[quote name='Bloodaxe' post='1177811' date='Mar 27 2011, 01:35 AM']From a bit of nosing around t'interweb, I turfed up these: It was on the corner of Stanstead Road & Wastdale Road (just before the Fire Station & the Shell garage if you were heading towards Catford). It 'mysteriously caught fire' in 1978 & there's a modern block of rather yellow flats there now. Welcome aboard Balbosa... at this rate, we'll be able to hold a SE London Bashette.[/quote] That's the one. I played there in'78!

[quote name='balbosa' post='1175402' date='Mar 24 2011, 11:30 PM']no way! thats been shut down now for as long as i can remember its such a shame looked like a good venue i cant believe how close everyone is[/quote] I grew up in Crofton Park in the 70's, so the places we played were The Greyhound, The Yorkshire Grey and The Dutch House on the A20, The Swiss Cottage in Forest Hill and the New Tigers Head in Lee.

Well, I got this new from Charlie Chandlers Guitar Experience a few years back and have only used her at home, so she's in immaculate condition. I had it custom ordered with a Celestion Blue speaker which is a perfect match. It is a stunning guitar amp but too loud for home use and, as a bass player, I don't get to use the amp like it should be used - cranked. Comes with silvertone padded cover. These amps sell for over £1600 new, without the Celestion Blue which adds another £190: I have just picked up a Marshall Class 5 for my home guitar noodlings so this is now definately on the block. Ideally looking for trades (guitars/basses), or sell for £1175 -

That is nice..... -
My Warwick Thumb NT has an ebony 'board and it's my go to bass for gigging, so it must be doing something right!

[quote name='waynepunkdude' post='1173666' date='Mar 23 2011, 06:52 PM']Cabs aren't a problem, my Ampeg is lighter than the head I've heard the TC heads have reliability problems, have you had any probs?[/quote] None whatsover. Probably done about 40 gigs so far.

Welcome aboard. Used to play in the Greyhound in Eltham many, many years ago.

I take a back up bass to all gigs and I designed my gigging rig to have built in back ups to get me through should anything fail. People pay the band decent money and we have an obligation to give them a goiod show for that.

You should seriously consider a TC Electronics head (you can buy a rack mounting kit for these). They are less like the 'hi-fi' and more weighty sounding that other Class D designs I own/have owned. Certainly changed my view of what to expect in lightweight amps. As for cabs, I'm still not convinced by lightweight speakers/cabs. My solution was to get a pair of Bergantino HT/EX 112 cabs which are very portable but have the 'slam' that Neo's don't seem to deliver.

It will be my '62 Precision, which my dad bought for me back in '75 (he couldn't afford a new one!). She's been round the world a few times with me since.
