  1. Nick Lowe used to be in a band called Rockpile. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockpile This was their 4th flight case, clearly. Since Rockpile split in '81 I would think your cabs are late '70s. Gauss (Cetec) 5840 speakers were the dogs dangly bits back in the day, people often used them as bass bins in PA systems due to their power handling. Nice bit of '70s history I'd say!
  2. It's not the worst April fools joke of today.....
  3. This: http://www.bassmute.com/bassmute/bm_mainframe.html Site looks a bit odd, but it is legit. Mate of mine has one, works a treat and is designed for bass.
  4. Get an MXR, not the greatest but better than Boss and sub-100. Keeley and Providence make the best choruses imo, but are >100.
  5. I had a CM on my pedalboard for a long time, ultimately only getting rid of it due to needing the board real estate it occupies. Loved the low gain tubey drive setting, but actually when cranked it did a very decent face melter too. I had the EBS as well, never worked as well for me to be frank, didn't like the overall sound of the thing. Never missed a DI on either....
  6. The NSCRFMs are prett much a direct copy of the US NSXLs including full maple quilted wings. Great basses, still sometimes miss mine even having owned USA ones too.
  7. Had one in black, great gig bags. Regret selling it really.....
  8. I would fork out the money and buy some decent speakers..... What you are suggesting may work but will not make a huge difference, better speakers and better EQ-ing will.
  9. [quote name='HazBeen' timestamp='1454954616' post='2974585'] GK RBs are amazing, probably best Watt per £ on BC currently. [/quote] Repeating myself....
  10. Buy a Dean Edge 8 or Rhapsody 8..... The BC member that bought mine was really happy.
  11. Metric vs Imperial hex sizes? If the bolt looks intact it is most definitely hex size related. Any bassist should own both in any case... Since you state double action and based on your description I am guessing you bought another Wick. Those are metric, perhaps the one provided and the ones you tried were imperial? Good luck.
  12. [quote name='Musashimonkey' timestamp='1458397093' post='3007271'] How is this still here?! Awesome kit at a fantastic price! [/quote] Exactly! Get over the D class fad people, pound for pound one of the best deals on BC.
  13. Very tricky to buy in any country, produced in small batches as and when they feel like it.
  14. [quote name='Kev' timestamp='1456948362' post='2993968'] I have just dropped out of batch 2 so someone in batch 3 may be moved up [/quote] Will happily step in Kev
  15. Come on then! No pics = no stand
