I'm on the 2 x 1x12's. I would toy with the idea of getting a third but reality reminds me that, if I'm on a gig that needs that much, I'm more likely to just put my cabs on to a flight case.

Genz Benz Streamliner Fault
Gareth Hughes replied to Fretless Fiend's topic in Repairs and Technical
The designer of the Streamliner is a regular here - AgedHorse/Andy. He’s been really helpful to me in the past with any Genz Benz issues/queries. Drop him a line, he’ll be the perfect guy to point you in the right direction. -
The passing of a Basschat legend (sad news inside)
Gareth Hughes replied to ped's topic in General Discussion
My condolences to all who knew him. I didn't know, and might possibly be one of the few who didn't buy or sell anything to him by the sounds of it, but I always remember seeing MB1 on so many posts. It really is like having regulars in the pub, and it's sad to lose one, to not see that face there anymore. RIP MB1. -

A and B I have no experience with, but as for C, a double bass bow will be too heavy for all but the lowest string. (This is going of CGDA tuning). After years of playing double bass, even playing an A string with a cello bow is a delicate process for me - we're just conditioned to be somewhat heavy-handed coming from the bass.

*SOLD* Eastwood Sidejack Bass VI *SOLD*

To put in my tuppence worth - Andy, I am very thankful that you have continually made yourself available on this site to help with any GenzBenz related questions that I've had over the years. You have helped diagnose problems that needed fixed, pointed me in the right direction to get those things fixed and have saved me from making things worse by messing with things I don't really understand. It saddens me that this some on this forum are less appreciative of your efforts. I'm still a proud owner of two Streamliner heads that will have to prised from my cold, dead hands. Thanks Andy.

Ah, might not be a Bart - just remembering that he had modded an old Gibson SG bass with a Bart in that position.

Love it. My eyes thank you.

Loveliness. Did that/does that come with the Bartolini neck pickup installed? How does it sound? Mike Watt has such a righteous tone.

Hey folks - here is my Eastwood Sidejack Bass VI in Olympic White. Bass is about 9 years and been played live once, staying in the studio for the rest of that time. 9.9/10 condition, still has the plastic on the scratchplate. Everything is stock, with the addition of two strap buttons to aid with balance. Also been professional shielded so now hum-free. Comes with a spare set of D'Addario strings. Price is reduced to £400 including shipping to UK. And here's the excellent Ed Friedland with his tuppence worth -

Hey all - up for sale is my Maruzsczyk Elwood Lp fretless 5 in Olympic White. Bass is one year old and (sadly) never played live, and is in brand new condition. It's 34" scale and has an unlined, 24 position ebony fingerboard. The body is light weight chambered alder and has Delano SBC pickups with coil taps and passive v/b/t wiring. Hardware is Maruszczyk's own. Comes with a Maruszczyk deluxe gig bag. The sofa shot was before Adrian added the string retainer. It was €1580 to order before Brexit came into effect, about £1375 - would sell for £999 including shipping. Thanks, Gareth

Disappointed but not surprised that there wasn’t a setup done. The Fender American Standard 5 string I waited several months after expected was a joke when it arrived from a well known shop. Despite a setup being promised because of the delay, the bass arrived with all the neck bolts loose and the neck literally moving several mm away from the body.

Yeah, I’m hoping the graphic interface side of it - actually seeing the pedals/amps be connected - will make it easier for me to understand. As for editing things live - that might be a step too far for me, so I can envisage this being a home studio thing for me. As for VAT - I’m in N.Ireland, so for now nothing has changed in that regard. An order from Thomas recently confirmed that, it’s still EU prices for me. I mean, N.Ireland is self-destructing, but every cloud.... 😜

I’m waiting on the Dwarf - hopefully should have it by the end of May. Give me a few years to get my technophobe head around it and I’ll report back!
