Something about it screams, Burns having a nightmare.

CountryMan 85 is the standard speaker level DI. Just make sure you plug it in correctly. No idiots allowed.

I wonder how many dropkicks had it before it was forgotten to be the Beatle one? Maybe none and the whole "collection" is some now dead thief's stash.

The lead out of the back goes to the speaker terminals. No reason to suspect it goes anywhere near the handles. If it did it would bounce off the drill. You would need a direct hit with malice to do any damage. You can see how thick the cab material is so there's no reason to drill right through it anyway. Mark drill with a wrap of tape a mm short of what it would take to go right through.

How so? As a DI preamp I can't for the life of me fathom why it doesn't have pre and post loops for more fx. Otherwise, it's got a lot going on that covers a whole lot of ground, including the famed SMX dual band compressor. I appreciate you are already covered for compression, just curious how it got written off.

Pretty darn unlikely to hit anything for starters. If you tape your drill bit so it only gets to the other side and no more before hitting the tape you definitely won't hit anything. If your screws are only as long as the panel and handle plate are thick you can't hit anything.

That's not true at all. Insert Antonio Banderas meme about misunderstandings here. Everyone has to be on the same page or folks are getting the wrong end of several sticks. Most bridges have adjustable saddles. There are all kinds of arrangements but the thing in common is the saddle is the part that the string rides on. That's why it is called the saddle.

It appears they may have pulled their socks up. I just tried bass guitar pro shop and not a single fish popped up. I deserted Google years ago on account of it ignoring my terms to give me advertising with slim to no relevance at all based on just some of the terms. No, am not so thick that I put extra random terms in my search requests!

Better is best.

80hz would be as good as any?

It's for sale. I'd like to hear it at 10 20 30% OD pretty please!

You might find a used Trace SMX compressor pedal for £100. Can't get any simpler for having three knobs. One for highs one for lows and the EQ balancer. Subtle as a subtle thing until you crank on it and then you know what you did wrong. Dood does a really good demo of the one in his TransitB which gives you a good idea what it is about. You could do worse than a couple of pedals gone byebye and go with the TransitB. Unity gain distortion is the holy grail. Never go for the overdrive and blow out the room again. They seem to be going around the £200 mark. Friggen bargain.

Bits that the strings ride on = saddles. Geddit? Instead of two bum cheek indents they have one.

Nowhere. It's the same old heft with added lightness.

Most amps will do hifi = what goes in comes out louder. You go in the fx return. Whether you like it or not is then up to you. GK far from uncoloured but can be EQ'd flat. If you are in the habit of turning down the lows and the highs and boosting the low and high mids with the contour off then you are potentially liking hifi.

Quilter 800 series are hifi unless you raise the input gain past a certain point. You can get loud and stay hifi by only raising the master output. EQ knobs noon is no EQ.

Sounds like you were ambushed into accompanying the leftover muppets who hadn't had a go yet. You need to develop some 'authority' about your output that better players will tag you to play with them more often. That's basically how I progressed while not owning a stage amp until I got offered a gig and had to go buy one smartly.

I hope the drum scaffold gets moved as a unit into a van of the appropriate volume. Suspect not and they all get put into cases and it all has to be tetrised in a particular sequence. I used to play with a demon drummer who could have all his gear set to move before I had unplugged my cabinet. Freakish ability to get gone.

Had one. It worked as advertised but the accompaniment was not in the brochure. Too noisy for me.

The harm can come plugging into the cab with a 1/4" lead and briefly shorting the amp across the tip and shaft, much the same as dragging your lead out of your instrument with the gain up puts one across the preamp. POP. Dead short plus solid state for too long is very bad business.

What's a switching preamp without its foot switch? Mere completion of package no different to buying a bridge for a bass you got last year missing a bridge.

Can still take your head off. How small? I used to play with a guy that had the Orange Tiny Terror on the low setting into a 212. 5w or 7w I forget, less than 10w! He was quite loud enough for a bar room just by himself. I used a 210 and drummer had dynamics for Africa. We would get a better idea of how much of a racket you guys are intending if you tell what the bass rig is.
