"And if i see any of you lot from basschat on here, I'll be right round your house" Brilliant!

Evening gents! I have a late 90's Trace Elliot gp12 smx (AH600) combo with a single 15 inch driver. Due to the cabs sound (and weight!) limitations I really am now looking at rehousing the head. The amp sounds beautiful but I really want to pair the head with a lightweight neo 4x10 as I think it would really come to life even more. Does anyone know anyone who could build a sleeve to house it in, to a decent standard? or are there any other options rather than trawling the bay for a battered old trace head to scavenge? Many thanks in advance Si.

The Blue Album has got to be one of my top ten albums of all time, everything that came after I found to be very bland. Geek rock by numbers.

Cheers guys, I'll give the dunlop polish a try!

Hi Guys. Trying to clean my 2010 MIM neck (it's getting really grimy now) Never been able to find a definitive answer on this, searched high and low across the t'interweb! Closest I found to an answer was using lighter fluid? maybe i'm being too precious, but to me using something like that on my Jazz Bass neck seems a little risky? Cheers

[size=4]Why didn't they just buy a p/j to begin with? [/size]

So freaking excited!!

Trace Elliot has always been my holy grail of tone. Love my GP12SMX 1x15 combo. Kicks an immense amount of arse! punch and growl in spades and 580w to play with. Sure they are heavy, but thats not a deal breaker to me. I always find it curious that it is said they have been left behind or bettered tonally, a product of the 80's if you will, I'm only 28 and Trace has always been THE tone. Over and above the Ashdowns, Markbass, Ampegs I've played through. Edit - have to add I never use the graphic preset, it sounds awful. Just manual control of the graphic eq.

Amen! I love his playing and the tone he gets from his ATK. Me and my old lady is probably my fave line.

Thread resurrection!

My MIM Jazz (maple board) never goes out of tune, constantly surprises me at the start of every band practice that no adjustment is needed!

Comprehensive rundown there Warwickhunt! Thanks very much!

Evening all, Looking to get my filthy paws on a SS1 very soon, any help on what to look out for (if anything) would be Much appreciated. Differing specs through the years or neck profiles? Any known weak points? Cheers Si.

Every 6-9 months with my Elites.

Thanks very much. Gonna have a playabout tonight. See what sounds I can get. Being a solid state head I presume the head can be run independent of the cab? Many thanks.

Hi guys. Quick question Just starting to home record into an alesis io2. Been getting some nice tones out of my Jazz bass direct. now thinking of using my Ashdown EB180's xlr out and taking advantage of the preamp. Will using the Ashdown colour my sound in any way other than what I choose with eq? Sorry if I make no sense, just new to the whole home recording thing! Thanks!

Cheers Chris for the Sandberg! Bass is better than he gave credit for, thoroughly decent guy to deal with, good communication at all times. Good stuff!

Don't dismiss the current MIM's.Quality is probably the best its ever been. My 2011 Jazz (candy Apple red and maple) is built and finished to a very high standard and features the 09-12 series pickups. Which are very very good, very hot and snappy. Funk machine!

I have one of the very first Rockbass Streamer Standards, single p/u in 5 string config. I use it as a backup, Great bass quality and playability wise, have to agree though, the mec pickup is extremely weak output-wise. Often thought about modding it too.

[size=4]I have owned a 2011 Mex Jazz bass for 6 months now and I have to say, it has really exceeded my expectations. The overall fit and finish is of an extremely high standard from the neck, to the body and components. It also is very lightweight, which suprised the hell out of me. Also the newer 2009 upgrade pickups, imo, have quite a hot sound for passive pickups and it certainly has a good wallop of growl and clarity. I wasn't expecting much to be honest when i ordered it blind from 'guitar guitar', but it really has suprised me quite a bit. The neck even has some nice flaming on the maple too It also sounds more 'jazz' like than the Geddy Lee I once owned curiosly enough.[/size] [size=4]The guitarist in my bands 2010 mexi strat is also finished to a very impressive standard.
