  1. Great that all was well. @Phil Starr and @Bill Fitzmaurice provide great advice, if you own more than one cab take as many as you can transport and just plug up the cabs as necessary. Having too much power is easy to remedy by using the amps volume control. Having insufficient power is more troublesome. DI into a good FOH is always a good solution.
  2. Here's my view. @Pea Turgh '69 EB3, '72 Fender Telecaster bass, Fender Mike Kerr Jaguar, Squier Rascal, 2017 Gibson SG, Epiphone Newport with Artec Pup But it's important to take into account not only the pickup postion in relation to the 12th fret but also the tone cap value used. Notes 1 Neck Pup only on all the above 2 The '69 EB3 is neck Pup only without the inductor engaged ( engaging the inductor opens the bowels of Hell in the Lows) 3 '72 Telecaster is all original stock Pup and pots. 4 The Mike Kerr SS Jaguar Pup at 10ins from 12th fret 5 Squire Rascal SS neck Pup at 8ins from 12th fret 6 2017 SG is NOT a mudbucker, it is not a sidewinder design it is a standard side-by-side humbucker design. 7 The Mike Dirnt has an all original '72 Telecaster bass Pup expensively sourced from a guy in USA added at the neck with 3 pos switch to engage the '69 P Pup 8 The Newport re-issue bass had the Epiphone ceramic Sidewinder Pup swopped out for an Artec Mudbucker These are my views only, of the basses I own, just to add some context to your question to compare Pups. This Squier Telecaster Bass looks the real deal and if it has the same Pup as the Rascal it should sound amazing for the price point. I hope Fender release a Squier version of the Mike Kerr signature in black with a maple neck and tort pickguard, as I will be first in line to buy!!
  3. Me too, my early USA Fender Stu Hamm signature "Urge" 32ins scale bass had pau ferro fret board, great finish, very closed grain, absolutely fine.
  4. Fantastic bass at an extremely attractive price. GLWTS
  5. The USA EB MM Sterling is very comfortable, fast neck. The maple neck maple fret board are probably the best. The pickup has a huge tone range. There's a couple for sale at Bass Gallery and a lovely maple neck ash body at Bass Bros.
  6. Do both Monza cabs have a 1.7kHz crossover?
  7. Pickup List 250514.pdf Here is an extract from the 2020 Spector User manual which lists the stock pickup in the Thru-neck Legend as being an Aguilar DCB pickup with the Aguilar OBP-2 preamp. I will need to take the rear cover off to confirm the pre-amp. The bass has not had any components changed since it was purchased, it is in a brand new condition.
  8. All stock. I'll post the detail specs shortly.
  9. Arthritis in my thumb has forced me to only play short scale basses so I am continuing to reduce my collection of basses. So, to gauge the level of interest: - Here we have a genuine N.O.S. Korean made Spector neck thro Legend Classic. ( Tonepump Jr ??? ) The bass is literally brand new it has never left the house and played once or twice a year. It was bought as a collector’s piece and has lived in its Spector case in my music room since purchase. As New Old Stock it would be the buyers joy to have a brand-new bass needing the protective film taken from the control cavity cover. The serial number suggests that it was produced in 2017, probably one of last batch of Spector basses manufactured in Korea.
  10. Please could someone help me identify the date of manufacture for this Legend Classic 4 serial number W170329 ?
  11. Tried the MLA out on a Jack Bruce specific tone on the 69 Goodbye album and it worked a treat. Thanks Si for the heads up.
  12. Now that's interesting, is my understanding correct, you simply entered the tone you wanted and the machine provided the settings? Which MLA did you use? Finding tones and sounds on Zoom B1FOUR would be a breeze if the MLA did all the hard work, even if the suggested settings needed tweaks.
  13. NBD Fender SS Kingman V2 So a new casual project as a Duo with a Local singer/ guitarist required a new member to join the herd. It's a very nice Fender SS Kingman V2. I previously owned a long scale Kingman with a great Jazz neck and huge body but moved it on due to the arthritis. This short scale is a dream to play, lovely roasted maple, satin block inlaid neck with a 38mm nut wideth. Plenty of volume for settee noodling and a great range of tones from the Fishman PreSys+. Sounds fantastic through my DIY Fender(?) IMP. A nice size body but the fret board is a little dry.
  14. And here is another Fender from Indonesia SS KIngman V2
  15. Sorry I have no sound clips. It has a typical P bass sound with the added advantage of a DiMarzio Split P pickup, which adds more gain with extra lows, mids, & highs coupled with a UK handmade @KiOgon loom. Visit the DiMarzio website to see the sound diagrams and output details.
  16. Continuing the reduction of my long scale bass herd I have for sale a very nice P Bitsa. Built a couple years ago with a lovely gloss finished two-piece ash body fitted with a DiMarzio Split P Pup, a US tort pickguard and @KiOgon loom. The neck is a lovely gloss finished, slim profile, edge bound with MoP block inlays Jazz type neck. It has an aftermarket 3D bridge, “F” logo neck plate with fully working truss rod. I have suitable cartons so shipping at buyers cost is offered. Thanks for looking.

  21. If you love your current rig and have sufficient budget just buy a Fender Rumble 800 combo. It's a very flexible, convenient combo producing a great range of tones and volumes. And when required just roll out your current Super Twin rig.
  22. That is a really nice mod. Well done looks fantastic. Congrats & enjoy. May I ask what is the distance from the Centre line of each to the 12th Fret
