Been delving into music theory for a while, was a bit familiar when I was doing my Bassoon grades @ School. So am doing my own stuff, primarily a home Bassist. Though Jams are improvs on familiar songs with my Pals, do like a Geddy attempt plus some guitar heroics.

Had a blast for only 1/2 hour with SL through N210 & N115. Very impressed with versatility and convenience of the footswitching , but could only scratch the surface of tilt etc etc. Didn't strike me as having the oomph/heft suggested by 2x 500 watts though. Nicely made, feels a bit lightweight/flimsy in comparison to a Trace (;?!🤣), but apparently their reliability has been exemplary. Would have given the monster Laney Valve Head a go too but was short of time.

Now reduced to £450. Someone's selling an RH 704 at a rather optimistic £790.

Some of Eastwood's basses look like a sort of "Flash Gordon on Acid" nightmare to me. Each to their own I guess. Someone on Basses and Amplification FB Group loves his AK-47 Bass 😞😅

Had an Audiolab 8000a with Gale Gs01 speakers for a long time. Wish I'd kept them as am still nostalgic for the way they produced music.

Acquired a Laney N115 today - to go with an N410. These are brilliant Cabs and are very well matched both have LaVoce compression HF drivers. Studios where I picked this up use N210 & N115 combined with the SL head in most of their rooms. More on that in another thread, v impressive combination.

It's on sale at Yeovil Guitars. Reduced from £295. No idea what it is either, allegedly constructed by a French Luthier.

Am going to check an SL out on Monday while I'm picking up an N115 Cab, there's an N210 there as well. A friend's thinking about buying the head. Better remember to take a Bass 😆 Will report next week I guess.

Dolby ??

Imagine it sounds epic through that SWR Cab.

A fidget surely.😁

Check the back for "knee-cap rash"

Still at least you got an exceptionally beautiful/tasteful looking Bass.

Both are very tempting, both in much better nick than my 605. UK one seems to have the original Pre-amp. Rather than repair mine's solder blobs etc I replaced with an Audere courtesy of @Chimike

Heft heft heft hefty.😃👍

Nice - Enjoy. Can't get my head round what they manage with those teeny Drivers.

Was about to suggest that you PM'd @chimike having been to get a TE1818 from him recently and witnessed some of his TE wondroussness . Enjoy your great Amp when it arrives. Are you aware that Ashdown have floated the possibility of undertaking servicing classic TE kit, though Essex a fair way from Lewes.

Try the Peatbog Faeries. Croftwork my favourite, some nice Bass.

Saw them live at Forum in Kentish Town a few years ago. Once I got into the sound "sweet spot" I even attempted some dancing. They were top notch !
