[quote name='Musicman20' timestamp='1360845788' post='1977252'] I agree on the Gk front. If you want a more clangy agressive tone [/quote] Having actually used a GK head with an NV610 and 412 for a few years, clangy does not spring to mind. Its a very good combination with a good punchy kick.

Tickets booked for Saturday.

Well done Michael, looking forward to hearing about it.

Cheers Dan

Any owners running these bridged? If so any problems? Ta

[quote name='steve-soar' timestamp='1358252713' post='1935524'] I missed all of this. So, did Gareth receive yet another unsatisfactory bass? [/quote] So the legend goes!

http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Nomad.html I saw this the other day. Have not used it but might try some. But as Telebass says above a micrfibre cloth is a peachy thing to use.

Good going.

Nice work They really seem to give great aftersales service.

Contact Agedhorse over on Talkbass, he will point you in the right direction.

I spoke to him on the phone Thursday morning, he did say he was extremely busy so we only had a quick chat but my new Thumper based pickup was delivered in to me on Friday, this was not a stock model either, it was a custom wind. As far as I'm concerned, that's bloody good service.

[quote name='woodster' timestamp='1352981852' post='1870039'] East P-Retro? [/quote] +1. Would not be without mine now.

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1352137893' post='1859239'] Actually that's interesting - just had a look at the Mono and iGig sites and while the single Mono bag is much lighter than the equivalent iGig bag the dual ones weigh almost the same amount - not at all what I expected. After my experience with the Mono bag which IMO is great for protecting your instrument but not a lot of fun to carry on your back for any serious length of time, I will never buy another gig bag without trying it out first. Also while lots of storage space in the bag is a good idea in principle, in practice it's going to make what is already a heavy bag plus 2 basses even heavier. It would have to be fantastically comfortable to wear and I'd want to try it full of all the stuff I intended to put in it before parting with any money. [/quote] If we we're closer I'd let you borrow mine to see what your thoughts are as I am not gigging at the mo. I've been looking at the Monos for my spare.

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1352030996' post='1857910'] But all the other semi-rigid cases are considerably heavier than the Mono ones. An important factor IMO for a case design to be carried for any distance. [/quote] The iGig is not considerably heavier and I find it very comfortable to wear on my back IMO.

[quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1350249518' post='1836440'] Got my (used) Compact last Friday - very pleased indeed. Decided to amend my BF order to a Midget on the grounds of maximum flexibility, and the extreme unlikelihood of me ever needing to fire up 2 Compacts at once! [/quote] Your not going to regret that at all

[quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1349718660' post='1829592'] Anybody in the Swindon area with a Compact and Midget? I have a Compact on order, but have just done a deal to buy one from a BC member. I need to decide whether to stick with 2 Compacts, or change my order to a Midget, so would appreciate the opportunity to compare. For Midget: even more portable than Compact, 3 rigs from 2 cabs (Midget; Compact: Midget + Compact) For 2nd Compact: possibly bigger sound, not a big fan of aggressive mids (but do like the mid frequencies that flatter a fretless) So - anyone local to Swindon with this rig? [/quote] That'll be me

Just bought some Silver Slap double bass strings from Clarky. Being a doghouse bass newbie he even made the generous offer for me to try before buying. A first class chap to deal with with great communication throughout. All the best mate Steve

[quote name='Musicman20' timestamp='1349550935' post='1827717'] Me thinks this might go down quite well over here... [/quote] Am sure it will. Look how popular Barefaced is. Its for a reason A properly engineered bass cab, good weight and decent components.
