  1. Must try this. Never had any complaints about the OTB EQ but this might be worth a go in some venues.
  2. Actually that's an exaggeration - every 5 string musicman. Both my '98 Stingray 5 and my Bongo 5 had the issue, but it may have been me being cack handed...
  3. Would like to try an Enfield, but I can't help but wonder what the design would have looked like if Wal basses had never existed... Every musicman I've ever played had the g string problem you mention.
  4. I'm glad I got to scratch this particular itch with a Wal Mark 1 I owned for a few years. Thought the desire for one had returned recently, but thankfully it has subsided again - couldn't afford one now...
  5. Did the CTM ever arrive Gareth. Quite interested in one myself... Missing my Little Bastard terribly 😭
  6. I gigged my lb30 through my tech soundsystems 4*12 once. Really efficient cab. Got pretty loud and sounded very VERY nice. Ended up DIing from the head as my mxr m80 died so had to drop my stage volume so the DI signal didn't clip the desk - still sounded very nice!

    If you ignore the switch on the mastotron (i did) then it's just a wooly mammoth with another pot on the input as a kind of impedance control.
  8. [quote name='RandomBass' timestamp='1387209112' post='2309372'] So, you were a rascal in a Rascal in your youth? ;-) [/quote] Let's say much fun was had and leave it at that...
  9. [quote name='Bassulike66' timestamp='1386105478' post='2295943'] So whats under the plug plate....is it still possible to fit a barrel socket? [/quote] Why on earth would you want to do that? Awful things... Lovely bass that!
  10. I'll hear nothing against the humble Bedford Rascal... A fine conveyance. And fits a single bed mattress in the back almost perfectly... (drifts off remembering his youth through rose tinted puffy clouds....)
  11. Citilink (via parcelmonkey or parcel2go) or APC. Avoid parcelfarce like the plague...
  12. Are you going to use the octave up? If not one of the boss oc2 clones will do the rest - the pearl circuit is virtually identical to the oc2 other than the octave up.
  13. I'd love to try a db750/db410 rig...
  14. Love Laklands, have 2 myself and previously owned another 2 including a 55-01. Truely great instruments. The burns isn't my style at all, but I'd be interested to hear one nonetheless.
  15. £40 for that? Somebodies having a laugh...
  16. Er... your 21st fret marker seems to have gone south for the winter! 😜 Nice bass. Had a 4 string from same era and it was VERY nice. GLWTS!
  17. I'd add that Drew at MBL is a joy to deal with. Genuinely interested in talking bass.
  18. Just sold Jon an octave pedal. Smooth transaction all around. Wouldn't hesitate to deal with him again.
  19. [quote name='Musicman20' timestamp='1385338633' post='2287254'] Lovely idea for a thread. Still missed. [/quote] Big +1
  20. Pains me to see all this stuff sitting around unused, and as I’m hoping to have Alan @ ACG build me a rather nice bass, I’m having a rather large clearout. Happy to discuss prices (within reason) and group items to save on shipping of course. Pictures will be forthcoming! More items to be added over next few days including quite a few valve amp parts, including an old amp chassis that might interest somebody.
