Thanks for the welcome discreet! Neil

Bert Thanks for the welcome and the heads-up on the Spirit. Reviews I've read were pretty good, but I do know that the Hohner's are v good too having played one for many many years. Fingers crossed something will come from the wanted ad. Neil

No problem. Yes, Thomann are great, used them several times. Unfortunately the ones they have seem to be the left-over lefties (no-offence to lefties intended )! I did think about whether I could play one upside down, but decided the controls would both hinder me and could be accidentally adjusted at the wrong moment! Just have to see what happens to the wanted post. Neil

[i]BTW Miss W - a friend of mine's daughter recently got the Vox Lil Looper (think that's the name) - and it is very good, especially for live work! And it's reasonably priced too.[/i]

Thanks both! I'll definitely get something on the wanted page. GAK are somewhat unprofessional IMHO because when they don't have any stock they leave it on their website and note it 'call' for delivery date! Neil

Hi I'm a very experienced self taught bass player from Kent. I use a Hohner B2V through TC Electronics RH450 with TCE 2x 10 and 1 x 12 cabs for electric gigs. For acoustic set-ups I have a gorgeous Michael Kelly Dragonfly 5 fretless e/acoustic. Use a Hartke A25 for practice. Minimal effects - Octaver2 and chorus when required. I have dabbled with digital modelling and enjoyed a Variax for a while, but came back to the headless. Play mainly blues and soul. I'm trying to get hold of another B2V or a Steinberger Spirit XT25 to expand my collection! However, they seem to be extremely difficult to get. I did email Gibson and they said Steinbergers would be shipping to Europe in June, but there seems to be no sign of them. The Hohners don't seem to be done in black anymore (I do like my black guitars). I was wondering if anyone on here knew anything about the lack of guitars! Anyway, think I'll have a browse around the site........................... Regards, Neil
