That's him, many thanks @Misdee, some follow-up incoming in a few days......

Think he was English, think he was 1970's.........?

RD Artist?

This thread has made me very happy 🙏

My band certainly would 👍

Yep, and sometimes something that shouldn’t work in theory results in something magical in practice 👍

I have a professional interest in athletes and drug use. I was reading about Victor Conte who was one of the big players in the US steroid scene who died a few days back, and came across this. I wonder how many other quite successful bassists have found notoriety elsewhere.....?

Shit happens, send them back, get a replacement set, sorted 👍

Many thanks Andy, especially appreciate the advice re impedance 🙏 Any plans to bring out a Subway combo?

I’ve owned both, and no it isn’t

Lovely, somewhere between Dusty Hill and Dusty Springfield! Good taste in components also 👍

My lasting memory of my 1516 was our singer's "Dude, your cab broke my car....", that and it going walkabout (geddit) in the back of a courier van only to be located in rural Suffolk 3-months later

....but not as difficult as a 1516

Thanks Steve, I'll take a look 🙏

Yep

"I only told you to blow the bloody doors off...."

Probably a question for Andy @agedhorse but in case anyone else has tried, is it possible to install a Mesa Subway head in a Walkabout combo cab? If so, I think I have a cunning plan

.....and in the curiously predictable way in which this forum operates, I just bough back the neck of the Jazz Bass that I sold Tony, making real on my prophesy.... ......although let's be honest, probably a case of "Me, the thirteenth Duke of Wimborne, with my reputation.....?' When you deal with Tony, you're dealing with a professional at every level, simple as that 👍

Politics are wrong, a bassist needs a drummer to offset the egos/madness of the guitarists and singer I've done it, once, never again 👍
