    Ah, of course. Sorry!

    I'm in north west Wales. Pretty much far from everyone! I'm up and down Wales quite often though, ond often play shows in England so something might be possible.

    More stuff found and added, including the second Thunderbird pickup. First post edited. Aled

    Bump, if you don't mind.

    Good idea, keep us in the know!

    Yes when using the XLR out. Have you tried it again just to double check? If nothing comes out of the speaker with an XLR plugged in, but everything returns to normal once you take the XLR out there's probably something wrong. Could it be that you just didn't hook the cab up properly at the rehearsal? That can happen easily when you have other things to worry about! Speakon cable not properly inserted or something? Aled

    Hmm, that's strange. The XLR out on mine has no effect on the signal to the cab. Did you use the XLR out or the 'send' jack? I assume the FX loop is in series so taking a feed from the Send output would most probably kill the signal to the speaker. Aled

    I have for sale a TC Electronic C300 two channel rackmount (1u) compressor / gate. In great condition as it has more or less been racked from new. Can be used as stereo compressor/gate, or as in dual mono series (gate into compressor, vice versa, two compressors in series etc) Has a useful Mix control for parallel compression, and outputs on phono SPDIF as well as jacks. £100 + postage.

    [quote name='hamfist' timestamp='1360140406' post='1965302'] The neck is definitely more P than J. Still quite chunky. [/quote] Quite. Wider and shallower than my (MIM) Jazz.

    Why not try connecting the iPad to a small stage monitor/powered PA cab?

    Great, will have a read of that new. I bought it as I was looking for a compressor a pedal and a subtle room reverb for bass, and realised that the Zoom was cheaper than two decent pedals. I have a few songs in sets requiring and octaver, and one with spring reverb/tremolo, and the Zoom seems to have that covered as well... so I sold my tuner, octaver, Boss FDR1 and a few other pedals, bought the B3 and I'm a good few quid up! As much as I'm loving the Fliptop model, I didn't buy for the amp emulations, it's just that I haven't got round to plugging into my gigging set up yet (Orange OTB and SP212). I don't think I'll need the models for live work as I like the Orange. For direct recording though, it's looking to be ace!
  13. Ramirez
    Cheers! So far, I think it's bloody great, and I haven't really moved from the Ampeg Fliptop model, and barely any effects!

    Just found this [url="http://forums.fender.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=56497"]http://forums.fender.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=56497[/url] Seems I'm stuck with. I'll check my Jazz one just in case that'll fit.

    Afternoon, i've just bought a pickup cover for my new Precision, as well as a gold anodized scratchplate. Both are genuine Fender parts, but the cover is too big for the holes in the scratchplate (the plate has pre-drilled holes for the cover and a tug bar). I think the plate is a 50s spec one - did the use smaller pickup covers back then? Where do I get them?!

    ...and a quick bash with the looper. These toys are fun! [url="https://soundcloud.com/#melynwy/bass-looper-demo"]https://soundcloud.com/#melynwy/bass-looper-demo[/url]

    Quick and dirty sound clip: [url]https://soundcloud.com/melynwy/bass-demo[/url] Apologies for the sloppy playing. Still getting to grips with roundwounds!

    It's awesome. Absolutely fantastic. I'm even liking the stock rounds (having played the same set of flats for 3 years!) The Zoom B3 that arrived this morning seems to be the best use of £150 ever as well. Stock (sorry about the large photos!): New scratchplate:

    [quote name='EBS_freak' timestamp='1358460257' post='1939805'] Expensive... But cheaper than the competition. [/quote] You think so? I think it's ridicilously cheap for what it is! I'd love one.

    Couldn't agree more - about reviews and shop assistants. Last time I asked to try a bass in a shop, the guy spent a good 2 or 3 mintues slapping the thing with his back turned to me. By all means plug it in, sound a note to check everything's working, but then hand it me. I could have walkes out and he wouldn't have noticed. I'd never expect a sports shop assistant showing me how far he can drop kick a rugby ball I'm thinking of buying, so the need by music shop assistants to show off really annoys me. I don't care what they do outside of work - at the time that I'm contact with them they're sales assistants, not rock stars. And most review videos I see online are bloody useless. Though I do like that Ed Friedland chap's reviews.

    [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1359975410' post='1962619'] No, but they had purple ones! [/quote] Hmmm. Do Orange do purple amps then? If not, I'm sure they will once they see this.
  22. Ramirez
    Cool. Did they have orange ones?!
  23. Ramirez
    In 6 months I've completely changed my bass rig. Got the Orange Terror Bass and SP212 back then, and now a new Fender P on the way, as well as this new Zoom. Will post thoughts when it gets here. Exciting times.

    Now sold
