  1. Thanks @Steve Browning. The cab is pretty impressive, as is the head. A perfect combo with the possible exception of the 50kgs weight tag. If finances were different I'd keep it but I'm trying to convert an old building into a rehearsal space and the cost of materials is pretty much double what they'd have been a couple of years back, plus I've had to strip out all the electrics and start again, plus the roof's leaking! So, given that I also have the below rig that despite being rather dated and rather heavy, will still cause most people in the room to recognise that the bassist is in charge, the Carbine is on its way
  2. I was working with a guy trying to get this to Slovenia but it looked prohibitive in terms of courier costs and import duties. However one option that emerged was to remove the head and send head and cab seperately, or simply to split the two and sell separately So, in summary I can now post this, although I think UK only I'm happy to sell the head (standard 19" rack-mount) and can separately, £700 for the head and £300 for the cab. Having said the above, I'm tempted to install my M-Pulse 600 in the cab and see how massive that sounds; I used to own the Venture combo and I imagine this would be pretty similar.
  3. Mmmmm, I'm very tempted Nik, have to check the work/kids thing but it would be great to see you and what looks like a great band 👍
  4. But I finally got the Eurosender website to work and a competitive quote 🤔
  5. I get this or similar with every courier when I enter 30kg package UK-Slovenia (and yes, I know it's significantly more than 30kgs)
  6. Thanks Aiden, I'll check them out now 👍
  7. I was reminded of the pain the last time I tried to use them when I tried again today, and gave up, their website doesn't make things easy
  8. Eurosender website not letting me past send address so I'm guessing they don't go there
  9. Thanks @Hellzero, I'll take a look at Eurosender now 👍
  10. Hi folks, anyone done the above, the usual UK couriers as showing 'No Services Available'. A BC'er there would like to buy my Mesa Carbine combo but I suspect it's going to prove problematic? Thanks. Chris
  11. But all joking aside sound, or at least ultrasound, is used in medical applications e.g., tendinitis, kidney stone, cataracts, so who knows...........
  12. Like all such things (mentioning no names but h*******y springs to mind), if you believe it's true there's a greater chance that it's true 👍
  13. Easy ride, seriously?
  14. Is that a product? Looks a bit hand-made to me?
  15. Wise man 👍
  16. Drums weren’t the problem @Dad3353 🤔
  17. Bottom line is that there is no objective measure of noise here, I’ve owned units by PJB, Markbass, Fender, and many others whose hiss and/or fan noise was too much, while I’m sure to others the levels were tolerable. None were faulty per se but each was moved on.
  18. The big thing for me was always the people who worked there. I remember a really tough and hot summer’s night rehearsing Cream by Prince in a room in Camden. Walked out of the room almost despondent with the crapness and the guy at the desk said ‘It’s almost there guys, harder song than you think, just keep at it’. We did and it came together. As ever, with recording, rehearsing, and gigging, it’s less the room than the people 👍
  19. @Chiliwailer 1-bass to rule them all is a very good approach, I’m trying to get there albeit with 1xfretted and 1xfretless. @Dad3353 you’re spot in, tone is 99% how you play 👍
  20. Some guys I know who do it use the space for their bands and rent it out the rest of the time, they make a loss. For a couple of others it’s a labour of love, giving back to the music community, they also make a loss. Most around here have closed now 😕
