Do you already have rack gear you use live? I would not want to drag around a rack piece unless it was racked with other stuff I was using anyway (amps, preamps, crossover, etc). But it is your gig. Line 6 makes a couple of versions of the foot controller for the Pro depending on how much you like to move your feet:

Boss, Korg. Korg, Boss. Boss, Korg. Korg, Boss. Everyone says the same thing. Forget that and get a real tuner: [url="http://www.chromatic-tuner.com/peterson-stroboflip-vs-f-virtual-strobe-tuner"]Peterson StroboFlip VS-F Virtual Strobe Tuner[/url]

I am glad the vacuum cleaner worked for you. The last time I tried to fix a dust cap I ended up with a bigger dent than when I started. Now I just leave dented dust caps alone and look the other way.

I have never heard of Martini. My guess is that bass is a cheap Chinese OEM. I would not get my hopes up.

I like the neck on the Ibanez. Thin and fast. Just my preference.

Yes, they did make the 75' reissue in black. I have seen it. I don't know about 2001.

If you have already bunged it with wire wool then try to polish is some with 0000 steel wool. There is a plastic polish made for polycarbonate headlight lenses made by Meguiar's called PlastX. You could try that.

I like this one. It will tune 2 octaves below a low B and has a built in mic so the horn section can use it too. [url="http://www.chromatic-tuner.com/peterson-stroboflip-vs-f-virtual-strobe-tuner"]Peterson StroboFlip VS-F Virtual Strobe Tuner[/url]

+1 on the Markbass. They make a 104HR rear ported with neo drivers. Only weighs 55lbs (25Kg).

I hope you have pictures. I would love to see before and after.

I don't know about availability on your side of the pond but I played this guitar and liked it a lot. I can recommend it for the price range you are in.

Always carry a spare battery but also buy a bass that can be switched to passive because your guitar player might steal your battery for his pedal because he does not follow the "always carry a spare battery" rule. My Peavey Dyna Bass is active but I play it passive all the time. It still sounds good.

Howdy mate. Nice web site, you guys have it together. Looks like your booked through the end of the year.

The Geddy Lee clone just nailed that part. I really thought he was faking it all the way to the end. he is good. Oh yea, Lydia is hot!
