I always find combos harder to lug around than the two units of cab and head.

[quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1401427327' post='2463463'] Agreed. I wonder how long it will be before Fender realise that they still haven't found what they're looking for. [/quote] like button

music company finds some successful musicians to join board and help them make stuff for musicians. Not the stupidest idea ever. Mind you I imagine if I were thinking of electric guitars, and more the rig and effects and modelling stuff then the Edge wouldn't be the worst guy to have around. Not sure what bono brings to the table though!

1991-3 ish didn't the hard wear go from brass Warwick branded made by Schaller to an alloy not made by Schaller?

[quote name='Cameronj279' timestamp='1401132465' post='2460455'] I agree with this. Warwick stuff is especially bad for this (or good if you're wanting a warwick I suppose). New value of them is huge (to the point where it's a bit ridiculous IMO) but sell second hand for a fraction of that. I mean I got my corvette for less than £400! [/quote] warwicks are actually a fair bit up in price on where they were a few years back. [quote name='ambient' timestamp='1401225402' post='2461522'] Agree to a point, but then you see this [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/221210827655?limghlpsr=true&hlpv=2&ops=true&viphx=1&hlpht=true&lpid=108&device=c&adtype=pla&crdt=0&ff3=1&ff11=ICEP3.0.0&ff12=67&ff13=80&ff14=108"]http://www.ebay.co.u...f13=80&ff14=108[/url] Prices of a lot of things have dropped quite a bit over the last 6 months or so. There was a guy selling a TC HOF on here a few weeks ago, it was only about £10 less than a new one, but he'd paid a whole lot more for it only 6 months previous, and didn't realise the price had dropped so much. [/quote] I felt really sorry for the fella with the nice looking TC electronics RH750 and cabs - at not a bad price for a while - just before the shops slashed the new prices to be cheaper than his secondhand price

this is really intriguing me.

I met a guy years ago who was into reggae, ran his own sound system. Good music but the fella wasn't to be trusted any further than you could throw him. .. your sig says you're into Reggae so I'm not sure I can trust anything you say..... that sort of thing what the thread is about.

[quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1401094940' post='2459865'] You mean the Hellborg didn't have enough output for the power amp? [/quote] yeah. As I'm trying to sell the hellborg I'll point out it was for a [i]specific[/i] power amp that Will had. I have no problems with it! Not sure what it was, when I was looking for an amp myself I remember reading how some of the newer class D amp need a higher input sensitivity..... actually rather than repeat half understood things I've read on forums this thread is interesting.... http://www.talkbass.com/threads/crown-xls-drivecore-amps-input-sensitivity.711228/page-2

[quote name='Rumple' timestamp='1401018584' post='2459125'] Direct from the Status website, they are reasonably priced. I know some people have had issues with a dead string in a set, not something I've noticed but worth knowing before making a decision on whether to buy a set or not. [/quote] I bought a set of status strings years back and had a dead one... one call to Dawn and she put a replacement in the post the same day. Back to the topic... Do you ever wonder how many of the basses for sale as the owner wants something different/better, would not be for sale if they spent the $$ on new strings?

[quote name='Ed_S' timestamp='1401089216' post='2459817'] Guess what I'm saying is whatever you choose, run the numbers and make sure that the sensitivity of the power amp input is right to match up with the pre-amp output. [/quote] what he said - I picked my Hellborg preamp up partly because 2x18's nice power amp needed more output than it could give

where are you based? ACG? the boys at Alpher are good fellas too

anyone else wondering what of this will end up in the for sale forum under wife pressure?
