    Malekko Omicorn Chorus

    Hey Guys, I've made a few posts recently about mini pedals and the Malekko range has come up a few times with very positive comments. I was considering getting the Malekko Omicron Chorus (favouring it over the TC Electronic Corona). That being said the reviews on the online retailer sites...

    Fender Blacktop Club

    thanks AC314.. I assumed the pickups were standard P pups, so this is good information. Delano do a dimensions guide for the PC series: [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]. From a quick measure up of the width and length of the stock bridge pups they seem to come in about the same. I've not...

    Fender Blacktop Club

    Hey All, any one got any experience with Delano Pickups? I was after a Flea-ish tone from my BT Jazz bridge pickup, the description of the Delano PMVC 4 FE/M2 looked like it might be what I'm after but it could just be marketing jargon. Can anyone suggest any other alternatives, Dimarzio...

    recommendations for a pedal board

    I decided I couldn't justify the cost of the pedal train, would rather buy a pedal :). I ended up digging out some MDF and spray paint from the garage and building my own. So SKB and Pedal train don't need to fear any new competition but it turned out OK, very sturdy. The top shelf is...

    Pressure wound vs. Half wound

    I had to take back the guitar I had the silencers on, with the replacement i gave the pressure wounds a try. Completely agree that there is less of a tonal change from the stock strings with the GHS's, I also love the black nylon winding on the ends - nice touch GHS. I've now put GHS strings...

    recommendations for a pedal board

    That's a really good point about the g-bone. I came across the Warwick RB 23110 yesterday. Small board which suits me but is powered and has inboard cable jacks for inline signal and fx loop. Any know if these are any good?

    Different P-Bass Pup Shape?

    The only p pick-ups I've seen that don't look like your typical p's are the Lace Alumitone Aluma-P. I've not heard what they sound like though: http://www.lacemusic.com/Aluma_P.php

    recommendations for a pedal board

    I was thinking of getting a small inexpensive pedal board myself, probably the Gator G-Bone or Pedal Train Mini. I had previously made a DIY board for my guitar rig using some scrap wood spraying it black and decorating with some Boss decals (the ones you get with their stomp boxes). I lack...

    Fender Blacktop Club

    I picked up my Fender Jazz Blacktop yesterday - can I join the club :) [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] Chrome Fender 'f' locks fitted GHS Pressurewound Strings Although i'm not unhappy with the current Neck I'd really like to have a fretboard design like that on the Geddy Lee Jazz Basses.

    Bass for Under £600

    I had to return the mtd to Bass direct this weekend. Unfortunately the build quality of the guitar was poor, including a finger print mark in the varnish finish within the lower cut-away. The guys were really good and offered me a full refund with no hassle. I ended up replacing it with a...

    Pressure wound vs. Half wound

    I picked up some SIT Silencers today and my first impressions are really good. Slightly silky texture to them but other than that feel very similar to the Powerwound strings I was previously using but with significantly less noise. Not as bright for sure, but not dull by any means. Actually...
