Mine was a Status Shark II 5 string. Red with White scratch plate. Fell in love, bought it and owned it for 2 years. Was sold due to poverty. It was mine from 2000-2002. I'd love to know where it is now

That caught my eye as well! Very pretty... I'm planning on going all 6 now, finding the Roscoe neck the most comfortable I've played beside the GB. The 6 will hbe similar dimensions I think. My desire to own a huge collection has totally drifted recently. One fretted, one fretless is looking like it will be the way for me. Amp wise, I'm sold on the EBS.

Rich.[/quote] Hey Rich, it will be a while yet I'm afriad. It's going to be something very special... As such it may take longer than expected. Also worth noting it will be the first ever Spitfire 6. Untill then I'm rather happy with the set up I have!.

[quote name='pantherairsoft' post='772274' date='Mar 11 2010, 11:17 PM']Update 2 - Collection of faulty combo happened today as promised. Yet another nod for Bass Direct's service. Looking forwards to recieving the replacement.[/quote] As promised the replacement has arrived. Works perfect! Almost no operating noise at all and no vibrations. What a fantastic little combo. Impressive top end due to the tweeter and handles a low B far better than I imagined it could. Having blown a couple of Peavey MicroBass combo's in the past I was reluctant, buy my god… the lap tones this amp allows is stunning. Real loud and compact and punchy. The tone is clearly EBS, but not quite as clean as the big ams so you guys a little unsure of the sound may appreciate it. Perfect little home practice/small gig amp. Very happy

Have 4 small additions coming over the next 4 weeks. 2 custom builds, one boutique and one mass Market. The board is going to kick bottom! Can't wait.

1 of 212 is enough with the Fafner, that's generally what I use. It's 600w and the Fafner pushes much less than that into a 4ohm cab and it's bloody loud with loads of clarity. It's enough to keep up with a full metal band. Have a 2nd 212 is you really need the volume. I found the 212 to sou d clearer and more defined than the 410 anyway. But that's just me. I'd go try them all

Actually, I wanted a second 212. The honest reason I got a 115 was because I got it uber cheap from a friend who was selling off his second rig and I paid next to nothing for it. I actually played through just the 115 the other day though and was very impressed by it's top end response thanks to the tweeter and huge bottom. In honesty it's still a suitable stand alone can. None of this '15's are really bottomy' rubbish!. I'd part with the 115 for another 212 though, just for the sake of matching them up!

I find the EBS cabs handle the bottom end very very well. My 212 handles more than enough bottom end without loosing definition. I find the EBS cabs handlethe top end better than ANY others in my experience. The tweeters on the NEO range are fantastic and they love that 'Bernie ping' at the top. The cabs are a little mid shy though, which I find conpliments the GB, but I end up EQ'ing in a little mid back in with my Roscoe.

I like Bernie pickups with the GB logo on them, like these... They're pretty cool. Not keen on these with the name printed across them though. Love the colour on this bass though. Real deep aqua like. Very nice

I think they work out cheaper in the states. But not by much. Massive price tags. But the Celinders and the like of this world show you can get that kind of quality without the stupid price tag (not that they are exactly cheap!). If take this over an Alembic any day.

Looks quite Overwater-like. Which is no bad thing. It is quite beautiful. Me likes

My baby... One thing I'm not struggling with is volume... 2ohm goodness :-) EBS Fafner, modded with blue LED's EBS Neoline 212 EBS Neoline 115 Auralex GRAMMA pad Ideally I'll change the 115 for another 212... But this 'will do' untill then :-)

[quote name='Toasted' post='774720' date='Mar 14 2010, 09:43 PM']GAS [/quote] Me too... I want a Pedal Train Jnr now to run with my PT2... In a right angle... Going to try and build a wall of effects to keep the rest ofthe band out ;-)

They are very good live. This is the 2nd time I've seen them in 6 months an they have been great both times. They reproduce loads of sounds from the album well, including the electric xylophone! :-)

It was f'ing awesome... Sorry! I'd gonas far to say I'd put it in my top 10 of all time :-)

Mine too! Mini Basschat bash!!

Hi guys, Just got back from the Karnivool gig at Rock City. For those of you wondering how Jon runs his effect processing here it is! I had a word with the tour manager and he let me on stage before they packed his board away... There are two rows of pedals at the back, one on top of the other with the switch unit at the front. The bottom row I couldn't get to correctly but there is a Tech 21 XXL Bass edition there

Yeah, awesome. I saw this before any treatment was applied. The cut of woo was lovely... But that's something else!!!

I played a number of them at bassday last year, and I would put the basses in the top few made basses I'd try. His work is up there with Overwater, Roscoe & GB. I would say it's worth investing in one soon as in a few years his prices will rocket

I have a pair of covers from these chaps... [url="http://www.pianocoversonline.co.uk/"]http://www.pianocoversonline.co.uk/[/url] Not the cheapest out there, but the service is good and the covers are bomb proof!!! They also have many cab and amp model dimensions preset on the website so if you r lucky that they have done one before you don't need to measure up. They make custom amp bags for lightweight amps as well. Used to have one for a MarkBass head, was a well spent £40 compared to the MarkBass branded one at £90
