    My heaviest Mustang (a JMJ) is 3.8kg, lightest (a CIJ) is 3.5kg. But as @ezbass said the balance is better, probably due to the weight distribution so I just find short scale basses better on the back/shoulder over long rehearsals. I liked your video @greghagger, showed that sound wise not that much difference to a Precision (so not that much difference to a Jazz neck pick up either).

    I did wonder….

    It is indeed madness @Clarky, can’t believe someone hasn’t snapped this up

    I recall being at one of the SE Bass Bashes and someone had a Hartke stack of amp with 210 & 410 cabs, had an amazing sound.

    Sir Horaces bass was nicely present in the mix I thought. He has to be one of the most underrated players imo - aside from amongst us on here of course.

    Make it clear at any auditions that what is heard is what is going to be played and that if that’s not suitable for them then thanks for their time but no thanks. Sometimes the direct approach might seem to take longer to find someone but it’s usually quicker than having 2 or 3 unsuitable people in post trying to make changes and getting on everyone’s nerves.

    I`ve always figured that as long as the conflict doesn`t actively involve me then let others get on with it.

    With an Eastenders style duff-duff at the end?

    Looks alarming, likewise Basschat is very important to me, hope we`re not affected by this

    Thanks, really appreciate the thought and yes agree, a swap shop of sorts would be a great idea, I’ve a tub full of picks I won’t use.

    I`m even more confused than that, if it`s cold it`s centigrade, if it`s hot it`s fahrenheit.

    I think I`d be selling a kidney......

    I`ve some Dunlop Tortex Triangle 0.60s on the way, down from the thicker gauges I`ve used in the past. My Mustang basses have less mids than my Precisions so lighter picks work nicely at getting some mids back. Having developed arthritis in my left thumb I`m trying to look after my hands a bit more now, play lighter & let the amp do the heavy work.

    In your position @thisisswanbon I would have 2 pedalboards fully stocked/ready to go. I know this is fund dependent but I also know me and I couldn’t be bothered swapping pedals from one board to another depending on what the gig was.

    Must have been a proud moment @Leonard Smalls 🤣

    So far from being imperialistic we`re actually just incredibly confused 🤣
  18. Lozz196
    I don`t think I`m stuck in the past or craving an empire so much as I simply can`t relate to weight of people in kilos. Height in metres and distance in metres or kilometres no problem, but tell me someone weighs 93kg or 68kg and it just doesn`t tell me anything whereas tell me 15 stone or 10 stone 4lbs I then get an idea of their size/shape. This also applies to just saying their weight in ponds as they do in the US - tell me someone weighs 163lbs and until I`ve done the math so to speak into stones again it doesn`t hold any relevance. I should however add that weight of basses in kilos I have no problem with, so clearly have my priorities right.

    I’ve always had good results when pairing a 210 with a 115, but I’ve then never been able to get that sound if only using one of the cabs, irrespective of which, each bring something different to the overall sound. As well as the cab sim aspect two of the same just means same eq with one or both cabs so less messing about. The ABM Pro Neo range are lighter & smaller than the regular ABMs, my 210s are 13kg each, they aren’t as full sounding as the regular ABMs but do have the same sound characteristics.

    That’s serious money, good score there Daryl
  21. Lozz196
    I think I’d be looking at a 212 or 410 given the mention of the heavy handed drummer (and possibility of no DI), more speakers hopefully equating to a greater depth of sound. If budget not high then Ashdown ABM410s are easy enough to come by for reasonable prices, not too heavy, and put some castors on and aside from up stairs a doddle to move around. With a greater budget I’d probably go Barefaced 212.
  22. Lozz196
    I now live in dread of our drummer finding out about these @Dad3353, it takes him about 3 days to set up/break down as it is...........
  23. Lozz196
    Firstly congrats on the sponsorships/endorsements @Ander87that’s great. Amp wise I think I’d be looking at the RM500 v3, as the DI has cab emulation. From there I’d just look at 2 of the same cab as the emulation covers either 10” or 15” speakers, but not a combination of both, so choose your fave then your on-stage sound gets to FOH pretty accurately. Re the cabs I’d look at their ABM PRO NEO cabs, better sound imo but also metal grills so more hard wearing for life on the road.
  24. Lozz196
    I’d echo the sentiments above, great forum which I’m proud to be a member of.

    Think every time I`ve seen their concerts on TV he`s played a Precision, strange how things work out isn`t it?
