Cheers for the reply Neil! Is the case you have one of the metal ones? I've been on the lookout for a plastic 3U case but can't seem to find one anywhere other than flightcase warehouse, and from the look of the front cover it seems pretty shallow...

Hello everyone, happy new year! I've had my AH600 for a while now, it's mint condition and I'd like to keep it that way. The more I gig with it the more worried I get that the wooden trace rack sleeve isn't really giving it the protection it needs. It's pretty much just going in the boot of my car and occasionally in a van, but I really don't want the back or front to get scratched/gouged/knackered. I've been looking at a 3U plastic rack case from flightcase warehouse. I called them up to ask if I'd be able to get the front panel on over my trace UV thing, as this takes up the bottom unit and overhangs a bit (can't remember quite how much by). I needed to know if the inside bottom edge of the front panel was curved like the outside, or if it was a right angle. They were generally unhelpful and uninterested and suggested I find a shop in London, try it out and if it fits give them a call, rather than measure the inside of their case. Unfortunately I can't find any other 3U plastic cases about or I'd happily take my money elsewhere. So... Does anyone know of anywhere else I can get a cheap(ish) 3U case which would fit a '97 trace? It doesn't need to be the strongest thing ever, just needs to not fall apart going in and out of a car, and stop cosmetic damage (and preferably be lighter than Trace's wooden beast). Cheers, Tom PS - Happy new year again, hope it's a good one

Nope, it's my xmas present for sure, but when I tried to order they'd sold out. Waiting 'til they're back in stock... I'll post a review when I get it (haven't really played much DB though so I don't know how much use it'll be) I can tell you if it's fun though.

Yeah bought BGM today, it's a review by Petra Jones, same as the one that Mike posted to me... Definitely looking forward to getting hold of one now!

That'd be great Mike! Unless you can scan it in or whatever? Don't want to put you to too much trouble... If you're sure that's cool though I'll PM you my details. Thanks! Tom

thanks! that's informative, if not exactly what i wanted to hear. ah well, should be fun. anyone else got any first hand experience with them?

Hello! I think I've asked for the stagg eub for xmas... Anyone got one? Know anything about them? Even if it's pretty sh*te it'll hopefully give me an idea of what to expect from DB and should be fun to mess about on. Right?

Hey dude, I have no job at the mo and minimal cash but will download it soon as I get my new job! PS - you were in the road to v final right? my band maxfield were in the final 14

We met in a service station and I left with a monitor and a cheeky grin. It's been a while now and the monitor is still doin the job! So thanks mate, pleasure doing business with you!

I concur, ugly buggers...

Nice work so far! Subscribed!

The Bass Gallery is probably the best of the bunch but unlike everyone else I didn't have an amazing experience. I brought in an Iceni fretless I bought off GBH on BW, it needed some things doing to it, like replacing a 6 string EMG pickup with a 5 string one (GBH neglected to mention that, even when I tried the bass out and said it felt like quite a stretch), but that's mostly my own fault for not realising, and being realistic I would have bought it anyway. So, back to the gallery... I took it in and they explained that I would have to wait a bit for a 40DC pickup but they could try a 2nd hand EMG 5 string P pup in there in the meantime, as well as giving it a setup, filling the gaps left by the downsized pup and fitting a ramp as well as fitting Elites Nickel strings. The onus seemed to be on me to keep phoning to find out when the bass was ready. Finally got it back, had a quick play in the shop and took it home with my wallet considerably lightened. Realised after a more extensive play that the setup wasn't great, the strings weren't elites, and the pickup really wasn't what I was after. I got in touch and explained that I'd still rather a 40DC. They again told me to phone back and I did this once or twice a week for a couple of months but still no sign of the 40DC, each time I called I was treated in a slightly more offhand manner. I suggested that they get in touch with me when it comes in and I haven't heard a peep out of them since. That was around January/February time. I paid a fair bit of cash for the work done and after being treated like that I don't think I'll shop there again.

stu. top right below new topic button is options, click on that and see if it's set as 'standard' display mode. think that may be the problem...

wow, fair enough... in that case i'll keep my eyes peeled for the cheap korg one cheers for the heads up! tom

hey, any of you guys tried a behringer rack tuner? i'm tempted by it's cheapo price, can't afford a proper korg one, just can't justify it... so... any experiences? cheers, tom ps - i know about their underhand tactics and cheeky ways, but this is something i WOULDN'T buy from another company, purely because of the price. pps - hey rich, how you gettin on with the emg pup?
