[quote name='Kinder' post='669954' date='Nov 30 2009, 01:08 PM']Cheers. Don't really want to spend more that £500 - I'm definitely happy to buy used. The head only cost me £160 second hand![/quote]£160 is a great price .. I've a Tubepath 10.1 so know that the Warwicks are great if underestimated amps .... only selling mine cause I've a full valve rig now. Gigged/played Tubepath through Schroeder 410L (4Ohm) neo cab & was the best sound I'd ever had (until valve rig but that st me back + £3k !) .. cab is for sale btw but not cheap £600 (padded cover) .. Schroeders definately 'project' nicely & seem to punch thru mix well .. think there's a 1212L for sale on forum which might be worth a look ... here's mine btw [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=44846&st=20&p=669073&#entry669073"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...mp;#entry669073[/url] cheers Si

[quote name='Lew-Bass' post='665342' date='Nov 25 2009, 05:15 PM']Two very similar basses, same electronics; what are everyone's opinions? Any good, which one is better etc. Comments appreciated, thanks[/quote]I've had a couple of SR's .. nice slim necks (good if you used to play some guitar like me lol) can't comment on the Cort tho but you're welcome to come & try my Ibanez DWB3 out as it's basically a high end SR in my opinion .. had 18v mod done & it's got EMG's if that helps ... cheers Simon

I've got an Eden Nemesis N8 I don't really use .. £100 [url="http://news.harmony-central.com/Product-news/Eden-Nemesis-N8.html"]http://news.harmony-central.com/Product-ne...Nemesis-N8.html[/url] Si

[quote name='JimBobTTD' post='576317' date='Aug 21 2009, 04:49 AM']I've played a good few Ibanez basses - both four and five strings - and I've managed to get along with every one of them! I can't recommend them enough![/quote]I've an Ibanez DWB3 (black stained no longer awful orange !) with 18v & EMG's .. nice fast neck like SR series .. for sale .. £400 !!

[quote name='Cabal' post='659765' date='Nov 19 2009, 11:32 PM']No, i didn't import it and i don't know of a UK dealer unfortunately. I don't think there is one. USA websites won't ship to the UK either. I kept my eyes peeled for a private sale for few months, and eventually bought it from a Basschatter. Hurrah! They come up on ebay from time to time, but otherwise they're very difficult to get hold of, as you probably know. Actually, i'd like another... Cheers, Jake M[/quote]I've got one for sale !! cheers Si

Nice looking rig !! Looking at getting a GK 400RB or 700RB (got a 15" 2U cab collecting dust) .. anyone got preference between the two ? Cab has kappalite 8Ohm driver btw but have a big rig for larger gigs .. I want to experience that GK growl !?! cheers Simon

Question regarding fan Puma 212 combo .. fan kicks in initially on power up but then turns off (maybe just system check), did a gig last night (without PA) in a small venue but on 'hollow' stage .. felt ground shaking a bit & thought it a bit boomy but that's probably to be expected. Thought it had enough power though by itself .. turned everything to 12o'clock for the next band coz they were more 'acoustic' (not really but definately a bit quieter than us). Their bass player used my rig & guitar so I got a good listen & it sounded fine out front. Amp must have been on 2 hours & when I went to turn off I was pleasantly surprised to find it 'cool' .. not warm & certainly not hot .. guess the fan works fine ! Have you guys had the same experience with the fan etc ? cheers Si ps. easy lift upstairs to van ..

[quote name='~tl' post='641128' date='Oct 30 2009, 02:39 PM']It's not a good idea. The minimum load for the amp is 4Ω, so using a 6Ω/4Ω cab with the 8Ω internal speakers would overload the amp (since 6Ω//8Ω = 3.4Ω or 4Ω//8Ω = 2.7Ω).[/quote]Is the Puma 212 combo a 500w or 350w version ? Not really important if it's loud enough but would like to know. cheers Si

[quote name='warwickhunt' post='638505' date='Oct 27 2009, 09:30 PM']Did anyone on here bag one of the 2x12 combos?[/quote]Bought one Monday .. only tested it at home but pretty loud & so light ! Gonna gig it on Tuesday & let next band use it so I can have a listen (only vocal PA) .. time to sell some gear now lol ! Simon ps. speakon ext states 'minium 8Ohm' .. can I run a 6 or 4 Ohm cab ? (probably wont ever need to tho)

[quote name='SteveO' post='636820' date='Oct 26 2009, 12:13 PM']give us a clue mate. what bass is it from?. what's up with it. crackly noises?, not turning?, no output in certain positions?[/quote] Thanks for response SteveO .. gonna try installing it again when I get my 'routed' bass back in a couple of weeks. All I remember is that it was 'shorting' a bit on some of the postions. Might just be a bent contact or something. I know it's a bit vague but I don't know how I can test it without soldering it back in .. I have two of these already (in my jazz basses) & don't really want to have to order another from US if I can help it. [url="http://www.stanhinesleypickups.com/passive_controls.htm"]http://www.stanhinesleypickups.com/passive_controls.htm[/url] Was hoping someone would be able to take a look (test with meter or something) ... cheers Si

[quote name='turtlemoon' post='624514' date='Oct 12 2009, 10:37 PM']Hi All. I currently own a hartke 4x10tp and a 1x15tp powered by a hartke 3500 head Have had this set up for a while and Iam thinking of upgrading , will probably keep the head but cab wise I would like something with a bit more bottom end. Been looking at the EBS 410 Proline Bass Cabinet , but its really difficult to decide as there is no dealer near me where I can check out some cabs. Any advise would be most welcome.[/quote]I've A 4Ohm Schroeder 410L you can try out (Bradford) pretty light @ 26kg cheers Simon

I've an Eden Nemesis N8 which I bought for home practice but have hardly used. It was the best sounding small amp I could find but is no longer needed so I'd be willing to sell. You can come check it out if you like.
