    Geddy Lee for me. I was a keyboard player at the time and had bought Rush’s Show of Hands live LP for all the cool keyboard parts - that album is mostly taken from their ‘80s’ material. I was enjoying listening to the record when the bass fill on ‘closer to the heart’ hit me. A week later I bought a bass and learned to play ‘freewill’ as my brother had a Guitar magazine with bass tabs in it.

    If you’ve set your eq like you say in the first post then I reckon a different cab is your best bet - choosing the right cab for your sound is vital.

    The only way to drop to 4 ohms would be: a) rewrite the cabinet to only use one speaker - giving a 200W can at 4 ohms or b) buy another identical cab and uses magic lead to run them in parallel. I (along with most other BCers would opt for more cabs) 😎

    SOLD Bought this used a couple of years ago for some dirty rock gigs and loved it, but having reduced my gigging significantly it’s just taking up too much space in the conservatory, and doesn’t really go with the blinds! Tolex has obviously seen better days, hence the low price, but is still a rock-solid workhorse. 4 ten inch drivers with high frequency horn and 4 ohm impedance. Obviously collection only as it weighs the same as one of Jupiter’s moons, and not one of the small ones either. Please note that this is the B series can, not an SVT 410! SOLD

    Built this over the last few months to play in a covers band that needed a ‘p with flats’ sound; all my other basses are Jazz/derivatives. Maple Jazz profile neck with rosewood board - no fret wear (it’s only a month old and cost £120 on its own). Either 2or 3 piece ash body - will check later on. ErnieBall Cobalt flats Wilkinson P pickup BBOT bridge Bridge pickup is a bridge pup in a neck pup body - I didn’t have routing template for a bridge one! Could split if there’s enough interest. Would prefer collection for this if at all possible. WITHDRAWN

    Nope, not much cop for metal either...

    Who else has played through an unfamiliar festival back line and played the first song with the amp on ‘standby’?

    It really ties the room together.

    Yet another reason to hate nazis.

    You can liven things up afterwards with some Radiohead though. seriously though, I can’t imagine any sort of public performance where this would be apt. There are MUCH better standards to cover that will differentiate your band from the standard ‘pub rock’ fodder, have a look around.

    A shop without prices on their stock is just a shït museum.

    I haven’t got a really wide necked bass, so I use the drive.

    Makes me wonder what it's making way for... 🤔

    This.

    SOLD Bought this for a project that's folded. Really versatile digital multi-fx with a small footprint. Complete with box, manual and velcro on the bottom. £40 posted to UK mainland address. SOLD

    SOLD thanks.

    Heel width is 62mm, and the truss rod is fully functional, and it's a straight neck.

    I’m sizing up a small preamp pedal to run into a power amp and an Ampeg B410HLF cabinet. contenders so far are the Ampeg pre pedal, MXR M81, and the TC Spark Boost. Anyone got any experience of either of these units as a preamp?

    Sh!t! My favourite band ever. Gutted.
