He's put a 8 and a 4 Ohm driver in series and is going to mutter some technobabble about different impedance curves and frequency curves. No special drivers about it.

[quote name='Maude' timestamp='1398522555' post='2434957'] I went in my nearest shop for the first (and last) time about a year ago. I was after some flats or tapewounds and they didn't carry any. I asked about ordering some to try on the Bex4 I just got and what he thought would sound good, flats or tapes, he said they would all make it sound old and dead and not to bother, so I didn't, bother ordering anything from him, got some Fender nylon tapes from whoever was cheapest on the net. From point of view is, if you don't want to help or compete then don't grumble when you have no customers. On the flipside I went in a shop in Plymouth, can't remember the name, and they had a very good selection of strings, round, flat, nylon, etc. Will be using them again. Edit to add the name of the good shop - Sound Unlimited [/quote] Looks like your local did try to help you didnt he? You asked his opinion, he gave it. Whats the problem? Not his fault you disagree is it? And for my taste, tapes or flats do make a bass sound dead so he was bang on. Wont be long before no one can ask an opinion face to face if everyone is buying and researching on the web. The shops will be gone and all advice will be from people who spend too much time on forums (like myself) who only have eperience of gear they own themselves. This probably sounds a bit of a spiky post but its not intended to offend btw

Everyone seems to be selling Stingrays on here at the moment

[quote name='moonbass' timestamp='1398037383' post='2429834'] Can I get SVT3 owners thoughts on the Tube Drive control? As people say, it does run counter-intuitively in that it is supposed to be more 'tubey' turning anticlockwise, but really all mine seems to do is make the volume quieter and slightly more dull! I'm certainly not complaining, as the head sounds generally valvey anyway, but wondered if it's something wrong with my head? I've had it serviced and new valves (and biased) but it's just the same. Anybody else find it useful knob? Also, while I'm at it, I tend to run the gain so that the peak LED comes on nearly all the time. It doesn't distort unpleasantly, in fact it sounds great, but am I damaging the head or shortening the valve lifespan by doing this? A. [/quote] Its less than 2 weeks old from new and you've had new valves and a service?

Here you go Mark https://m.app.box.com/view_shared/0giiip2y1612vfjh9dix Fender Blacktop jazz. - i have one if hou want a play - a left of centre little gem Or you could get a Blacktop Precision if you want a P neck rather than a J. Funnily enough, i was convinced i wanted a modern player until i tried a Blacktop

Sold Mark a Big One! Top bloke, no probs, good comms, swift transaction 'Nuff said!

Yup it was a good gig. First time there but will be rebooking - Neil has a bunch of regular bands so its hard to get in but he was pleased with us it seems. Good comfy atmosphere there and proper music loving owner too, got loads of regulars coming up afterwards saying how much they enjoyed us - thats what really counts in my book :-) We had to borrow Talismans guitarist for the night - you may know him if you're local?

Try a Mono strap

OK, you can get back to playing it now

[quote name='Sean' timestamp='1397226056' post='2422000'] My BT2 arrived half an hour ago. [/quote] Well put your bass down and get a picture sorted then......

[quote name='Audiokostas' timestamp='1397122353' post='2420804'] Nice one Mudpup !! Although, to me at least, Big Babe looks sexy even when it's naked and single. [/quote] Topless BF! Nice

[b][size=6]BOOM!!!!!!!![/size][/b] Just had to be done really, didnt it [URL=http://s1271.photobucket.com/user/mudpup1/media/temporary.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1271.photobucket.com/albums/jj640/mudpup1/temporary.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

I am starting a feedback thread for cremonabass. I bought his Barefaced Big Baby 2 cab this week. Due to his new status on Basschat, Peter kindly agreed to send the cab (from Holland!!!) for a small deposit with the balance being due upon receipt. The cab was sent on Monday and i received it on Wednesday in perfect condition and well packaged. The whole transaction was exemplary and couldnt have been easier - good communications, well packaged, fair postage and the item was exactly as described. A great and trusting seller!!!! Thanks once again Peter
