Asking £400 here: https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/yamaha-bb1200-bass-guitar-made-in-1978-from-japan/1284329126 I would take a look myself if I was closer...

There are some Zoom emulations of the BDDI: look at B1on (£39), MS-60B (£78), and B3n (£127).

How do you run four HyDrives with one BH800?.

The Bugera BN410TS is 2800W and only 76.7lbs for a ratio of 36.5:1

I think someone bought some. See this thread:

There are a few options with camera tripod mounts: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Durable-Metal-Tripod-Mount-Clamp-Clip-Holder-with-Ball-Head-for-Camera-Universal/192306374135 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Large-Flexible-Gorilla-Tripod-DSLR-Camera-Camcorder-Phone-FREE-Phone-Adapter/232488003297 And then use in conjunction with a tripod mount phone holder: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Universal-Mobile-Phone-Clip-Bracket-Holder-Mount-for-Monopod-Tripod-Stand/201431825945

Check out the Zoom B1on.

Can you try out your existing Hartke head & 2x10 at the next gig, to see how it fares? The Headrush (or Alto TS312) might be more of a sideways movement, rather than an upgrade -- you don't want to end up with two "ok" rigs. Although with the Hartke, you'd have to resign yourself to making two trips to the car Alternatively - what is the Hartke rig, and does it have any resale value, to up your budget?

This is not something I've tried, but if you high-pass your monitor quite high (150-200Hz?), would the smaller powered speakers like an RCF 310 cope better? In theory you should still hear any lower frequencies spilling back from FOH.

This is going back about 10 years now, but back then the Surrey/Hampshire working men's clubs and Royal British Legions were paying around £300. Some are really strict with the timings and others are a bit more chill. I did some really great gigs and also others where the band is just there to fill in the time between the bingo and the meat raffle! Also don't inadvertently sit in one of the regular's favourite chairs, etc.

I think this might be the problem then. When bass not in use, I sometimes leave my switch in the active position, for many days - but with no cable plugged in. I haven't experienced battery drain.

Ah I see, thanks @Jack and @EBS_freak.

There are no sliders on the XR12 - but I might be confused/misunderstood.

I believe you can save "snapshots" -- so one per instrument? -- and then cycle through those snapshots with a midi pedal like the Tech21 Midi Mouse. This is just from reading the manuals so perhaps someone could confirm.

Sorry if it was already covered, but how does the Mouse sound going directly into the QSC? I.e. do you need an external pre-amp in the first place? If not, that would simplify things, of course. My pedalboard looks a bit like this: I switch between upright and P bass, but normally between sets so just physically swap the cable between basses. If the gig has a lot of switching, I'll add an AB box at the front. The Zoom MS-60B has a Fishman emulation module, which is the only thing I use. If you want to look it up in the Zoom manual, it's called 'Ac Bs Pre'. I have stored two of my own presets (you press the footswitch to change between your presets): for upright: some eq + HPF for P bass: just the HPF. The MXR is my DI box. The XLR output goes to FOH; the jack output goes to my RCF. The only knob I ever change is the output level, which (since I have the pedal in 'pre' mode) only affects the volume of the RCF, not FOH. I never use the EQ; if they made this pedal without the EQ (and footswitch), I'd buy that one instead. The whole thing is an expensive way to avoid using the volume knob on the RCF.

Unfortunately, you can't turn the Fishman Plat Pro off -- one of the reasons I sold mine. You'd have to put it in a loop and turn that loop on/off; or run it into an AB switch.

Since you're happy with the HD500X, I agree with your reasoning regarding the colouration and redundancy of getting a bass amp just to bypass it. I think better than the Alto TS 212, if you can go up to £299, would be this B-stock RCF 312 on eBay. The RCF website says 300W RMS into the 12" woofer and 100W into the compression driver. I don't know how loud your band is on stage, but it should be enough. If it really wasn't, the seller has a returns policy. BTW definitely use it in front of you in the wedge position. You'll hear it a lot better that way than something which is behind you.

What's your current rig? What are the sound problems you mention?

Look nice. I found the website: http://restauracja-gitar.pl/buzz-guitars/

@Frank Blank Providence Dual Bass Station?

The XR12 looks really interesting. Same footprint as a Pedaltrain Nano!

I use an MS-60B which has digital presets. As previously said though, if you're very happy with the Fishman then you'd probably want to keep it. Another option, if you want to physically connect two basses, is: bass 1 → pre-amp 1 → LS-2 input #1 bass 2 → pre-amp 2 → LS-2 input #2 LS-2 output → QSC You can use any AB switch here instead of LS-2.
