Robbo149 Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 (edited) Been on here quite a while, but not posted much! Used to play in a couple of original punk bands back in the 80s, had a long time out, got back into playing maybe 5 or 6 years ago. Been playing with my original metal band for about 3 years now - recently been in the studio recording our first EP 😀. Also recently hooked up with a couple of old mates to play some rock covers, which is proving very enjoyable & something different! Gear - I've been through quite a lot of basses, amps, cabs, pedals etc over the last few years, hunting the perfect sound (I guess most of us have been down that road?!). Anyway, a while back I bought a Darkglass B7k which was a revelation! I've now got hold of a Microtubes 900 head (bought on here), which is absolutely awesome! I pair it with a variety of Hartke Hydrive cabs (always loved them) - either 2 x 210s, a single 410 or a 410/115 for really big noise! I've kept hold of around 7 basses, but tend to favour my Jackson JS2, Ibanez SRX360, Yamaha TRBX504 & of course my Ibanez Destroyyyeeerrrrr! I'm very much a passive bass guy - even my active basses are rewired passive 😀 Looking forward to getting out there gigging again! Cheers!

I miss calling in at The West Riding for a cheeky pint whenever I picked the wife up at the station. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
