  1. Withdrawn. I'm just enjoying the stupid noises too much at home!
  2. That's why I'm liking the whites on mine - very similar to rounds when they've been on the bass a month or 2, but zero finger noise.
  3. Me. I was very happy at the time, but now I wouldn’t go back after getting a Super Twin.
  4. I don't think I could fit 2 in my car!
  5. Yeah - sorry I had clicked the Tweeter option, and I'd have a cover.
  6. Almost everything other than Ibanez are wider than 16.5mm. It is Ibanez that is the outlier really.
  7. But then again it's about £900 so maybe not!
  8. I have a Super Twin but I don't have a 2 ohm capable amp. I'm still tempted to sell my One10 and maybe get one of these instead - just in case I get a new amp! Or for when I just want something smaller.
  9. https://www.instagram.com/p/CmHMQoes9un/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link "Super 3rd on a Super Twin. If you have a Super Twin but you’d like a 1x12XN cab for smaller gigs or a 3x12XN stack for big/outdoor gigs then the new Super 3rd is the answer. It’s basically our awesome Super Compact reshaped for stacking on a Super Twin. Also available with a tweeter (and crossover and full HF control). 600W, 8 ohms, 97dB for the Super 3rd. This full stack is 1800W, 2.7 ohm, 101.5dB (max SPL ~134dB - stand well back and wear hearing protection!) Oh and they’re really light in weight despite the heavyweight tone, remarkably compact and as beautifully finished as everything we make!"
  10. I have 3 of these basses. 2 four strings and a five. The design of the headstock and the spacing from nut to tuner means that on the 4 string bass you can use normal long scale bass strings. The stock ones are D'addario. It's only on the 5 string that a dedicated medium scale B is needed.
  11. I've got the Behringer and I did have a BDDI V1 about a decade ago, so I can't really remember it accurately. The clone sounds great even if it is not accurate. And as the V2 are now nearly £300 it will have to do!
  12. I wish they had included the Behringer tribute to the BDDI in as well. Would have been interesting to hear that.
  13. And vat. And a handling fee.
  14. An excellent cab! Try it portrait and landscape - you'll be surprised how different it sounds. You'll get better horizontal dispersement with the cab being vertical / portrait. Spreads across a stage better.
  15. I think you'll have to email Roland and ask for their proper service and repair centres.
  16. I've got a Rockboard Powerbank XL for that sort of thing. Works well and it can be used while being charged.
  17. Strings Direct is really expensive. I only ever use them if I can't find the strings elsewhere.
  18. I may well swap over to tapewounds and hope for that!
  19. Bass Direct. They might have to order it in, but that's way cheaper than ordering from the USA.
  20. I was aware of nickel allergies in people, but apparently Monel has a far higher content so it can cause symptoms even when normal nickel strings do not. I had a very painful 3 or 4 days when I tried them out. I've put La Bella's on now. They don't sound as nice but they don't hurt either.
  21. bit harsh, and unnecessarily sarcastic. It’s a valid question to ask.
  22. What is nude jazz? I'm wondering if that is what I've been playing in my house for all this time!
