Gentlemen, thank you kindly. Much appreciated.

Hi folks, This may be a recklessly stupid question, but I need some advice - so apologies in advance. I love playing bass but as a card carrying technophobe have little interest in the technical aspect of gear. I am currently using a TC electronic BH250 amp (4 ohm) head but need to pair it up with a small lightweight cab. I really like the look of the Eden X112 (8 ohm) cab. Will I be able to pair the two despite the difference in ohm's, and what are the implications of doing so? Thanks in advance

Lovely bass, Ibanez are on point right now.

Beautiful!

I'm 90% certain that it's flat sawn Meranti, I've used a lot of this stuff.

Looks very much like Meranti

Having just bought some new TC electronic stuff from Guitar Guitar online I feel the need to give credit where it is due. I ordered the gear late on Saturday afternoon after trawling the net comparing prices - Guitar Guitar were the cheapest, beating Thomman hands down. Outstanding communications were followed up with [i]VERY [/i]prompt delivery this am. Packaging was top notch too. Having suffered some appalling customer service lately I have to give Guitar Guitar a huge thumbs up. Very impressed and happy customer.

Apart from the complete absence of any historical interest value, making them seem even less authentic. Just goes to show I suppose how dismally unimaginitive and undemanding most bassists and manufacturers must be. Jon. [/quote] I totally agree, great post!

A good bass player is a good bass player...

Outstanding! Well done...

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1455977420' post='2984168'] Ha, ha! I've tried that, but it's simply not having as much time to pursue it that's worked for me. I suppose a psychologist would call it a 'displacement activity' or some such? [/quote] If it keeps you off the gear then its an effective strategy!

The psychology of GAS is simple; it is a form of addiction. All human beings, being habit forming creatures by virtue of our neurology, are susceptible to this. The addiction in this case is fed by the "high" of buying bass new gear. Unfortunately the high, like that of all drugs doesn't last and we are compelled to chase the next one. GAS is bad for you, just say "NO!"
