[quote name='jimmyb625' post='231333' date='Jul 2 2008, 02:13 PM']Afternoon all!! Newbie to bass here, but I've been playing guitars long enough to be better than I actually am. Just recently got a Bongo 5 HSP as a 'late' Christmas present, so now I need to set about learning how to play I've been browsing through the threads on amps as well, as I need to get something sorted, although at the moment, I'm going through my HiWatt. Any suggestions? I've heard that MarkBass goes well with the Musicman stuff.[/quote] Welcome, thats a nice first bass! Im sure you will find a wealth of information on different amps as tested by many members on here, the markbass stuff generally gets a good thumbs up,

please post in my other feedback thread ta

[quote name='kennyrodg' post='189023' date='Apr 30 2008, 05:20 PM']thanks for the preamp stu,quick delivery and its in top top condition. thanks mate.[/quote] just moving this over as i have two threads

to be honest im not a massive fan/user of delay anyway (although the memory man sounds did seem pretty cool) and im mainly interested in the looper bit, hopefully it will free me up live to do some other stuff

cool thanks, my decision was between these two and i think im going to stick with the headrush

How come the looping is a gimmick? what makes it worse than the headrush??

Just clicked the piccy and saw that it is his bass :blush:[/quote] yup, thats why i was asking, always thought it was a weird/wonderful looking bass, and i had no idea what it was!
