  1. Yes, I did...still would get rid of them. I'd even take some money for them. I bought the cabs in order to get the head. I am not hauling those around with me...:)
  2. I am using the GP12 SMX head with the AH400 amp....using lighter cabs for small gigs, but, due to noone else wanting them, have the 4x10 and 15 in the garage just in case. Anybody wants them should let me know...
  3. Totally agree here..I've done these types of gigs, and have actually damaged gear by playing on the ground. They should at least provide a pallet or something for the gear. You did a great job with the money issue. Noone should be upset about that....
  4. I had a RD artist when they first came out…awesome tone beast!
  5. Is that a Meteor....
  6. You will be great....:)
  7. This...and watched them destroy themselves...
  8. Not just a hat...a real Fort Worth Stetson...:)
  9. Photo from Sunday….fretless Spectracore with flats.
  10. Two gigs this weekend. Friday night at the Yard of Ale in Peterborough. Great crowd from beginning to end. Fun, happy time. This afternoon in Spaldwick at the Greystones playind in support of Addinbrook Hospital. Outdoor gig with lots of families. Plenty of dancing as well. Myusual rig with this band… Spectracore fretless 5, trace head, and twin GB 12’s.
  11. Second this…certainly the best “all rounder” out there. If you can’t get every tone you want, it’s not the bass’s fault. Ebony board though (which I love) and you will struggle to find a good one for 2 K. I’m choosing this for gigging over every other fretted bass I’ve owned.
  12. I’m glad you said that about the MPV shape…I’ve had the same thoughts lately, especially after spending time with fso’s.
  13. Double duty today at a Country Music Festival at the Windmill in Peterborough. Kicked off the festivities with Stevie Daniels using my Spectracore fretless, trusty Trace head and the GB 12’s. Then on with The Praries 2hrs later using my Yamaha BNNE2 with the same amp. No provided PA, so each group had to lug that in. I provided the PA for the second group, hard to get right without a sound engineer outdoors, but it worked out ok.
  14. I’ve got 2 that are pretty close, but I’d add a Pedulla Pentabuzz and a 63 Jazz with a rosewood board. Also a NS Design EUB. Maybe a really nice acoustic fretless?
  15. It seems that, unless you are selling the current hot thing, it’s not going to sell unless you are willing to go well below market value. Time to take advantage and buy 5ers and non-barefaced cabs.
  16. I always appreciate some kind of heads-up…either calling/announcing the next song or a guitar intro.
  17. Didn’t Acoustic make a 4x15 cab? IIRC it was two rear and two front facing.
  18. Last dep gig for a while with Stevie Daniels. British Legion in Upwell in the fens. Smallish room and only 3 people in the place while setting up, counting the great bloke with a food trailer out front.I was thinking “paid rehearsal. Things got considerably better. Got a cracking bacon roll from the food guy, and the venue was filling up by start time. Lots of singing along, head nodding, and kids on the dance floor. Then the proper party people showed up and we ended up having a blast! Lots of compliments on the band and my playing, I decided to try my fretless Spectracore which sounded great. Lots less muddy under the guitars. A few weeks off now.
  19. Really nice job…I enjoyed that!
  20. I’ve used .135’s, but prefer the feel and clarity of sound of the Elixer nickel .125.
  21. I believe it on paper…guess a blindfold test is in order.
  22. Still, I’m not sure I can get the same tone…especially when cranked up.
  23. Got a nice Trace 4x10 for sale here…monster cab dirt cheap
  24. IMG_6757.mov Sawtry Festival with SDW. Great crowd and line dancers the whole 1 hour set. Home in 15 minutes at 5. The best kind of gig! I might have to hang onto my 1x15 for these. Trace head, GB 1x12s, Jazz bass 24.
