Another endorsement for either Adam or Kali monitors. I have a set of Adam AX7s which, you may be able to pick up second hand. I use them with a matching sub woofer as my near field setup and they're superb. I've also heard great things about the Kali 8" offerings too.

Roughly half the weight. I have them on my Aerodyne. Is the bass of far east origin? If so, you may need the GB528

I have owned a stomp and some Zoom pedals before, but not used with keyboard so perhaps I should re-consider them. My issue with pretty much any multi-fx I've tried (and I have tried most of them) is they lack that immediacy/improvisation of individual pedals chained together. The Stomp for example, say I just quickly decide I want to turn on a Phaser and increase its rate and then after a few seconds turn on distortion and gradually increase that: Perhaps I'm doing things wrong but I would usually figure I need to have a 'Phaser + Distortion' preset to scroll through to, it'd have Phaser assigned to one FS (to turn on first), 'phaser rate' assigned as something I can easily/quickly edit with the knobs, then 'Distortion' on another FS to turn on and distortion amount assigned to knobs to increase, and what if I then decide I want to add a delay to that at the for the last notes of the song? I dunno, but that never seems to have worked out for me with multi-fx in the same way as individual pedals, I'd end up needing a massive list of presets to scroll through to cover every eventuality. For me, multi-fx are great for pre-planned sets with presets, and 'always on' type things (amp/cab simes, compression etc), but much less so (and less fun) for live on-the-go improvisation.

Closest I can find weights for are - the above are 61.8g each and the Schaller 70's type tuners (shorter stem but bigger button) are 102g each. Not very scientific I'm afraid.

Fair point, they'll probably enjoy the bland stuff from Stadium Arcadium. There will probably be some post 2000 Pearl Jam as well.

Yes, they should bring it back, Id have another.

Gorgeous bass, I can see me getting one of these at some point.

Thanks for that. I had forgotten about that section, looks like the last time it was touched was nearly ten years ago I've plugged the Tele in, will plug the active Strat (heresy on heresy) in later and just have a play. The 8" cab is (to my ears) a very good cab for both guitars and basses. I would like to say it's my playing but I'm not that stupid (or egoistical). Rob

Or the old holes in the body of the bass filled and new pilot holes for the screws made in the right place. Quite why anyone would assume one piece of hardware is going to have the fixing holes in exactly the same place as the item it is replacing when they are of different designs is beyond me.

Exclusive at Andertons No idea how 'limited' limited is. There's also a few guitars in the same finish, it looks like the Jazz is the only bass offering. https://www.andertons.co.uk/fender-player-ii-jazz-bass-guitar-lavender-haze/

OK, so let's see if we can make this work on the basis that everyone pays more and brings their own food. Just checked that the hall is still available on Sunday 11 October and put a provisional hold on it. However, we will need at least 20 Basschatters to commit by paying £15 a head well in advance. This will also more than cover the continuous provision of hot drinks. If the attendance is higher on the day then we can just divide the cash surplus and give everyone a cash refund before close of play. Alternatively, the balance could be donated to a pre-agreed charity. Over to you 🙂

I certainly am Hopefully that far in the future Mrs Woodinblack will be better and capable of doing the vegan food and the heart thing will be fixed in some way

I like the 1210 & used them many times back in the 80s & 90s when DJing. Great sounding solid decks, but the looks are not to the Mrs’ likings.

@rwillettHere be dragons, and worse: https://www.basschat.co.uk/forum/99-guitar-amplifiers/

Randy And Timothy both used a variety of basses over the years but despite personally preferring a Precision bass to a Jazz, that does look lovely.

The plate can be easily drilled...

So the question is, how many of us are willing to stump up for the hall? @scrumpymike, how much do you need to cover the costs?
