  1. Yep! great cab well made and well thought out, love 12s there a nice compromise between 10s and 15s and a hell of a lot lighter than my Marshall 4x12
  2. No problem at all, to be honest if it had a wenge fingerboard i would have been interested, Fantastic looking Bass i do love the corvette body shape i, sold mine in the early 90s for silly money. Oh well you live and learn as my old Nan used to say. Cheers, Bones
  3. So tell me what have you got, amp and cab purchased from Bass direct about 6 months ago in as new condition ?
  4. IMO Leo did his homework and got it right first time simple as that. The only Basses I've ever played that felt like part of me.(if that makes any sense)

    Behringer

    For what it's worth, In the past I have had a Sansamp RBI, Sansamp Bass driver, An MXR M80 and a fulltone Bass driver. At the moment I have a Behringer BD121 and an EBS multicomp that's all I need to give a little bit more warmth to my shuttle 9.0 head and I like the tone, can't see me changing any time soon. Cost me £10 + postage on EBay
  6. Sorry any watchers but scored a new job yesterday and the corvette 5 I want has gone so I'm keeping the P as she is really rather nice, bit like an American P on steroids, the extra windings make all the difference. Cheers for looking anyhoo!.
  7. It's ok no charge great believer in Karma PM me your address and I'll stick em in the post

  12. Welcome to the forum, glad you got it back, i lived in Peckham for 30 odd years and worked in Camberwell for a number of years wish i could sing it's praises but i have seen the decline in inner London first hand. so i moved to the garden of England and to be honest ...................it's just as bad. Next stop Canada!

  14. Bye bye badman - Stone Roses Mani Sir Duke - Nate Watts Two very different but cool Bass lines
  15. [quote name='Skybone' timestamp='1323783533' post='1466938'] No, he only played the Aria (SB Elite II) during the Master of Puppets "era", his main bass up to and including "Ride the Lightning" was a Fireglo Ric. [/quote] The Rick the aria and an Alembic all played from Kill em all onwards, Alembic was stolen around the ride rehearsals IIRC
  16. Aria = Cliff burton, ok he played a Rick as well but in the main the Aria SB
  17. Sold a Marshall VCB cab and got a Genz Uber 2x12 couldn't be happier .

    Hi All

    Been lurking for a while now, names Tony, Bones to my friends been playing Bass for 10+ years have just parted company with a great little Indie covers band Reptilia (check em out). Gear wise i have an old Ibanez SR prestige that I've had from day one a Fender PBass and a Mike dirnt PBass with a few refinements. Amp wise have just outed my trusty old Marshal VBA + cab in favour of a Genz Benz shuttle 9.0 and a 2x12 uber cab (well I'm not getting any younger and with over 100 gigs+ a year the Marshall was taking it's toll on my back) So that's it in a nutshell, Thats me!
