Thanks for all the great music links. Please keep them coming Here are a couple of groups I listen to.

Hi everyone many thanks for all your suggestions. There is a lot to think about here and, as always, you seem to get what you pay for. I'll have a chat to him over the next couple of weeks to find out what budget he has. I was hoping for a really cheap cab, sub £100, that is also very light but I have been looking at the DV mark jazz combos. They are around £300 but really light and totally fit for purpose.

Cheers Bigguy2017. Those cabinets look really good

Cheers I’ll check those speakers out

Hi I know this is not wholely bass specific but I hope its OK to post anyway as it is kind of bass related. I am not a member of any guitar forums and I don't play guitar so I am hoping that some of you who also play guitar can offer some advice. A guitar playing friend of mine is in need of a lightweight, cheap and small cab suitable for small jazz gigs. He has an old Polytone amp and cab that is too heavy but he may still want to use the amp. Are any of those small 'SubZero' cabs on Gear4music any good? He can't spend big money on a high-end lightweight combo so we are thinking he could still use the Polytone amp and get a cheap and light cab to go with it (the bass bit) Is there a light weight and cheap bass cab that would be suitable? I am thinking of one of those 1x10 eden cabs or Ashdown Neo cabs. Do any of you guys use a small bass cab for guitar work? I know some guitarists use the old GK MB150 combo but even that combo is a little too heavy for my friend who is getting a bit now. One option could be to replace his current loudspeaker with a Neo speaker. This comes in at around £150 but I don't think it would take off that much weight Any ideas welcome. many thanks Adrian

I have one of these fretless basses, almost the same as this but with an ebony board https://thebassgallery.com/collections/bass-new-arrival/products/wilkes-bass-custom-fretless I just searched the forums for Wilkes to see if there is any info out there as I am thinking of selling. Anyone have any idea what the going rate would be for this bass? It is a lovely feeling bass to play. I guess it is on the heavy side

You beat me to it Tony! 😀 Highly recommended and a very nice guy too. A++++++

Hi I may end up taking this up to Bristol but wanted to see if anyone knows someone closer to Glastonbury/Wells area I have an EA iAmp 350 that needs some attention and an old GK combo that needs help thanks
