  1. [quote name='silddx' post='966895' date='Sep 24 2010, 04:32 PM']Squire VM Jaguar of course![/quote] Ah right, the Squier PJ Jaguar pretender
  2. Aye, they managed to get it sorted to have it picked up on Monday. Ah well, what's next?
  3. Bass arrived yesterday dirty, scratched and as soon as i tried to adjust the bridge, one of the inserts started coming out. Needless to say the offer of £20 discount wasn't enough as this was clearly the floor model so its going back. Bugger, its really nice as well and I ain't going to be able to find another one.
  4. While I have no doubt that this is likely to be a very well made bass having owned a few of the VM Jazzes, I don't get it. The Fender version has series/parallel switching, active EQ etc whereas this is merely another PJ bass. If Fender had designed this to have Squier produce a cheaper version of the Jaguar with active EQ etc then I could see this being a great bass but as it is, I don't see it adding anything. I'm not normally negative when it comes to these things, it has hotter pickups than standard but that's something that could be changed anyway.

  6. Whatever was cheapest at the time knowing Fender

  9. V-type combo? If I had the cash that's exactly what I'd be using
  10. going to be in a similar position soon as my band of 14 years is about to come to an abrupt end. Anyone looking for the god of rock and roll who can learn songs as they occur? f*** it. seeing Picadilly, Fanny smith and Willy, Prridge oats

    Octave

    I had an OC-2, sold it, tried a Micro Pog and an OC-3 Bought another OC-2 The dogs Used to have a DOD Octoplus but found it lacking in the tracking department
  14. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVJMMT9nXRI"]Frankie Goes To Hollywood[/url]
  15. Killing Joke - Love Like Blood was a favourite of mine Talk Talk - its my life ( no, not the tampon advertising 90s one) I never really appreciated TFF until I saw Donnie Darko - Mad World and Head over Heels are proper 80s classics Hue & Cry - Labour of Love. I briefly had lessons from James Finnegan, their bass player I'm sure there are more but I'm pissed and the old brain's not working at full capacity Woo Hoo. Party
  16. [quote name='BassBod' post='963901' date='Sep 21 2010, 10:40 PM']Looks interesting..but 120v and a hot valve in a small box is a bit scary for me, especially when the keyboard player spills his lager (as recently happened to my GK combo). I might follow up the FET idea...but I need a [u][b]tame boffin[/b][/u].[/quote] Is that a type of real ale?
  17. I found the best on a Precision was a Gotoh 201
  18. Found this which is meant to be based on the Fender tone stack and similar to the Alembic [url="http://www.diyguitarist.com/"]http://www.diyguitarist.com/[/url] click on Guitar FX at the top then scroll down to Modified Real McTube II I'm lost when it comes to circuit diagrams so I am either going to buy a pedal or see if someone can build me one of these
  19. I think I'll open this up for trades now. As you may have seen I'm after something that will replicate the sound of my Trace V-Type preamp in pedal form roughly. I'd be up for trades on: Tech 21 VT Bass EBS Valve Drive Catlinbread SFT Not limited to these - I may also be on the lookout for a Trace 2x10" cab as well. Not really looking for any basses unless pointy or bright. Oh, and nothing fretless thanks. I thnk I've got it out of my system now What've you got? I've actually never mentioned this but I've been learning two handed tapping on this and it sounds fantastic - helps that the action is super low
  20. [quote name='ped' post='963757' date='Sep 21 2010, 08:30 PM']I never found thru body stringing made any difference though to be honest - though possibly an argument for another thread!![/quote] here's one we prepared earlier [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=21840"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=21840[/url]
  21. [quote name='wateroftyne' post='963794' date='Sep 21 2010, 09:02 PM']EBS Valvedrive is a Fender tone stack.[/quote] I don't really want to spend £200 on a pedal unless its the dogs danglies and gives me exactly what I want. Given my past experience with gear I am unlikely to keep a hold of it - fancy having a go at one of those DIY jobbies as well, expecially one that had 2 valves like the Trace I'm off for a rummage around
  22. just got one this very second apologising for the spam from the website - I too got one from Jane
  23. If this is representative of the pedal then we could have a winner [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xr8kdWpB3U4&feature=related"]VT Bass[/url] The Catalinbread one does sound good but there seem to be a wider variety of sounds available from the VT bass but then again knowing me I'll probably set it on one and leave it on all gig
  24. I've heard that the tech 21 & Boss pedals aren't meant to be very good for bass - what about this: [url="http://www.bass.se/2009/valvedrive.htm"]http://www.bass.se/2009/valvedrive.htm[/url] apparently it uses a similar circuit. in fact f*** that, its over £200 Cheaper buying a Trace preamp
