A lot of Liam Bailey's stuff is worth a listen:

I don't think much of it today! LOL

If there is a direct link to the image, post that

You all know this one, but posting as I played it at a small festival a few hours ago. Good to get a bit of Max Romeo (RIP) to a mostly non Reggae crowd.

I’d be interested to know as it’s the same with mine!

I agree that a socket tester should be a vital part of a gigging musicians equipment. Before I left the UK I saw many instances of dangerous practices. One I'll never forget was a 13A plug with about fifty feet of doorbell wire connecting to a VOX AC30. I was terrified for the player!

All the parts on it are pretty common to buy so could well just be a bitsa bass

Darkness On the Edge Of Town - Bruce Springsteen

I've got a couple of Xotic basses and I think that its pretty safe to say that isn't from the same stable. I'm guessing that it's a custom build superjazz - never seen that logo on the headstock before.

Hi, I'm after some information on The Strunal 5/35 hybrid I'm a lefty and this is a proper left handed model At a very reasonable second hand price I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with them I've been looking for a good starter bass one that will be a good gigging bass as well Thanks

Send Ashdown an email, they'll confirm. They're pretty hot on email enquiries in my experience. Even Mark himself replies.

Not sure about that one, is that a custom logo on the headstock, I think this is another pic

Poplar this time

Yamaha BB234

Sold! Not to me I might add.

How do I get the images on Flickr to show?

So you mean that when you do that (route Sub to PA), you no longer get the decrease in overall volume when you (only) bring up the Octave knob (as I describe)? My issue isn't getting the Meatbox boomy Sub sound - I can - it's how each of the knobs behave individually that I find enigmatic. Having spoken to Digitech (who owns them), this is because the knobs are coupled, not independent. Thanks all.

...and the neck is wide, 19 mm string spacing!

Hey all. I've just come into possession of an RM 800 EVO 3 and could do with a bag for it. What are you guys using for yours? I see there is an official Ashdown bag for the RMs but it doesn't mention the EVO 3 at all when talking about which amps fit in it so I'm unsure whether it would be okay
