[quote name='alexclaber' post='1067687' date='Dec 23 2010, 12:24 PM']Super Fifteen - full-range 2x15" (two Compacts in one box)[/quote] How different from the Vintage is this, just out of curiosity? (No, I am not going to buy one, my next purchase is a Big Twin!!)

What if the best bass player to suit your band is 28 or 29, or even female? Will you turn him or her down? Just askin'

I'd get [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=113978"]this[/url]

[quote name='JTUK' post='1054020' date='Dec 10 2010, 01:52 PM']In terms of construction and components used, early SWR and Eden were very well made and specced.[/quote] Definitely. They'd both be near or top of my list

[quote name='JTUK' post='1053726' date='Dec 10 2010, 09:17 AM']I would suggest that early U.S made SWR and Eden amps are by far the best quality out of your list..but not sonically what you are after..possibly[/quote] I can make my Eden WT550 sound like a Trace 12-band head.... Maybe it's just the way I play

The bigger brother of SS's rig - WT550 into a Vintage. Oooh yeah

Eden WT550 - best amp I have ever owned. Love it. My experiences with it echo Shergold Snickers The Nemesis range (well, the old blue one) was really god too. I won't comment on anything since 2007 though

[quote name='pete.young' post='1034517' date='Nov 23 2010, 10:17 PM']Well, we gave Merton's a good work out at last year's SE Bass Bash with my Burman Pro 4000 and it sounded very loud to me, and I'm going deaf![/quote] That was an amazing sound. I currently run an Eden WT-550 through my Vintage, and though I suspect that ain't what you're after it offers a very versatile rig indeed and can do everyhting I need in my function band from 60's wool to modern hi-fi via 70s and 80s rock grind

[quote name='Deadlight Guitars' post='1023031' date='Nov 14 2010, 12:16 AM']Hi, I'm a Luthier from Wallington in Surrey, I've been customising and building guitars and basses for approximately 10 years or so and am still learning every day, I am passionate about guitars and have some cool projects on the go that I'd like to share with real players who really care! I'm not looking for praise or critism but if anything am after constructive and honest opinions , some of my projects push the boundarys on what is classed as acceptable/beautiful or even ugly! so an honest view from real bass players who really have a passion for the bass guitar would be greatly appreciated. I'm new to forums so If I ever cross the line or get it wrong then please feel free to just let me know, I'm only human and I've heard through clients of mine that some forums have very strict rules to follow, so I thank you in advance. Thanks for reading this and feel free to drop a message to me I love to talk about guitars and the missus is bored sensless with me waffleing on about guitars and wood..ha ha. Regards Rob.[/quote] Hey Rob, weird coincidence here, a friend of mine just recommended you via a friend of his (sam from tilt at windmills i think?). Might be in touch soon with a respray request

Gutted to be doing this but need to pull out, more important stuff I need to do at home if I want to have a family left by the end of the year. I'll get the chorus pedal to Nik beforehand so it can still get into the raffle

The amp will be 4 ohm min load, so 8ohms load from the cab will be fine. Not sure if there's a high pass filter in there, if there is get rid of it, if not then the speakers are fooked

Bought Si's EBS Unichorus, was a pleasure and dead easy transaction, many thaks

I'd like to add something little to the raffle - a Behringer Bass Chorus pedal. Got an EBS Unichorus on the way so it's surplus, been used but for the price of a ticket is fair game

Sort of one: Eden WT550 into Barefaced Vintage, or my home-built 1x15 cab I also have a Trace Commando combo but a mate has had it for the last two years and will do for the foreseeable...

Just do what I do - buy before you sell

My little boy was bopping away to it, loved it! The missus piped up that the slap bass "doesn't look hard at all". It's not for most people, but for my cack handed skill it is
