  1. Currently weighing up the Laney DBV212-4 and the EBS S212CL cabs. I have a GK Legacy 112 Combo and a TH500 head that could both be used with these cabs. One reason for going 2x12 in vertical format is to get more sound higher up towards my ears. Leaning towards the EBS as it has built in castors and comes with a cover which is worth the extra £100... I think.
  2. Lots of love for Mike Lulls instruments. If I was in the market for a new FENDER Jazz bass... I'd buy a Lull. https://www.mikelull.com/ Nice used example in the UK: https://reverb.com/uk/item/93535040-mike-lull-v4-2014-two-tone-sunburst?bk=
  3. I have a 1981 Stingray. It is my first and until recently, my only bass. I need a back realignment after playing it for any length of time but.... It sounds incredible. In the early 90's it was Rotosounds through a Trace Elliott 1x15 / 4x10 and it always sounded bloody amazing. Huge growl and a punchy low end. After a decade of laying dormant in it's case, It has seen the light again and yes.... it still sounds bloody amazing! Currently strung with Dunlop flats due to some nerve damage in middle fretting finger (bizarre gardening accident) and you guessed it. It still sounds bloody amazing. Arguably, even better due to a more balanced sound between strings. I can't imagine not having it in my life.
  4. Hi all Anyone have any experience with either of these two cabs and give me an idea of what they sound like? I err on the vintage/warm side of things and will be pairing with a TH500. Specs seem very similar and cost is close and they will probably sound similar too. EBS has some extra features (built in castors) and comes with a cover. I should play them really but none close to me to have a go with. Cheers
  5. I have a GK Legacy 800 112 combo. Sounds great. Very portable. Very powerful at 400w stand alone and 800 with extension cab. If I was buying again, I think I would go for the Fusion 800 instead for the Tube Preamp section. Legacy is a shade under 15kg and the Fusion is a little heavier at about 16kg. Also have 115, 210, 212 and 410 options.
  6. Not used the NU-X but there are other options with similar specs for less money in the budget power supply space. I have one of these and it's been great. They also do a 5, 10 and 12 port supply. https://www.andertons.co.uk/tone-city-8-output-isolated-pedal-power-supply/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=surfaces&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=20730020346&gbraid=0AAAAADujoUoSLvVhWiQwoeDRzPOnFxbip&gclid=CjwKCAjwobnGBhBNEiwAu2mpFJ1bodTgzPIWgNTCBLmMQCFSL2hYAbIK9Pfnp9n4-8aFB9QIXKriURoCkxQQAvD_BwE
  7. Have some on mine. Sounds different but great. Lovely for a fat dubby vibe.
  8. Laney Digbeth? Versatile thing and great value at the price. No idea on durability though. That’s the one thing Sansamp has. A proven history of being bullet proof.
  9. Gallien-Krueger MB110 100W 1x 10-inch bass amp combo? 10kg Aux in Headphones https://www.bax-shop.co.uk/bass-guitar-combo-amp/gallien-krueger-mb110-100w-1x-10-inch-bass-amp-combo?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=surfaces&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=ADC_Bax_UK_NBD_Shopping_bucket1&utm_id=22697294629&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22697294629&gbraid=0AAAAA_lFRUz4BlLOUuLZdcdac9iG_f96M&gclid=Cj0KCQjw-ZHEBhCxARIsAGGN96Km3M8VV6FlOpyN5odRP-6ug6Zm8esQlGXc2IsZW1oWGK1Fz5sA72saArY5EALw_wcB
  10. Savage thread revival! I've seen a lot of people recommend DemonFx and in my opinion, DemonFx are the equivalent of Aliexpress. A business based entirely on the copying of other peoples IP. Yes, other companies clone/recreate the sound of vintage pedals etc but they don't copy the enclosures, fonts, knobs and just change the name. You could call DemonFx pedals fakes. You would be right. Buy the real deal and support the creators who are a part of the music community.
  11. First Bass: 1981 Musicman Stingray Taken as payment for a job I did for a guy that I would end up playing with for a good few years. Ebony fingerboard Fretless that came with a Custom Fretted Neck and Series/Parallel switch added by previous owner. ’Go To’ Bass: 1981 Musicman Stingray Just recently bought a Squier CV Jazz as a project and to have a back-up and after some upgrades and a good set-up and enjoying playing but the Stingray is still number one, even though it is insanely heavy! ‘My’ bass: 1981 Musicman Stingray
  12. I just bought a TGI case for my Squier Jazz as I needed a case with decent protection but didn't want to spend more on the case than I did on the bass which was a cheap project bass purchase. I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived with regards build quality. You can tuck the straps away in the back sleeve if only carrying with the handle. Front pocket is larger than it looks. The only niggle is the velcro strap to hold the neck is a little long but it does fasten. Worth a look in my opinion but I can't attest to it's durability yet. https://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/TGI-4836-Extreme-Series-Bass-Guitar-Gig-Bag/2WP4?_gl=1*tpfb0g*_up*MQ..*_ga*MjA4Nzg4MDE5Mi4xNzUyNTAwNDU2*_ga_0WF1R5QW3K*czE3NTI1MDA0NTYkbzEkZzAkdDE3NTI1MDA0NTYkajYwJGwwJGgxMjc1ODMwMDk5JGRMd1RsYUx2MXc0dFJFcE41VUU0VUtCd1lRZGt6UU5CQUxR With regards your other Gator options. I have had a Gator hard case for my main bass for 20 years or so and will stand by Gator quality so if you do choose a Gator case, you won't be disappointed.
