You'll probably find that most of your favourite scream vocalists use the SM58, its a very capable microphone. The microphones you've listed probably wont sound any 'better' than the SM58, but maybe a bit different... and its a bit difficult to try them all! If you prefer the detail of a condenser microphone and have a big enough budget, the Shure Beta 87A is a great condenser microphone specifically designed for live use. I'v heard it myself and its pretty amazing, bear in mind you will need phantom power though. If your vocalist doesn't wanna spend £300ish on a microphone, remind him how much the rest of the band spent on their gear

From a point of having worked in insurance claims though it's not a nice feeling to tell someone they've lost everything.[/quote] yeah and I bet my left arm its the minimum wagers within the company that have to do this horrible job.... while the owners and managers sit and smile in there expensive suits!

If £135 'isnt too much' to you then get the extra pickup. Right now you might not be too fussed about the tone gained from an extra pickup but a year down the line your music tastes may have changed, you might have joined an [insert genre] band and your idea of tone might have completely changed. When spending so much on a bass you might want to have yourself covered for a fair few years! DONT screw a thumbrest on, this will probably devalue the bass. Possibly superglue it on but even then I'd be tempted to buy a different scratch plate and keep the original in a safe place.

and its very ugly!

I also got one recently too and it certainly kicks ass. I'v always struggled finding a tuner that 'does what it says on the tin' but the TU-2 actually does!!

deffinately a fake, you can tell the decal is just a sticker.

I dont think you can get much cooler than a (naturally) road worn P-bass with all the pickup/bridge covers and thumbrest still in place.

I bought an Ashdown Mag 300 head of Chris and he was great to deal with. Head was well packaged (some might say too well!!!) and was in great condition... he even threw in a free plectrum holder

I find it funny that squire are in fashion nowadays. When I started playing, a squire automatically made you a crap player.
