  1. Dear Basschat, I have a problem. I am so happy with all my basses and amps etc that I no longer feel the need to come here and look at things endlessly. How long will this feeling last?

  2. Driving through SW Scotland tomorrow- my main thought is “Moffat - home of ACG and @skelf

    when you consider how much visit Scotland spend that’s a bit sad the extent of my knowledge is based on bass manufactures!

      More importantly, have you booked in a visit to go see him?!

  3. Have just become hopelessly carried away in the Maruszczyk bass configurator... oh well, there goes the morning...

      I do this every few months. It is a dangerous hobby

  4. Playing my longest ever gig tonight. Two sets for a total of c.2 hours. Back should be fine (debut of sub 7lb Serek Midwestern bass).

      I love long gigs like that, every once in a while at least :D Certainly couldn't do it week in week out!

  8. Mid life crisis in reverse. Have serious GAS for 2-ohm capable amp and more One10s, just because... But my middle-aged brain is telling me to be sensible, my current rig is more than enough and sounds great, so my credit cards is breathing a little easier...

    What's wrong with me?

      @ead I am contemplating flogging a One10 and getting a Two10, this making my Three10 rig a little easier to carry. Haven’t decided yet as it depends on various other (non-bass-related) financial things sorting themselves over the coming weeks/months. If I do go down that route rather than a third One10, I’ll let you know :)

      My wife has two horses so can have zero argument about anything I buy 🤣 But I'm the same, amp GAS is a truly debilitating thing :D

  11. Now here's something I never imagined happening... actually considering going back to a 4 as my main gigging weapon. I love my 5s but I just fancy a change.

      I have been almost exclusively picking up my 4s at home for a while now. I reckon if it ever came down to needing to sell stuff the 5s would be the first casualties...

  14. Boss OC-2 value... Any ideas? (Asking for a friend!)

      Cheers @Kev - turns out he doesn't know because the base plate with the serial number has been replaced. It's on Facebook for £100 with offers, I reckon £75 may be more realistic based on these replies :)

  16. So glad I'm back with a Demeter amp again.  Such a wonderfully clear, warm tone.  Impossible to get a bad sound from it.

      Yes I think that's what eventually put me off, I like dirt hahaha ;)

      Oh good work sir. I was eyeing that when it first appeared - glad it's gone to a far better home :)

  21. So I sold an Eden head because 4 amps was a bit overkill. Promptly bought an Ashdown Spyder 550 because I had one too many shandies in Germany. Oops. Looking forward to A/Bing the ABM, Spyder and Little Bastard this weekend. They all share something, either power amp or preamp...
