    [quote name='Bill Fitzmaurice' timestamp='1413339315' post='2577327'] Guitar more than any other electric instrument needs to be in both the PA and monitors, as its high frequency dispersion pattern is abysmal. The problem with most guitar players is that they play so loud that the small percentage of the audience that is within the dispersion pattern of their speakers end up with bleeding ears, while the rest, including a bass player standing only ten feet from the guitar amp but off to one side, can't hear them at all. The smart guitar player knows enough to use no more than a 1x12 speaker, so he can crank it for tone without excessive volume, letting the PA spread his sound across the room and the monitors across the stage. [/quote] Thanks for that! I'm going to forward this anonymously to the guitarist! I have to stand as far right as possible to him as he is far too loud for me. I wish he would agree to stand on the right though. The drummer and I would have a chance of communicating!

    I'm surprised your guitarist needs to go through the PA never mind the monitors as well!!! Many guitarists are that loud onstage that the don't warrant going through the PA with small to medium gigs. One of our guitarists still doesn't know he rarely gets a channel. Problem is he can't understand that he needs to turn down! As for bass in monitors, I played with only monitor signal on Friday as the back line amp had blown. I've often considered not using my own gear and just using the monitors...

    Quite frankly, it's sh*te. Anybody who bought it would have to be thicker than the lowest string...

    [quote name='Bassassin' timestamp='1412955033' post='2573660'] Just to remind - a chap on here's been trying to shift a Thunder II since April. Last time I looked he wanted £90 for it: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/235553-westone-thunder-ii-in-pearl/page__view__findpost__p__2435151"]http://basschat.co.u...ost__p__2435151[/url] He won't post it & it needs some work but I have no idea why someone hasn't snapped this up. J. [/quote] Tried to buy it a bit back. Offered to pay and pick it up when I could and that seemed to work. Asked for address an but no response? Hope the guys ok... [quote name='Annoying Twit' timestamp='1412949169' post='2573568'] Lucky for me I have no intention of selling my Westone, so prices don't matter. [/quote] I said the same about previous Thunder 3 that I had for 20 odd years... I'm a d*ck though. The worst decision I ever made was to sell that. Woe...

    [quote name='Leslie77s' timestamp='1412934116' post='2573385'] Incedentally, she hasn't spied it yet! That's the spirit, I came home with SVT 115 cab last year and told the Mrs my friend gave me it! Poor innocent ignorance! Battered but nice cab mate I'd go for it if I didn't just spend 5k on house crap. If I can swing it I'll message you ASAP. [/quote] Oh! Why didn't refuel the car or zero the mileage! I've been sussed... Had to travel to get the cab and I cant justify 52 miles to Asda. Had to come clean. Poor innocent ignorance! Not this one. Bet she has a tachograph fitted now. She's not been shouting so I'm rather worried...

    [quote name='Annoying Twit' timestamp='1412881224' post='2573001'] Great purchase Itsmedunc. That's a steal at £217. [/quote] It was a good buy. I'd actually bid rather more!

    [quote name='kodiakblair' timestamp='1412874987' post='2572913'] Hope it's an easy one too Dunc The Westone Thunders always sounded great when Henry Thomas was playing them. Gotta say I like the noise I get from my old Concord and the short scale Thunder I threw together. I'm sure it'll be a doddle to fix and it'll be playing in jig time. [/quote] Thanks for that. I had a 3 for over 20 years and sold it a few years ago! Missed it ever since. Hopefully this one will be half as good. Brilliant basses. Had a Concorde too that sold on here a year or so ago. They are great little basses too. Westones are well under rated. If its not a simple fix I'm sure somebody on here will put me on the right track... Cheers

    [quote name='Truckstop' timestamp='1412788689' post='2572095'] I had one of these a while ago as I regret moving it on. Terrific sounding cab; really vintage! Good price too. GLWTS Truckstop [/quote] I know what you mean. I'm debating on whether or not to withdraw it from sale as I know I'm going to regret it. I'll give it a few more days and then hide it from the Mrs if it doesn't sell. Incedentally, she hasn't spied it yet!

    I've recently acquired this and can only tell you what I know. Well used and gigged but all working. Came from a working musician who has moved to guitar. Sounds well in conjunction with an Ibanez Promethean combo as the extension and on its own with the head. Cosmetically challenged you might say but drivers look and sound in good order. Horn works too. Tolex is damaged in quite a few places but is more or less complete and will glue back down (dont have anything in at the moment) and the remnants of the gaffa thats been holding it on needs removing etc. Has all its feet and was told replacement handles were fitted. [b][size=5]Now got some spray glue so will glue down what I can.[/size][/b] 250w at 8ohm 60 x 44 x 40cm approx One hand lift but handle on either side for ease.

Will do my best to protect speakers and backplate.

    [quote name='Mark_ii' timestamp='1412423926' post='2568812'] It does look very like a stingray, no doubt. Does it sound like one though ? How's it for slap bass ? [/quote] Sounds Ray to me! I dont play slap myself but I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem for anyone that did.

    Really nice Musicman Stingray clone. I traded it recently on here for my silver series jazz. Although its a great bass I need to sell to fund a 22/24 fret bass. The decals are applied really well. I'm sure this has come from a clone manufacturer and not a copy with a decal. Has a Seymour Duncan basslines pickup and controls upgraded with a Ki0gon kit. It plays really nicely and sounds very well. Weighs in at 4.6kg on my digital scales. Not really any damage or nicks. Just a small bit on the top edge of the headstock. Would trade with cash (amount depending on condition etc) your way for a Westone Thunder 3. Would consider a Thunder 2 or anything 4 string with 22/24 frets.
