  1. I have an m80 as well. 

    Solid pedal, great tones. Instant scoop available with the color button on the clean channel, and the drive on the second channel used judiciously can be incredible, but can also be really harsh with the wrong settings. A real marmite tone.

    I'm liking the look and sound of the Laney Digbeth. The reviews and videos I've listened to are all really positive. Cracking price as well for a lot of functionality.

    The Digbeth is great. Super versatile and solid, especially at the price point

  3. The tech 21 Steve Harris sig might be a good call here.

    It's not just for metal tones - It has a Jamerson sound in the manual, and obviously is tweakable from there. 

    There's a built in tuner, and a second channel (although it shares eq with the other, the gain and volume are adjustable)

    Jamerson tone at around 4:50

  4. It's places like reverb that cause this

    One person (like our German friend with guitar bodies) lists an item at x, lots of people see that it's listed at that price and assume that's the value- despite it not selling in some case for months or years.

    Things seem to appear like busses. One comes up for sale, and then all of a sudden there's now 5 - all at similar prices.

    Capitalism I 'spose 

    Fundamentally - as had been said many times over - it's only worth what someone will pay for it

    It was a phenomenal bass; full USA spec, Moser circuit etc... 1984 I think. 

     

    Bought from the old Bass Centre in Wapping. I spent a day there, tried out loads of basses, and came away with the Eagle. £450 at the time I think. 

     

    When I stopped playing in 1996, I stupidly sold it to a guy who played bass for a Metal /Doom kind of band called Cathedral (or something like that..)

     

    He sold it to Oli in 2015, by which time it had a a bad neck break which was very well repaired at the time I think... 

     

    Having said all of that, the Black Eagle I own now I've had since 2004 and have done so many gigs with it and still love it...

     

    So, all's well that ends well, etc, etc.. 😁

     

     

    That would probably be a chap named Leo Smee.

    I used to lust after that bass when I used to go see Cathedral!!

    I have to say that I'd still nab it in a heartbeat lol
