I've had like many on this forum an on and off love affair with compressors. I sit at rehearsals thinking that I REALLY NEED to squash my sound a bit and even out my playing. A quick look around the net for the latest compressor review and I get my credit card out. After as little as a few days I stop using it because I really don't like the way it messed up the musicality of my playing. Now I'm on dangerous ground when referring to subjective words like musicality. I've must of used or owned around 25 different pedal and rack types over the last 15 years. Then something wonderful happened. I bought a Union Tube and Transistor LAB compressor based on the LA-2A studio unit. All I can say is its the most musical, transparent and subtle compressor I've heard. The down side to it is the cost. Up side its a keeper.

Pawel bought my Taurus head and cab. Great guy and a very easy transaction.

Very sad.

Please let us know how you get on.

I'm the new owner of the bright green Milan V that was also for sale at the Gallery. It also had the sticker on the front of the bass. The Gallery removed it before sending it to me. Like others here I always wanted to own an Eggle but could never afford one or they just were never available for sale. The Gallery had two my bright green one or the blue one in the above picture. I went for the green as it just so..... Um? Green. It plays great and I'm a happy 👯. Just put an active kent Armstrong eq in to match the pickups and it sounds incredible. It is a great bass.

My 1x12 cab is 17kg and is a one hand lift and the head fits in a gig bag with cables and band stuff. Add a bass and that's it for a gig or rehearsal. Perfect.

Hi. I've used Taurus amps and Cabs for the last three years. I find them to have a modern scooped sound with good strong bass and warmth. They do not have a sterile digital sound. The MLO eq section is my favourite eq I have ever used. If you crank up the bass or cut the mids the overall volume does not get louder or quieter, it remains at the same volume. This is very clever and really works. The overall quality is clean and clear with great punch. I get the impression that there is a little compression added to the sound of your bass. I don't mind this at it adds punch. I use a Qude 300 and TS112N cab in a church worship group and a unplugged / acoustic style band. What model are you thinking of buying as I have used a few other amps and cabs in my Taurus journey.

Love the old Peavey gear.
