I understand that from an engineers point of view, but a customer? I can guarantee a large amount like ceramic loaded cabs...even if it's psychological. I cannot see them being phased out for a long time now this has happened.

I have noticed I quite enjoy writing nice choppy post punk on guitar and almost write full songs...probably because I can't find a guitarist who likes that kind of thing. I think one on the posters nailed it...I struggle to work with some guitarists as it's all ego.

I think it may have been linked to, but here is the reason why I started to take bass evenn more seriously....good bass players in punk? You'd be surprised how many there are.

Nice setup! Love Aguilar and TC Gear!

Lovely!

I play a little guitar, but bass is better. Feels better for some reason. One thing I cannot stand is guitarists picking up a bass and playing it badly, expecting it to be 'an easier version of guitar'.

What AS or HS cabs are left over at the moment?!

I have mine pre-ordered!

Yep, Ive been reading this on Talkbass. Bold move to cancel so many different lines, but IMO, Jim's ceramic designs are amazing anyway, and I welcome new ceramic cabs. Yes, thats an old view I know, and Id like a neo cabinet, but it looks like its not going to happen now.

Bought my Gig Skinz bag from them, cheapest by FAR...quick delivery. Also I have an Orange AD200b Flight Case from them....nice quality. I had a different on for for 2-3 weeks and realised once I needed it and tried to fit the amp, they had made it too small! They asked me to double check sizes and they made a brand new one very quickly. Great company.

Just to add to confusion, apparently the reports on the Genz Streamliner are that it does the DB750 'thing' very well. Obviously I doubt it has the same authority, but we shall see.

The Aggie DB sound is excellent...I haven't tried an Aguilar amp yet ( ) but the cabs are excellent. Those mids are punchy but in no way obstructive to a good tone.

Dave GAS has definitely struck!

...and pics are now up on Squiers site. That MF is a wonderful looking thing! I might have to get one.

[quote name='jwbassman' post='1187798' date='Apr 4 2011, 02:30 PM']Just bought Gareth's RH450 - condition as new complete with bag, excellent comms and very pleasant to deal with, many thanks [/quote] Thanks John, pleasure dealing with you!

I can guarantee Darren at the Bass Merchant will have a better price! I think they are at the music show at the moment, but I'm sure with them being a large Aguilar specialist you will get it quite quick.

Tbh, GuitarGuitar are all about sell sell sell, probably got far too large a range of stock. Great idea for a shop but they can be insanely expensive.

Very fast, friendly and patient Basschatter! Enjoy the RH450 John, it's a very nice amp!

Lol...agreed the switches on Ashdowns have never worked for me.

The neo single pup (well stacked for silent use on it's own) with the Big Al sounds warm, full, but crazily articulate! I never thought it would sound so clear. Part of that is the pickup itself, but it's very close to the neck and a nicr sound. Depends on the pickup.

If they were 60s spacing and rosewood board I would have definitely been interested. Cool idea.

I'm no expert, but the construction and materials in general are also factors. I'm quite keen to know what happens in 5 years time...what cabs will be after then?

Well it must be making quite an impact. Bergantino stopping AE series production apparently, according to the Talkbass topic.

Er...pics of bass please!
