If you have the cash and space, I'd get a barefaced Eight10. Those things are epic. Even the Six10 or Four10 will be great. They are designed to have a vintagey tone.

I thought this tread was about OCD...There's another thread called 'what puts you off'... Just sayin'

Music stands on stage because your singer can’t memorise lyrics . Kills the act

To look like the tough man I suppose, 🤨 the same idiots that put lit cigarettes into the space between the strings on the headstock, causing scorch marks....and then companies copying this idiocy on 'road worn' basses. Why, Oh why.

When the PA owner wont throw out or repair damaged XLR, Speaker or jack leads, so when you're setting up you have to try out a few leads until you get one that works, wasting time etc.

It should be punishable by public stoning.

Especially when there's a little hole in the machine head to poke the string end into. Too many windings on a machine my pet peeve. more than 2.5 windings is way too many.

- Really cheap misshapen gig-bags. A broken neck or headstock accident waiting to happen. -People resting their bass up against the amp so that the amp edge makes little dings on the back of the neck. (I had to get this repaired on a second hand mayones - I mean WTF are people thinking) -People resting their bass on the floor so that 1. If its a P bass the strap nut gets driven into the wood of the body, of in the case of a jazz bass the offset edge gets all scraped.

Post-gig cable spaghetti in a flight-case....because we got too drunk after the gig.

Oh yes...carrier supermarket shopping bags being used to transport tangled guitar leads...that old gem.

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
