Different cab I know, but the drivers in my Mag 810 are blue.

[quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1364200008' post='2022948'] The TC is a good move. Getting lighter cabs an even better move. Stupidly I left it until after I damaged my back lifting heavy cabs. It looks like you've a lot of big old cab technology. You'd be surprised how good modern light cabs sound, and how loud the smaller cabs can get. The TC 210's and 212's sound very good with their amps. As you're already an owner I'd check out Warwicks for 5ers. [/quote] TBH I think the GAS for a 5'er will pass, I'm currently working with two cover bands and the hipshot's on my 4's get me low enough atm. Maybe at some point I'll get a cheapy to mess about at home with. Lighter cabs are definitely higher up the shopping list at the moment. You're right about the amount of old heavy tech I've got now though. The list of stuff which can be classed as surplus and moved on currently reads: Ashdown ABM500 Evo RC Ashdown MAG 810 Warwick WCA411 pro Warwick WCA115 pro Warwick WCA211 pro Sansamp PBDDI Korg DTR2000 Although I did discover on friday that some twat at our rehearsal space tilted and dragged my 8x10 sideways and the caster bracket has gone through the base of the cab, so looks like that'll be staying with me as a practice cab now!! So, I guess I've got some photography and ad writing to be getting on with!

[quote name='hamfist' timestamp='1364111028' post='2021923'] Uh oh ! [/quote] Uh-oh indeed! Certainly didn't see bass GAS coming. Strange thing is, I've never owned a 5 string, in my two current bands I don't really have any need for one, but the low B sounded HUGE, certainly brought a grin to my face!

Not sure how the dimensions compare but I had a Gator bag for my GT6B and it fitted perfectly, good value too.

Thanks guys. I do like the look of the Baer cabs, they are a little beyond my budget at the moment but as I said, I've currently got 2x10, 4x10, 1x15 and 8x10 cabs so i'm fortunately in a position where i dont have to rush into anything so I'm probably going to wait until the coffers swell a bit, shift on some of my un-needed gear and make sure I get some really decent light cabs. The coincidence with the trade was amazing, especially given how uncommon those tubepath heads are. My football match has been called off this morning so I'm gonna re-string my Warwick with its first set of Elixirs and spend some time playing about with the TC. Only bad thing to come from all this, when I went to the guys house to try it out he had a lovely Ibanez SR1205E which played like a dream, and now I can't stop looking at them, here we go again.......!!

Have gone and done it, I've joined the lightweight gang! The band have been travelling to gigs individually more lately as we no longer have access to our van, which has meant humping gear back into the house in the early hours. So, after some research I'd decided that the features on the TC RH450 would suit my needs. Well one just happened to turn up locally, with footswitch and gig bag for £450. So off I went this morning, money in pocket to try it out. I should add that my plan was to advertise my ABM500 and Warwick tubepath heads, whichever one sold first the money would go towards the TC and the other would stay with me as a spare head. Anyway, whilst testing the head I happen to ask the seller why he's selling, turns out he's been hunting high and low for a Warwick Tubepath 5.1! So a deal was struck there and then! What are the odds, that I find an RH450, local, at the right price, and the seller just happens to be looking for the exact amp that I'm selling! Happy days. Only question is now, would it be daft not to get some lightweight cabs to go with it! Time to advertise my ABM500, Warwick WCA 211, 411 & 115, sansamp and Korg rack tuner me thinks!!

I'm interested in this too, as I'm going to try out an RH450 on Saturday with the intention of it replacing my ABM500 and Warwick Tubepath.

Looks like a Legend to me. If you can, ask the seller for the serial number and email the guys at Spector, they'll get back to you pretty quickly, their customer service is excellent.

(sorry If you've been asked many times before, but it's 3am, I'm at work,and far too lazy to search old threads at the moment!!)

I use one of my old football kit bags, plenty of space in the main compartment for leads, pedals, guitar stands, towel etc, and 2 end compartments which I use for spare strings, batteries, tools etc. Cost me £20ish and probably saw about 5 seasons of football action before being moved on to gig duties!

If money was no object I'd have 2 matching black Jupiter's to go on my living room wall, one on either side of the fire breast wall! And before I get flamed by the people who will say "basses are meant to be played", I said if money was no object, so I'd obviously buy a third one to play while I looked at the other 2! I think they are stunning creations.

[quote name='Mudpup' timestamp='1362522437' post='2000896'] The NS2000 has an EMG BT preamp - not a Tonepump. Tonepump isnt notched. [/quote] Ah, that would be why it's different then!!

I love my NS2000, I imagine the Euro LX's would be fantastic. If I ever decide to move my Warwick Streamer on then a Euro LX will be replacing it. The tonepump controls on my NS2000 are notched in the middle.

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1361913929' post='1993100'] No, it's ow-ow ow, at 3.35. But not on the previous two times. Funny how you remember things wrongly! [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gpim0FdylFA[/media] [/quote] Great song!

In my main band all 4 of us do other things on the side. We just have an agreement that the main band is our priority, we have a hotmail account which we can all access and keep the calendar up to date so we each know what the others are doing and when. For me personally, the side project is very important. It gives me chance to do stuff I can't really do in the main band, and that stops me getting frustrated. And as others have said working with new musicians doing new stuff can be like a new lease of life. Enjoy it, hope it all comes together for you.

I posted this a year or so ago. I think if I remember correctly this video is quite old, he's about 18 now, he's Brazilian i think and very well known there,

My '09 Streamer LX.

The Kilo looks a great piece of kit. I really wanted one before they released it, but impatience got the better of me when they kept pushing the release date back! I'm sure my back is quite happy about it though! I think that's what's drawing me to a RH450, great feature set like the kilo but a bit friendlier on my fragile back. Having said that, I heard a Kilo through a Mesa powerhouse 1200 a couple of months ago and it sounded absolutely immense, I imagine through the Berg it would have the same impact!! PS there's a Kilo on evilbay at the moment starting at £499 with a 12 month warranty and no bids yet.

Ampeg SVT7 Pro, or GK1001RB? Any particular reason for moving away from the RH450? I'm gassing for one but can't quite decide whether to pull the trigger or not!!

I used an ABM500 Evo RC for years and it never missed a beat.
