Currently using an SWR WorkingPro (solid state) but that excellent chap Dave Hall is currently building me a VT2-Dual-Bass rack mount unit so I've voted other.

I'm in Swadlincote so not a million miles away
I think car sharing sounds like a good idea, depends on what we're taking gear wise.

Cleobury Mortimer would be about 70 miles which is probably a bit far.

16th is okay by me too.
Just need a venue now, ideally with suitable parking.

Pete.

Many thanks for the reply.

I've just downloaded the manual and found this bit:

OPERATING LEVEL Switch
This switch selects between a -10dBV and +4dBu nominal operating level. When the switch is in the in position, a
-10dBV operating level is selected. When it is in the out position +4dBu is selected. A -10dBV operating level should be
selected when interfacing with “semi-pro” or low level equipment, while a +4dBu level should be selected when interfacing
with “pro” equipment. The switch simultaneously changes the operating levels for both the input and output circuits.
Note that the switch is slightly recessed to prevent accidental switching of operating levels while plugging in or unplugging
cables.

Sounds like I'll be able to try either method of connection and see how it goes!

Pete.

Thinking of getting a DBX 166XL and I'm wondering the about best place to connect it?
FX loop or bass > DBX > amp.

I'm guessing the latter, but cable wise it would be nicer in the FX loop.

Any thoughts?

Pete.

I think it's normal!

Pete.

Well the topic says it really, is the Midlands Bass Bash still on and if so where/what time etc.

Pete.

Well I voted Rickenbacker as I just love the tone of my 4003 but I also occasionally play the following:

a fretless Warwick
two Yamahas
a customised Ibanez
plus a couple of others


[quote name='martthebass' post='1678' date='May 18 2007, 06:27 PM']Voted Warwick but could easily have put Musicman in equal measure. Every bass collection needs at least one of each.[/quote]

Not got a Musicman or any money left so that will have to wait

Pete.
