Graphite is slippery. Good for if you have a detuner. Don't those basses have a switchy nut or something?

Playing in the Croft front room on the 20th, everyone is borrowing my cab, so you'll get a range of amps going in. My set won't help you much cause I'm using a guitar rig at the same time. It is the Super 15, which is a double Compact basically.

Jolana getting sensible in price: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Jolana-D-bass-1986-neckthrough-E-bass-/150674006892?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item2314dee36c

Bah, I'd have paid up to about £35 for that.

Why bother with basic sanding, or a finish, or high grade woods? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GIBSON-BFG-Bass-Worn-Ebony-/200660873242?pt=Guitar&hash=item2eb851f01a Seem to have stuck to their own pricing though.

[quote name='Dubs' timestamp='1318092605' post='1398060']Ha that looks crazy. Never seen it before. Really liked the sound of the GK Henry The 8x8 though. What's the idea behind this?[/quote] Isn't that SWR?

95% sure the point of the multiway BF cabs is they are true to the input, thus sound the same as DIing to a decent PA.

Good parts, bad install.

Tasty upgrades on the bass side too.

Eltham Jones at Edge covers Cardiff in his rounds: http://www.edgeguitarservices.co.uk/ He has some grumpy old man going, but he takes teching seriously. He has a quote from Si OldGit on his site, and was recommended by him.

The point of plywood is that it renders an inconsistent material consistent. You can take wood with all its flaws and inconsistency, and laminate it to provide some consistency in the end product.

If its easy to make it to Bristol I'd be interested, might end up on the Gryphon wall if I can't make something interesting of it.

Whereabouts are you? Few people might be about that can look at it today. In fact, I'll pm my number as I'm off out in a sec, but I could take a look if you are in bristol this eve.

OK, so two of them are signed up but barely post (Bunjy and ChiSeerkind), but on average we have a lot of posts. They are doing their thing, and since its the debut of the band, I'm not fully sure what that thing is, but likely to be heavy. I'm doing what is in theory a solo bass and amps and effects noise thing, but likely to have a vocalist along and make things a bit interesting as well as deafening.

[quote name='Soloshchenko' timestamp='1317466791' post='1390957']Where is Jon Bassassin?[/quote] Clearly not somewhere that allowed him to buy this first.

I can finally admit I have enough of these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Soundcity-120-Mark-4-Custom-Built-Amp-Speakers-/160659518067?pt=UK_ConElec_SpeakersPASystems_RL&hash=item25680db273 [I have another SC150 arriving in the next hour or so]
