Thanks for your insights guys,It's given me some things to think about.

[quote name='xilddx' timestamp='1410359742' post='2548536'] If you have a PA why bother with a cab at all? DI your head and use a monitor wedge (providing it's not a valve head of course). [/quote] Sadly the PA isn't very mighty,although I have tried your suggestion in the past.None of us were particularly happy with the result.If we can someday afford a better PA then it might be the way forward.

[quote name='Big_Stu' timestamp='1410362463' post='2548579'] I've had a Hiwatt 4 x 12 on it's front in the back of mine with the back seats down. What you won't like it the chiropractors bills for when you're putting it back in after a gig on a regular basis. Factor in your bass, amp in the space left and it drives like a slug - but that's the Focus for you. [/quote] Every car I've ever owned has been turned into a slug by carrying my bass gear,I just accept it now

I've always used a 'big' setup,I still have my 2 SWR Goliath II's and they still sound fantastic.I'm not worried about the physicality of moving bigger cabs,but they have to fit in my car

We had a Marshall 412 provided for some gigs abroad some time ago and it had punch for days.I need to have the twinkly top end of a tweeter however.

Not sure what the drivers are tbh,they sound great though,but I'm thinking of a move to a 412 so I can get a bit more mid and perhaps a fuller and tighter sound.A 4 ohm 412 appeals as I'm used to having something that kicks me in the back.

Here's the current set up.

Cabs are early Markbass,2x10 w/tweeter and 1x15 w/tweeter.Amp is an old Ampeg SVT 200t.They sound good together but I like to push the mids and the 2x10 doesn't always like it which is why I'm thinking of 12's.

Good point,but I need quite a hefty set up to be heard as I'm the only thing that doesn't go through the band's PA,and they ain't quiet!.

I'm thinking of selling my cabs to buy either a GK or Aguilar 412.I just thought I'd ask if anyone has experience of getting either of the above in a Ford Focus?.I'd feel a bit of a dolt committing to buying one and being unable to get it home.I've never seen either cab in the flesh,as it were and not sure it would fit.Any opinions gratefully received.Thanks.

Bought a EH Nano LPB1 from Simon.Very smooth and swift transaction and the pedal was very well packaged.Would buy from him again with total confidence.

I've just bought a Stagg EUB from Gareth,great comms throughout and he and his Dad went to the trouble of bringing the instrument up from Hampshire to Stockport.He was very keen that I was happy with my purchase and I am very happy with it.Would buy from him again without hesitation.A proper gent.

Hi all.I've just picked on of these EDB's at a very reasonable price but I'm having a problem in that the E string pops out of it's notch in the bridge with very little force being applied.Is it as simple as just filing the notch down or will that cause mishap and calamity?. Also,as a electric bass player I'm REALLY struggling with the high action.I'd welcome any input on this from fellow owners. Many thanks.
