[quote name='OBT1000_S12' timestamp='1389360349' post='2333279'] Thanks! Yea a few people now have said I need to change it, I think this will be the 3rd time, I really shouldn't name it after gear......maybe something simple, I'll have a think! Here's a pic to hopefully show the scale of it: [url="http://s1172.photobucket.com/user/S9_S12_Bass/media/4B46E1B3-9BCF-41D7-909E-86B18AC465A6_zps9g7xuvbp.jpg.html"][/url] [/quote] cuuuute! ...you need a new avatar too matey

That looks like a sweeet rig buddy! Need another pic to give a proper idea of it's scale though

[/quote] [quote name='bigbottomend' timestamp='1389164166' post='2330709'] +1 SVT and P = Heaven I'm based in South Yorks, I'm not lending them out but pm me if you want to try out a 70's SVT or a B15 [/quote] [quote name='Pow_22' timestamp='1389167428' post='2330724'] What he said [/quote] The p-bass aspect of the solution is being investigated on saturday when I take my cabronita into a local shop that has the p I've got my eye on... SVT, thanks for the suggestion guys but no thanks, I've listened back to the recordings of our practice and the amp sounded awesome (the bass still isn't quite doing it for me though)! Me being stood next to and slightly behind my cab meant I missed out on all the direct clarity and just caught the reverberations of the large room...every note sounds big, fat and distinct when played finger style and there's a lovely clarity when played with a pick! Solution, buy amp and a longer lead

[quote name='0175westwood29' timestamp='1389092635' post='2329704'] very sad i feel for you really i do lol andy [/quote] your sympathy is appreciated matey, I feel that admitting the problem is often the first step to recovery

[quote name='0175westwood29' timestamp='1389092362' post='2329697'] to be honest going from a the lm3 id expect the orange to sound a bit less tight in the bottom end, but gd idea in trying your bass through the rig although that could mean you end up wanting the new p bass aswell lol [/quote] it is indeed a sad, sad situation matey! the p-bass in the shop was a good one as far as fender go too, I'm rather expecting to be bringing it home

Well I borrowed an AD200b from a local guitar shop for our band practice last night and feckadoodle is it heavy! Looks damn good but oo it's a weighty chuffer! The sound through my EAD Foundation 212 was big and fruity, filling the room easily with gain at 12 o'clock and master on 2 (8 o'clock ish) but from where I was standing (to the side of the cab and not in front so less than ideal) it was awfully woolly too and lacked definition on any individual notes I was playing. our drummer said it sounded really good and noticeably different from the markbass LMIII head I usually use and he was in a better listening position tbh, we also recorded the practice with a condensor mic on a stick (we did this the week before and the live sound was pretty good and had good bass content as it's a decent mic) so will leave final judgement until I've heard the songs back. Last week's recording with LMIII through EAD 212 and using my Cabronita P the sound was a bit 'honky' in the mids for what I'm after (a bit too aggressive and humbuckery) and I blamed the s/s amp, I suspect now it was the bass (fidelitron pickup in it) and will be toddling along to my dealer (local music shop) for another fix on Saturday where I'll try the USA p bass I originally tried the orange with in the shop and compare it to my cabronita...I may yet do the amp change but I suspect that the first port of call is the wood&wires and get that right...

Diago pedal power £60 ish and never let me down

once it's sold it gets locked, it being locked is evidence of it's soldness so I wouldn't worry about it matey, if a thread does need unlocking you can pm a mod explaning what you're after and include a link to the thread and they'll sort it for you

Just completed a little postal trade with Mike, all perfectly easy to arrange and execute, everything arrived as described, spot on! Thanks matey!

Woohoo 10 weeks to go!

[quote name='hamfist' timestamp='1388819307' post='2326389'] If you make the blank for me Andy, I will cut it and fit it ! Deal ? [/quote] um, not a clue how to do that matey, was just throwing ideas out, I'm sure I saw one once...can't remember where
