  1. [quote name='Moos3h' post='675456' date='Dec 6 2009, 09:44 AM']You could just change the speaker in the MAG cabinet. Those celestion Neos are supposed to be VERY good![/quote] Does that lessen the weight much?
  2. I'm currently running the rig below in my profile. I mainly just use the 1x15 on it's own and it stands up well against my band. Now, if I was to get say £300 together what options would I have in the lightweight 4 ohm cab range? I like the bottom end of the 15 but still need a bit of punch ( which the Ashdown has) so I'm also not sure what speaker configuration would still give me that sound if not using a 15. ETA... as the description above says.......lightweight! The old back don't get any better. Am I being a bit optimistic pricewise?
  3. [quote name='Mcgiver69' post='654559' date='Nov 14 2009, 03:32 PM']Hey guys my Ashdown combo is up for sale. It is in great condition and only gigged 3 times.

  5. [quote name='andy67' post='650908' date='Nov 10 2009, 06:24 PM']Not quite! however, I'm more than prepared to share shipping costs of £20 making it £110 delivered. cheers andy[/quote] Does the rig handle a bottom B? Also do the tens have handles? Cheers BUMP
  6. Ah memories! Went in there, earlyish 90s with a couple of hundred quid looking for a cab and when I mentioned being a Level 42 fan had a £4k ( I think, well it felt like £4k) MK Alembic thrust at me despite me saying I couldn't afford one!

  15. Hey Phil, Colin the fat bastid here. Now I'm pretty seriously overweight and standing up and playing gives me some serious back jip! Now losing weight is an option for me but in the mean time I just said to my band that sometimes in the set I just have to sit down, take it or leave it. They were perfectly fine with it. I got a drum stool that goes up pretty high so I'm not so much sitting on than leaning on (a bar stool might work here) and my Status 5 hardly feels like it's on with a wide comfort strap to help. Different problems I know but I'm sure with a bit of experimentation you can work something out. Good luck to ya, C.
  16. [quote name='Beedster' post='635928' date='Oct 25 2009, 10:07 AM']Trying to buy a lined fretless neck and every neck I've been offered on here has the side dots between the fretlines, which I find extremely confusing having got used to playing unlined fretless necks which have dots at the fretting position. Arghhhhh. Why do they do this? OK, I'm not really asking the question, it's more of a rant Chris[/quote] See where you're coming from here, we were both looking at the same Squire Jazz for sale on the site and this bass has exactly this problem. Now my old JD had no lines but dots on the side ON the fret and that worked for me so like you I'm wondering if one with lines and dots off the frets will work. Obviously a JD is a custom build so maybe that's the way to go, whether by ordering something or looking for something like a JD. Hopefully I'm getting a few bob next month and will be gassing for something, I suppose the best thing to do is try out as much as possible to see if you can cope with the odd dot marking.
  17. Go on Chris you know you want to, please stop me from selling a kidney!
  18. [quote name='Beedster' post='634406' date='Oct 23 2009, 01:14 PM']Hi mate Are the dots on the side of the neck (i.e. on top when you play it) in line with the fretlines or between them? If the former consider me interested Chris[/quote] Oh dear........check the last picture carefully! Bummer! Having swapped my JD fretless for a Status 5 I'm bloody gassing for another fretless. The fretless thread has got me going on this. Only 3-4 songs in my bands set for it but......if by any chance this is around next month I may have a shot. Good luck with the sale......oh and.................BUMP!
  19. [quote name='~tl' post='387858' date='Jan 21 2009, 07:51 PM']Well, thought I should have one of these threads. So was it good for you as well? [/quote] It was good for me! Mega quick turnaround on some strings a bought from Tom. Pleasure to do business with you mate! Thanks Colin.
  20. No money involved but Gary came round to relieve me of a spare bar stool tonight virtually to the minute he said he would, good to meet ya mate!
