Good point and i stand corrected of course OUTPUT :- 产量

is that a rack mounted solid case ?

Had a search and couldn't see anything so thought i would ask the question. I'm curious what people use to carry their gear to gigs. Not their bass but more their leads, spare batteries, strings, tools and all that kind of stuff. I usually take a rucksack but was wondering if there is a dedicated bag for it. Dave

Yep that's Jack but he could go for INPUT 输入

插口 音 卷 Just in case you need them that is Chinese for Jack, Tone and Volume in that order. Dave

Think the Suzi Quattro mime was even worse. The drummer was dancing in middle of stage with Suzi and the guitarist while the drums were being played by Mr Invicible.

The instructions will be in Mandarin

That sounds promising Discreet. Keep me posted. Damn........ you've done it again

Don't you start too. This is embarrassing you know. I have deep down meaningful feelings too you know. I must be getting old falling for this. Damn i hate BC

You are evil sir, evil. I honestly thought you were serious.

Damn he got me then. Hook, line and sinker.

Was asked to post in correct location by Mods ???

It was a joke There is no bass

Always pays to be honest and the seller will feel better knowing he hasn't misled someone. Everyone's a winner with an honest sale. Now I'm selling my Made in Dumbarton Jazz bass original copy with the lowest action i've ever seen. The strings actually sit on the 12th fret. Bridge is fully adjustable UP the way. Intonation doesn't matter with this incredible bass. Plays itself and the Truss rod is now glued in a fixed position to ensure staright-ish neck. The pick ups are so active i needed to fit them on the back of the bass and she plays like a Scotland mid-fielder on a soggy wet pitch with no boots. £3500 collection only as too valuable to post Anyone interested ??? EDIT to clarify :- the above bass does not actually exist it was merely a joke about ridiculous claims on basses. Dave

I think its more down to the fact i'm older and dream a lot.

Sounds like you've found the perfect set up so far. Let me know if things develop or change with your sound and whether its just because its new you feel its better. I tend to think that with gear then after a few gigs i find something isn't quite what i was expecting. I'm hoping its going to just get better tho. That's what i want to hear Dave

Like it and i would want one. Not fussed either way about the names as i recognise them all. Dave

The bass could be the only or the best bass they've ever had and to them it "plays like a dream"

That was nice. Enjoyed that and his tone is what impresses me so much. I would never have guessed that was Marcus. Every days a school day and up until recently on BC i just assumed he was the "slap" guy. Very obviously not listening to that. Think i prefer his sound to Jaco's. has more definition and clarity. Dave

Your bass is tuned down to C# ???? Do the strings not rattle a fair bit ?

Oddly enough i was expected the Alembic then WAL and finally Vigier. The Vigiers must be quite impressive then ?

And your using a Jazz bass so that more or less would be my same rig.

Damn !!!! sorry about that Cetera. I've never actually seen Hotter Than Hell. Meant to say DTK and i've seen them few times too. My wife even had pics taken with the band including an individual pic with your good self. Must be an age thing Cetera My sincere apologies. Now changed on my original post. More important when are you bringing your new project up here to Scotland. Sounds interesting. Dave

I did like the Streamliner and out of the lightweights around the time i bought it i would say it was one of the best sounding. Would like to gig my Warwick more but the weight gives me neck pains so its resigned to the house. Maybe some day tho. Its good to hear that someone is happy with the D800 rather than the D800+ and its something i was wondering as a few people have said it was "dark" and went for the additional EQ on the D800+. Makes me think the D800 alone would suit what i need.

Jacko is that you with the Alembic looking bass in Bannermans wee while back ? Bassboro - i find my Warwick a little too heavy to gig these days but its a gorgeous old 89 er with original EMG's. Hardly been out the house since early 90's. Gorgeous neck to play tho. I found the Berg AE112 cabs a little lacking in something. Could never really put my finger on it. Lack of depth, heft kinda thing. Find the Markbass cabs far better sound altho maybe not as well built. I have the very heavy Berg HT322 cab but its pretty heavy and a 2 man lift these days. Has castors for flat floors tho. Best cab i've ever owned so far. Seen a few 2nd hand D800's for sale now so that's maybe way to go. Not sure whether i would prefer the D800+ tho and want to compare them before i decide on anything. My post was originally curiosity as to why people buy MESA Gear over others and what makes it so good that people generally stay with Mesa Dave
