[quote name='Basszilla' timestamp='1492678123' post='3282161'] Beastly things aren't they. I always smash an sft into the front end just for a bit more articulation and poke. [/quote] My MJW is essentially a GT200 with dirtier (Ampeg-ish) front end options to get that articulation and poke you mention. Filthiest amp I've ever played. GT200 with BF cabs makes a lot of sense and overcomes the "power limitations" of having just 4 x KT88s

I've gigged one and it is more than adequate through my Barefaced SIX10. I usually use a Mesa 400+ or a Laney Nexus and it was able to match them in volume however compared to big valve monsters it's like alcohol-free beer. I use the Nano as a gigbag backup in case the real amps have issues. It came in useful one time and did a splendid job. The band is a loud rock covers band.

You can get the TWO10!with a 4ohm/12ohm switch. I had the first one.

Has anyone tried or gigged one of these? http://philjonesbass.com/product/ear-box/ I use massive rigs and am always struggling to hear my sound mainly because I'm standing. Ext to it in a tiny venue or small stage. Is this a solution? Any input much appreciated. Gimmick or life-changing must-have cure-all elixir.

Aerodyne jazz pros and cons. Let me know please.
Sean replied to julesb's topic in General Discussion
I'm a dyed-in-the-wool PJ player and I couldn't get on with the Aerodyne because: 1. The bound edges are uncomfortable. 2. The stock pups are really weedy. I swapped mine for Fralins and this then brought out the real sound of the bass... 3. The sound of the bass for whatever reason (basswood body perhaps?) didn't click with me. 4. You can't fit an aftermarket bridge without some fettling. The stock bridge is very good though. It looks stunning and has a great neck. -
[quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1491462078' post='3273137'] Update from me: It's the only thing I'm playing. Anyone got an El Toro kicking about?! [/quote] I kinda thought that could happen. The wunkay becoming the wunandonly. El Toro!? They come up for sale every now and then in the same way Halley's Comet comes round occasionally. I'd love one.

A classic vintage sounding P pickup that is 11.5k. From the website: [i][color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]This is a faithful reproduction of one of the most famous pickups in the world. It will give a very big and full tone with the slightly hollow grind that the originals are known for. Includes black covers (exposed pole pieces).[/font][/color][/i] Price includes postage 1st Class signed for to UK Mainland - Highlands and Islands extra.

Accurate to late 1960 J Bass coils, the plain enamel wire produces a tighter coil with slightly more output and a more aggressive tone. The bottom-end is extremely defined with fast response to playing dynamics; mids are punchy and solid while the highs are clear with vowel-like reproduction.

SOLD: 1987 Charvel 2B P/J bass with SD Quarter Pounder and hard case

As part of a brutal cull, I'm selling this Charvel 2B. It's a fabulous Japanese made bass from 1987. It's got a proper P shape neck, is set up and intonated beautifully with a medium action and has very little fret wear. I bought this from MacDaddy last October and had the pleasure of gigging it with him there in Shepherd's Bush Belushi's. I've used this bass as my main Eb-tuned bass since buying it but it's not set up for 40-100 roundwounds in standard E. It's a sparkly metallic white colour and has aged beautifully. The headstock is dink free and the marks on the body can be seen in the photos. It has a Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounder (SPB-3 @11.5k) and original Jackson J pickup @ 8.3k. It comes with a hard case which is in excellent condition. I can ship at extra cost, about £20-25 fully insured with a reputable company like DPD. I'll get a quote on request.
