Hiya people hence the title , I am running mb250 blackline with my purple chilli cab 300 watts at 8 ohms ? But not I get only about 150 watts out of the head I think?.so at home great great but live not so good really only if di it but it's not always possible .i have to crank the head up which displeases me these days and I don't want too damage the head is time to sell it and move on to something with more poke open to suggestions ps love my sound but not the lack of power ,help please

That is a thing of beauty ,once played a alembic bass ,still want one ,day I'll get one .good luck with the sale

Hiya people ,due too medical problems with my fingers .that is hand held vibration white finger syndrome caused from years of using big machines . I have always used medium too heavy gauge strings in standard tuning most of the time I am mainly a finger player but my digits cannot hack it anymore ,especially when rehearsing and playing live ,so is light gauge string the answer and if so will they still cut through the mix ?. We play cover from the 50,s upto modern stuff ,ps any ideas strings choice that is cheers

Cheers lozz

Thanks discreet ,I will check it out

Hiya Shambo, is second still up for sale?

Thanks big stu ,it's got a big sound its very light as well, I'll try ad some pics this is cab is real cool looking too hey stu what year did you use I like your coat cool

Hiya peeps, can anyone throw any light on these cabs it old maybe 60s or maybe 70s, I picked it up with pa head for next too nothing, tried it with mb head quit punchy I had pics later, cheers,kev

Like dad said few lessons also, I would try too find someone who teaches bass only and not a guitarist who teaches bass, bass is a completely different beast altogether!!! Thats why we love it

Hiya David, and welcome to the low end in good way of course, there's plenty of advice on here any questions ask away someone will answer you no matter how silly it sounds everyone had to start learning at one point, and you never stop learning, all the best. Kev
