It’s a shame when band situations rob all the joy out of making music. I’ve been a in few where I was meant to be enjoying it, but actually came away with a bad taste in my mouth from dealing with the various problems it brought. Sometimes it takes walking away from it and getting your balance back before deciding what to do next. Hope it all goes well, and good luck with whatever the next step brings.

Another great feature is the SVT212AV cab has feet cups on the top for the V4B head to fit into. Head isn’t going anywhere! At a rowdy gig I turned away from some punters that were getting too close, I tripped and fell towards my amp. The V4B didn’t budge and stopped me from falling and breaking my bass !! So heavy amps still have the occasional advantage !

Let me check when I get back home -
Some people can suck the fun and cause drama wherever you turn. And there are people who want to control everything without taking anyone's feelings into consideration. If it's not a job, that shouldn't be happening. I'm having the same issues in another thing I do for fun. Politics. Good luck.

Good responses. I’m going to try these Dragon Skins out then. Though one thing I need to check - do they allow strings to ground properly at the bridge? (i.e. Is the coating conductive?)

Just gauging interest in this… 2010 US Stingray, 2EQ, CAR with rosewood board. One of the limited edition 133 basses, full fat ‘ray but with a soft gig bag case instead of a hard shell job. This is in excellent condition with one very minor ding on the top edge, and the pickguard is quite marked but obviously easily replaceable. Comes with a Hipshot D-tuner (long key though instead of short… doh), if you want the original tuner key I’ll chuck it in. I’ve also replaced the pickup with a Nordstrand MM4.2, which sounds flippin’ great. She’s quite heavy (10lb) but with a decent wide strap it feels ok. Loathe to post this but can at buyer’s (insured) expense, or can meet in person at either Portsmouth, Southsea, Southampton or Lymington (I’m on the I.O.W.) -
Looks good, have fun! Do report back on how you get on with it. -
Do you mind if I ask why not?

There’s a few different options but we use essentially a Roland electric drum kit trigger with a Roland drum module. We’re running two separate sounds/units through it. One is a kick drum (me) and the other is a snare/tambourine type sound (guitarist). They do a standalone kick drum with a built in module I think which is a simpler route if it’s just a single kick you’re after. But I can’t seem to find a link for it, so it may of been discontinued.

Had a very similar looking HW C64 years ago. That was such a great bass and sounded spot of with Rotosound flats. My current 4003 is on string set number 6 after a few years of searching for that "tone". I found it again with that same set of Rotosound flats. Enjoy, I'm sure you'll have lots of fun with your rather handsome new purchase !

Hi .I might be interested in this. Can you tell me what the neck pocket radius is ? Thanks -
I know I know lol interesting read that article

These might all be gone from BC stock. I've got a pile of them that I used to hand out at Bass Bashes, PM me if you want a set.

This is mine

Indeed, that's where I'd seen it, but the first post in here mentions ebony, rosewood and pau ferro. No worries, I'll stick to the one thread :D. Thanks again.

It's true, this rig is simply magnificent and not that heavy. The sound it produces is amazing!
-
The SVT212AV is heavy for sure but it’s a great match for the V4B. It may be the perfect match, sure looks sexy as hell as a rig though ! I lugged mine around and I’m 65 !!
-
The drive sounds very similar from what I've heard on YouTube...
-
Well, we're all different of course but I don't get any reaction or finger burn from the DRs. As I said originally there was a slight friction for the first hour or two but then nothing. Speaking purely about smoothness/string noise, IMO Elixirs are the smoother/less noisy of the two, althoigh the DRs are smoother than their uncoated strings. However, also IMO I don't like the Elixir higher tension and lack of zing/chime compared to the dragon skin plus. All personal preference and I'd say both are good options depending on which details you prefer.
-
I recall suggesting one. Quite useful for covers bands.
-
Yep I’ve used a few of these and it’s one of those rigs I wish I’d had.
