Bought His MAG 410, dead easy deal. Nice bloke to deal with. I didn't question him on his football tastes so I can't hold that against him. Cheers mate Chris

[quote name='Marcus' post='693792' date='Dec 26 2009, 04:10 PM']Anyone bought a 751 then ? Had a few 750's and considering the 751 as my "come-back" amp !! opinions welcome Thanks Guys Mark[/quote] Hello mate, I've played through a number of 751's all through Aggie 810 cabs and they sound every bit as good as the 750 I got from you. However I don't see any reason in selling the 750 in order to get a 751. I would say that the 751 is a great amp and would be an ideal way to start your "come-back" All the best, Noir

+1 for the EBS, This is the one that always comes out with me. great tracking and warm tone, in a bomb proof box. I also use a Micro POG, This is a digital octaver therefore the tracking is perfect even on a low E. Not as warm as the EBS though. I tend to use the POG for the octave up and the EBS for Octave down.

Yet another +1 for Alan, He just bought a Reggie Hamilton Jazz bass from me. Lovely bloke to deal with, really easy sale. Hope you enjoy it. All the best Chris

Just bought Chris' Cream Pie. A true gent he held it for me till I got back from a short holiday. Arrived very quickly. Top class. Wouldn't hesitate to buy from again Cheers Chris Noir

Why not use that on the others?[/quote] Yeah they all have velcro on the bottom, the P & C and X-blender are v light pedals and adhere well to the board thus no need for the cable tie. The heavier pedals pull themselves off if they get a bit of a bash or worse still are left to the baggage handlers when taken overseas. Short of screwing them down I see the cable tie as a cheap and simple solution.

As I'm hanging around waiting to go to a gig I thought I would post up my gig board. Enjoy. [attachment=24573:IMG_0072.JPG]

[quote name='truegeminis' post='470613' date='Apr 23 2009, 12:37 PM']Can anybody who already uses these cabs tell me/reassure me that a Berg 1x12 would be sufficient for most gigs? I play in a couple of function bands and a 6-piece ska band (2 guitars, drums, bass, sax and trumpet). I'd say that the majority of gigs I do have the bass D.I.'d, but just in case I want a cab that is going to cope. Any opinions, experiences are greatly appreciated.[/quote] Hi, I use 2 Berg 1 X 12 cabs with a Mark Bass F1 head. I play in a pretty loud Rock band most of the time and I would not leave the house without both cabs. That said I'm often just using backline. I did however use just the one cab on a function the other day and it was fine in terms of volume. I've never tried just one cab when using the house monitors, but I suspect it'd be fine Depending on how loud the Ska band is I think you could probably get away with one cab but the headroom you get with both cabs is excellent. I must say that I've not tried the Schroeder cabs but the F1 / Berg combination is the best compact rig I've ever played through. Hope that helps

Have loved her music and playing since her first album, although she always catches me out when she brings out a new album and I don't really get it - after a few listens I always come to the conclusion that she's a genius. Have seen her many times live and she is without doubt my favorite groove player. [url="http://www.freemyheart.com/"]http://www.freemyheart.com/[/url] for all the info / clips / tour dates etc.

Just popped over to Cardiff for a lovely cup of tea and a chat with Simon and walked away with a fantastic Valenti P bass. Result! Simon was very easy to deal with and was very helpful in changing viewing dates due to my last minute gigs. I couldn't help but have a go on his rather wonderful Shuker P though, might have started an immediate fresh GAS attack. here we go again! Thanks again Si, really pleased with the Valenti, I'll keep you posted how i get on.

Bought Tayste's V8 Fuzz, great pedal as described and arrived in no time. Cheers Chris
