I like a heavy string gauge and play hard so my action is quite (but not too much) high.

Bought this recently, but its not really what I wanted. Cost me £75 but willing to take[s] £50. [/s] [b]£40[/b] Here is all the blurb. [i][font=Trebuchet MS][color=#2e6b31]The high-quality Rockman Bass Ace Headphone Amp features built-in compression, volume control, and auxiliary stereo input/output. You can even route the output to a mixer for recording! The Rockman Bass Ace offers selectable treble/mid boost to add to your sound.

A lot of Fender haters on here, but a simple P bass is all I ever need.

After our final number, our singer introduces the band one by one starting with the drummer who plays a groove followed by me with the bassline, and then the guitarists before launching into our final number. Does anyone else introduce their band members in a quirky way?

Where is our Beatles loving colonial cousin? He never gets tired of telling us how old he is.

I got mine from Wunjos in London. Free strings of my choice, fitted and setup with gigbag for £299. It plays beautifully now.

I,m quite lucky in the fact although I,m 51, I,m not the oldest in my band. Guitar 1 is 53, singer is my age at 51, guitar 2 is 46 and drummer is only 32 bless.

Having been using overdrive for a few months now, I was wondering how subtley people use it. For example, our 2 guitarists both use overdrive so would using it on the bass as well, be too much??

At the end of the day we are entertainers being paid to entertain. I cant stand many of the songs we do but dont keep moaning about them. When I see the crowd all bopping about and singing along, I know we are doing a good job.

What a bizarre thread.

No one at all? It didnt come with a user manual, only a guide to the preset sounds. Managed to download a PDF version online.

I recently got myself one of these after the positive reviews I read. There are a couple of preset effects that I quite like. My question is 'Can I cue a preset to be called up after finishing one song which used another setting?' At my last gig I was frantically pressing the foot switch to get to my next one before the band started the next number.

Towards the end of Two Of Us from The Beatles Let It Be album, John Lennon whistles the same coda that they had already used on Hello Goodbye

Another vote for Warwick. I borrowed a mates Fortress once and hated the neck profile and the tone.

[quote name='4StringFortress' timestamp='1457037877' post='2994762'] Awesome so is the Classic Pro considered the better of the options? Or does it depend onw hat your using it for? Is £350 about the right price to pay for a used one? I can buy a classic pro from GAK for £379. [/quote] I believe this one comes with a fitted case/gigbag. Because of the angular shape, most gigbags wont fit a TBird. You could try to haggle.

The Pro IV has the thru neck and the USA pickups. Nice example of a used one here. [url="http://www.chandlerguitars.co.uk/product_Detail.php?ItemID=5847"]http://www.chandlerguitars.co.uk/product_Detail.php?ItemID=5847[/url] I,m not aware of a 5 string version.

The Beatles - Glass Onion has them referencing their own songs. 'I told you 'bout Strawberry Fields' 'Lady Madonna tryin' to make ends meet' 'I told you 'bout the fool on the hill'

Used it for rehearsal. Really powerful pickup!

That'll put the price of Nate Mendel P basses up!

Very handy if your on a boat and need a paddle!

Well, I picked it up today and am quite impressed. Although its only a backup bass it may get more outings than I intended. The bass is heavier than I remembered, although it is a basswood body. Everything is a lot better than some of the budget basses. Tuners are well made and hold the tuning spot on. Pickups are punchy and the 2 EQ boost/cut controls are acceptable but not up to the original USA Ray. The neck is 38mm at the nut.[attachment=213760:FullSizeRender.jpg]
