  1. GR Bass aero 110 @ 10lbs and a GR Mini 1 @ 3lbs.
  2. https://www.grbass.com/portfolio/pocket/
  3. I have had 2 of these in the UK. Amps both work fine with my active basses, but with passive bass or my active basses switched to passive, there is a "Hum" when the guitar volume control is backed off from full. Mesa say they couldn't recreate the problem with the first amp when it was sent back to them. The USA store say they did have the problem on the amp when it was sent back to them, and they sent it back to Mesa. The store tested a second amp which was fine, but when I tried that in the UK, it had the same "Hum" problem as the original. I have to say apart from the "Hum" issue, the amp is great and because I don't use passive mode on my basses, it has become my first call amp...D800 is now spare and or used for louder gigs. All cables/mains checked.....the Hum issue doesn't happen with my D800 or D800+ di. D800+ di fed to the aux in on the D350 is also fine, suggesting a D350 input/preamp problem. Hum happens with my 3 Sadowsky's in passive mode. Also my Xotic jazz bass. Also happens with other basses I've tried..Fender Jazz Bass, Maruszczyk Jake PJ and a Gibson jazz guitar. Anybody else using one of these in Europe 230V/50hz?
  4. Does anyone in the UK or Europe have a Mesa D350 amp? Would like to ask about your experience with it. Thanks
  5. Hot Covers are very good.
  6. Back in 1976😁 Bass and hair!. Was a good bass, pickups let it down. Neck and general feel if the bass was quite Wal like....I did have a Wal 10 years later.
  7. This is a new product by GR bass. Can't comment on it as I haven't seen or tried one. https://www.grbass.com/portfolio/pocket/
  8. Best cab I've owned in 47 years of playing. Sad you didn't get one. I similarly can't get a mesa d350 in the UK till at least sometime next year😥
  9. I've had Roqsolid covers, I found they wore out. HotCovers are better quality..IMHO. I believe Barefaced covers are made by HotCovers.
  10. MXR M80 compressor for sale only. £90 delivered in the UK. Works perfectly, 2 small marks on paint, see photos. I don't have original box, but will include instructions printed from the internet. Pedal has velcro on the back.
  11. Good luck, they are very nice basses....I have NYC jazz and no buzz, but preamp lookis physically different and is mounted different too.
  12. I think the noise you're getting is exactly what I was getting. Only when you intrduce the rear pickup (mixed with P or solo) do you get the buzz. It's the rear pickup cavity's proximity to the preamp I'm sure. Don't think you'll need to swap out the pickup unless for other reasons. You can shield the rear cavity without removing the pickguard....might be wirth a try first. Make sure screening is earthed...I stuck foil to the metal underside of the pickup, didn't need any soldering. Strings of coarse are personal taste...is your bass a 5 string? I didn't like the TI B string, its a thick old rope with poor definition. I much prefered Labella low tension flats
  13. Which amp is it for, they were different sizes? I have an iAmp500 bag I dont use.
  14. I have same bass and stopped the buzz by shielding the rear pickup cavity with foil tape, its silent now. I also got the shielded scratchplate and I rerouted the pickup wires away from the preamp..,which was also replaced so active/passive were the same volume.
  15. I replaced the jack on my NE2...watch there is a dropper resistor under some heatshrink
  16. Also 4 ohm minimum working....no 2 ohm. It has a bright switch rather than a deep switch, but has usb power outlet
  17. TORT for me😊but it's what you like that matters.
  18. There are no cooling fans, the case is one big heatsink. I've been inside it. Baby Sumo 600 watts.
  19. It is fanless, I have one, nice and quiet for home use. Mesa d800+ preamp di seems to drive it ok. There are 1k and 1.2k versions also available now
  20. Just for info, the Mesa TT has tube processing on both channels
  21. I've been using my 210 and 112H for over a year now...one or two gigs a week and haven't had any disasters yet. I do carry in my own car and I'm careful.....I do see why some people are concerned about damage, especially the corners. I just don't know what I would buy if there were serious problems with the construction. I like the sound so much I would be looking at the wood GR bass cabs I think. However, all good so far, you just have to be careful, as I am with my basses.
