Merton

No longer able to bring my rig, sorry for anyone wanting to see the Vintage (....tumbleweed....). The GK MB200 will be there though

Good man See ya next week, can't wait to try your S12

But the amp's 500W, so wouldn't I run the risk of blowing the cab?[/quote] Just be sensible with the volume... If it sounds bad turn down [quote]I had a quick look on GAK, couldn't see any small cabs for sale. Also went on the Bass Centre but they don't seem to be selling amps anymore?[/quote] Bass Centre seems to have gone a bit... odd. For a little uni practice cab I'd be tempted by the Eden ENX110 or 112. Only around £200 new and would do the job without shelling out loads.

The GB amp isn't exactly big, just get a small 1x10 or 1x12 cab to take with you as well as that

Sorry you won't make it but thanks for your very generous donations

Our lovely P: And Max:

Just had a load of pics from a wedding we did in June, I like this one:

Have only read the OP and none of the replies (no time!!) but I agree- give me any bass or amp and I'll sound the same. I have very much enjoyed my journey finding gear nirvana bit I bet if you A/B'd my tone now and 5 years ago there wouldn't be much difference... probably just I now have an amp which gives me that tone with very minimal EQ Oh, btw, my sound is "sh*t bassist" EDIT: as for the theory and practice, I did A Level music, lots of grade exams on bass, trombone, piano, French horn... Would like to think I know some stuff, however I'm well aware of my limitations and have many plans to study and fill those gaps in my knowledge/talent. Time however is very precious with a 2yr old son...

Did a gig earlier this year with a buggered neck - had slept badly I think but had severe shooting pains whenever I so much as moved my head. I was totally useless for load in and out, and just stood at a slightly funny angle all night. It did ease off as the night went on, not sure if that was adrenalin or beer though....

The range is t great but it's enough for me to walk ateast 15-20 foot from the stage.[/quote] Cool, cheers. I want mine for much the same reason you have yours do hopefully I'm onto a winner

Two AKG SR40 systems. Why two? I have no idea what frequency our singer's radio mic is so bought both off Jamesemt for 80 quid. They're fixed frequency hence the caution - I'll sell one once I am confident I have a unit which won't interfere There's a very very slight distortion vs a cable but that may just be a new battery required in the bug, will see. I only noticed this as I had an opportunity to A/B at low volume at home but on a gig it absolutely won't be noticeable.

I joined the club yesterday too

[quote name='bertbass' post='1365735' date='Sep 7 2011, 08:41 PM']In an emergency once I used a graphic eq pedal into a power amp and was very surprized by how good it sounded. I've got a Trace Elliott V type preamp but I don't like the sound of Trace Elliott.[/quote] If you don't like it I'll have it....

[quote name='malcolm.mcintyre' post='1363743' date='Sep 6 2011, 08:25 AM']Running them in series will work with any amp, but be prepared for them to sound significantly quieter than one cab on its own[/quote] why? More air being moved.....

[quote name='paul_5' post='1364603' date='Sep 6 2011, 08:53 PM']Ab - 4th fret 'E' string. Lovely sound. Not G# though, that would just be wrong...[/quote]

Brilliant Lee, that's why everyone raves Keep up the good work!

Feel bad I haven't kept up to speed with Chi Cheng, is he still with us and still battling?

Status necks are not tinny and characterless! Not played a Kingbass tho...

[quote name='wateroftyne' post='1361739' date='Sep 4 2011, 01:23 PM']Hi all! Here's a few clips from a gig I did last night. (snip)[/quote] Sounds great. Damn you P.S. Nice playing too

Here we go, my home practice rig: Yes, that's a little hifi speaker. Sounds ok at home practice volume. Win

Will respond when I can get on my laptop and get screenshots for you
