WalMan

I have a Super12T and have just swapped my Little Mark Tube for a Streamliner 600 doing the same sort of stuff a you. As a combination it sounds bleedin' marvellous, and IMO better than with the LMT. Demo'd the Streamliner and a Shuttle when I was in the market. The Shuttle needed the tweeter right off. With the Streamliner I have a bit of the tweeter dialled in, more so with the Wal than the L2500's EAD's look interesting, but I have not actually heard one so cannot comment, but for me theS12T works brilliantly with the Streamliner

I think it may even have gone into production. I shall have to ask him when he is back after the holidays

[quote name='Slipperydick' timestamp='1323714959' post='1466197'] I had a bout a couple of years ago, but as it happened I left the band I was with, the enforced rest cured it. but see your GP and make sure thats what it is. Some GPs will offer you an injection that cures it, but I bottled out as I'd heard its painful. [/quote]I have been getting grief in my right elbow - the one I cracked slipping on a wet floor at work cue [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6s994jOFuY&feature=related"]Butterfield DIRECT[/url] methinks. Last time I saw the arthritis specialist he did a cortisone injection which has helped for about 6-9 months and did not hurt at all

You might consider a prepaid $ card like those from [url="http://www.caxtonfxcard.com/"]CaxtonFX[/url] They reckon their rates are competitive and they are also recommended for things like booking budget airline flights as you tend not to get the card charge. Obviously you don't get the "time to pay" that a credit card might give you but I was converted to them when MrsW & I went away for our big birthday/anniversary holiday. For that they are great. Load before you go and you can do it pretty much instantaneously by text too.

[quote name='silddx' timestamp='1323617072' post='1465052'] I think we played a blinder, although I made a couple of silly bum notes through taking the odd risk, like a two and a half octave triplet arpeggio that I hadn't played before but I really felt the need for those notes and an unrestrained compulsion to do it. It sounded good too, apart from hitting the last note flat [/quote] Think it was a similar problem for me Nige. Second night running with the longterm dep and feeling that the first night had been pretty good and fluid for me I got cocky and got lost at the dusty end a couple of times The "bass solo" break I get thrown (and I don't like solos) didn't go quite so well (some semi pentatonic w@nk basically) and the little fill that gets chucked in "Sultans of Swing" I completely missed. DOH!!

[quote name='nemo' timestamp='1323616490' post='1465046'] Thanks, I will try it on Monday. Now trying if any of the basschatters seen them around.. [/quote]Otherwise my L2500's live in a MONO Double bag, which is the dogs danglies - just doesn't have the logo

Have you tried emailing one of the [url="http://www.glguitars.com/distributors/index.asp"]European distributors[/url]

Good night tonight....though I personally felt I played better/more fluidly last night. Mind it's rock covers. What's fluidity got to do with anything? Rig sounding lovely again. Played the Wal most of the night, but changed to the L2500 for the last few numbers. Wal is great and so easy to play, but is a lot bassier than the L2500, which perhaps cuts a bit better for the classic rock stuff. Am slowly being talked into joining yet another band (fourth) how the hell I am going to get themj all in sync I have no idea!!!

Thumbs up for Roqsolid again from me. I picked up a set of Roland PK5 midi pedals a couple of months back but only had the unwieldy cardboard flightcase they came in. Didn't want to go the whole hog of having a flightcase made and was searching around for some sort of soft case to carry them in that might provide some sort of protection. Then I had a DUH moment and thought of Roqsolid, who I have had covers for a number of combos and cabs from over the years. An email query to them got a quick response from Bryn and after a bit of tooing & froing we ended up with this - [url="http://amplifiercoversonline.com/zencart/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=107_90&products_id=2312"]Roland PK-5A Bass Pedals PowerBag[/url] Ended up going for the version with two protection pockets - one got forgotten first time around but that was swiftly fixed FOC - and I remembered when it arrived that I had a couple of nice lumps of foam from the lead case I bought a while back that fit the pockets perfectly

Not too bad. Sort of stand in gig, but it is fairly regular occurrence - another tonight in Littlehampton about half a mile from home so a really easy one that I might try to sort some vids & sound for. The Streamliner was sounding good to me, and I for the second week running I used the Wal all night leaving the L2500 on a stand as spare. Met up with Bassferret as was at the gig and had a long chat about life, the universe & gear. The Christmas season accidents seem to have started. On the way over there wer three way pileups on both sides of the dual carriageway, thankfully the closed side was in the opposite direction to where I was headed and my side was flowing OK. Coming away from the gig there was another bang and police everywhere - still kept them busy on that, not that I care as I am now virtually teetotal and my last drink was a bottle of beer when I got home from last weeks gig.

[quote name='tonyclaret' timestamp='1323195389' post='1460467'] Thanks for all comments. The purchase has been made via our very own walbassist. Can't wait for it to arrive! [/quote]Ah 'twas you in the end was it I was in the queue for a while, then had a rush of blood to the head in Nevada on a Saturday morning I have got away with it so far, but I am sure she won't miss the blue glow instead of yellow legend at Saturdays gig. Enjoy...I know I am

Should be

...and as a follow up after last night first outing with the Streamliner 6.0 & Barefaced S12T.....OH YES!!! Big ear to ear grins here

I have had a Mono double for the L2500's as it makes life easier loading the car and as my gear travels by car not van. Really pleased with it & so far no problems

Forgot to add to my report from last night. The "support" was a a group of Morris Dancers, whose opening number was a version of "[i]Stairway to Heaven[/i]" re worded as "[i]Stairlift to Epsom[/i]" if I heard aright

[quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1322997307' post='1457987'] Sweet Fanny Adams - great rock album. Set Me Free, great rock track. Mick Tucker - one of the best rock drummers ever. [media]http://youtu.be/SW6zZAigmMo[/media] [/quote]Yes indeed. Still give it a blast on occasion, and there were some good B'sides

Prog gig last night @ Weltons Brewery in the brewhouse which was different. Inside but it was open to the elements so the crowd were wrapped up warm but we were fine under thw lights. First night with the GB Streamliner 6.0 and it sounded marvellous A few slip ups but no one died. Most annoying was playing through a new number (Spocks Beard - Day for Night) pretty much perfectly in the sound check - that I wasn't recording or videoing - then having a few issues on the gig, which was a shame. Had some people looking quizikly at the bas pedals as to "what the hell!?" Just the Wal all night because there was not a lot of room but it was all good (after a mad dash round Bognor & Worthing to get some new strings in the morning

Can't help as I'm the wrong end of the country, but [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/129360-gb-streamliner-berg-ae112/page__view__findpost__p__1454115"]THIS[/url] was my view of the two A/B'd through a Barefaced Super12T last Saturday before I left the shop with a new Streamliner 6.0 I don't know that it's better than the Shuttle, but it is a very different beast that I loved through the cab for the styles I cover. The Shuttle was too clinical for me

[quote name='lowdown' timestamp='1322664191' post='1454129'] So you are saying that you play a Synth with your feet ? Garry [/quote]Yes .... well one of these anyway

I picked u a STreamliner 6.0 at the weekend that will be used with my Barefaced Super12T. I went down to Nevada in Portsmouth with the L2500's and S12T cab to try out the Streamliner with the cab, and while there A/B'd it with a Shuttle 6.0. The Shuttle is nice, but for what I want the amp for (classic rock, prog & a bit of poppy country) it was too clinical and bright. The Streamliner was a lot warmer - three valves no doubt. Into the S12T with the Streamliner I was adding in a bit of the horn. With the Shuttle I was turning the horn off completely as it was too bright

Got a Roland PK5 recently and that is presently firing sounds on a Roland D110 rack. All pretty vintage stuff and, unless I was going to take up tap dancing, is just used for low bass notes on hold. I do find that it is safer to play in socks as there is more chance of accuracy. With shoes on - unless they were winkle pickers - I just end up triggering the wrong note. The original intention was to use them to trigger samples in a Sampletank Player on the laptop, but as the PK5 is MIDI with no USB connector I was getting notes sticking & all sorts so that idea had to be shelved sadly as I have LOADS of samples in ST including SampleMoog (so Moog's through the ages)

Right try this for size http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xn9Bo0UbQQM Seemed more appropriate than Yakety Sax
