You can get an idea of prices on www.public-peace.de

Maruszczyk. Building Fenders that Fender should be building, but better quality and for less money. They should be very afraid.

Mine was this side of a grand, which still blows my mind a little bit.

No harm getting the stuff into the best possible shape and selling it to people who want to buy it. (I won't be, btw).

IMO if MJ had done this, most of the track would have been recorded by a band.

Could it possibly be the result of a combination of the speakers being nearer your ears, and the extended lows of the FOH?

Audiophile quality wasn't the primary aim of these mixes...

I haven't read the whole thread so I'm probably lacking context, but I've had basses fail on me at gigs twice. Once years ago, and most recently a couple of weeks ago. Both times I didn't have a spare, and both times I looked like an idiot to band and punters. (The last one was a simple cause - a wire pulled off the jack socket when the nut had worked loose over time. Just one'o'them things.)

Did you check out The Bass Place in Phoenix?

[quote name='pjb13.bass' timestamp='1437478075' post='2826284'] Which line up of Lindisfarne was it do you remember? Was it Ray Jackson's? He was the original mandolin and harmonica player. There is also Ray Laidlaw's Lindisfarne. Actually it doesn't really matter as neither is half as good as when Alan Hull was alive. I keep saying I'm a Lindisfarne fan but the reality is that I'm a massive fan of the Fog On The Tyne album. A masterpiece IMO [/quote] It was Rod Clements' new line-up. I have the pleasure of playing the Fog On The Tyne album in its entirety sometimes, and it's so much fun. http://youtu.be/HgffQn1ldkc

I'm still intrigued why you're set on a 2x10. If you tell us why, it'll give us more info about what properties you're looking for, and help people make recommendations.

Why so stuck on 2x10s? (to echo everyone else...)

It's nice to see a few more expectant Marus owners on the forum. They're just ridiculously good..

Lovely!

Still lovin' it... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6KwffiAzN4

Just curious: what's the reasoning behind the 33" scale? Does a single inch make quite a difference to the playability? I have virtually zero experience playing anything other than 34"...

Sub'd...

Tell them to book a funk band.

There's a post on TB suggesting that the power module in these might be the [url="http://www.talkbass.com/threads/fun-with-ice-modules-the-new-700asc.1107755/"]ICEPower 700ASC,[/url] which is next-generation compared to the Genz, Aguilar, Demeter, Tecamp, TC and GK stuff we're familiar with. If it is, I might be interested.

Hmm... apparently the Demeter uses the same B&O module that's in many of the common class-D's: Tonehammer, Shuttle, Streamliner, etc. So it's probably not for me. The new Mesa subway uses a next-generation module, so it might be... we'll see.

Stevie DiStanislao is a mint drummer. Not sure about having a lone gadgie on BV's, mind. That's a bit odd. Anyway, I'm sure it'll be great. (Unlike the new album, which sounds like it isn't).

Facebook and, less so, Twitter work for me. As well as the traditional channels, of course.

I occasionally go with my 'ol dad to back him on a few tunes, and anyone else who wants bass (usually everyone). Even less occasionally I'll go with my originals band to give new tunes a run out during lean periods. Despite that, I've got mixed feelings about them. I partly blame them for knacking up the live scene a bit. It's an easy option for pubs.

I specified dark rosewood :-)
