  1. I have one for home practice. I used it last week at a jam night with my GK MB200 head and the rig performed admirably. For the money you really can't go wrong in my opinion
  2. Don't pick it up by the top handle then I used to pick mine up with one of the side handles, never got hit in the shins. The top handle is there for wheeling it around, not lifting it.
  3. What sort of EQ do you use - if you're heavy in the bass side you'll eat up the amp's power. Knock them back, turn off the sun harmonics and use the mids to give yourself the kick
  4. You lugger b*gger. I was on the site at 9am and it told me they had sold out. Every gig. Pissed off.
  5. Yeah sadly the S12 is narrower than the Super Compacts. On two SCs the CTM looks (and sounds) the dogs dangly bits
  6. Ashdown CTM100 gets my vote. It's a bit wider than the S12 though
  7. Sounds like it's around 15 years old - the AH300-7 moniker came about in around 1998 and lasted til about 2002 IIRC
  8. That said Evenote isn't as intelligent as you require!
  9. We've just started using Evenote. Free app on all mobile phones and you can access on PCs as well. It seems to work quite well and I can keep track of who owes me for our lockup each month
  10. Lovely bass! Always been a fan of this shape ever since I saw photos of Phil Collen playing a Destroyer guitar on the Pyromania tour. He's now got a Jackson Destroyer which looks equally ace. The other pointy bass I'd like is the Hamer Scarab. Enjoy
  11. Anything on Def Leppard's biggest selling albums. On the less well known stuff Rick savage does get more space to play around, but all their big selling songs have 8th root notes going through them
  12. Fantastic to see another manufacturer/designer pop up on here. Very much looking forward to seeing the new stuff Paul - maybe some new valve stuff like your V4/V8...?
  13. Agreed Mike is a star and I know only too well the pain you feel dude
  14. Very impressed with your patience on this! It's going to look great to boot
  15. Lovely!
  16. These are excellent little cabs, GLWTS
  17. Greg is a good friend of mine, buy with confidence

    Absolutely cracking bass, absolutely cracking chap, absolutely cracking price! If it was a 5 I've no doubt I'd be having trouble with the bank manager about now
  19. New T-Rex board courtesy of TPJ - not as jam packed as some on here and you could say plenty of space for expansion [IMG]http://merton.bitd.co.uk/basses/pedalboard2014.jpg[/IMG] Signal from wireless goes into an SFX Micro Thumpinator, then into an EHX Switchblade - this is wired backwards as I occasionally find myself gigging without the wireless so it just means I plug straight into this and switch rather than unplugging leads. Also allows a swifter changeover if the batteries die in the wireless mid gig. It's never happened because I'm anal about changing them but you never know … After the EHX we go into the tuner, octave, Prunes and Custard, chorus and then SansAmp. These days I find myself DI'ing from the transformer derived DI on my amp but there are occasions when the SansAmp will be needed. The Parallel Out goes to my amp. I like the fact it looks a lot more stupid than it is - in actual fact there are only three fx and one preamp on here so it's all a bit overkill, but it works for me Also the perspective makes it look like the pedals are overhanging the bottom of the board. They're not...
  20. Ah fair enough, the V4 badge is probably an addition after-market, afaik it only came into existence with the 2nd gen V-Type range. As for this particular specimen, I am quite drawn to it but would be too scared to take it out!
  21. The ones with a V4 badge were the next gen, assuming yours has the compressor as well?
  22. Wow that really is pristine! Also like buses, the second one to appear on here in the last fortnight..! Good luck with the sale, always wanted one of these but have a sensible head on my shoulders now and don't need the power or weight Still amazed at the condition of this baby
  23. All Super 12s are 4 ohms
