  1. [quote name='warwickhunt' post='817101' date='Apr 24 2010, 11:42 AM']I REALLY hope someone buys this before tomorrow afternoon; I hate coming away from your place with more than I bargained for... and less in my bank account! :)[/quote]

    ha ha..... yeah that's happened a few times !

    I could always sell it to you cheap on the basis that I can borrow it back :rolleyes:

    What a Bum eh !!!

  2. [quote name='Beedster' post='814930' date='Apr 22 2010, 01:09 PM']Good to have you back amongst the bass playing community mate. I'd so be there if I wasn't 300 miles away!

    Some mate you are......

    Awesome gig not exactly a sell out but it was a 500 capacity venue - Played our socks off then put them on our C*cks !!!!

    I have zero skin left on my fingers

  3. [quote name='warwickhunt' post='816943' date='Apr 24 2010, 07:54 AM']No one could accuse you of gigging for the money... that ReetHCP gig must have cost you a fortune to do! :)

    Rest assured I know the story behind this bit of kit/sale and this is a genuine bargain! :rolleyes:

    Speak to you soon M re. getting the rig/bass back.[/quote]

  6. [quote name='uzzell' post='799844' date='Apr 8 2010, 02:43 PM']This album, like much of his stuff is over-rated. I dont doubt he is an OK bass player but his music leaves me feeling cold and bored.[/quote]

    How odd..... :)

  7. Not a great excercise in brand marketing this !!

    So you build a reputation over decades as a custom builder charging £2-£3k for a bass and you allow your brand to be diluted down like this....

    If these basses are Tanglewood built instruments - designed by Chris, then shouldn't they be logo'd "Tanglewood by Overwater"

  8. [quote name='theosd' post='788877' date='Mar 28 2010, 09:07 PM']Ack. If only I could justify spending that much on a fretless!![/quote]

    I know what you mean..... I bought a Jaco C/S off beedster a few years ago when I had a weekly "acoustic" night residency - soon as that gig fell over I had to sell the fretless.....

    I wish I could justify a good fretless again, so much fun to just mess around with

    Big thumbs up for Martin too...... top geezer to deal with, but you all know that anyway !!

  9. Haway Mick man...... you can't do this to me !!!!

    I had an afternoon at Micks a few weeks ago, let's say we didn't struggle to find a nice bass or five to pick up (Alleva Coppolo and a pucka 66 Jazz) including this baby !! Let's say for me... this one was the pick of the bunch !

    I'd have took bought this Bass there and then for £1500 notes (and considered it a bargain) if it had been up for sale Grrrr... I'm spent up now !!!

  10. 400 (Aguilar) Watts into a quality 410 like the GS will produce bucket loads of volume for most gig situations

    If it isn't enough..... take the other one as well !

    I regularly used to take both 410's but only plug in the top 410

    Unless you're playing stadiums (where most of the time you'd have IEM's anyway) you'll never need more than you'll have with this set up

  11. [quote name='jsixties' post='755751' date='Feb 24 2010, 04:56 AM']Thanks guys!
    How do you see these GS410 in the 8 Ohm version? These ones are available just now in my dealer and I can pick up those cabinets at a slightly better price than the 4 Ohm ones.
    I know I get half of the power with the 4 Ohm cabs, but maybe the head works better and cooler that way and the sound will be the same... or better.
    Sorry for the bothering but any experience that slant the 8 Ohm GS410 over the 4 Ohm ones?
    I know I'm irritating but is a great investment just now for me.[/quote]

    I forsee a gig situation where a pair of 8ohm GS410's driven by a DB750 wouldn't be loud enough !

    In reality the difference between a pair of 8ohm and a pair of 4 ohm wouldn't be that noticable give the power and headroom of the 750 at any 4 or 2 ohm. Arguably the 8ohm cabs will sound better due to more efficient cone damping at 8ohms

    Buy the 8ohm GS410's and live happily ever after
