The company were originally headquarted in Alsace, originally in Germany then later part of france. AFAIK they've never been based in Italy. edit. been digging and found the eb110 was built in campagnolo. Doh!

Bugatti (the company) is french. (obviously Ettore was himself italian).

Paul Gilbert (of Mr Big fame) has used giant headphones on stage for years. Still looks as cool as ever.

yes. in fact, in a tin in the loft I still have my 'feed aztecs to me' badge.

Loudest and best sounding cabs IME are Mesa Boogie Powerhouse but they weigh a ton. Markbass come a close second for power and tone in my arsenal. The TRV 121H wieghs next to nothing but is loud enough to keep up with a double kick drummer.

Paul Chambers - Bass on Top. Paul's solo album recorded while he was playing in the miles davis quintet but with a different bunch of musicians.

£16.64 on amazon this morning. Happily coincided with my Christmas amazon voucher which also covered the cost of Kathryn Tickell's Water of Tyne. Result !

Can't think of anything by YES I've listened to more than once since Trevor Rabin left. 😉

A half decent retirement package and a cottage somewhere near Keswick.

She's a superb player.I like her ensemble stuff a lot

did he forget to mention he already has Oud, Hurdy Gurdy and Glockenspiel in place?

Agreed - can't make out the bottom end very well. Mind you I don't get why people rate the vulfpeck guy's bass sound either - over compressed and nasally IMO. Back to these two, I agree they're very talented but the tune does nothing at all for me.

I have a Titan V12 which has Bass, passive Mid and Treble that I'm happy to tweak in flight but it also has a single active parametric mid control that I've set once and never touched since. Had an M9 Carbine that had a graphic which I find easier to use but fr my needs they could have left off the 'voice' knob. The Mpulse I just found too complicated to easily dial in a decent sound.

Too much faff for me. I much prefer a simple bass, mid, treble.

D-class with a tube. Will probably sound amazing and be as reliable as anything else on the market. Shame they've given it a bloody parametric eq. That was the one thing that made me get rid of my m-pulse 600.

When I read the thread title the first thing that came to mind was "thank god for that".

the BDDI doesn't come with a power supply so you don't need to worry about 110 volt transformers. - it has a standard 9 volt socket same as just about every other pedal .

Shop window on princes street?

Those mid to late 70's Christmas shows were some of the best gigs I ever attended at the city hall. Still have the tickets in a box somewhere. edit . pretty sure Chris Rea was the support act last time I saw them
