[quote name='fretmeister' timestamp='1491241017' post='3271509'] That's the full fat version. They are now showing £849 for the LT [/quote] Whoops

£1224 on Anderson's

Think the 1960 is 24kg

[quote name='fretmeister' timestamp='1490951871' post='3269291'] Lots of punters never notice anything except out of tune singers and dodgy time keeping. I'm reaching the point of getting me some Dave Lee Roth leather chaps with the arse cut out of them just to get them to notice! [/quote]

Been very pleased with the Bugera 1960 I picked up. Marginally less than the Orange AD200b in weight (a fifth of the price too) but the glass and iron puts a huge grin on my face and the notes seem to bloom more and have more presence; seems to fill the band sound out more. Happy to take the weight hit for what I get in sound until I can carry it no more!

anyone seen this before http://www.pedrozappa.com/vulfpeck-bass-covers/

[quote name='PaulGibsonBass' timestamp='1490792750' post='3268029'] If anybody has a spare ticket for London.... [/quote] Funny you should ask........... No. Wait. No, not got one. Don't have one for myself!

Accidentally found Joe Dart in a random 2013 Bass Player poll that came up in a Google search for something else. Just listened to the Beautiful Game album and Beastly and IGF tracks. Just a superb player

[quote name='stevie' timestamp='1490736000' post='3267598'] Yes, well I noticed. But would you say it to your friends down the pub, or is this an internet thing? I'm not being critical - I am genuinely curious. [/quote] Maybe I've spent too much time on TB..........

[quote name='stevie' timestamp='1490710395' post='3267267'] I'm just idly wondering whether people actually say "pull the trigger". [/quote] Well I do

Unfortunately I was ill so couldn't do the gig. A full gig report will have to wait but as I had it on 1 on the gain with the master disengaged I can't see why I would want for volume!

What I do know is that the Noble makes me want to play!

[quote name='SH73' timestamp='1490546073' post='3265859'] Looks good. But why is there a picture of Steve Harris? I don't believe he uses Orange. [/quote] He's endorsing the four stroke Apparently......

yeah I'm definitely getting it. It is the sum of the parts that make it what it is.

[quote name='nash' timestamp='1490121982' post='3262405'] How's that Noble!? [/quote] Good! Probably best summed up by a friend that said you notice it gone more than you notice it there! I think there are other products out there that can do the same or similar but I sum it up as follows Is it worth the cost to put a tube in my signal chain? Probably not. Is it worth the cost as a DI? Probably not Is it worth the cost as a power supply? Probably not BUT The sum of all these makes this a very desirable box IMO. I'm really warming (see what I did there?! ) to it as a functional piece of kit. Makes it very easy to power the pedals, has a great eq and volume I can control at my feet, gives a great DI signal of my sound and sends some colouration to the amp if required. I also put it through the effects return and it sounded great. I did take it off my board for this Saturdays gig as I'm using the Bugera which is all valve but then decided to put it back on for flexibility. You can never have too many tubes Now we could just say I'm justifying a 1k investment but the more I use this box the more I'm liking it. My sound, consistently. I've gone through a lot of Preamps and was struggling to gel with this one but I think I finally get it. Is it worth it? That's like the Mac vs PC debate! Check out the Noble thread in Amps and Cabs for my other thoughts.

[quote name='krispn' timestamp='1490177151' post='3262811'] Getting more of a feel for it now Mike? How's it sounding into the amp? [/quote] Yes I think I am.
