    I think it can be in line with any other amp to speaker situation as it doesn’t ‘draw’ on the amps impedance….so you could be running a 4 ohm amp into 4 ohm speaker(s) but still hook this up to the system without affecting the ohm load to the amp. I have one of these, they are very good and at last, your own dedicated bass monitor! The volume isn't anywhere near as loud as your main speaker but at ear height, especially in the acoustic setting, it gives a great ‘ear’ experience.

    Solder station.....power supply that you can attenuate and keeps the heat up when soldering, decent ones around £50-80 or more on Ebay

    I’m sure it was a SM58 vocal mic, maybe the D12 drum mic would do a good job?

    My DB teacher of some years ago used a Shure mic wrapped in thickish foam, ‘jammed’ between the bridge feet with the mic head facing upwards in line with the fingerboard……plugged into a 30 watt valve amp and 12” speaker, great sound. (That teachers name was Roy Babbington).

    PMd…….looking to buy.

    I find most side dots to be too small especially on Fender basses so always use 3mm white as white side dots when building or refurbing a bass. (I haven’t found 3mm luminous ones so far). The problem is if the fingerboard is ‘thin’ at the edges a clever bit of repositioning the centre of a new 3mm dot is required.

    We had an excellent gig, decent turnout considering it was -10c on my way home...at least new heaters inside made for a nice warm room!

    I will be playing this coming Thursday 8th Dec 2022 with The PAPA GEORGE BAND at the Farnham Maltings in the Cellar Bar starting 8.30pm. George has run his own bands for decades playing his brand of blues rock, U.K. and USA blues awards, he is a real deal musician earthy and great attitude. He was regularly joined onstage by Gary Moore. Brendan O’Neill is on drums who was Rory Gallagher’s man for many years and Nine Below Zero’s…we’ve all ‘done our time’ on the road. It’s an arts centre so pay at the door entry on this one….

    Top writers of their time, such a big selection and style of songs through their time together from their first pop albums and singles through flower power, a top rhythm section and melodic playing from McCartney and Ringo. Yes they are of a certain period in music at that time but still sell and two of those ol’ boys still tour. They must be very happy to have come from very humble backgrounds and are still able to play music into their 70’s and get an audience. Not bad when you think about it!

    I would like front ported bass cabinets too….the new cabs in a 2x12 are shorter and wider than older 2x12 options, I would like to see a side front port on those.

    You should email direct to Seymour D in America....companies need feedback direct to them especially if you are buying new pickups with continued faults. They may even, if you are lucky, ask for the pickups to be sent to them (via their UK distributor hopefully) and should replace them for you.

    2023

    mybass replied to slystewart's topic in General Discussion

    I book a fair amount of gigs and I've already said to one 'agent' for a 2023 gig, one band I book out won't be doing what would have been a welcome gig, simply because after fuel and a few expenses, each member would have got home after two days driving and a late night gig, with about £80. For older and those closer to being a professional aka earning from music as a living, we are all counting the cost of recent and exorbitant increases and so we should be trying to raise our fees many of which have simply not gone up for well over ten years and more! Maybe a little at a time but it simply has to be done.

    What an interesting instrument, I’ve never seen one of these….and out of interest, would you know the scale length?

    £85 includes UK postage. (I can't figure out why I can edit the 'Title' wording but not that £90 figure?). These are as brand new, fitted and tried out. I preferred these over Nordstrand. Great P pickup replacement, solid full sound with a touch of bight to them. Here is Bartolini's take on them.... "Our b-axis P-Bass® Pickups are all about enormous, clear tone. They feature a new and unique fully encapsulated Alnico V exposed pole design, and yet they are still fully shielded like all our enclosed pickups. The cable is shielded as well. b-axis Jazz bass pickups are dual-inline hum-cancelling design for use in professional venues and studios. They are sweat-proof and won’t make nasty noises if you touch them. b-axis pickups are super punchy and bright, but also warm. They have outstanding articulation, attack, and harmonic response. Musicians who play jazz, rock, country, gospel, and hip-hop are already finding their voice in b-axis pickups.

    Bought (£65) a couple of weeks ago to make up a smaller pedal board, great sounds with simple controls but its not rocking my boat over my MXR chorus sounds which has more variants. The plunge/foot switch might need more attention or more playing but I’ve switch cleaned it and the rotary knob too…..sounds clean in operation. Post probably a few quid. 9v power supply or battery. Decent all clean condition, doesn’t look to have been used much at all.

    Shouldn’t be a problem then, the bigger the cab the better I would think.
