Personally l love 15s, and have not voluntarily played anything else for a long while... 12s are alright, i played 6x12 cabinet in latvia recently.. that was an experience! 10s are too plinky for me, even the sight of an 8x10 on the stage if hiring/sharing fills me full of sadness sure my band wouldn't agree though

Thanks, that's great, I think I'm going for the knight fall 66, sounds like my solution :-)

Hey there, i'm considering one of these pedals and wondering if anyone has experiences of either or both? I like the idea of the two levels of drive running on the same eq but am i missing out on some flexibility? Any thoughts greatly appreciated :-)

I'm depping for a skiffle band in a couple of months, they are petrified of amplifiers, I'm thinking it would be funny to turn up with this rig!

Referring to the boominess mentioned above, I was surprised not to get that with this set up but I had turned on the 7" "tweeter" so that may have made a difference. I tried a pjb once, nice sound but yeah.. Very little in the way of balls!

On the opposite end of the scale I used a berg nv215 with the acoustic image focus at a festival last weekend, I was pretty scared but it sounded totally incredible!!! Not really in the lightweight arena bit I had to tell someone!!

I've been using a bergantino ex112, the one without a tweeter with an Acoustic image head. Great sound and clarity for DB and great for electric too, couldn't recommend the cab highly enough

Hi there, I have a reverend rumblefish and the neck is perfect profile for me, does anyone know where i might get a neck built to the same profile? Also any experiences with this and potential costs would be appreciated..

Hi there, I was wondering if anyone here could build one of these or advise me, i'm really not sure i could achieve it. I also have another pedal that someone made for me that needs rehousing and fixing up with 9v power.. (Its a pedal featuring a LPB and Hogs Foot in one box) The box is chunky and the pedal currently only takes battery power so it is the odd pedal out and i'm terrible at forgetting to take the battery out! Who are the pedal builders on here and how close do clones usually get? I see a lot of schematics online with necessary components listed but assume it is like valves and basses and everything else in that even if you build it with the correct components it might not sound as good. Any advice or details of anyone who could help would be much appreciated.. I know the BDPG is based on the same pedal but i'm looking for something clean that i can leave on to fatten up the sound of my p basses.. My other pedals are - BB Bass Preamp, Fulltone Bassdrive, Sovtek Fuzz so i have the dirt covered...

Its at Bath Vintage and Rare but does not appear on their website for some reason.. Looks a lot better in person!!

Here is my one terrible picture of this bass by request... It was used in Henry Mancini recordings as well as Frank Zappa!! It was the nicest jazz i have ever played, the neck is amazing and the sound is out of this world and im not usually a jazz fan!!!

For any basschatters heading to Glastonbury i'm playing some shows with my bands on some of the smaller stages so come along if you are there!! [b]Thursday - 10pm West Holts Backstage - Howling Lord [/b](passes needed but pm me if you want to come as we usually get given a fair few) [b]Friday - 9pm Fluffy Rock Cafe[/b] - Howling Lord (In the Greenfieilds area usually, logo as the Hard Rock Cafe) [b]Saturday - 9pm The Bandstand[/b] - John E Vistic (in the market area, not to be confused with the Croissant Neuf bandstand) No idea if anyone reads these listings but a fellow bass-chatter suggested it! John E Vistic is balls out rock and roll three piece style and Howling Lord is country / punk in the tradition of Cash, Creedence and Hank Williams.

Just sold Jon's Fender Jazz Custom Shop back to him, meaning it was more like he leant it to me for a few months, or as Jon put it makes me more like a Pawn shop operator!! Very happy to have sold it back to Jon, he is a top bloke to deal with and completely trustworthy, the transaction was fast and painless and great communication throughout, deal with Jon with total confidence! Thanks again!

I like the David Gage Realist, its always given the best tone for me, paired with a natural sounding amp it can be really good. The best result i have had is with an Acoustic Image focus.

I use an acoustic image focus and a bergantino 1x12.. My pickup is also a realist.. I only just got my new bass after a period of not having an upright, i had decided to sell the amp but after my first session on it i have to keep it, it does sound natural and approximates the acoustic sound well.. I think the realist is a great choice for a natural sound, i have tried a few pickups with this in mind. I have tried the same pickup through a little mark tube and i felt it lacked presence. Im now in the position where i really wanted to get a Tonehammer 500 and a different cab and i have to say i was completely blown away by the sound of the acoustic image.. I still dont like it as much as a doubling amp but im not sure what else would give such a naturalistic sound,,
