The Pro I pickup seems to divide opinion! I have them on my 5 and really like them, nice and bright with the tone up, but easily tamed with the tone pot. I picked up a Pro 1 in black/maple. I really wanted that bright blue, but ended up with this one as it was the lightest I could find. The build and necks are superb!

@Osiris many thanks, great shout. Thinking about buying the L6 one and then going one of these routes for a backup. The Rockboard/1Spot could be a solid option. There will always be a use for it too if it is a standard size, plus adapter.

Interesting! I already have a Harley Benton PowerPlant ISO-1AC, which has 500mA outputs. Which cables and size converter do you use? Even as an option, that’s good to know.

Yeah, it’s a bit cheap. I know others hate the PSU, I’d always thought it to be fine and have done tons of gigs with it. Now I want to burn the thing!

I hadn’t even checked. Have you tried one, is it safe to trust that it’s all sound and does put out the 3A it says it does? Thanks, I think I thought it L6 used an unusual sized barrel and that nobody would offer a 3rd party.

Yeah all was fine thanks, there’s plenty of backup options to get out of a jam. I’m surprised by how little Line 6 are interested though. Their service centre have just advised that the country adapters aren’t available separately. GAK only charge £25 for a new one, which is fine, but they won’t post to me. I’m reluctant to pay £50 for one though, which is what everyone else charges.

To be honest, that is pretty much what the ferry costs if you’re not on foot! Annoying though, as GAK have always shipped here. It’s very rare that we have to pay extra.

My Stomp PSU crapped out mid set at a wedding last night. On inspection it seems that the issue is the 3 pin clip on part, as something is rattling around inside it. GAK sell the PSU for a reasonable price, but will only ship the to Isle of Wight orders of £140+. Line 6 were very unhelpful when contacted. Does anybody have the 3 pin bit they no longer use and would sell, or the whole DC3 PSU? Please PM me if you do!

I’ll see what turns up! I’m not too worried either way, at that price. Looks like they may have discontinued the 112 combo, where’s the other seems more available and marketed more clearly as Evo II.

Thanks all, good to hear. I just looked at the invoice, £55 quid is import duty. The combo cost £276. Which seems absolutely mad. That must be quite a lot below a retailer’s cost? @la bam I may be wrong, but I believe the 1x12 is a mk1. Did they do a mk2?

Is yours the 112 or 115 combo? I’ve just ordered the 12, just trying to gauge the size!

Couldn’t resist those MP prices… and not sure how they’ve done it at that price. But, I’ve got a RM 112 combo on the way. Have wanted a small(ish) combo for ages, at £332 delivered, there’s not really any competition; even at 2nd hand prices.

fantastic, love that. FWIW, the Mono Betty is apparently vegan too. Accidentally vegan, I guess as Mono don’t mention it.

I did the same with the Aurora at the time 😂

For sure. I couldn’t make mine break a sweat, and I did really try once. I bottled it before the cab! Bet that EBS really suits it. Way too big and powerful for my needs now, and long gone, but this was a helluva set up:

@AndyTravis matching cabs and basses are undeniably cool. You still enjoying the 212? Making me miss mine, keep seeing it.

If you spend loads of extra on a Mexican Fender, it’ll be great for you but you’ll likely lose a bunch of your initial outlay if you choose to sell it later on. Lots of recommendations for other basses, but in my recent experience, if you get a good one, then there isn’t much else that out Fender Precisions a Fender Precision. But, as shown in these types of thread, it’s pretty subjective.

Love that. Wonderful gift.

Ooof, beauty. How did you come across it? Was it a custom order or good find? Great looking set up all round there!

I like Markbass stuff a lot and it’s cool that they raised the low to 68hz, but still 10kHz for treble?
