  1. That's a bit crap - especially as you ordered before I did (I only went for the head).
  2. As expected from UPS my delivery today has been delayed until tomorrow. Ah well, I have too much work to do today anyway!
  3. I nearly bought a heritage Ampeg when they first came out... 84lb No frakking way.
  4. Thanks. I'll stick it on the list!
  5. My word that looks heavy!
  6. It does appeal I have to say. Do you find the EQ a bit limiting?
  7. He uses so much compression he wouldn't notice.
  8. This is amazing https://music.apple.com/us/album/bach-unaccompanied-cello-suites-performed-on-double-bass/468820668
  9. Seem to be significantly over my £1000 limit, alas.
  10. If it's got a volume control then there is no such thing as too big.
  11. I'd like that Aguilar as well! But it's too heavy for me.
  12. I had an Ashdown MAG400H about 20 years ago when the MAG were still built in the UK and it was very good. I used it with a Marshall VBC412. These days it would go with a Barefaced Supertwin. I tend to like a beefy clean sound maybe with a tiny tiny bit of grit to enhance harmonic content rather than any actual amp drive.
  13. I've had Class D amps since they've been available - back to the MB F1 I think. But I'm about to sell a couple of basses and I'm thinking of an old fashioned hefty amp Obvious choice is an Ashdown ABM600 evo-4, but what else is good these days? No more than a grand though. I'll get in trouble! ta.
  14. I ordered the PJ set. It did need a little routing - it was just a bit too tight to get it in.
  15. Carrier. I got an email from UPS and used their payment system. They also have 'pay the driver' available in some areas. It was a little more than expected - I accounted for VAT and the courier admin charge but had forgotten about import tax as well. Total paid about £214. Still a massive bargain.
  16. Paid my vat / import / handling and it should be delivered on Thursday. That's far faster than I was expecting. I was thinking about selling my Darkglass head as I almost always use my Mark Bass, but now I can have a 3 way shoot out.
  17. IIRC at the moment I have TI Flats (P bass); EB Group 4 flats (Sandberg); Dunlop flats (5 string Ibanez Mezzo); D'Addario Nickels (the rest). So that list is completely wrong!
  18. Ooo I have a dispatch email! Probably take 2 weeks to actually get here these days!
  19. You can custom order any Sandberg with a 32 scale. Same cost as opting for 35 on a bass that would normally be 34.
  20. It’s becoming my favourite bass!
  21. Aargh. I need to sell before I can buy.
  22. I hated the RH750. I wouldn't buy another for £25.
  23. Definitely! I've ordered the head - £159 + vat! Madness. Andertons still showing them at £699. And I've just seen they've sold out. I do have an order number so I hope I got one.
  24. Is that excluding Vat? EDIT - I've had a look at the prices. I think you've forgotten the Vat that will be charged when it arrives.
