Would you mind telling me what it cost all in please?

What a load of dirty gits, there's no need for that is there.

Managed to snag Tony's Wizard Area 51 P pickup off him and it was a pleasure doing business, thanks Mate. Jon.

Have you had a look at pickfactory.com ?

I think if [i]you[/i] are happy with your sound then that's it, case closed, It doesn't matter what make and model your amp and cab is. FWIW the best bass sound I ever heard was a Stingray stright into an Ampeg SVT2pro amp and Ampeg 8x10" cab. Simply stunning, but then there was roadies moving it about! Cheers, JTB

Surely it's a 'horses for courses' situation. There's nothing wrong with the POD and IEM setup, if there's enough P.A. at your gigs to cope. If not then having a powered monitor or power amp & speaker cab there to cover things would sort it. Good luck on your quest! BTW I always loved the idea of a backline and monitor free stage setup, with electronic drums, pods and IEM's instead. I think it was Garbage that toured like that some years ago. It must be wierd taking an earpiece out to hear...nothing!

Also came and bought a Peavey TNT amp off me. Nice chap and a pleasure to do business with. Cheers Max, JTB.

The best submisssion of 2009 will receive a Barefaced Midget completely free of charge (if you'd rather have a Compact then we'll have to have a whip round for the extra £25 quid). My decision is final, this is not a democracy. And thus a tie-breaker is required from each respondent: One groovy sentence that hits the Barefaced vibe. Doesn't need to be about anything in particular, just has to shizzle ma nizzle, you feel me? Alex[/quote] What a great competition Alex, game on!

GAS, GAS, GAS!

[quote name='thepurpleblob' post='465055' date='Apr 17 2009, 02:30 PM']I think you're lucky it was just the council they contacted. They didn't call the old bill.[/quote] +1 I had the Police round once when there was a drum kit and guitar amp up and running one night. Not so nice I can tell you. As said before, I would just use a rehearsal room/Pub/Church Hall, etc. JTB

If it is a straight shoot out between a stock Fender USA model and a Shuker on a blind sale then I'd go Shuker every time. Also with Mr. Shuker you only need to put a deposit down to have one built, with the balance due on completion. Cheers, JTB

What about Alex's Compact cab - That may be just what you need?

[quote name='Buzz' post='463851' date='Apr 16 2009, 12:33 PM']Why don't you commission Alex to build you some cabs to meet your sepecifications? Chances are you're going to be spendings lots and lots of money on "commercial" cabs to get what you need.[/quote] +1 A nice pair of Compacts or Big Ones would do the trick methinks!

How about some pictures of it for us?

Alex at the Gallery can order in Lakland US models.
