[quote name='nash' timestamp='1460040267' post='3022000'] I just played an Elite P in Cardiff PMT. Absolutely loved it! [/quote] Cool! Did you buy?

Were pub/smaller venue bands quieter in the past?
LewisK1975 replied to Twincam's topic in General Discussion
I don't think Pub bands were quieter in the past. What Warwickhunt says above rings true for me, more likely a case of us having to crank our gear back in the day, let's be honest, who actually manages to get their 500watt + amps past 12'oclock on the output (provided you've got the 'gain' set correct), I know I don't. Also back then 300 watts for a bass amp was about as many watts as you could buy anyway. -
Yep even though these would be classed as 'midrange' amps by most, I've never heard a bad sounding one....

Only ever bought face-to-face after finding something on the Facebook buy/sell pages, like others have said, if it's too far away, there's bound to be someone on here nearer who'd go and check it out for you for petrol money....

Having just bought an ABM1000 myself, I now have the same rig as the OP, I have 2 super compacts and intend to use 1 mainly, or 2 for big rooms. Should be fun!

[quote name='geoffbyrne' timestamp='1459852406' post='3020180'] When I got my TRB it had a Delano Sonar something-or-other in it. Lovely sound/tone but very low output - less than unity. It was replaced with the original TRB pre as I wanted to keep the bass original. G. [/quote] Yes I thought this too - very clean hi-fi sound on the Sandberg VM-5 I had, but actually quiet low output.

Done a few deals via the forum now and realized I don't have a feedback thread - so here it is!

[quote name='wenbainhouse33' timestamp='1459778832' post='3019496'] I'd say a market thing. I just got a black mex Geddy and it's a beast! 2015 model and it's great. There are quite a few for sale at the moment too. Anyone who doubts the new mex ones would be foolish. Bump for a great bass and glwts [/quote] Cheers! -
[quote name='neepheid' timestamp='1459777115' post='3019474'] Preference for chunky necks here. Not too thin please, and by thin I mean overall mass. I can deal with the narrow nut if there's a decent chunk of wood back to front. [/quote] Same Here. My '75 jazz is a standard 1.5" nut but is nice and deep front to back ('U' shape I believe) and sits in my hand really nicely..

[quote name='Dvisions' timestamp='1459772237' post='3019381'] Think it's probably a market thing. It's pretty terrible for selling currently, from what I can tell. I'd have this in a heartbeat if I could get away with playing a 4 string in my band, I love Geddy Lees, especially the sunburst model. [/quote] Yep, I think that's true too - I do have a guy locally thinking about buying it, but he's still yet to decide, hopefully that'll come off, but I can't bank on it obviously.. -

[quote name='Chest Rockwell' timestamp='1459770074' post='3019339'] would it be the Mexico thing? I have two of these, one in black and one in 3TSB. picked up the latter from here and it's a Japanese one tho it didn't have a Badass bridge so I added one. i don't follow the intricacies of these things so the Mex/Jap thing might not be a 'thing' in this case/anymore. Personally I love them so if I was you I'd keep it! [/quote] Could be that, I guess folk still have the perception that mexico stuff is inferior to Japan stuff. I think that's possibly too much of a generalization personally. From what I've heard, there are different 'lines' in the mexico plant, with stuff like the roadworns and signature models being made separately to the standard series, also something which has been well talked about on here is that there's been a marked improvement in everything from Fender mex / usa since 2012. And I would be keeping it if I hadn't just bought a YOB (1975) Jazz and a US '75 re-issue (gotta love the natural finish!) -

Don't think you're missing anything, that's obviously what he thinks they are worth.
