    thanks for that. I really enjoyed it.

    I use an OTB through various cabinets but mostly through an SP210 or a Hartke 410. loads and loads of volume and gain, not much EQ. pretty much what everyone else has been saying. I love it.

    [quote name='thodrik' post='1133529' date='Feb 19 2011, 04:09 PM']Once a week is the general goal, of course several times a week would be great but schedules and the cost etc.[/quote] yep same here. Both my bands try to get together once a week, more if we're coming up to a gig if we can manage it. Rehearsals wouldn't be quite so frustrating if everyone in the covers band did their homework!

    oh for friend/relatives that give presents like that!

I remember my first instrument was a clarinet that was definitely made out of plastic, still made a wonderfull "woody" noise. Didn't realise it was plastic until I switched to a new school band at about 13/14 and another kid who had a "proper" wooden instrument turned his nose up at mine and made me feel about 2 inches tall.

    Just sold an Ashdown combo to minimarvel (Pete). Good communication. No problems, great guy. Deal with confidence.

    Its here! along with a second hand SP10 cab (thanks very much to Sean/KingPrawn) its my new mini but powerful rig. Love the sound at living room levels, lovely tubeyness through to drivey goodness. Giving it a proper thrash at rehearsal tomorrow through a Hartke 4x10 and an no-name 1x15. Can't wait. Edit - sounded immense at rehearsal through the 4x10, punchy and a little bit drivey. I sat well in the mix which I've struggled with before (keyboard player is a bit too keen on the low frequencies) heard myself wonderfully. Didn't go above 3 on the volume or 5 on the gain so plenty of headroom for bigger rooms or gigs. Used the EQ to add a touch of bass and backed it up with EQ on my bass. Sounded good enough to eat. Our guitarist (a dedicated Marshall user) was impressed enough to want to try the Tiny Terror guitar head.

    I started out 100% pick style, then went totally fingerstyle (and some very bad slap). Now I play both depending on the style of music and the sound required. Mostly fingerstlye in my covers band and mostly pick style in my originals band. (still very bad slap )

    [quote name='DrDave' post='1091856' date='Jan 16 2011, 09:31 PM']I recently p/x'd mine back to the same shop after 6 months, and only lost £20! Its a great little combo, and could hold its own in smaller venues. We used to Di and use it as a monitor at larger places. Great deal, good luck.[/quote] Nice deal DrDave, What shop was that? You're right it is a good combo. Does what it says on the tin.

    NOW SOLD. For sale or trade. Ashdown EB12-180 Combo [url="http://www.ashdownmusic.com/bass/detail.asp?ID=102"]http://www.ashdownmusic.com/bass/detail.asp?ID=102[/url] This is the slightly older version and does not have a compressor but does have the subharmonic generator (mixed reviews). This has been gigged over a few years and has the marks to prove it but in perfect working order. I bought this when I was starting out and have gigged it against/with 2 guitarists and a metal drummer. It won't do gigs like that without PA support but makes a good monitor or can do smaller gigs without PA. It has a second speaker output so you can add an extension cabinet if you need to. Being as the new ones go for just over £200 (and this one is older and slightly marked), I'm looking for £75 for this or an interesting trade. All items considered, the worst I can say is "no, thanks". If you think the price is wrong, let me know and we'll discuss it. Collection only from Leicester City Centre. Cheers, Rob Edited for pics (hopefully they add in ok)

    another great deal with Sean. Just bought an orange SP210 cab from him. He very kindly drove it into Birmingham for me and arranged a set up so I could try it out before I paid. Great guy, deal with confidence.
