I think the MB cabs mentioned above are different sizes. If so, it's comparing apples with peanuts.

I was one of 2 guitars in an aspiring band of teenaged mates. One time, at what passed for a rehearsal, the bassist got the hump and stormed off. I picked up his bass, and we carried on. The next weekend I bought a Westone Thunder, which I played through my WEM combo until I nabbed myself an Acoustic head/cab from the local classifieds. Happy days...

.

I tried patches too. Went 'cold turkey' in the end though. Haven't slapped now since...since...since I realised I'm stinky poo at it...!

I reckon they'll need boiling for a looong time. I was thinking about it myself, but found a shop that had potatoes...

That'll do me.

The original 1x15 Compacts, I reckon.

Yup, I use those too. An added bonus...we, erm..., use them at work...

I've had a couple of HA heads (still got one) with no issues, and my main amp for several trouble-free years now has been a LH500. Cracking amp.

A previous band, the only way we could contact the drummer was to leave a message with his mum! I didn't last...

Then you don't want a 3.5mm jack... Me? I'd cut the power lead and rejoin it with the conductors reversed. Twist & solder the conductors, and tidy it all up with heatshrink sleeving.

Something like this ?

^^this. I've used a LH500 for several years now. It's been utterly reliable, and sounds fantastic.

Long time user of Dr Ducks Axwax, but I've just been given some Dunlop 65 stuff so I'll be giving that a go...

If you're not motivated to play, why force yourself? I like playing bass n stuff. But I like doing other things as well.

This is exactly what's just happened to mine

Or 2 sockets on one of the cabs.

If you're missing a trick, I am too! Not for IEM's, but I've tried all manner of ear buds with my mp3 player, and just can't get on with them, for exactly the same reasons.

Same here.

Are those recommendations for full frame? Cos 24/28/35 isn't really "wide" on APS-C. For me, something like a 16-50 would be a better fit.

Not really, but if I'm signing up for something and agree to accept any terms that apply, I think it makes sense to find out what those terms are.

Because that's what you told them? From their Terms & Conditions of Sale: ---x--- 1.5 RS is a business-to-business supplier. The RS website is intended for use by business customers and not by private individuals acting as consumers (“Consumers”). ---x---
