I'm usually playing between 4-8 gigs a month (£60/£70 per gig) and its really handy income on top of the day job. As I work compressed hrs in my regular job (4 days/37.5hrs) its pretty much an ideal set up for now until I notice nxt month I'm working 12 hr shifts fri/sat and early on the sunday and have gigs on the fri starting at 1am, late gig the sat and 7.30 start the Sunday. Normally it's not so cluttered but a small price to pay for playing music I like to appreciative crowds of 300+ folks each night. Living the dream? Well it's certainly not a nightmare

Luke I was gonna buy that cab but you beat me to it

A few yrs back Guitar Guitar had a huge blowout on Tecamp most of which I think ended up in the hands of forum users. It's nice gear and I wouldn't have minded a go on the bad bull heads. Ironically at the time of the blow out I had a power amp in for repair which I bought from guitar guitar and they eventually gave me a refund days after the heads and combo's had pretty much sold out

I've just passed my test within this last year and bought a little Audi A2. I get my 212cab, head and pedal train mini (which sit in the scooped out foot wells behind the driver and front passenger seat. I've the rear seats out and it's like a wee minivan. Along with my bass I normally take the drummer and all his gear which is one of those big stand bags and his entire kit. There's room for more but that's all I need to lug about for gigs. I've always really liked the Audi A2, reminds me of a baby hippopotamus in side profile, and it suits my needs perfectly! I just dig those German motors!

I just realise I didn't put in any feedback from a previous transaction and having just bought a bridge off Pete can I say I was really happy with the first transaction and even happier to see it was Pete selling the bridge as I knew it would again be a hassle free and smooth deal. Bridge went on in abt 20 minutes, is a great design and probably the easiest one I've ever set up and intonated and was, naturally from Pete, in great condition. Top bloke who always has tasty gear kicking about. Cheers Pete!

Having A/B'd the weight against my housemates dumbbell its approx 25kg but to be fair the dumbbell's tone sucked ass and has no low end whatsoever! The cab is an easy one handed lift due to the handle being placed on the side of the cab, it's even easier in a two armed bear hug!

My other cab is sold so this is staying home. Thanks for all the interest

Sold

I'm usually not pushing the head more than 1 o'clock on the output volume and there is certainly more volume on tap if I push it further. Once I switch on the compressor and the MXR I have more volume there too should I need it but I try and keep everything at sensible levels i.e. all pedal volumes about noon I'm not really GAS'ing and new stuff is nice but it's not gonna sound radically different from what I have - I'm just more concerned about the head exploding mid set - at least I have the MXR and PA should that happen

Luke Next time you rehearse in a practice room try putting your amp against the opposite wall or just stand facing it from the other side of the room if space permits. Those few feet away might give you a chance to hear yourself more clearly as might being able to angle the bass cab a little. We often used to have all the amps set up like monitors in our old practice space as if they were the crowd pointing towards us. Certainly sounded better for us at the time but that was maybe as much to do with the room (which we rented and had all our own kit permanently set up in) -

Lovely stuff! Tom is a delight to work with. I honestly think everyone on TB who is into effects should take the plunge and have Tom build you that pedal you keep searching and trading for. I don't think I've seen anyone complain about either the customer service or more importantly the quality of the tones! For much less than the big name boutique builders he can deliver exactly what you want in a custom finish and thats a pretty strong selling point IMO. Looking forward to the review hamfist! Maybe we should start a review thread in the reviews forum with audio/video? C'mon Shep you already have about 5 of his pedals get the ball rollin'

Just an update to this earlier post- -due to a heap of circumstance I hadn't really had an opportunity to use the cog custom pedal that much recently but I've just had a full band practice last night and it was sounding really good. The band all thought the bass was sounding excellent and better than they can remember! Looking forward to the new 'stock' range of pedals Tom!

Hey folks ** Pictures now added** - you can see a superficial scratch on the bottom of the case near the wheels which is the only major mark on the case! For your consideration is this hard as nails flight case from NSP! I'm not needing this any longer so here's your opportunity to get your mitt's on one! Full details are below as is a link to all the details and pictures of this rather heavy duty beast! It's got little wheels and an extendable handle so very easy to transport. The sale also includes the locking clasps and padlocks which mean no one can just pop the lid and be off with your kit! Just a note this would easily accommodate your MacBook Pro and accessories and although might be over kill it's gonna keep your kit safe as houses! For all you mobile users the case is in Edinburgh. Buyer can sort out a courier as it's better for them to find a deal they're happy with and if you're thinking about collecting in person but live miles away PM and we can discuss a possible meet somewhere - realistically within about a one hour drive of Edinburgh for me!

Bought a valve - I paid, he posted, it worked! Perfect!

I didn't get a chance to try a 5 string lakland yet but did play a bass yesterday with the Nordstrand pick ups. The sound fantastic and the solo'd neck pick up is really nice. I just bought a new to me imac as my laptop melted otherwise I'd be all over this. Maybe in a few months if it's still here!

Flats are great and I often switch between rounds and flats depending on which band I'm gigging with - I think I need a second bass again Stick with the flats IMO it's one of those sounds live which you just cant beat and for all the definition lost you get a real meaty bass sound which just sits in there and works!

Price edit bump in keeping with Amazon's price.

This wheeled, trolly style case is ideal if you gig with/use an iMac up to 24inch. I suppose you could use if for other gear but its custom made for the 24" iMac. It's the daddy and weights about 15kg Full details/spec are here but bear in mind this is for the 21" mac so dimensions are a little bigger![list] [*][size=2]Features. Beefy, stackable ball corners. [/size] [*][size=2]Double anchor industrial rivets. [/size] [*][size=2]Recessed, industrial grade latches. [/size] [*][size=2]Recessed, spring loaded handles.[/size] [*][size=2]Industrial grade rubber feet.

I'm happy to drive within an hour of Edinburgh to facilitate the sale. It's on eBay so if it sells I'll update the ad on here ASAP. For all you mobile BC users the item is in Edinburgh. Oh and I meant to say I have as set of locking clasps which sit on top of the tongue and groove locking mechanisms gives added protection/security whilst in transit!
