    Really does - but of course I'd say that! You should hear it with the Ric. When it's cranked it's silly loud and meaty as Hell.

    Thanks Stag

    Selling my mega 200W Hiwatt rig with the 4x10 and 1x15 cabs plus flightcase for the head. The rig retails for around £4K new. Since the bands I was playing bass in have split, this is just an extravagance I can't afford to keep. I live in Suffolk and would prefer pick up. Offers in the region of £2000. I'm also selling my Ampeg SVT 3 Pro in a separate listing - http://basschat.co.uk/topic/190927-ampeg-svt-3-pro-head-svt-410e-4x10-cab-flightcases/ [b]DR-201[/b] This amp again is a tried and tested classic. The schematics are faithfully followed from the original DR-201 from the very first Hiwatt line up. 4xKT88s, 3xECC83s and an ECC81 along with the trusty Partridge designed transformers delivers the sound and tone in spades. Although not as awesomely loud as the 400w, the 200 Head has its loyal fans and the front and rear controls are identical on both heads. Dimensions: 34kg, 700 - 285 - 290 (W x D x H) mm [b]SE410[/b] Although surprisingly compact, this cab punches way above its weight. 4 Celestion 10” drivers giving 600w at 8ohm deliver that modern mid-range punch. Dimensions: 48.5kg, 660 - 4370 - 785 (W x D x H) mm [b]SE115[/b] Although this compact cabinet can be used on its own in the smaller venue, it has really been designed as a partner to the 4x10 cab. A single 15” Celestion driver rated at 400w at 8ohm will provide that low end oomph in that configuration, or bi-amp the cabinets for extra versatility. Dimensions: 24kg, 710 - 430 - 630 (W x D x H) mm

    Something else to consider is splitting rehearsals up so that at one you play through the songs and don't worry about effects, where he can bring a tuner and distortion pedal and then another time do your 'dress rehearsals' with everything going, but he really shouldn't be wasting the whole bands time sorting his own gear out. That time should be spent on the song writing and rehearsing. If he's bringing three guitars and they're not all in different tunings then again he's wasting time. Nothing kills motivation like somebody constantly fiddling with gear - been there...been responsible for it!

    [quote name='EdwardHimself' timestamp='1335280553' post='1628542'] You think that's bad? The bass player in my band has got about £600 worth of effects pedals, including 2 envelope filters, and NO tuner! [/quote] With two envelope filters, I doubt he'd need the use of a tuner

    I'm primarily a guitarist and use a similar amount of pedals without issue, but it does take a huge investment in time and money to get things right. Time spent working out how everything works and setting it up on a pedal board which requires a few connections to set up. Money spent on good quality cables, such as George L's and a pedal switcher, like the Gig Rig Pro-14. Also a good quality power supply, not your Boss wall wart!
