https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/272533324991 Very tempted by this, but if anyone has had any experience of neck repair, could it be put right at a resonabke cost ? Even a diy repair with wood glue and clamps ?

Hi, I've found a status energy 5 wood neck for sale near me and the seller is asking £280. Its is probably early 90's and is pretty road worn, anyone know if this is a good deal for one of these ? I've never ventured into the world of status basses but thought it would be a suitable back up 5'er.

And a new gain control knob

Got it back from the amp tech, all is good and it works great, only issue was two blown speakers in the 410. Just got hold of two replacements from here

There we go

Picked up an orange ad200b , obc410 and obc115 for £560 on eBay. The guy said it wasn't working but hadn't checked it. Seems to work through one cab but I've changed the tubes and put a fresh set of tung sols in. Just with the amp tech now to bias and check over. The obc410 seems to be faulty tho, possibly a loose connection somewhere but over all I'm very pleased with the find! Hopefully it'll be good as new very soon

Thanks for the replies .. I may be considering an ob1 500 instead of the ad200. Regarding the valves, they are stock ones which came with it, about 4 years ago.

Hi, I am currently running an orange ad200b through an orange 810 cab, Gibson Les Paul bass with active pickups. My eq settings are roughly volume at 9oclock, treble about 3oclock mid about 12 oclock bass about 12 o'clock and gain 10 o'clock. The bass is set to a flat eq, with a little treble boost. To my ears the sound I'm getting is a little too 'muddy' compared with using a tb500. Would a compressor help with this or would different valves help? I play finger style hard rock / metal. Any other orange players, I welcome your advice! Thanks

Hi, many thanks for taking the time to listen and I appreciate your comments. I always think the bass comes out low in recordings but then again I am the bass player so it can be a little bit of a biased opinion!

Hi all, freshly out of the studio, recorded at a well known Sheffield studio last night in fact. I am using a G&L L2500 in the recording. Would be great to have any constructive feedback. Rise Of The North - Chosen Few https://soundcloud.com/isefheorth/chosen-few Thanks Aidan.

Hi, yes I do Thanks
