It might not be the bass at all if it only happens at gigs. If your cab is between 2 and 8 feet from a wall you'll get cancellation. Might be worth placing your cab in a corner and seeing if you get the same problem.

2 off 4x12s would look rather nice sitting under it!

You could always make your own! http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/?ie=UTF8&keywords=water+slide+decal+paper+clear&tag=googhydr-21&index=aps&hvadid=76245694712&hvpos=1t1&hvexid=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=17926834078465960300&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=b&hvdev=c&ref=pd_sl_6q6m0msqbi_b

Me! P.M. me if you're interested.

Or, you could just buy one. https://www.studiospares.com/Microphones/DI-Boxes/Palmer-PAN-01-Passive-DI-Box_602860.htm?CAWELAID=120173110000146033&CAGPSPN=pla&catargetid=120173110000154407&cadevice=c&gclid=CjwKEAiA3Ou1BRDso5XyhduuwFASJABP3PED2MF679pRXvdSk2t7gjHPJoVhcvg_9FJcJs0dCyo9XhoChkrw_wcB#rtabs1

9volts, no problem. might be a bit bright though on a dark stage.

Why?

In 1972 my first and only P cost me an extra 10% for left handed. They wanted another 10% if I wanted a solid colour, I did but couldn't afford it so ended up with a sunburst and I hate sunburst! How could they justify that? Actually, when I'd got the Fender I wondered if I'd made a serious mistake as the Sapphire seemed a bit better made and more playable.

An incredible £67 new!! Mine was £74 because I'm left handed.

Ah, fond memories. Bought one of these new in 68 along with a Wem ER40 and a Starfinder cabinet. My first ever 'new' bass and amp. Bought from Bells' catalogue. Nice bass.

Having owned Sound city 100s, 120s and a 200 watt head, a long time ago I have to admit, The volume of the 120s and 200 is immense, however the active EQ made it impossible to get, in my opinion, a good sound. The Sound City 100, while still certainly loud enough, with its passive EQ made getting a great sound easy. Just like a Hiwatt really and I've had a few of those as well for comparison. For me the choice would be easy, the L100 but I'm sure others would be of a different opinion. Hope this helps.

Yep! 6 gloriously glowing EL34s and some ecc80 somethings.

I would say the L100 would be more Entwhistle as it has passive EQ, more like a Hiwatt. The B120 would have had active EQ but be potentially louder having 6 EL34s compared to 4 in the L100. IMO, the Sound City active EQ was horrible and impossible to get a good sound with. If I remember correctly, the early Hiwatts that The Who used were modified Sound Citys with only bass, treble and volume controls, no mid control.

Interesting video here of one way of doing it, if you've got the inclination. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28ITCMYO5sA

I bought a brand new P in 1972 that did that. At the time, a rolled up bit of cardboard solved the problem.

Just use 2 Hiwatts flat out through 4 off 4 x 12s with old Fane 50w speakers. There's the sound, no mystery. It'll be bloody loud though.

Got no plans to see anyone myself, but our drummer's going to see the Troggs next week.

Strangely enough it's the newest song in our set, new to us that is. It goes down surprisingly well.

Black boot polish as had been said above.

I bought my Guild Starfire in the early 80s. It was a 70s model, black and had twin pickups and they were definitely humbuckers, which is one of the things I didn't like about it. The new ones have single coils.

Danelectro has single coil pickups and weighs not a lot, has a smaller body and thinner neck width wise. Guild has humbuckers and is heavier but not by a lot and has a much bigger body. Both are great basses but having owned both, I found that the Danelectro was a lot more 'fun' to play. The Guild is a much higher quality build, but is also more expensive. IMO, the Danelectro has a wider range of useable tones available. Does that help a bit?

On the other hand, you could just wire the pickup straight to an amp and hold it above the strings and move it up and down the strings until you get the sound that you like. That will be the place to mount the pickup.

I'm the best Bertbass type bass player in the world and no one can come close to playing just like me! I'm sure that you are the best Number6 type bass player in the world.
