    Wow! these amps are like buses! Wait ages for one to come along then two appear!! :)

    I bet these sound great! - I'd love to hear one!

    Same as I was thinking...... really nice amps, it would look good on my NV610 as well :)! Too bad I don't have cash to spare for either or I would have scooped one up. Have a bump on me!

  3. What is your budget? Taylor AB1 is probably (one of) the best our there, but not cheap.

    Boulder Creek, Ortega (I have one) and Michael Kelly I would say are the ones to go to for lower-medium price range.

    You also need to consider that some acoustic basses are really soft acoustically. No issue if you plug into the desk, put if you play 100% unplugged you might run into issues.

  4. I bought JohnnyC's NV610 a few months back. Having lived with it and gigged it during this period (I think 10 or 11 gigs) I can honestly say that the sound makes up for the fact it is a bit heavier than you would ideally want. 100lbs is not overly heavy (although I am quite a strong lad) and the size is perfect. Really easy to move and I find it is not really any more hassle than the 2 GK cabs I used to carry (yes they are lighter, but also 2 cabs vs 1).

    As for the sound: I had only used an NV610 once before and bought one off the forum based on that + the good reviews and I am not disappointed. What a cracker!

    I am sure Barefaced Cabs are great (never owned one) and if they did a 610 it would be awesome, but Ampeg, Markbass, Ashdown etc etc do not even come close to the Berg. Not close at all.... that is how good the Berg is.

    The NV412 is also really good, and I believe there may be one on sale on the forum still. DO IT!!!

    get another Unichorus. It is a great pedal! The Analogman Chorus is lovely too. I use the Moog Clusterflux which is seriously expensive and serious overkill for most... before that I was always very happy with the EBS!

    I tried to get another Unichorus, but the shop I was in did not have them in stock and against my better judgement I bought the CEB-3 (which is fine for the money, but is not a "good" chorus).... I needed a chorus quick. Will do some research and buy another Unichorus if I cannot find another I like.

    Thanks for the tips so far gents!

  6. Okay, don't think I posted mine on BC ever. This is quite a "stable" set up, I don't change things around that much.

    Bass>Ebs Octabass>Home Made Y split box>left side of split signal goes direct to Morley Mix<right side of split signal goes to Rodenberg 728B>MXR Bass Envelope>Darkglass B3K>Earthbound Beast>Boss CEB-3>Morley Mix

    The Morley recombines a clean signal (50%) with the effects signal (50%) - I can vary the volume levels of these individually by setting input levels.

    Morley Output A goes to EBS Multi Comp, Output B goes to Tuner (I can turn these on and off individually)

    Why split signal? Because it just sounds better! On larger stages I don't recombine the signals, just use 2 amps.

    All this goodness is powered by a Voodoo Labs Pedal Power II.

  7. Hmmmm, I am not sold. Good news for the resale value my Finnish B3K, but I will never sell that pedal anyway and I have seen several instances where a move wasn't particularly good for the quality of the product. But, as Dood said 3Leaf and Darkglass are pretty awesome builders, so hopefully it will all work out.

  8. I was so geared to hate Markbass when they came out, it was yellow, solid state, light, Italian (no offence, the mrs is Italian and I love her to bits) etc, but several years later I find myself loving the tone, weight and quality of Markbass. My LM800 is pretty much my main amp nowadays. Anyway, have a bump on me, pretty sure it will make someone really happy and the price is good as well.
