Yeah it probably better than my first impressions, even though my first impressions were pretty good. I did go with the black one and there's white lines on the edges that match my SVT-CL rig Warwick do a good aluminium flight case, I wouldn't go near that Stagg case to be honest because I've heard some very bad things about Stagg cases. You cannot go wrong with the Warwick case mate, trust me.

[quote name='budget bassist' post='188222' date='Apr 29 2008, 05:33 PM']Yeah i know but EBMM OHSCs retail at about £120 they may be good cases but i doubt they're £120 good.[/quote] Possibly, but for £120 you could get a solid fitted flightcase if you go looking. I wouldn't have paid that much for it if it didnt come with the bass but it is by far the best moulded plastic hard case that I've come across. Get yourself one of the Warwick cases @ £40 new it's a drop in the ocean when looking at the bigger picture

and mine... [attachment=8261:SVTness.JPG] not a great pic but you get the idea...

at the risk of repeating myself... get the SVT410-HLF and go to the gym more it's not like you've got to carry it that far cos it's got good casters on the back, just have to carry it over things, or up a dreaded 5 flights of stairs to play a really obscure gig where the audience is only made up of the other bloody bands...you know the ones.

These were taken about 6 months ago. That band is over now and no one has offered to take pics of the new one yet, but that said we're not gigging too regularly at the moment... [attachment=8242:Ben1.JPG] [attachment=8243:Ben2.JPG]

[quote name='budget bassist' post='187730' date='Apr 29 2008, 12:51 AM']My sub didn't come with a case (bought used with a pretty hefty gig bag), hence having to buy a gator and maybe a warwick case. And would a 5 string toby probably not fit then? neckwise that is[/quote] ah, well I'd deffo recommend the fitted musicman case. The one that came with my stingray is really solid - the most solid non-flight case that I've ever owned. As for 5 strings; i can see it being a very tight fit. On my Warwicks it's a snug fit and those basses aren't exactly known for their wide necks.

[quote name='budget bassist' post='187533' date='Apr 28 2008, 08:08 PM']Does it fit most standard sized basses like the gator case? say... a musicman... or a tobias? [/quote] Yeah it should do, can't see any reason why it wouldn't, but why would you want to put your musicman in a warwick case when it comes with its own fantastic purpose built case? It seems to be pretty versatile, it fits all my basses anyway although one thing I would say is that the neck support near the headstock is quite tight so it's a bit of a squeeze for those wider neck basses (Stingray, P-Bass etc...) It's a good case for the money anyway and i seriously doubt that there's anything better for £40. Actually - I've just realised it's the same as buzz's case...check it out ^^ The white stripes match my Ampeg SVT rig :brow: = +6% cool factor

my first pedal was a totally mental ibanez bass fuzz (PD7) and i would still be using it if it wasnt so temprimental, i think it sounds amazing thinking about it, i might post a thread in the repairs section to see if anyone would know how to make it more reliable

The Warwick Tolex case just arrived and I've got to say that I am very impressed by it for the money it cost (approx £45 inc delivery). However, on first impressions it does seem a little cheaply made but it does fit my Warwick Thumb very nicely - much better than the Gator that I was using for it. I'll review it in the Reviews thread in a couple of weeks once uni is over and I've had a chance to gig it a bit and see how it stands up to a bit of abuse.

[attachment=8213:DougPinn...mpeg_rig.JPG] ok, ok...I have to admit this isn't mine but I thought it was an impressive fix for those Ampeg junkies. I'm using a SVT-CL with the SVT410-HLF cab and loving it - Made in the USA that is, none of that crap from Asia

Sound Control are an Ampeg dealer, I think there are a couple of them in Manchester? ...Made In Vietnam...
