priest, megadeth and testament in feb is my next, unless something else comes along any sooner!

just found this on the bay and thought you may be interested! [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BIG-JOHNS-HAIRY-BALLS-Bass-Guitar-Fuzz-Effects-Pedal_W0QQitemZ140276091179QQihZ004QQcategoryZ22669QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BIG-JOHNS-HAIRY-BALL...1QQcmdZViewItem[/url]

any thing from the sennheiser EW range should do the trick. great mikes, and they'll record well

I've been using peavey double bags for both Bass and guitar for at least 8 or so years now. the only problem i ever had with them was that the strap clasp thing was made of plastic and snapped. However a visit to my local emporium quickly sorted that out. They are still in their catalogue (at least according to the one i got from LMS!), however peavey's policy is to not put prices in their accesories catalogue!

he's definitelt been using the Tobys for years. when the bass centre was in wapping, i was fortunate enough to play one of his older ones - a beautiful green four string!, and it was absolutely wonderful. it had an excellent set up as i recall, and sounded marvellous. if only...........

i use the boss fv500H with a stereo lead to connect to the syb. should do the trick.

i used to use mine with an expression pedal. it totally transforms this pedal IMO. i could coax all sorts of cool sounds from this thing. I found the best modes to use w/ exp were 10 and 11 IIRC. add an octave, and i pretty much nailed the sound from deeper underground too a highly underrated pedal again IMO

might want to make that a bass big muff! also +the one on the lomenzo - extremely versatile. you'll find as mentioned above that between the lot of us we must have got through hundreds of different brands / models, and each of us has our own preference. Pedals i've loved a while ago sound odd now, yet in six months I will probably dig them out and love them again!! Equally pedals i've hated will sound awesome in six ish months time too! ears are strange things!

bass exciter?

ladies and gents, meet Rex Thunderbolt...

the description values it at £175 as is, which would seem a fair price.

i have the nady, and it's great! never had any problems with it, and it sounds as good as a cable. the main problem i've had in the past with the other wirelesses on the market is either bass loss or what seems like an over compressed sound. the nady has a control on the rear enabling you to restore bottom end and even boost it making it my default choice over other more expensive systems - I've used systems from Sennheiser (not freeport!), Audio technica, and AKG (although the audio technica comes a close second!) hope this helps!

i think you must have tried a dud. there is absolutely no low end lost on mine, no matter whether it's a straight to DI job with a 40K PA system, or just into my big Fender / Marshall rig, or even my little practice amp. Seriously it must have been a dud!

i'll be heading up there on monday, and then, if there is time off somewhere to try and find a bass big muff!

if they are the same as the ones on the p bass lyte, i managed to get a couple from Arbiter before they lost their distribution deal. perhaps a phone call to their customer support may be in order?

it does sound like it might be the switch. call ashdown, and see what they recommend - worst they can say is "no, bugger off", but that is quite unlikely!

i use the Boss fv500H - a great pedal - totally bombproof construction, a minimum setting to set it up for just boosting, no string in sight, and can also be used as an expression pedal (with a stereo lead). all this and retail price around the £70 mark!

don't morley do something like this? is it called the x-blender?

+1 to the comments about these guys, a great service at a fantastic price - what else to say!

for £20 it's worth a go. it'll do a few reasonable sounds, but avoid the attack switch, like the plague! - it'll make your bass sound cheap and nasty! IMO i found it most iuseful on he OD setting, although the clean boost is very useful. all in all, well worth a punt at that price!

nice ankles!!!!

if i'm with the classic rock / NWOBHM band, i'll take my two Dean metalmans, and possibly my machine gun, if i'm at church, it'll be my us P, with poss my Jap p lyte (depending on the age of the strings on the us), and with the alt / industrial band, it'll be a dean metalman, ibanez 5, and possibly a p lyte back up. i've rarely had breakage on stage, but if it's going to go, it's always at the wrong time! Since i'm a really heavy player, i need to have spares!

here's my updated board with a couple of changes.
