  1. Yes I’ve used them for years, with pretty high tension (Rotosound & Warwick) steel rounds with no problems.
  2. I’d say let’s wait so we get the whole package, so to speak
  3. And probably very irritating that it goes on much longer than expected
  4. I’ve put them on all my US Fenders, really help that sometimes pesky A string rattle. I also put it on the low B on a 5 string Precision and it tightened both the string and sound as a result. As it happens @lidl e I still have one up for sale at £15 inc postage in UK, message me if interested.
  5. Yup, this eve at rehearsal I used a Hiwatt amp into a Peavey 410, couldn’t get any kind of sound I liked but it just sounded excellent in the mix. There’s no way I could put up with that sound at home though.
  6. 76 to 86, covers punk, new wave, the early 80s pop which I hated at the time but love now, and early glam/hair-metal. Edit - how did I forget to add 2-Tone into this?
  7. Me neither, especially combined with the at times over enthusiastic audiences landing all over the stage.
  8. Saw a mates band there in that really hot summer of 2003, it was like a sauna in there.
  9. Plus they sound good.
  10. Sounds like an idea, use the ABM & 212 for smaller gigs, TH & both cabs for bigger gigs.
  11. I keep thinking about one of these, I really like the SCR-DI so if this sounds better….
  12. When I was briefly playing guitar I used a BluGuitar Amp1 - size & weight of a lap-top, sounded just like a Marshall JCM900. Not cheap (£600+ second hand) but worth every penny imo. And a good advantage is that it can be connected straight to FOH without a speaker so monitors can do on-stage sound.
  13. Out of all the flats I’ve tried Rotos are fairly high on the tension
  14. Def, it was the wrong crowd for them but that doesn`t make it the crowds fault, go on, play your best and win over some of them.

    Same for me Mick, my Mustangs have given me the opportunity to keep playing with bands, I think I’d have had to stop otherwise, though would still have played at home.

    Nice one Dave, hope it’s the solution for you.
  17. I call my fave 2015 Fender US Standard Precision Old Friend, seems fitting as we’ve done so much together which has all been good.
  18. I do but the bass hangs in the way, plus the back pocket easier to get in/out quickly. I do always carry my picks in said pick pocket when not gigging tho.
  19. Oh dear oh dear oh dear, maybe they weren’t the right band for the event.
  20. Well I’m quite fortunate in having found two already. If my back weren’t in such a state it would be my 2015 Fender US Standard Precision. However my back is in a state so it’s my Fender JMJ Mustang.
  21. I always keep my spare picks in my back pocket when gigging. Nice & easy to get to.
  22. I have a couple of times but still not enough top end. I wonder if my top end hearing is a bit iffy as even with steel rounds I boost highs & hi-mids a fair bit.
  23. Nope, despite many tries over the years flats aren’t for me. I get the initial “oh these feel nice I might keep them” but always end up with the same conclusion, not enough high end for me so off they come.
  24. And we still don’t know what it is yet.
  25. It`s kind of a Sparctacus thing isn`t it, we`re all right, because we all make the right choices for ourselves - and these may vary from situation to situation as well as from bassist to bassist.
