I have a kappalite 3015LF in a very small Flite cab and I like it very much. I play mainly reggae and soul music and I like a very deep bass tone. This driver sounds clear, deep and smooth, with more treble response than I expected. The non LF version might be more suitable if you like more upper mid and treble. I have no idea how they would sound in your cab though. I also had the kappalite 3015LF in an Ashdown cab and it sounded great there too.

Great wife

Dunno, unless it's coz you're a.... [quote]Totally Juvenile Idiot[/quote]

I just did it for you - I clicked 'share' on the youtube page and then copied and pasted the url. Hope that helps.

I just copy and paste the url - it usually works, but sometimes not and I don't know why.

[quote name='EBS_freak' timestamp='1357865373' post='1929913'] Careful those guys running a wired IEM setup - you really need a limiter in there or otherwise at the first sign of feedback you'll be having very hurty ears! [/quote] Oh, I didn't think of that - could you get feedback through headphones fed from the monitor sends on the desk?

[quote name='charic' timestamp='1357849250' post='1929572'] As for the johnston thing... lets not go there eh? [/quote] Sorry man - I didn't know it was a sore point - must have taken him ages to delete all those posts though

[quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1357861427' post='1929858'] I thought wired 'phones would be too restricting for the guitarist and bass player (me). [/quote] I was only going to use them for the singer, we would still have a vocal monitor or two for the rest of us. The singer always complains that he wants to be louder in the monitor and that can produce feedback, so IEM would help him hear himself better. We can't afford a proper wireless set up though.

I like it.

I like the idea of budget IEM via wired headphones - going to look into that, thanks Owen.

Thanks RR - he was here less than 2 years and managed 3,662 posts, I wonder if he misses us[font="helvetica, arial, sans-serif"][color="#a4a4a4"][size=3].[/size][/color][/font]

Sorry to but in, but why did Johnston leave? He was a regular poster and I wondered what happened to him.

[quote name='51m0n' timestamp='1357826717' post='1929054'] That diesnt seem to be the right url to me, it jsut goes to the front page of soundcloud - or am I being dense?? [/quote] I had the same problem when clicking the link, but it works fine if you copy and paste it. It must be the way it was entered via BCs link option.

[quote name='charic' timestamp='1357636488' post='1925574'] I think it's a little unrealistic to expect people to download the tracks to listen (it's optimistic enough to expect many to listen to different variations of the same track several times) [/quote] They are big files to download, so I doubt most people will download them all. The option is good to have though, because it might be useful to download the 2 or 3 favourites for further appraisal after auditioning them on soundcloud.

[quote name='Mornats' timestamp='1357674879' post='1926580'] And overall, the improvements in technique, and again confidence, have given me a much more prominent, upfront and bassier sound. There's a lot more to it, many minor nuances that have helped but I've described the larger changes. [/quote] Thanks, it's interesting how we all play and I think there is no universally correct way. I have quite a heavy touch and heavy gauge flatwound strings help with my tone. String type has quite a big effect on my tone, but I still sound like me on any strings. I have never had a lesson and I'm happy with my tone, but I often wish I could sound like some other players who use a lighter touch and play faster than I can. I would say tone is about 90-95% in the player and 5-10% in the gear. It's not all in the fingers though, the head and the heart have their parts too.

Great, thanks for the link.

[quote name='lettsguitars' timestamp='1357596210' post='1925228'] Find a bass [i]you [/i]like and forget names and image. [/quote] Best advice yet.

I only ever mix to 16 bit 44k so I can burn cds, but I take the point about SoundCloud's compression. There's no problem sharing the file anywhere, we're not precious about our music.

[quote name='White Cloud' timestamp='1357589601' post='1925049'] Its [s]almost like[/s] a form of brain washing. [/quote] Fixed

There are some great ideas in all the mixes and the range of approaches is amazing. Can I suggest everyone allows downloads on their mix, so they can be listened to anywhere without streaming on line. Should my original mix be included in the competition? Steve.

[quote name='Bobby K' timestamp='1357580012' post='1924812'] Fretmeister has got a very nice example up for sale as we speak: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/194430-fs-fender-japan-1962-re-issue-precision/page__p__1907005__hl__fender%20japan__fromsearch__1#entry1907005"]http://basschat.co.u..._1#entry1907005[/url] If it's anything like mine was, you could do a lot worse than take a punt on it [/quote] I agree that looks like a very nice bass. My favourite Jazz apart from the '63 is a Jap one.
