  1. I'll weigh in with the fantastic Fontaines DC:
  2. Agreed. There's a difference in x-over frequency too between the *35 and *45 speakers. The latter sends a lot more to the horn which makes the woofer more efficient for bass and kick drum (although I would still always hi-pass both)
  3. Is the sound there when the bass isn't plugged in - i.e. can it be heard acoustically?
  4. I went from DR Lo Rider nickels to NYXLs as my round of choice. They sound great! I use them on both P and J Fenders.
  5. Anything by Black Sabbath or Ghost 🤘
  6. I use a pair of RCF 745A as our band PA - I generally high pass the bass and drums a bit, but no issues handling a full band including mic'd kit and two mic'd guitar amps for small to medium bar gigs (100 - 200 people)
  7. The bridge on the Elites is also superior, offering 3/4 slots per string to get the alignment over the pickups correct. The Ultra has that new big block Fender bridge which doesn't have the same option.
  8. They were replaced with the inferior (IMO) Ultra series.
  9. La Bella Deep Talkin 45-105 are definitely a higher tension than equivalent gauge rounds - not by much, but it's noticeable. Not every manufacturer releases tension measurements either. There's a bit of trial and error involved I find.
  10. https://reverb.com/uk/item/59888133-fender-precision-bass-rare-slab-body-john-entwistle-1966-white Oh my gilly goodness. That is all
  11. https://reverb.com/uk/item/59888133-fender-precision-bass-rare-slab-body-john-entwistle-1966-white Wow. Wow. Wow.
  12. I use both the Beta 58A and the E945 live (both with minimal processing) and for vocals in my higher register, I think the E945 sounds better.
  13. A wonderful speaker. My band uses two of these as our PA (MK4s). Highly recommended!
  14. Welcome to the forum! Particularly interested to hear about new HX Stomp/Helix type things!
  15. His lines are virtually always pre-recorded, produced and then effectively mimed for visual purposes. It does slightly undermine his ability but as a content creator he is great!
  16. Cracking band, love the post-Gabriel era! Invisible Touch and Duke are my go-to's.
  17. Very envious of you hearing Joni for the first time. Her work is flawless. While my favourite period is definitely the 70s - from Ladies to Hejira - she also has some amazing stuff from the late 80s and 90s (Taming the Tiger etc) Enjoy!
  18. This is the setup I use in my pub band for monitoring and I recommend it highly. I also use backline.
  19. If you can transport subs, then I would always have them for a full band setup. My current PA is a pair of RCF 745s - active 2 way 15" full range - fed by an Allen and Heath QU SB. We put kick and bass through it but only very mild amounts and it works great, but can foresee limitations in larger venues.
  20. I'd love to try a Quad Cortex but I'd miss the Zeroamp/Sansamp patch big time. I found my sound immediately with that!
  21. 3. Bluetooth functionality to create/edit patches using an app on your phone 4. Balanced XLR out
