Very luckily as my Mrs is a tattooist! Free tattoos! Woo Yes I have 2 bass related ones amongst others. . .

Wouldn't mind it on the ABM's or as just a stand alone DI, that would be ideal

Like the idea of the analogue cab sim on the DI, tempted

Went up to the "green room" to store said gear, treated myself to the 1 or 5 slices of the 9 boxes of pizza laid on by the promoter, grabbed a few of the free beers and went back down to the gig room to watch the next bands.

My first proper bass, Warwick corvette 1998, got it with my 18th birthday money and a months wages, back in 2005, i'll never get rid of it, but I have regular gigging basses that take precedence

I have 2 - BF 210's For rehearsals I just use one, against a Marshall 412 and loud drummer. We play hard rock / grunge / stoner stuff, where the bass is quite prominent. The right amp and setting and your laughing. In comparison, prior to this I had an Ashdown Neo 210 for rehearsals and although that was a good little cab, quite directional, and had to have it sat vertical to get a decent pull. The BF 210 is more akin to other brands 410's. It goes louder, deeper and disperses better. I can keep it horizontal and not have to worry about not hearing it.

I use Google Sheets, its free, its a spreadsheet, cloud based, can access anywhere. easy!

looks cool!

Hard agree!

Thanks both Yeah I've got emgs in my corvette albeit a jazz set VVT, so this is my first experience with an MM style humbuck and a single coil with a full active preamp. AHH I've used elixirs for years and everything else feels weird to me now. I understand sticking some emgs in I'd have to get one of the preamps also. I was looking at alternative Delano humbuckers, I believe the one currently in is Alnico magnets which gives it that distinct tone so maybe a straight swap with a non Alnico Delano would be easier. Hesitate to open it all up until I'm certain though. I'll keep investigating, I've got an EQ pedal to play with too so that might help

So few weeks into owning my Sandberg TM4 and although it sounds great at home, I just cant get it to sit right with the band. I don't know much about Delano's but long story short they are a bit too hifi to play nice in the mix, read few threads dotted about online with suggesting similar. Its two band preamp(bass and treble/tone when passive), switch for single coil / humbucker on the MM style bridge pickup, balance control and master volume/push pull for active passive. I'm after less sparkly top end and more low mid range punch. Ideal world I'm a fan of EMG's but I don't think I could drop in a set without getting an EMG preamp too. would an alternative Humbucker drop in and onto the preamp easy? Anyone else done this?

I keep thinking this will be the next purchase, but honestly I reckon now I have your old two10's the ABM 1200 4 ohms a side would be ideal! mwahahaha. Seen a few knocking about in the wild though, although my 600 has never left me wanting

Picked up the MegaPara from Sine Effects, Ordered Wednesday arrived Thursday! Really tweakable and usable EQ!

Yeah, same

Geezer Butler please

Lusithand pedals, both the Ground and Pound distortion, and the Alma comp https://lusithanddevices.com/product-category/pedals/ both awesome!
