    The one in our setlist I dislike at the moment is Bad Moon Rising. Not that it's a particularly bad song, but there are so many great CCR songs and everybody plays this and Proud f'ing Mary.

    Engineers generally like as clean a signal as possible which means pre EQ. That's all well and good until you run into a sound engineers who doesn't know what a bass should sound like.

    It would be worth it! I bought my 2x12 about 6 years ago and haven't even thought about another cab since then.

    Used to really enjoy playing You Oughta Know - Alanis Morrisette when I played in a band with a girl singer. Great stuff from Flea on that one and nice dynamics in the song too.

    I've just turned 65. My back is fine while I'm playing but kicks in big time at the end of gigs when I have to get down to unplug the pedal board or extension leads. I'm starting to develop a strategy now where the first thing I do is take the bass out to the car at the end of a gig. That little walk about seems to help to get a bit of gentle movement into my lower back. I've also got a rotator cuff issue but that is actually helped by lifting stuff with my arm pointing straight down so that's not too bad. P.S. I've agreed to help some friends (who are doing a self build) tomorrow. Pouring a 180m2 concrete slab. Half of the 'crew' have dropped out at the last minute, so what I thought might be quite an easy day doesn't look so good now. Dreading it to be honest but I'll give it a go.

    I have the 2x12 version of this cab and it's an absolute belter. Handles whatever you throw at it and sounds fantastic. These are incredibly light and the sound dispersal is also excellent, meaning you can clearly hear what you're playing on stage. Anyone who buys this is in for a treat.

    Geddy Lee. I can appreciate the skill and dexterity but it just leaves me cold. Probably genres of music as much as anything but similar with Steve Harris.

    Just sold Gerry a Spectracomp pedal. Pleasure to deal with.

    With a £300 budget you really do have to go second hand. I personally have never had a bad experience buying used off Basschat.

    NAD SWR SM500

    Japhet replied to Japhet's topic in Amps and Cabs

    Used the SWR on Saturday night and it didn't disappoint. Lovely tone and sat well in the mix. Only used 1 channel. It has a power amp for each side (stereo) or you can bridge it for full power. Will try it that way next time because it was pushing the single channel a bit hard at times. Added bonus; I picked up an unused Gear 4 Music rack bag for it for £30 on Saturday morning. I'm not usually that lucky.
