  1. Yep up the back for me too, I'm going to get a dual lead made for instrument and in ears. Getting the fit right will transform the sound, I've never had such a good bass sound as I do from the KZs once I'd got them in snug. Are you getting them right in there? Mouth open and pull your ear backwards whilst using your pointing finger to push the ear piece home?
  2. I don't think these desks are suitable for knob twiddlers tbh, once set up properly you shouldn't need the mixer controls anywhere near the singer in the same way you wouldn't have a mixing desk in stage at the front.
  3. My wife has been firm on him not being up to monkey business to the point debates have become heated over it, she watched the first half and was actually crying because she felt she knew they were telling the truth, sad really.
  4. The Bartolinis in my old Jazz were different sizes.
  5. After ten years living together I suppose it was only a matter of time before she'd make him choose between her and his career!
  6. It's not so much the rating of the cab, it might not break the cab but it won't sound great near breaking point. A more efficient cab could be rated at the same wattage but sound nicer and louder even when using a smaller amp. Adding another gk cab wouldn't be a bad idea if one crops up, the streamliner into a pair of those will sound great on a gig and just one for home practice. Keep searching
  7. Ermm Gary Glitter moved to Thailand and seen regularly with young boys?
  8. We will leave them in our set unless there's an actual posthumous conviction.
  9. I've found getting low volume is more about the speaker cab than the amp, if I run my small amp through my 2x12 cab it's hard to get the volume under control for a quiet jam whereas I can put my 900watt head into my 1x10 and practice upstairs whilst the Mrs watches television in the room below without complaining. The GK cab will probably stop you from getting any actual benefit from the bigger wattage head though. A Genz Benz Streamliner head sounds ideal if you can find one, paired later with a pair of nice 1x12s will give you a great modular rig, the GK head and one cab for home practice, genz head and one cab for louder practice/rehearsals etc, genz head and both cabs for proper gigs with the GK head as a spare 😁
  10. I've bought another pair of KZ ZS10s for home practice and to put in the bag as a spare set for gigs.
  11. Double basses can have "an extension" which is an extra piece of finger board past the nut with a lever that folds over to activate or eliminate the extra portion, the Kubiki bass had something similar a hundred years later and bass players thought they'd reinvented the wheel!
  12. Is it two really short sets or one really long version to fill the night Jack?
  13. Another Jazz Bass copy that costs nearly as much as a real one but with lower quality hardware, I'll pass thanks.
  14. When you link up the external router you have to switch the switch over to ethernet which turns off the internal router, we've had zero problems since throwing the free router that nearly went in the bin at it. I'm waiting to go to a gig with a standard xr router so I can 'help their mix out'.
  15. I've got a Genz 3.0 and 1x10 cab, a Genz 6.0 and matching 1x12. Then a could use a single 735 or even the pair as they belong to me not the band. Not exactly struggling for amps am I? The big rig is a Genz Shuttlemax 9.2 and 2x12 cab. All class D
  16. I don't think it's that hard to achieve, guitar stands and cases have been around for a long time now. Lol
  17. I'm not sure really, I know a professional player that plays most nights and all his kit is still quite tidy really.
  18. And in strange places for no apparent reason. Foxx of these parts has my old 82 stingray, clearly been played a lot but almost mint condition, nothing made by Sandberg should be in that state yet.
  19. Relic on a fender clone I can sort of see to some extent, on basses like sandbergs where the model hasn't been around long enough just baffles me.
  20. Does the real 'mojo' on basses appear all at once? My main gigging bass is a nearly ten year old stingray 5 and its got a few tiny marks so far, if I get the same every decade for the next three it would still be in good condition, will I get it out the case one day and find it looking like it's been to the Gaza strip?
  21. It definitely needs a vet to give it a once over if it's pooped that out, thankfully it looks like he's painted the inside of the jack socket so hopefully it won't be making an appearance at any gigs anytime soon, lol.
