[quote name='dave_bass5' post='10995' date='Jun 2 2007, 12:28 PM']Another good idea. Actually i just tried that and yes, it works although i need to get a black one as mine is lime green[/quote] Surely and Orange one, to match the head? :-)

Why don't you like the MB bags - I have my LMII in one and find it to be a great answer to you problem, puls a good transportation solution too. My wireless can sit on top of it and voila!

[quote name='wizbat' post='10727' date='Jun 1 2007, 07:26 PM']Actually tony and nick use 8 4x12s and three jc120 combos between them so they can fire back!!!! I f you,d like check out our site and see what uncontrolled chronic GAS can do if left unchecked!!! www.limeshark.com[/quote] which is all very well, and no disrespect to you, but why on earth do you need to use all that gear? Surely the onstage volume is for too much for the PA to have a clear and meaningful sound, so it seem like carrying loads of gear for basically no reason. Just askin', no offence meant at all

I may have missed something here, but why do you have to pay anything at all to get this sorted? surely all shipping costs should be picked up by the manufacturer on a brand new cab. I would no way pay a bean. This sucks, I feel for you. Can't help thinking that a Markbass 1*12 cab would have done it for you all along.

Another vote for the Stingray or Sterling. I use mine to the exclusion of all others with the band (SR5 - slightly more versatile than the SR4, but similar to the Sterling, with a 3 way switch). I find that it always sits brilliantly, cuts through, grinds, is deep and dubby, honky, funky, whatever you want it to be. And I can't be aresed changing bases - it stays strapped on from start to finish, and does all I want it to do. I never use my Jazz with the band, but on the other hand love playing it at home.

[quote name='Alun' post='7910' date='May 28 2007, 12:29 AM']Does the Digitech allow you to selct how loops end eg fade out, end after the current cycle, etc? A friend of mine uses an RC20XL and it's a nice feature. I still have the original RC20 which is pretty good but my ear/foot co-ordination is sadly lacking! Cheers, Alun[/quote] not totally sure to be honest. I think so, but I have not used this feature. I use it in my Spanish duo - nylon strung guitar, and I double on bass and bylon guitar. We use it to set up rhythm parts, and sometimes bass parts. All done live, we don't pre-record any loops.

Luke - as you know I use Shure - SLX, rackmountable - with the rack stuff included (it is extra on the Sennheiser). I wanted the ULX, but it is very expensive, and the SLX does just dandy. Huge numbers of frequencies to use, and auto scan and all sorts. I had a couple of Sennheiser units which were from a faulty batch (dodgy conectors - isolated problemn tho), but what I found when I got the Shure instead was in my opinion an ever so slightly clearer sound. I cannot tell the difference in a gigging situation, but when solo at home a lead is better. Tre www.dv247.com - for me it was the best price and LEGENDARY after sales service, the best I have ever had.

there is no delay at all with the jamman, you jsut need to get the hang of it. I have owned this and he RC20XL. There is no question that the audio quality of the Jamman is better, and on the RC20XL there IS a slight delay after recording the first loop (but not with overdubs). I cant see any areas where the boss is better at all to be honest. They are both built well. I suppose you need to try them all out - this is why I bought both on ebay and then sold the boss after extensive testing. Chris

rack and rack ears successfully purchased and quickly sent. Good fellow this one. Thanks Chris

The Standard is bigger, but still a fairly manageable 1 hand carry. It is a superb, superb cab in my opinion. Really punchy, with solid depth to it, and seems to be indestructible - you can really push it. Projects the midrage like a spear through the room, but does lose a little low end at distance. BUT, and ideal cab for monitoring on even large stagesm and will handle large rooms without PA support. And a bargain too - easilt under £500 new. The Traveler is really light and portable. It has the same characteristics as the larger cab, but without the really low end extension. Cuts through, and can be pushed hard also. If you have PA support, there is no need to take any other cabs to a gig. Good value too. I tend to use this one alone, as I cant be arsed with the bigger one for most occasions. There is nothing like a one-journey load in from the car - 2 bass gigbags in one hand, cab in the other, littlmark and leads/gubbins bag over one shoulder. Job well and truly done. Hope this helps Chris Used together, they sound like a massive 4*10.

how have have you mananged to tweak your post count dood?

I have had the boos and the Jamman. Jamman is better - CD quality uncompressed recording, and greater memory as it uses a compact flash card. And it links to a PC. It is the best one, cant go wrong with it.

how much are these bad boys?

nice review, thanks. May have to look out for one of these. Cheers Chris

Right - entries copied from the last site... [b]2pods[/b] 'twas my GT6B and until you said that, I couldn't remember who I sold it to A pleasure to do business with Peter [b]brycebites[/b] Top bloke. Things went so smoothly. [b]lukward2004[/b] Smashing seller! [b]dr.dave[/b] 'twas a pleasure to meet the great man at Electro Music in Doncaster and abuse some of their gear then relieve him of his racktuner in exchange for coinage of the realm. His car needed a wash though :roll: [b]luke again[/b] Just sold this Spanking fellow my ME50B multi FX - smoother than shaven plumbs.... [b]teh good doctor aghain[/b] He's just sent me a bunch of money for a box of speakery things that were cluttering up my kitchen. Top man. He'll be cab building now - another excuse not to wash the bloody car [b]spikeyhedgehog[/b] Bought a Sansamp off him. Great deal, great transaction. Many thanks

Folks, this is just great. Thanks all involved for your efforts - I am sure I speak for everyone. If I can help at all, just shout up. So, when do we start using this one properly, instead of BT? Cheers Chris
