    I love the SH1. I can get any sound I want from it. Lovely old RnB all through to modern metal. If it had a compressor in it (and ideally a 9V battery option) it would be perfection.

    That's a bit crap - especially as you ordered before I did (I only went for the head).

    As expected from UPS my delivery today has been delayed until tomorrow. Ah well, I have too much work to do today anyway!

    I nearly bought a heritage Ampeg when they first came out... 84lb No frakking way.
  5. fretmeister
    Thanks. I'll stick it on the list!
  6. fretmeister
    My word that looks heavy!
  7. fretmeister
    It does appeal I have to say. Do you find the EQ a bit limiting?
  8. fretmeister
    He uses so much compression he wouldn't notice.

    This is amazing https://music.apple.com/us/album/bach-unaccompanied-cello-suites-performed-on-double-bass/468820668

    Seem to be significantly over my £1000 limit, alas.

    If it's got a volume control then there is no such thing as too big.

    I'd like that Aguilar as well! But it's too heavy for me.

    I had an Ashdown MAG400H about 20 years ago when the MAG were still built in the UK and it was very good. I used it with a Marshall VBC412. These days it would go with a Barefaced Supertwin. I tend to like a beefy clean sound maybe with a tiny tiny bit of grit to enhance harmonic content rather than any actual amp drive.

    I've had Class D amps since they've been available - back to the MB F1 I think. But I'm about to sell a couple of basses and I'm thinking of an old fashioned hefty amp Obvious choice is an Ashdown ABM600 evo-4, but what else is good these days? No more than a grand though. I'll get in trouble! ta.

    I ordered the PJ set. It did need a little routing - it was just a bit too tight to get it in.

    Carrier. I got an email from UPS and used their payment system. They also have 'pay the driver' available in some areas. It was a little more than expected - I accounted for VAT and the courier admin charge but had forgotten about import tax as well. Total paid about £214. Still a massive bargain.

    Paid my vat / import / handling and it should be delivered on Thursday. That's far faster than I was expecting. I was thinking about selling my Darkglass head as I almost always use my Mark Bass, but now I can have a 3 way shoot out.

    IIRC at the moment I have TI Flats (P bass); EB Group 4 flats (Sandberg); Dunlop flats (5 string Ibanez Mezzo); D'Addario Nickels (the rest). So that list is completely wrong!
  19. fretmeister
    Ooo I have a dispatch email! Probably take 2 weeks to actually get here these days!
  20. fretmeister
    You can custom order any Sandberg with a 32 scale. Same cost as opting for 35 on a bass that would normally be 34.
  21. fretmeister
    It’s becoming my favourite bass!
  22. fretmeister
    Aargh. I need to sell before I can buy.
  23. fretmeister
    I hated the RH750. I wouldn't buy another for £25.
  24. fretmeister
    Thomann.
  25. fretmeister
    Definitely! I've ordered the head - £159 + vat! Madness. Andertons still showing them at £699. And I've just seen they've sold out. I do have an order number so I hope I got one.
