@Tinman I have the same problem (live in Louth), but pools music in Grimsby have a white classic vibe jazz in at the moment. I went in and had a go on it a couple of weekends ago. Might still be there? As for the fretless VMJ, they have one in music rooms in Lincoln. They are really nice to play. I've just remembered, they have a classic vibe in aswell.... I am torn between the two. I prefer the feel of the fretless VMJ, but don't want a fretless neck, so wil probably go in the middle and get the natural wood VMJ (as it still has the duncan designed pickups on it)

I am waiting for delivery of my Klystron 500. Am getting very excited. Picked it up on offer, for pretty much the same price as an ABM.

2 Rechargeable PP3's and a charger off ebay for £15. Now I take out the batteries every week and charge them. I also keep a spare duracell in my bass case incase I forget the others. It took me a few weeks to get into the routine, but 2 years later and it's second nature.

Craig bought my Trace Elliot practice amp. Nice bloke, good communication. All OK.

Bought my rack wireless. Easy transaction. Nice.

Sold him my V-AMP pro. Nice guy. Good communication.

Panda bought a rack tuner off me. Paid quickly and great communication. Nice bloke!

For the power I always used a 4-way and sound heavy duty velcro to attack it to the inside of the rack case, then used tie wraps to bundle up the cables. Problem solved for under a tenner and you can always change it later, no cutting of cables.

I've got a double Hercules stand and it's the best one I've ever used...

Just sold my Behirnger BTR2000 with the rest of my rack gear and bought and Pitchblack. It arrived today and I used it tonight at band practice. It's nice Has 4 different screen/tuning modes, but cant get the hang of stobe so I'll stick with a the regular needle style tuning mode. (Only downside is that it doesn't let you tune as you play )

Just flogged a rack case to Warpig. Good communication and friendly guy. Paid quickly

I went and tried a MAG115 and an ABM115 and was amazed how different they sounded. I played around with 3 different amps, the ABM500, MAG500 and LG350 and was unimpressed with the sound of the MAG cabinet. In the end, I picked up an Ashdown Classic Neo Mini 15 Cabinet off Soundslive for £330 (special offer price), only £20 more than the ABM115, but lighter and made in the UK. As for the difference between a 210 and a 115- Dunno.
