Pretty much my only issue with the Miller preamp is the ridiculous amount of boost/cut available. One barely has to touch the bass control and it's instant rumble. For me, it's unusable past about 1/2 way -- if it's +/-15dB then I'd have been happy with +/-7. It'd be more musical & usable. Obviously YMMV.

[/quote] I see your 1990 and raise you my two main cables are a pair of Klotzes (sp??) that I bought in 1986 after everything except my Wal was stolen. Used for almost every gig ever since. Having said that, I've just ordered my first obbm cable (for the wireless). So that lot should do me till I croak

It's not a Squier neck.

Oh lordy, an April '65 Jazz... not just a YOB bass, but a MOB bass. *whimper* [Img]http://www.cotswoldbassguitars.co.uk/images/190/FenderL65%20001.jpg" class="ipsImage" />

Holst's Planets Suite? It is a thematic concept, after all.

The 'Bangs & Crashes' album of 12"/remixes has a couple of live tracks on it, both with Graham Edwards on bass. The album is worth having just for 'Ball Of Confusion'.

Bellowhead -- their bass instrument is a sousaphone.

Yup, good call.

Ok. This year is REALLY starting to piss me off. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-35499149

1. 1965 Jazz Bass. 2. Wal 5-string. 3. Errm... 4. ...that's it.

Yup, another very happy EBS Neo212 owner here. Best cab I've had since my SWR Triad.

Well they certainly know what they want, and they have ambition and determination. I'm pretty sure that before too long in the near future we will never hear of them ever again.

Because it's a well-known fact that old(er) people never do drugs, as I'm sure Keith will agree.

All the above, especially about them being superb basses. IMHO it's definitely worth paying difference for the P, not that the non-P is a bad bass, far from it.

Old faithful... 1964 Höfner Artist II, my first bass. Bought for 20 quid off my metalwork teacher.

I am fascinated by these things. I love the body shape. Definitely want to see about getting my hands on one at some point.
