I have an excellent transcription with tab from a guitar mag I can scan for you. Don't look at the tab sites. It will take you some effort to learn by ear.
  16. Glad you found some Stingray love. I have no problem with the neck. Good luck with your hunt.
  17. [quote name='peteb' timestamp='1392550680' post='2369879'] Round here cover bands on pub gigs are expected to go on on at 9.30 (gig o'clock as it is often known), play for 45 minutes and take a longish break to allow punters to have a chat then go back on at 11.00 to finish exactly at midnight. This is what most landlords generally want and bands structure their sets accordingly. This tried and tested approach seems to keep the most punters there until the bar closes. You may lose a few who have to leave early but you can't please everyone can you? Seems to me that the band you saw had been pretty professional about it and got the set timings spot on... [/quote] Much the same down here too. We have plenty of songs so the set generally stretch to 60 mins. The venue calls the times.
  18. I have 4 and 3 are in gig bags and 1 is in a hard case. All stood up in the cupboard under the stars.
  19. With our PA I go post and it works well. I'll always ask an engineer what they want and pre is popular. If you have an effects loop like me though they will not be in the pre signal so in that case I will run them in between my bass and the amp.
  20. [quote name='dave_bass5' timestamp='1390654548' post='2347951'] I wouldnt worry too much, im sure most of that tone in the video is coming from his playing and rig. After all, he hasnt always used them. On the subject of EMG's i dont think ive ever owned a proper one, but I have had quite a few basses with thier Select pups in that i really liked. In fact my headless bass has two Select humbuckers in it and i love the tone from that. [/quote] Yeah, I know what you mean. It would of been good to have had some more choice when deciding what to purchase. I have gigged a couple of times with my new EMG PJ pups and they do sound great.
  21. Bollox. Just fitted some active PJ EMG's to my Charvel 2B. We already do paranoid and are working on War Pigs.
  22. I recently put some EMG's with active circuitry in my Charvel 2B and prefer the PJ sound live and when practising.
  23. I believe you should not transport an amp on it's side as the vibrations could cause components to work loose from the circuit board. Good luck with the amp.
