  1. Yes I read that. I can only think it's coming from the sub harmonics. I'm pretty sure I'm not experiencing anything like that. I'll check through headphones later just to be sure.
  2. I posted this photo on the other thread but I'll repeat it here. RM800 EVO II. Something I have noticed with this amp (apart from the notched volume control which I really don't like but I know Mr @Merton does) is that because it is so light and the rubber feet are quite hard, it vibrates itself off the top of the cab. I have to put something on top to hold it down, or leave it in the bag. I'm sure the slippy BF cab surface doesn't help either. The Shape button setting is also different to my ABM600 and my Studio 10 practice amp. On these two, Shape is flat when the button is IN. on the RM, Shape is flat when the button is OUT.
  3. These things often get 'found' a while after the event when Managing Directors or CEOs get involved. Worth continued escalation IMHO. It may not be theft, but just plain incompetent service.
  4. I had two of the four string versions. The build quality was excellent and the neck was superb, albeit too narrow for my liking. I installed a John East DJ Retro preamp which was a great addition. The paint finishes are very deep too. I had a white pearl and a sky blue one which were lovely.
  5. Ordered tons of stuff from GAK and never had a problem. Returning stuff has also been fine and they also collected, repaired and returned a bass to me inside 10 days. I never pay via PayPal. The only music shop I’ve ever had problems with is Gear 4 Music. Twice. You win some you lose some eh?
  6. In the front pocket I can fit a power lead, speakon cable and instrument lead and that's about it. I guess you could squeeze a lead or two inside the amp compartment itself I guess.
  7. From our friends at Ashdown HQ. Once I bought that, I though I really should buy an amp to go in it, else it would look silly, so they got me on that too. That was an expensive trip, seeing as Guy was servicing my ABM600 for free.......
  8. Mine didn't. I did buy the little fleece lined bag for it that opens at both ends for access, so I don't take it out of that now.
  9. PMT had these at £479 yesterday! Today the price has gone up!!
  10. Yep, I've had one for quite a while now. Sold my Darkglass M900 as a result and am now using it more than my other favourite, the ABM600 EVO IV...
  11. Use the DI out from the amp in to the XLR in on the H4n and you'll record your bass absolutely fine.
  12. Ashdown Tonepocket is my current favourite.
  13. Can you source me a match for Candy Apple Red?
  14. I have the THR10 rather than this model and it works very well on bass as a practice tool. I got it mainly for guitar too but the bass sound is actually very good.
  15. Incredibly good I agree. With both those in your stable what more do you want? One niggly point is the notched volume pot but I’m sure if I asked nicely and brought donuts they’d swap that out.
  16. Had a Darkglass M900 v2 that was feature packed but I just couldn't get it to work for me. Bought a RM800 EVO II as a backup to my ABM600 and am using it all the time, it is such a great amp
  17. Brilliant amps these. Maybe if you modified the thread title to be what the amp actually is you might get more interest? Maybe ABM 600 RC EVO IV.........?
  18. Hi, I just measured it. At the bridge, string centre to string centre is 18mm. The low B, in my opinion, is very well defined and is better than a 5 String Stingray and Sterling that I used to own. Not sure what else I can say about it; I'm sure it depends on the strings that are fitted to it too.
  19. Maybe advertise that the successful applicant will be the one that has the overall best fit with the current band, be descriptive about the current band and leave it at that, see who applies. If you want to then apply additional criteria once you've got your shortlist then you can do. As an aside, it gets my goat any band that advertises themselves or is promoted as 'female fronted'....
  20. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fender-USA-Vintage-1970s-Precision-Bass-Guitar-Case/264824147255 Doesn't look like any of my 70s cases. Interior looks wrong, plastic handle. Logo would equate to late 70s I think....
  21. I live near J15. Saturdays are absolutely fine in the main. There are smart motorway works between J13 MK south and J16 Northampton North/Daventry with lots of average speed cameras.
  22. Babyshambles gig at Cambridge Junction, January 2006. On stage two hours late, played eight songs. Pete Doherty was in jail two days afterwards.
  23. The filter section on the fly rig are not up to much really so I'd not get it those effects are appealing to you. The chorus is ok but there's no variety and the compressor is passable but not a patch on the TC Spectracomp. The fly rig IS a great idea if you need a basic functioning rig in a box and size and weight are an important consideration and are happy with basic versions of the effects it comes with. You could get a small pedal board with Spectracomp (its tiny) your current tuner, A preamp/DI of your choosing like the VTDI mentioned above and still have space for a chorus pedal?
