    An amp that has great tonal flexibility for any gig. Powerful enough for 99% of gigs, and practice mixer. Plus an exact replica for back up amp (if you wanted to) for 5kg. Cant go wrong.

    My SC was fine with a 500w markbass head (so prob 300w at 8ohm) until I ended up in a large building, with a high ceiling. Then it really struggled with everything maxed out too. All the sound disappeared quickly. In fairness it wasnt the right tool for the job. In all honesty, I'd go twin as a minimum (if not a 4x10 upwards). Not much bigger and all that extra there on tap.

    Will take £35.

    Completely agree. On first hearing the pre shape, the initial response it to turn it off and use the flat shape and eq as it does sound a bit duller, but it really does work in the mix. I always have to add more mids in anyway, but it really sits well and does that sound where it also kind of fills in all the gaps in the mix. Definitely try a RM500 or 800 if you can. As I've said before, ashdown are wonderful for getting the job done. You can tell theyve been designed and built with the aim of sitting in the mix well, rather than having a great stand alone sound that doesnt work in a mix at all.

    It's been a good time to reflect on what's important and what's not. Bands can be all consuming and take over your life if you let them. It's been a good time to reflect, make changes and hopefully get back to the love of playing.

    That's good to hear. I've been doing some jamming along to backing tracks via my phone directly into the rm and using lozz's settings - pre shape on and mids boosted, with a bit of drive and compression, it sits smack bang in the middle of the mix perfectly. Very impressed.

    Haha.....its EVERYTHING about it!! Ridiculous guitar pose when playing one chord at the start. Playing the bass line on one string.....when he manages to keep it together. 'Ready for some Rock n Roll....' Acting like rock gods. Guitar legends knew slide from mark on bass despite playing 2 notes. Not even knowing the song! What's going on at the start? Wrong lyrics Not even gonna mention the dancing! .....or the playing.......! Still.....they give it a go I suppose! I've DJ'd in Gary's old house, trust me, I'd didnt do them any harm money wise! Somehow

    Is there any difference between the rm500 and rm800? In particular does the 800 stay fuller sounding at louder levels like the abm?

    That Take That video..... Oh My God. Worse thing ever!

    Just adopt the rip the plaster off ethos. Sell it, and dont look back. Dont become attached to material things. Itll wear you down and get the better of you. Sell, move on, be happy.

    I think youd get more out of separates (both in storage/fitting in the car) and volume. Rather than a combo that only puts out half of what it says it does (unless you add an extension cab) I'd go for an 800w class d (so you get around 4-500w at 8ohm) and just to throw a curve ball - how about a markbass 210? I had one a while back and it could go blistering loud.

    I quit my band in March. I dont miss the drama and all the grief that goes with it, one bit. I have missed playing live though. Joined a new band now and looking forward to it. No dramas, no hassle, just sit in the background and play.

    Sold elsewhere.

    Never had a problem with ebay. I keep to simple rules - anything that can break, pick up, and ask to see it working on arrival. Also, ask seller to confirm condition and supply and extra photos if need be.

    Yeh, I didnt bother in the end. It doesnt bother me enough, it's only a light. It's up for sale now, just would have been nice to have it working, but not worth a 12 hour round trip for a £1 bulb.

    I've recently put wall hangers around the room. Makes a big difference to space etc. No tripping over stuff or having to tip toe around so you dont damage anything. And I've played my basses more as they're right there ready to play, not hidden away in cases etc.

    The quilter bb800 is very small and light and runs perfect as a pure amplifier rather than a coloured tone one. Mute button, all controls and power switch on front. I'm selling mine, but looking around £400. Theres also a low level fan on all the time. So might not be exactly what you're looking for. More power than youd ever need, and superb amp, but it's there if you ever do.

    My favourite amp ever! Now surplus to requirements as I've gone back to Ashdown ABMs for the next band. Superb piece of kit. Ultra lightweight. Lift and carry in one hand without any strain. Headphone in. XLR IN for adding preamp, helix, modellers, play along tracks etc. XLR OUT for going to PA. 800w real watts. I've never had it above 200w and I've done big gigs indoor and outdoor with it. Intuitive eq - 2 knobs that work in conjunction with each other to easily find the perfect sound and eliminate any room issues. Drive which also incorporates built in compression. Mute button. Ultra reliable. The Q in QSC. loads of reviews everywhere. Very good condition. Comes with original padded carry bag. Pick up Leyland, Lancashire.
