    I used mine at rehearsal on Wednesday night. just wonderful through the Berg NV115. Nice compliments from our sound guy too.

    This idea reminds me of this:

    Technically I see nothing wrong with the concept. Fitting it all in would be an interesting challenge but not impossible. It just depends on the size of the components. As for powering, if both pre-amps are 9-volt then a 9-volt supply would be right. If the pre-amps are able to run at 18-volts then it would make sense to use an 18-volt supply and give yourself more headroom.

    Depends on your budget. Anything from £100 up to almost £3000. For a Jazz have a look at the Bacchus mini Jazz. There used to be dealer in Petersfield in Hampshire but I'm not sure if he does them any more. There are several short scale Ps. Also have a look at the Spector Bantam or Shorty, especially if you can find one with a Wimbush neck.

    Almost 20 years before he wrote the theme to The Professionals Laurie Johnson composed and recorded the theme to "No Hiding Place" BTW how do I insert a YouTube clip?

    At one of the Bassist magazines bass days at ACM in Guildford Mo explained how he actually did the slap part. Apparently he couldn't slap but they managed to work out how to get that sound. A very entertaining talk.

    And before any of those there was Money by The Beatles which was in itself a cover.

    In a former band the guitarist and singer, whose band it was, kept continually criticising a new drummer and keyboard player even shouting at them during gigs. I took great exception to their bullying attitude, after all it was supposed to be fun. The guitarist was often making mistakes so I was mentally and verbally prepared for when they eventually turned on me. "Until you can play a complete gig without any mistakes you have no right to criticise me or my playing". I decided to jump ship before the situation ever arose but that phrase is stored away for another day.

    You might find some info at this old thread.

    Eich make 3 different sized platforms that are cheaper than the P & D or you can make your own. I made my own using ideas from this. https://www.bassic.de/threads/bass-shaker-platte-selbst-gemacht.14849010/ Drivers and rubber mounts from Ebay. Wood from Homebase. You can use any spare bass amp to drive it. I bought a used Markbass Nano which is perfect and also acts as a spare for my main amp.

    Sorry about the hearing loss. I can sympathise. Have you thought about trying an Eich Bassboard to augment the IEMs. It certainly helps with the low end. Although your hearing has deteriorated your other senses should be intact and I find that being able to feel the notes up through the feet is extremely helpful.

    No sooner had I advertised my ART MyMonitor personal mixer than I had a PM from Chris. Very smooth and quick transaction. Thanks Chris.

    Do you still have the Artec SE-PEQ?

    I have a Spector CTB Fretless, 30-inch scale, which I use for noodling at home. Not had the courage to take it out yet. It's very nice and easy to play.

    This is the twin of mine - adjacent serial numbers, same colour, almost identical spec, etc. Mine doesn't have any crown inlays either. Absolutely cracking instrument. The Doug Wimbush neck is particularly playable if you have small hands.

    Whichever way you do the maths with any modern drivers it will be 5.33-ohms. Markbass have just rounded it up to 6-ohms so as not to confuse the uninitiated. There is no way you could rewire it to anything other than multiples of 2.66-ohms. You can safely use that with a valve amp on a 4-ohm setting without any problem

    What is the cab?
  23. obbm
    If you really, really want to use the active speaker then all you need is a stand-alone pre-amp for the other bands to use with it.
  24. obbm
    I've got one but haven't had a chance to give it a full workout yet. There are others here who have used them.

    What about a Bergantino NV115 - they come up on the used market from time to time. 15" + 6" drivers sealed cab 400-watt handling 8-ohm impedance
