well a placcy carrier bag would just split with all those pointy jack plugs and ketttle leads poking thorugh its flimsiness (not sure if thats a proper word or not but if its not ill claim inventing it )

the very same

it is a very classy bass line indeed - figured it out and have been pestering our band like absolute crazy to cover it ...... although im sure the singists will come up with some reason not to

[quote name='Marvin' timestamp='1356433868' post='1910159'] That's useful to know. I've been thinking of moving our Citroen on and getting a 3series but was concerned I wouldn't be able to get a 410 on the back seats. [/quote] you can get two on there (IIRC 24"x24"x15" each) soooo... theoretically you should be able to get an 810 cab across the back seat one word of advice just be careful around the front edge of the rear wheel arches when lifting the cab in - i was being a bit hasty and lazy one day and the corner of the cab put a nice little dent in the bodywork oh and the seat belts will also fit around the two cabs and clip in to help secure them

waitrose shopping bag

had a 318i - could get two hartke cabs on the back seat (410 and 115) and guitars across the rear footwell with all the boot still free for other band gear if need be

well in other places my maplin supply is absolutlely fine what has just occured to me though is that my pc is plugged into the same ring and whirring away - i will test it soon but i have a sneaky suspicion the pc may be the cause of the problem its been checked over by a local amp specialist and is fine - he did advise check the cheap grey block RCD device i was using as they can sometimes cause similar problems (apparently they are suitable for lawnmowers but can introduce unwanted noise into audio equipment)

ok so it is looking highly unlike the world is actually going to end or suffer some major catastrophic apocalypse what if its the whole human concioussness thing developing?? what if everybody does start becoming suddenly 'enlightened' and sees the 'truth' what if the p-funk guys were right and the mothership sends out intergalactic funk waves throughout the cosmos and all the guitarers suddenly feel an uncontrollable urge to 'play on the one' how will YOU as a bass player cope with all the sudden influx of guitar widdlers abandoning their puny instruments and leaving the cheese wires to rust away whilst swamping all the bass shops looking for something with a bit more substance whats it going to be like trying to get a bass gig then!!

drops of jupiter high and dry and if i get my way .... filthy and gorgeous

ME! Last gig we were on the verge of being asked to turn down a wee bit I tried the subtle tactic of ... i had my bass volume maxed out and the amp's input gain and master volume were all maxed out on ten , couldnt have turned up any more even if i needed to .... ..........................................................................................tumbleweed.........

[quote name='xgsjx' timestamp='1355992032' post='1905308'] That's a problem I've come up against in just about every guitar based band I've been in. Their excuse is usually "I need it at 11 to get My sound", even though their "sound" is normally guff at that volume. [/quote] and then they whine on about how pure their tone is and its not the same if you use effects and amp modelling etc etc etc blah blah blah blah blah whine whine whine

[quote name='51m0n' timestamp='1355960856' post='1905177'] and most bands in pubs are just waaaaayyyy too loud... [/quote] but then thats not just the FOH sound guy/girl .... 9/10 its as much to do with the pesky guitarers who wont turn down and deafen the rest of the band let alone the audience

obviously a man of discerning taste choosing the yamaha

all of the above plus...... from your questions would i be correct in guessing you have not played on status necks? if so you might want to try one out before taking the plunge - they are mechanically and sonically extremely responsive (and without wishing to sound like im casting judgement on your playing skill and technique please dont take this the wrong way) they can be very unforgiving/illuminating!! edit - to specifically answer the OP [quote name='mushers' timestamp='1355506890' post='1899458'] the fretboard looks plastic is it ? does it feel ok to play on ? does the back of the neck get sticky ? and what difference in the sound ? and are they easy to fit ? [/quote] phenolic - imagine hard lacquered ebony - mine had not so much a grain effect more a mottled colouration which was quite pleasing to the eye - beautiful feel to play - the back of the neck is very hard gloss finish - think harder than a superhard maple neck with ultra hard lacquer no - only your hands might get sticky bright with extra added brightness - very consistent powerful tones and no dead spots yes very easy - just send it over to the status factory
