[quote name='tredders' timestamp='1368819395' post='2082044'] What are the necks like on these? Are they like Stingrays & Big Al's? I never get on with MM necks, but have always wanted to try a Bongo... [/quote] I've not played a Stingray or Big Al so in all honesty cannot say - but looking at a couple of Talkbass threads it appears that Bongo neck is 'different' to the other EBMM basses, at least. Sorry I can't be more helpful

**SOLD** For sale, used 2005 Music Man Bongo 4HH in black with graphite pearloid pickguard, including a custom leather strap that was created from an image of the pickguard pattern. Slideshow of images here: [url="http://www.flickr.com//photos/auntiebadger/sets/72157633439046199/show/"]http://www.flickr.co...439046199/show/[/url] In full working order - gigged once (in the hard case!). Now that my band is only playing Motown and blues, the Sandberg VS is getting all the playtime because of its custom PB63 pickups suiting the material better. Excellent neck with a rock solid bridge and tuners. Very easy action adjustment via the truss rod wheel and bridge saddles. Wear and tear: Some chipping on the edge of the fingerboard , a chip on the bottom front near the strap lock, and a thin scuff on the front of the headstock (see photos) Comes with original Music Man hard/plush case (some scratches on outside, see photo slideshow), the case key, cleaning cloth, a wiring schematic and an Ernie Ball sticker. Strung with Ernie Ball Hybrid Slinkys. £725 couriered in the UK - I will use Aylesford couriers who are near me and have been recommended on the Courier thread. The bass in the Sandberg's cardboard box, with plenty of bubble wrap. Or £700 of you want to pick up, I'm 15 mins from J5 M25. Payment via bank transfer, or PayPal (buyer pays fees). Thanks for looking and please let me know any questions. EDIT: corrected which motorway I live near - M25 not M2%!

Can I run passive monitors on this setup?
Kevsy71 replied to Kevsy71's topic in Accessories and Misc
Just an update on this: we ran both monitors active in the end off the mono aux mixer feed, and it worked fine - as suggested above it meant the sax/harp/piano/vocals could be mixed independently for the monitor feed. Thanks again for the advice! -
My California VS, in 3TS with matching headstock and 'gold' hardware, extra pimped with 'gold' bell. Klopmann PB 63 pickups.

Can I run passive monitors on this setup?
Kevsy71 replied to Kevsy71's topic in Accessories and Misc
Thanks for all the advice! Will daisy chain from the speaker outs....and if that's not cutting it will look into active as Truckstop suggests. Cheers! -
Morning all, With this mixer: [url="http://www.gear4music.com/PA-DJ-and-Lighting/MIX04AU-8-Channel-Mini-Mixer-with-USB-by-Gear4music/I7D"]http://www.gear4music.com/PA-DJ-and-Lighting/MIX04AU-8-Channel-Mini-Mixer-with-USB-by-Gear4music/I7D[/url] and this power amp: [url="http://www.djsuperstore.co.uk/QTX-Pro1000-Black"]http://www.djsuperstore.co.uk/QTX-Pro1000-Black[/url] ...will I be able to run two passive monitors in addition to the two PA speakers? For example if I use the power amp speakon outputs for the PA speakers, and jack outputs for the monitors (or vice versa)? Many thanks!

Thanks all! Just hoping it's not going to be rained off...

Cheers Steve ! [quote name='Bassman Steve' timestamp='1342190596' post='1731265'] I got to the gig and found I'd left my bass at home! [/quote] If that's the worst that happens I'll be fine, as I live round the corner

Playing our drummer's anniversary party tomorrow, a five song set! First time I've played live, but at least it's to a non-hostile audience (well, until we start that is...). Only worry is the weather as we will be outdoors- so we may have to make an impromptu Knebworth using gazebos... Band name is The Expändables , will try to record and post the set here: https://www.facebook.com/ExpandablesUK

+1 for McVie/Mayall, also the bluesier Cream numbers from Jack Bruce are a must.

I've only played a MM Bongo! Really must broaden those horizons...or go the James Jamerson route and keep the Bongo for 30 years and never change the strings/adjust the truss rod again...

First jam recording - bass drum and lead guitar were missing! Bass is Bongo 4HH through Trace GP7SM 130 and Trace compressor....mic needs better positioning as it wasn't so distorted live.

Thanks for the advice Musky and Muttley (Deputy Dawg and Stop the Pigeon references in one thread, love it ) . Tried out the steps above, nothing obvious and still distorting when tested separately...so I've now got a couple of new Celestion BL10-200S in there and they sound great, so will see if anyone is interested in the dodgy ones for parts.
-
OK no luck with either the rubberised Super Glue or Copydex, have opened the cab and now suspect the wiring... The speakers are the original Celestion C10H-100s at 16 Ohm. The amp and cab are rated at 8 Ohm, so I would have thought the default wiring would be parallel to present 8 Ohm. But, it does not appear possible: the red/black leads coming from the cab jack socket terminate in one +ve and one -ve spade connector. So at best I would be able to connect those to one speaker and then link that to the other in series, to present 32 Ohm....not a good match for the amp. Any suggestions on how best to achieve parallel wiring? Cheers. EDIT: schoolboy error - parallel achieved by jack to speaker 1 +ve, then onto speaker 2 +ve; then jack to speaker 1 -ve, then into speaker 2 -ve. Distortion still there, so am going to bite the bullet and get a couple more speakers...
-
Much appreciated, Dad 3353 and iCastle - I'm going to give it a go as I'm fully prepared to swap out for a pair of Eminence. I have some of the "Power flex" (rubber infused) Super Glue, which is intended for flexibility, will let you know the results!

Hi all, my Trace Elliot 2x10 (2001T) cab sounds distorted at all volumes, both speakers seem to be at fault. They are Celestion 10"s rated at 16Ω, wired in parallel, and have been plugged in (with speaker cable) to a Trace GP7 SM 150, which has two 8Ω speaker outputs. The Amp is a combo and sounds fine with its own speaker, but trying the extension cab either with or without the combo speaker plugged in results in fuzzy distortion...(I have tried both speaker outputs from the amp, no luck). The dust cap of each speaker appears to have lost its bond with the cone for approx 1/3 of its circumference, see red areas circled in pictures: ...could that be causing the distortion, and if so any tips how to fix it? Thanks for looking and any advice much appreciated
