  1. I've just renewed ours with a new one, been with ampband for a few years but insure4music are cheaper.
  2. They should have called it a Silhouette bass really as it looks just like the silhouette guitar.
  3. I'm hoping he's going to get a tobacco burst Stingray with a white pickguard just for another one bites the dust, be rude not to add it into the set?
  4. I can't see how anything is easier to set up than a pair of RCF tops!
  5. I'm not sure tbh, they are closer to each other than the 725 are to the 735 by a long way though AFAIK.
  6. We've used them for large function rooms /social clubs and wedding marquees, a piece of advice a mate gave me was that for weddings and functions you only need the dance floor area at full volume, great auntie Ethel sat at the back isn't that bothered about heft! Obviously a gig watching your favourite band that you've paid £100 to see you want to hear just as well anywhere in the venue. All that said I'd happily put my 735s against your alto sub and any 12s as tops, take into account you could use your sub with the RCF tops and you'll have a killer pa with only three boxes.
  7. For something like a marquee or large pub you'd still need a sub if you're putting the whole band through them. The 735 and 745 are a different animal really.
  8. I did mine in 2012, I've got about 75% movement in all directions left.
  9. I've never heard of three weeks in plaster, could it be that it's a small fracture and they want to let it fuse but not cast it for so long that causes more ceasing of the joint than needed?
  10. Depending on the break he'll be doing well to gig this summer Imo, mine has never been right since
  11. It's very hard to judge Imo, the comparison with old cars is the closest we've got to compare with in cultural and time scale, the same thing was said thirty years ago about really old stuff 'veteran' as it's now called, people thought once no one had living memory of those cars the value would drop quickly over a ten to twenty year period, who thought the guy with the Sierra with a body kit and massive turbo during the 90s would be into cars from the Edwardian period within a couple of decades? But it happened, prices have gone mental. Look at antiques that don't do anything useful like paintings or items rarely used like ink Wells and hat pins, plenty of people still collect them just to have on show, which for many 70's Fenders is about all they are good for anyway, lol.
  12. Them Greenboy cabs sound epic and can go as loud as feck, we had some at the double bass bash, sheesh!
  13. I went to the music man factory last year, I think as I was many people would be surprised how small the factory is, OK they aren't built by one person in a shed but they aren't spitting them out like the Cort factory.
  14. Now I'm very Liberal but honestly the idea of you three in one band is a step too far, not because of the trans thing, I just don't fancy a band with three bass players!
  15. Now come on Bob you can't leave it like that without telling us what the box of chocolate question was!?
  16. I'd imagine they cost even more than £1700 now as no one appears to be taking any notice of the date! Lol
  17. I've seen it live on stage twice and both amateur productions were better than the Cruise version!
  18. Two lumps of wood, a pickup, bbot and some tuners, just like like any other P bass to me.
  19. For items where viewing is essential there's a classified add option.
