Multi band compressor and EQ would sort it.

Take spares for everything Tape down cables so you don't trip Write your set list in black on white paper. Don't add notes in red - that will disappear under stage lights Rehearse as if you were on stage. Same space & shape.

Down to 8 basses now. And a baritone, and 2 electric guitars and 1 classical.

Line 6 Sonic Port Plugs into your iOS device. I comes with the Mobile POD software but is also compatible with Amplitude (Free) - and then you can get an excellent Ampeg B15 sound. Amplitude will grab tunes from your iTunes library so you can play along I use mine all the time - great bit of kit

Jimmy bought my Fishman Platinum Pro-EQ bass preamp. Great comms, paid fast and let me know it arrived ok. All good!

Lots to investigate!

[quote name='cybertect' timestamp='1444127456' post='2880447'] 80 lb (36.2 Kg) apparently, according to the OP on TB. [/quote] That's impressive. I used to run a pair of Marshall VBC412 cabs - they were 110 lb each. Never again!

Quarter Pounders for me. Nice and chunky.

I was thinking of a tuner, compressor, envelope filter and drive - all on a Pedal Train Nano. Are there any Multi FX that are smaller?

I think I'm going to put together a mini board to try and get the whole thing as light as possible. Obviously I'll need to buy some small pedals. Oh well!

Take off 1 tuner (including the bushing) and weigh it. Then you can compare with the Hipshot weights. Ibby tuners are quite light anyway, they may not be light enough to make a difference you want to pay for. On a trad bass with big plate tuners swapping to Ultralites can save half a pound on a 5 string!

Got any pics?

I can play DB a little bit - but I'd never get one in the house or the car (at least not with the kids in it as well). I'll have to start seeing what I can offload.

I don't have to think if I get a piano score. Pesky pianos go to deep for a 4.

Talk me out of getting into serious marital trouble... I have severe gas for an MB2. DB sound, 6.5 lb... Surely there is something negative about them? Please!!!!!!

If I swap basses I hear the clear difference immediately. If I swap cables I don't hear a difference. A Precision will sound like a precision through any amp or cable. The very best a passive cable can do is to let the signal through as cleanly as possible. It cannot improve the signal. To claim otherwise is audiotardery. Changing from rounds to flats causes a far bigger change than cables!

Finally used mine in anger with a Puma 300 head and a Marleaux Consat Custom 5. Orchestra rehearsal this morning. Tunes included Pink Panther, Peter Gunn Theme, How deep is your love, Batman theme etc The little cab didn't miss a beat. Sounded clear and powerful, and the low B was stunning. Very very pleased!

[quote name='SolomonHelsing' timestamp='1443873865' post='2878352'] I guess Drunk Rugby Fans = Profit and that's all that landlady cares about, instead of credibility with bookings etc [/quote] Considering the crap income levels of most pubs these days if they didn't care about profit then they won't be there much longer anyway. Did you have a contract that allows you to get part payment in the event of a late cancellation?

A great sound at 7.5lb is certainly making me think about getting out my wallet.

[quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1443646067' post='2876646'] Hello! They're Precision flats. [/quote] Thank you. I fancy trying some.

WOT, which flats are they please? I see GHS have different types. Sounds lovely.
