I have been using a pair of them a while with a TB 500 Plus Loud Vintage tone Big bottom end Minus Lack of tweeter Vintage tone There a like marmite you will love or hate them depending on what sound your after. I need something with a nastier top end due to a new project so mine are up for sale .

The new batch of 100w valve heads: Ampeg V4B Ashdown CTM 100 Fender Bassman Loud enough for pubs n clubs with no PA support. Rock music drummer no a massive hitter ?

Was that this weekend for Johns Birthday ? Great venue many crazy nights there !

I have bought a fair amount of gear from Mark. Sometimes his advice is great others its just irritating but you gets the facts and a good range of gear the facts not widely stocked. Hence the Roscoe i have and love. Its all subjective we hear what we want to He had a guy helping last time i went in who was a bit of a cock. Greeted me with "Allah is with you" very odd proceeded to burble a load of bollox Alex has always been ace but price wise The Gallery is premium London. Martins work and setups are top notch.

Two penneths If you play rock or any covers really in a pub your job is to sell beer. When i goto to a pub gig i usually drink whereas a pucker music venue normally not. While you having the drink (that allows the landlord to pay you) you wanna have a chat with you mates not a full conversation but a few comments about the band whatever without screaming. Go to Maplin get a decibel meter cheap as chips so you can gauge volume between venues. The majority of pub bands i see have spent probably £10k minimum on instruments and back line. Then by a dirt cheap PA cos its only for vocals which sounds as harsh as hell as its pushed to its limit ! Sadly its us bassplayers who are the root of all sonic evil along with the kick drum its what you can hear loudest outside windows shut or not .

This week was spent arguing with a major guitar store about what is an acceptable finish on a thousand pound bass. Eventually i had to take the bass back to the store to avoid £30 shipping. Still waiting fir refund. What a pleasant surprise then to deal with Gear 4 Music bought 3 items by mail. Found 2 weren't right for me. Called customer service real person within 20 secs no question no hassle they will arrange for the goods to be collected at their cost and a full refund issued. Nice one chaps !
