I love the look of that Jet bass, I'm very tempted by the Electromatic version, it'd fit the look of my band so well.

Poor phone photo, but here's my nice light-n-loud rig these days:

Only the James Johnstone version I think

You could always go for this 'Bonsai Jazz'... [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1978-FENDER-BONSAI-JAZZ-BASS-USA-MADE_W0QQitemZ120504348863QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV?hash=item1c0e9e70bf"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1978-FENDER-BONSAI-J...=item1c0e9e70bf[/url]

Bargain of the year!!

That's right. Volume is just cut.

Always wanted one, and I think it would suit my band really well, but I'd never be able to afford one. May look into those Gretsch Jet Baritones in the new year though.

Got the one with the Biffy download thing (were Biffy on the cover? can't remember). Think that was a November issue?

If it was me, I'd be after a Spector Euro!

Another deal done with no problems - quick payment and good communication, cheers Tom!

I've had two Legends and a Q4, wish I'd never have sold the first one as it was perfect, but I was only thrashing punk out on Fenders at the time so it never got played. My current Legend's neck isn't 100% smooth on the back, but in terms of playability, comfort and tone, Spectors are the best basses I've ever played. I'm gassing for a Euro.

Sh*t! Sorry people, this is still sat at home, completely forgot about it after a few weeks working away - will be posted this week!!!

Out of those two, the Hartke. That GK head is from their budget range, you'd be much better off with one of the RB heads if you were going for GK (which I'd highly recommend!). The LH500 gets good reviews around here, and I've been happy with the 3500 when I've used that in the past.

Used my Puma 250 and S212 at a gig for the first time last weekend, no volume problems, only turned up slightly more than I do at practice, wasn't getting anything back from the monitors and I could hear myself better than I have in a long time!! Very happy with it!!

I've used Clayton before, got the yellow Dunlop's I usually use, with my band logo on, will be getting more soon.

However HWM went right down the toilet after 'A flight and A crash' (the basement at Leeds for that tour was one of my favourite gigs ever). And i've not listened to the Draft, so don't know if he's pulling the same tricks? side note HWM don't fit on this thread at all IMHO. much more than 'punk revival' trash.[/quote] Really? Caution is my favourite album, and The New What Next has got some great tracks on. The Draft do just sound like HWM without Chuck Ragan, and maybe with less of an edge. Not too much difference between The New What Next and A Million Pieces anyway. But no, they don't fit into that catagory, but Black was an influence on me when I was playing that kind of punk.

Loved playing in my two old punk bands (I say old, we're talking 2001-2007), but don't get to play any anymore Dan Andriano and Jason Black were big influences on me, and more recently Joe Principe from Rise Against.

It does the job... but I wouldn't use it as a backup for anything, I'd want something reliable for that job!
