[quote name='RhysP' timestamp='1343991679' post='1758261'] Are there any rock/metal players using Genz Benz amps or isn't it really suited to that sort of stuff? [/quote] For me, my Streamliner 900 is brilliant with my Stingray in my rock covers band [u]and[/u] my NSCR5 in my ukulele covers band - absolutely love mine Don't hesitate, buy one!!!

[quote name='owen' timestamp='1339709638' post='1693305'] Has anyone tried the Pyramid strings? The vid makes the Ubass sound like a useable bass guitar. I do realise that this kind of defeats the object of having the pahoehoes (which I love), but I might have to get another for the pyramid strings.

Had an Ashbory before and didnt like those white latex strings and all the talk - anyone used Pyramids yet?

[quote name='Lfalex v1.1' timestamp='1343246047' post='1747785'] They do wireless basses now? Are they Bluetoof compatible? Seriously, I don't ever see a need to go wireless until I start playing stadia. I don't ever see a need to go wireless. [/quote] Would recommend you try it, very liberating and also much tidier underfoot on smaller stages IMO - each to their own though of course!

Bought a flightcase from Gilles Great comms, quick postage and very well packaged. Would definitely deal again, recommended Enjoy the studio in a few weeks time Gilles, thanks for an easy deal mate!

[quote name='moonbass' timestamp='1342736192' post='1740368'] Yep, I've had mine for nearly a year now. Just got back from a rehearsal with it in fact. Hardly got a bad word (or indeed heard) a bad word about them. They have quite a coloured sound and are certainly not hi-fi. Unlike Markbass you can really hear the 3 pre-amp valves driving the mids, and that's where it excels. I would have preferred a sweepable mid rather than the 3 presets on offer, but it does make dialling in sounds dead easy. The treble is very clever; cut and boost work differently. The best way I can describe it is it cuts like a fender and boosts like Musicman! Niggles? Well, some of the pots were a bit scratchy initially but now seem fine. The DI out is a bit noisy if selected post eq. And, although not really a bad poin,t it is almost too powerful for a lot of applications. I ran it into a Vanderklay 1x12 tonight with a fairly loud drummer and it was pretty overpowering on '1'! I would love to hear it through an 8x10 as I bet it would give an Ampeg SVT a good run for it's money (which is twice as expensive!) In summary: love it! [/quote] +1 from me I also love mine, play though a Barefaced Super 12 I read into it alot before buyng from BassDirect and personally agree with alot of TB reviews about the EQ, seemed strange to me to be cutting the bass and boosting the mids as much as now do, but it works for me - I don't care what the knobs end up looking like, it sounds great to me. I prefer the lack of a more sophisticated EQ, simple is good for me. As The Bass Whisperer says in one of his YouTube reviews, it's very hard to get a bad tone out of the amp My DI is quiet but agree that a couple of the pots are a little scratchy, any ideas how I cure this?! It's extremely loud, definitely get some decent ear plugs if you haven't already - I would agree with moonbass too about the amount of power the amp has on tap, I think that the difference in cost makes the 900 worth the extra £££ over the 600, but maybe go for the 600 if you don't need tonnes of volume. The 900 works great for me and I'd strongly recommend one! Hope this helps

Ukulele player required for 2013 bookings and beyond! One of our uke players is calling it a day at the end of the year so we're after a replacement Would need you to be reasonably local to Bristol and able to play uke to a half decent standard although enthusiasm to get stuck in is as important as ability Backing vocals or enough confidence to have a go at it would be good, your own gear and transport would be essential Age isnt a massive issue, guys or girls welcome To find out more please drop me a PM - the band in question are The Rinky Dinks, check out [url="http://www.therinkydinks.com"]www.therinkydinks.com[/url] Cheers

Have you posted on the L6 forum? I've no direct experience but from memory they do reply to queries on occasion Hope you can get it sorted Cheers

I can't keep my receiver in my pocket either, prefer to keep it on the strap. How about setting each receiver to it's own individual channel and when you switch basses, switch channels accordingly on the transmitter? Hope you can work it out! Cheers
