    I watched quite a bit on BBC over the weekend and my only gear comment is that most bands I saw were using P-basses or P-style basses. 🤔

    I do have a 3U SKB that is similar to that too, which is great as the fat handle helps carrying it with my weighty preamps. Most of the flight cases seem to have slim handles which are unpleasant to carry with heavy stuff in. Currently I use a 4U SKB roto shallow rack with a 1U power amp. I would prefer to move the 1U power amp into the 3U rack with my bass power supply and F1-x preamp for a lighter rack. Then use my 2U Crown XLS amp into fat handled 5U, Ideally, shallow rack with two pre-amps and a bass psu. So the fat handle will help with carrying the weight.

    Yes. usually when I can use my own rig or when it's a venue where i know the sound is going to be great.

    I was hoping that might not be the case, though I suspect you are right. I will go for lightweight 6 if I have to.

    I guess it's possible. I have never shipped an instrument outside the UK. I don't have Fb messenger so better to send a private message on Basschat.

    This was a track from a local band called La Cigale I joined just before Covid and we got a couple of gigs during a couple of the times we could meet outdoors. This was my second gig with them and also my second full gig upright bass.

    A while back I decided to try some flats on this bass and decided to try some Steely Dan bass lines as I've read Chuck Rainey used flats on many of their tracks. I found a few no bass videos on youtube of steely dan and others and had a play along.

    Says 300w @ 8ohms on the cover. The model says MI 200-8.

    What are the newtone strings like. I normally use D'addario strings and would like to use strings closer to home. I tend to prefer rounds with a bright sound regardless of genre and tame that by eq. Any views?
  18. jazzyvee
    Do you want the measurement from the centre of the bridge or the lower edge of the strings at the bridge which is where alembic do the string spacing distance?

    I weighed it last week for someone who asked for the weight and on my two spring based luggage hook scales, one shows between 11 & 12lbs and the other between 12 & 13lbs. I personally have not had any issue with it's weight, I guess i'm used to it.

    Not sure if the principle is the same for bass as it is guitars, but where goes. I had the same issue with active guitars and distortion pedals. In the end I found the solution to be using a valve based distortion pedal or the dirty channel of my valve guitar amp. I ended up buying a Radial trimode which works great.
  21. jazzyvee
    I'm gonna try that then.
  22. jazzyvee
    Had to be done for a bass like that. 👍🏾

    I travelled from brum to LHR then to LAX, then drove from there to Santa Rosa to pick up my Alembic from the factory. Also on another occasion drove from brum to Berlin to pick up my DB. PHEW…… good fun but never again. 🧐

    Hopefully they are organically bred.🫣🤨

    Stanley Clarke EBS Acoustic Preamp, has two channels and mic in, DI out great tone controls, notch & HPF filter on each channel and phantom power too. Plus aux in and headphone out so good as a practice headphone amp too.
