Just had an email from Glarry informing me that they are selling a new bass. Walking that PR tightrope of saying how much better it is without making their old stuff sound rubbish. However when I click the link I get a 404. Anyone know anything?

If you ask me it's based more off this

To compound my sickness, I absolutely mourn for every single bass I've ever sold as well.

I have two of them in one of these But as ever the cheapest option is a decent holdall or small suitcase from a charity shop.

By the by, the Behringer head on top of it is a hidden gem. I've now got two in case the one I bought back in the early noughties ever fails. Just great sounding, reliable amps can be picked up for spare change

I will continue to monitor retailers and alert you all as and when

I wasn't commenting on whether I liked it or not. Just explaining what new means.

Nope. I read that but couldn't relate it to my experience.

I know that my problem with multiple purchases of music gear is just that - a problem. I have always sought to fill the hole in my life with outside 'stuff', with quick fixes. Addiction and unhappiness have driven much of my existence and despite repeated attempts to find a more enriching solution, I fall back into old habits. It goes something like this. I'm miserable, triggered, angered, hungry, lonely - whatever - so I blow money I ought to be saving or using wisely on whatever is my obsession right now. Instant buzz mainly because it's a rash act. Excitement throughout the wait for the arrival of the latest superfluous purchase. Excitement when it arrives. Anticipation of its first proper use. Put it to one side and look for the next fix.

Unless you're a time traveller then obviously yes. It was released in 2022. So it's new. Shooby dooby dooby do.

That's a good point. They're virtually giving them away

They always have done. We had a Peavey pa in our bar and it survived being flooded! I am a Trace Elliot fan , have used their gear up and down the country since the early 90s, and I'm delighted Peavey are keeping the brand alive with such great gear

It's pretty nice I must admit. Through two Barefaced 15s it is fundamental.

G4M should be giving me commission

Dammit.

Ah, lovely. It's so nice to return the favour. I came here when GAS was starting to bite after a long time free from it. The good people here were literally no help whatsoever.

This is exactly my experience.

No. Sorry. This is the wrong place for that kind of help.

Yes. The two 8ohm cabs become one 4ohm .

I test the fundamental 'bassitude' of any set up with the scientific rigour for which I am rightly famous. 1. Bring gear into my room. 2. Turn up volume. 3. Plug in and play bass. 4. See if the door and windows rattle in their frames. The 2 Trace Elliot 1x10" cabs passed the test.

I have no idea what if any similarities it has to any other brand. Plenty of folk here saying how excellent it is. I tend to go with Basschatters' reviews rather than any others. But hey if you don't like the sound of it you don't have to buy it.
