Drinks on top of amps ⚡

They really are stupid heavy. I love valve heads but I wont get anything over 20kg. I think that's my limit, even then I had to carry my CTM-100 down 2 streets due to parking constraints and I felt like my arms were about to fall off.

Those P-style pickups for 5 stringers with the blank gap on the treble side...aaahhhhh

How is that achievable...or even sustainable (excuse the pun)

Well judging by the contributors on this thread I'm either a complete slob with no taste or you're all completely mental! 😂

They sound great and have a really high output, really punchy.

This is a early iteration of the Jabba-4. I guess they were just using stock parts. I thin the latest ones uses their own design, tell you what...Its a cracking bass to play.

It cant be got for that discontinued model of bass (I asked Mayones). Anyway , I'm not keen on drilling holes into the body.

I've nothing to hide!

when you turn up all the knobs on your jazz bass and the pointer isn't continuous through the 3 knobs, i.e. the pointers are slightly out of alignment. ...thats heart breaking.

I once used my CTM-100 with the two10 on its side. It was a bit ridiculous looking and verging on a safety hazard.

This is bound to upset folks...anyway here are amp setups ive used. 😁

If you’re into old school valve heads and don’t want to use a 4x10 you’re kinda caught there . Never bothered me so long as all 4 feet touch the cap OR the cap fits between the feet. Partial feet resting on the cab is just ridiculous

I got obsessed a while there with having the relief and string action exactly “right” , got feeler gauges and those metal string height gauges to get the height “correct” which always felt a little on the high side for me . Eventually I threw out the rule book and Adjusted the neck relief and bridge action to what felt and sounded right to me and I couldn’t be happier.

It’s like they have a personality

People over valuing their item

I think those glowing bottles are mercury vapour rectifier valves . I say the thing sounds marvellous

I love this geeky clip

Ball locks to the rules 😂

Didn’t stop me nearly buying one of those second hand ABM 810s available at Ashdown

You won’t get much good out of high powered amps and 8x10s turned up to 1 though . Maybe this the the final thing that will kill the “big rig”

Just browsing around here it seems a lot of people are trying to unload surplus gear with this covid-19 situation, some for much smaller money than I've ever seen. and that's just the musicians. The whole industry must be on the verge of collapse. I wonder will a lot of stores and even websites go to the wall 😗

I was toying with the idea of selling mine but decided to get it serviced instead. I sent it to Ashdown where Guy there fixed a few bits and bobs, now I think I'll hang onto it as It sounds great. Like yourself I didn't really gig with it as much and used solid state amps, but when this is all over I intend to make it earn its keep.

I haven't played my one in anger in a long time 😥

A lot of CTM30s /LB30s for sale at the moments on this site . A great way to get into valves .
