  1. Possibly! Spent a lot of time in there as a teen in the early ‘00s until they closed. Heart breaking. Glad to see GuitarGuitar opened up and really the only place with a great bass selection in Scotland. Kenny’s is now in the old SC. I think that was the acoustic guy from SC who’s running that and I think GG may have been 1-2 guys from SC. I also remember they had a Trace V8 in there. Wish I’d got to try that monster out!
  2. Played a gig with a guitar/drum 2 piece who was using this. The E/A strings were fed into an octave and fuzz to mimic a bass player. Of all the 2 piecer bands that try to work with a split signal they were of the better bands to pull off a solid full sound. Pretty cool but always better with a real bass… 😁
  3. man I miss sound control! Did my work experience in there. Got to spend a few days playing every bass in there through a multitude of great rigs. I still lust after a M/B M2000 and the RoadReady 4x10’s…
  4. I've been a NYXL guy since they came out. I love them. They are very similar to the XL's but last a lot longer and I feel like there is more articulation from each note and my open E has this beautiful piano'ish attack and thunder. I'll pick up XL's if I'm skint but find I'm ready to change within 6 months, NYXL's tend to last me a year. Last set was 2 but due to COVID was playing a lot less.
  5. Unfortunately, having learned from experience, it's always worth getting a second hand amp checked out by a tech unless you know the actual history or have a recent service certificate. Not familiar with issues of this model, so maybe someone will have the solution, sadly there could be a multitude of issues that only a tech can sort.
  6. That’s a beaut! Nice find. Would to hear some clips!
  7. My TE V4 cost £220. It was listed under PA gear. Sadly bargains are so rare on eBay I’ve pretty much given up. There was a TE 2x15 cab listed for £80 in Glasgow in pristine condition recently. Way too impractical for me but what a steal!
  8. Welcome to the club! Haven’t used mine for a while.. should take ‘er for a spin.
  9. Just pulled the trigger on a Super Twin with silver cloth. Hoping it arrives for a big gig on the 14th!
  10. I used an old Super 15 recently supplied by the headline band while on tour. My Trace V4 amp never sounded better. With my current issue of a dud speaker in my 2x10 I have a Super Twin sitting in the Barefaced basket....
  11. Superb! I’ve fired them an email! ill check out Dr D as well, Balcro. Thanks!
  12. Hey guys... Sadly one of my 10” Celestions has died in my 2103H (C10T-90 speaker). The cone is all fine, I believe it’s the voice coil as the speaker is distorting. Anyone have any recommendations for a replacement? Would prefer to keep the cab as an 8 Ohm/200W so I can still comfortably pair it with my TE 15” for bigger gigs.
  13. I've been using the Donner one's from Amazon for the last few months. I've re-purposed a few to make longer patch cables using old guitar leads, very happy so far. Probably the best bang for your money.
  14. I carry pretty much all of the above. I got an advent calendar a few years that instead of chocolate contained a Wera multitool kit. You got a screwdriver head each day. Comes in a small handy little bag that all the attachments click into. Just like this one - but doubt it was anywhere near as expensive. Really handy for adjustOMG action and pickup height on the fly (should really replace some old screws on the basses...)
  15. I had the pleasure of playing through one of the original versions of the Super Twin. Paired with my Trace V4 and it was incredible. Wish I could afford one!
