Not sure about the rating you've given for power: you bought a 30W amp that, you say, compares to a 300W amp; surely you should mark it up. Just an observation: I hope you don't mind. Not in the market for one myself (quite happy with my Trace V4) but Ashdown made my first bass amp and I love valves so I like to keep up with these things.

Whichever you decide to go with, you should then try Linux on your current machine. Along with other advantages, you'll find things run a lot quicker.

Conversely, you could argue that those that *don't* buy and sell aren't part of the community.

Just because you *can* do it... :S

I have a Peavey Fury V and everyone who's played it has had something positive to say about the neck. Great build quality and it stays in tune forever.

2nded. With a passion. I've not said anything until now as I wasn't sure of the consequences of voicing such an opinion on BC. Bass...the clue is in the name. (Base)

Perhaps, after years of being nagged, he promised his other half that he'd put it on ebay. "Alas, dear; no-one was interested."

Just a heads-up. I have nothing to do with the sale but thought the BC-collective should be made aware of it.

I'm after a boom hitch.

Play nearer the bridge?

Just because something *can* be done...

Could you not throw your DB on the roof of whatever you wanna buy? It'd give you more options.

I'm going to offer a different perspective: go through your music collection and listen solely to the bass (as much as you can). Try to work out which you like the sound of then find out what it was played on. Get onto youtube and search for P's, J's, MM's, Ricks, etc. Find the tone you like. Once you've identified a sound, you can come back here and ask specific questions.

Just got an email from Triumph saying that JJ and Baz of The Stranglers will be on the Triumph stand from 2pm tomorrow.

We're all hypocrites. And that bloke is still sh**!!!

Firstly, let me say that the action on my keyboard is a little high, so I may make a few typos. The bloke is comedy gold. It's not so much his playing, which is infinitely better than mine, but his belief that he is much, much better than he is. If he gets paid to do what he does, fair play to him. I think, however, that the videos at the bottom reveal just what sort of a person he is, especially the one on the bottom left: does he actually contribute anything?

Now, I'm just a R&5ths plodder, and not a particularly good one at that, but even I know that timing is a fundamental part of a players repertoire; does this bloke know it exists? So, there ya go, my criticism. My constructiveness: (re)visit the basics. Oh, and thanks for the laugh. 270dgrz.cm

Those semi-pro's, you know, the one's with the albums, were at some point sat on a stage thinking "Sheeeeeet, all these people...they have albums...that you can buy in shops...I'm gonna look like a right dick." Thinkabowdit.
