Quite tempted by the 112s, they're a little cheaper than they originally said too.... Damn.

Get an RM800 or a secondhand ABM500 from here. You can't go wrong with either

1000W and only one speakon? D'oh!

Nice! So guess the CTM300 is no longer a pissibolity?

Good work

Bloody hell

Identical to my first bass, except mine is missing the stickers. Mine is ply like Jon says above. Great bass, sounds incredible through a valve amp (though I upgraded to Schaller pickups in the late 1990s...)

Nothing, useless gear. You'll be lucky to get any offers mate. Tell you what, I'll take them off your hands for, hmmm, a tenner?

[quote name='nash' timestamp='1453480879' post='2959930'] Cheers guys. Can't wait to get the 300. I'll be getting their 8x10 soon after. I have seen they do a line of cabs with a long speaker guarantee. [/quote] Their ABM Foundation range has a lifetime guarantee, well worth a look!

[quote name='EliasMooseblaster' timestamp='1453481032' post='2959933'] (Merton, old chap - do you mean to say you've bought another one?) [/quote] Yes I missed it so much I was considering saving some money for Ashdown to make me one and then one appeared in my town for a stupidly low price so I couldn't resist!

I have the 100, it's a brilliant amp. The 300 I can imagine is a beast

We used to use City Link at work and they "delivered" over £10k of equipment to the front garden of a house (not even the correct address, just dumped it). They had a POD, which funnily enough was the driver's name and signature (clearly not a very intelligent dickhead). Eventually after much wrangling City Link 'fessed up and we got some form of compensation.

[quote name='skelf' timestamp='1453398940' post='2959200'] Having built quite a few shortscale basses I don't see any down side to them. The string tension issue is really a non issue now with the improvements in string design I have a custom set made up by Newtone for all the short scales. I went down to 33" scale a while back for the two basses I built for myself which is not really that much of a difference but it does feel better to me. Building shorter than that on a regular basis now and have to say I can only see that continuing. [/quote] I concur Alan's built me a 33" five string and a 32" four string and they are both phenomenal. String tension is just as good as on a 34" scale but the scale length is just that bit better for my smaller frame

I concur with both your posts

Ah now is that a knowing chuckle Dan...

I love the look of this, it's cracking

http://www.edenamps.com/products/tnseries/amps/TN501.html Look to be replacements for the WTX series. My money is on the same Class D modules as we see everywhere else

I think it looks like the sort of head I'd be scared to take on a gig for fear of spoiling its bright whiteness! Interested to hear it though

I am very lucky in that I have three "best" basses so it depends what mood I'm in Edit - I'll clarify that. My ACG Finn 5 is the no 1, the Finn 4 has become no 2 and Status is no 3. My function band tends to have no 1 or 3, Boogie Monsters now has no 2, but Boogie Monsters get more gigs than the function band haha
