I am guessing you have got to the limit of your photo allowance. Hang on, I am an admin, I don't need to guess, "you have used 390.6 MB of 390.63 MB allowance", so yes.

Had a great day, nice to catch up with people and talk to a load of new people. Played too many basses, want too many other things now! But we are so hardcore that even the announcements needed a huge PA support!

Undoubtedly i would expect it to be better, but I have used the x18 at many hundreds of gigs over the last 7 years, its been thrown around, stood on, had drinks drop on it and been yanked around by its cables, and in that time hasn't missed a beat once, so I trust it. If I had nothing now I would probably get the CQ18, but there is nothing that I would really gain from it at the moment, and who needs better mic preamps when your singer sounds muffled at source!

That to me says to turn up, the fact that they thought they could try!

4 busses is just that - you put as much of which channels you want on each bus, whether it is one for vox, they aren't exclusive, although they can if you want. Oh I don't know - I just know that using a stereo headphone output for anything other than headphones is not a great thing.

Yeh, that seems quite a drop off for less than a quarter of the price of the 18.

The output impedance and level of a headphone output is very different from an Aux output. For me the price difference between the CQ12 and 18 doesn't seem enough. I mean they are too expensive for me (which is a shame, that 18 does look nice, but the x18 is still working fine at every gig) but if I had the money for the 12, I think I would push it up to the 18.

Hey if he is going to put a duvet cover on himself for a tenner, imagine what he would do for £20!

How do you come to that conclusion? Seems the least likely reason. It says on the specs quite clearly it does. The only thing it is missing from the others is the wireless. the CQ12T - the mixer of the beast!

Yeh, would be ok if they did it in a 5 / 15!

The Gibson EB3 I had sounded just like a thunderbird, which isn't really surprising as it had the thunderbird pickups in the thunderbird position.

Certainly would be innovative

Sound great - they seem to be priceless on their store though!

Sounds good - what are the pickups? I still keep wanting multicoil pickups but never getting round to it!

What are the multicoil pickups like?

No, the tone is very different (between mine anyway), but the same person playing two basses sounds pretty similar overall.

I own twp prestiges and 1 premium (down from 3 premiums) and no standard ranges (again, had quite a few). Well, firstly, yes there is a difference, but not night and day difference. The woods are better, the pickups are better and they are (or can be) nicer made, or more consistently made. However, I play my 1605 more than my 5005 (and more than my 1000, but that is because it is a 4 string) because it is a lot lighter. Absolutely guarantee you will sound pretty much the same on both.

Well, there is the fender Katana as well in the 1980s

I hope there are at least 30 of them!

Not a fan of NR thunderbirds but that bottom one looks ok!

Well, don't get your hopes up that they will do anything too radical! Indeed, looks good. Wouldn't kill them to throw a bass in there occasionaly would it? I know they don't really bother with basses, but the last actual gibson bass I had played really well, even if it was gut wrenchingly ugly! (EB5)*. * I didn't dump it because of the uglyness, it was the string spacing, I can't do 19mm string spacing on a 5.

As I mentioned on one of the companies that posted that picture, I am guessing the innovation is the same guitars in a slightly different colour, and with another confusing label that people will have to explain where it fits in the range.

I bought some off ebay the other day. They are going back today because they are fakes, but very good fakes. I am imporessed that someone went to that much trrouble to fake something so well, but still miss the last few details!

Can bring a EUB if someone wants me to
