Same. Not used a pedal tuner since I got my Polytune clip 2 years ago.

The "your love keeps lifting me, love keeps lifting me, lifting me higher and higher" part?? Yeah, neither can I!
-
Tricky song to start on! The bass is dead easy, but constant in the verses and there are lots of words! Good luck! Maybe try some exercises like singing scales or a few songs where you can chug root notes.

Our drummer uses an electric kit for a decent percentage of our gigs. Most of the time we all use in ears. We have a quality PA and I don't think anyone has ever argued drums sounded weird. But we have had several compliments about the mix and overall volume, which in smaller venues can be an issue. No matter how good a drummer is with technique and groove, if they're too loud, it's a bad gig. For me, anyway, as a player or punter.

Yep! I messaged them yesterday and got a reply this morning! I'd never paid much attention to the black ones, but it doesn't half shine in those high res photos! Very nice buy! I've got a few bits to shift first really, so it's for the best for me too to be honest! Look forward to hearing your thoughts on her when she arrives though!

Congrats... Though, you can't have beaten me to it by much!! I got a message back saying it had sold and immediately thought it would have been you! Haha.

CAB recommendations to go with MarkBass Little Mark Tube
M@23 replied to BenGoldingBass's topic in Amps and Cabs
Not for me because I always send pre EQ. I don't have the issues with 'high end roll off' that others do. I even use a touch of VLE. The Ninja rig is just my stage monitor for most gigs. As we always put everything FOH. It does a better job of that than any rig I've had previously. When it is a standalone, I really like the sound of it though. I never want for more highs. -
I did see your write up! I only briefly played one, it was great. Unfortunately, I'd have to move my Sadowsky on if it were to happen, so could do with spending some serious time with one first. I'd love the grey, but I think that was a very limited run?

I'm tempted to make enquiries about a BBNE2...

For function work, I think it's hard to beat the Markbass Ninja 122. It just does it all, in a cab with a small footprint, that weighs 18kg. They're 8 ohm, so you could run two, if needed. Defo check one out if you're able to. -
I've got a dead string that just came on a new Sire bass. Believe they're EXL170-5 - same as your set... Have to say, I'm really liking the sound and feel of the rest of the set! Normally the strings I use are a pain to get hold of, so, dud aside, I'm well happy that these are working for me.
-
Great 80s pop tune, cool key change too! Oh...
-
Was this once mine? Beautiful cabs. A P bass with flats fit these like a glove! -
My exact rig, never been so happy with my setup! -
Which bit is giving you trouble? If it's the transcription I can do you a little how to video?
-
I only have to look the wrong way at EB strings and they go rusty. Never had any other strings do it, but EB always rust on me. The guitar strings are worse than bass for it.
-
Nope. Although we know on paper brand X is technically better, the reality is that in practice it doesn't make for a more suitable product for all.

Bought a Neotech strap from John. I almost missed out, but he was kind enough to message me when it became available again. Really good comms and super quick delivery. Also didn't complain at having to pay an 'Isle of Wight tax' on delivery! Deal with confidence!
-
What percentage of people actually care? Most of those that do probably shouldn't quite as much. I had TKS s112 and they sounded great and were plenty loud enough.
-
Footloose. Cracking bass parts throughout. The final chorus after the build is a belter though.
-
It has a DI out too, which not many seem to at that price.
-
Did you bite the bullet @TRBboy? I'm thinking about grabbing a 735a.
-
Ahh, nice man. I agonised over this or my Sadowsky a while back. Guessing it is from Guitar Guitar? This had an outrageous B string and was beautifully made. I regrettably passed as I wanted to go active. You've got a beautiful instrument there though!

Great cab and a good guy. Deal with confidence here folks. -
Would it fit in a guitar case?
