Afternoon one and all, I hope you are well and keeping safe. Just a quick question, if you don’t mind. I’m thinking of buying an Orange OBC212 cab. I had the pleasure of playing through a rig made up of 12” speakers in December, and the sound was simply amazing. It got me thinking that I may go down this route. Have any if you owned, or played through this particular Orange cabinet? If so, what style of music do you play, what bass, and how did you find the can response/sound? I’m in a heavy progressive rock band using Fender Precision’s, and a Vigier Excess 5. Your comments would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, and stay safe. Cheers, Matt ⭐️

This bass is now, “On Hold”. -
I know, but I guess it’s a weird time for everyone, so money is obviously tight. Thanks though, appreciated ⭐️
-
Vigier Excess 5 has 18mm string spacing. One for sale on here, too 😉

I’ve just pulled the trigger on the new Fender Ultra Precision in Artic Pearl. It should be here next week. I’m very excited, and I’ll let you know when it has arrived 😬 I really, really appreciate all of your help. It was extremely useful. Thank you. 🙏🏻

That’s right, they have 2 volume controls. I get the idea behind it, but seems a little strange. Agree though, lovely looking things.
-
That looks so lovely. I had a ‘64 refin that I sold on. I have concluded that I definitely want a P/J config. I also want a modern take on the classic. Thanks so much for your help.
-
I really do love the look of the SB-2, Ped. Finding a new US is impossible over here. I have decided that I definitely want a PJ configuration. That helps. I did look at your bass, and it’s amazing. Thanks for your input.
-
Possible trade options added. It is in “out of the factory” condition. Not a single mark in this bass. Grab a real bargain ✌🏼
-
Definitely 4 of us, and more to follow I should imagine.......
-
Thank you so much. Very good to know. Appreciated 🙏🏻
-
Been there many times, and yes it is 😉 Mark and his lovely crew have taken a lot of my money over the years 😂
-
I did notice that the compound radius, and the truss rod adjustment had changed on the Ultra’s. Also, I believe, on the Ultra, the nut is 1mm smaller than the Elite. I have a friend with an Elite, so shall approach him to see if he wouldn’t mind me having a play. Thanks for you input, much appreciated 🙏🏻
-
Thank you, Paul. There are some really lovely combinations to be achieved via Maruszczyk. I’ve been on their configurator a lot lately 😂
-
Thank you so much. That is precisely the kind of info I am after. Brilliant. I have been looking around a lot, and the US G&L SB-2 as well as the Shuker P/J’s have also got me interested. Thanks again 🙏🏻

It’s my birthday today, and feeling very chilled which has led me to now opening this up to offers. Try me with a figure, you may be surprised, as I may be drunk 🥴 😂 Cheers ☺️
-
Thank you. Which one did you buy? How is the neck?
-
A lovely bass, and thanks but I’m a maple board, and solid colour type of guy. GLWTS ⭐️
-
Here’s another one I really love the look of. So many options 😬
-
Thank you. I will get to try a Fender later this week, not like the one in the pic, but still an Ultra. That should help things a little. I will also try and get to BD, and try the “M” bass. It is very close to call. All input is appreciated ⭐️
-
Thanks for your insight. May I ask what you think the edge of the “M” was, for you, over the Fender?
-
I may have to. Not exactly local, but a great idea. Thanks ⭐️

Seeking the advice, knowledge and expertise from the BC community, please. It’s a significant birthday soon and therefore, I’m looking but something to mark it. I’m thinking of going back to 4 string bass, and if I do, I definitely want to go back to my first “love”,the Precision. The new Fender Ultra looks amazing, and having done some research, the Maruszczyk basses have been getting some amazing feedback. I’ve configured the “M” to what I feel is my perfect spec, but I’ve never played one. I can go and try the Fenders, any time. I’m worried that if I buy the “M”, what happens if I don’t like it. Has anyone done an A/B test between these 2 basses? If so, what are your thoughts. The basses I have dejected are exactly the same price. Too close to call. Any help, insights etc would be hugely appreciated. Thanks in advance ☺️

Thank you ☺️

Thank you for the messages but just to reiterate, I am not looking for trades. I am only after a straight sale please. Thanks again. Take care. Cheers ⭐️
