  2. MB1. Ive seen these cases !.....you havent got a cat in hells chance of getting a markbass 210P in one!
  3. MB1. And pianos...and outboard motors....... seems it pays to diversify?
  4. MB1. I remember Status being on Tomorrows World...... must have missed the fretted fretless.

I'd be interested to hear if it is a different beast to the ABM - or just an ABM with a graphic in a red party frock. MB1. +1 And a lovely little princess on it! MB1. nobody got one of these Ashdown MK amp heads?
  6. [quote name='stingrayfan' date='Oct 21 2007, 11:16 PM' post='77562'] I had another look at my BB614 tonight and I take back what I said about it being a bit mass produced. If it had Fender on the headstock, people would coo about how well it was made MB1. only if it were American!
  7. MB1. No ! you were not dreaming someone has made such a bass,think it was mentioned previously on bassworld,not cheap as i remember!
  8. [quote name='obbm' date='Oct 21 2007, 10:57 PM' post='77550'] According to the manual the Ampeg SVT-3 PRO has a solid-state output stage so you can use either a single 4-ohm cab or two 8-ohm cabs to extract the quoted max power of 450-watts You can also use a single 8-ohm cab to achieve a reduced ax output of 275-watts. If it had a valve/tube output stage then you would have to match the cab(s) to the amp. MB1. Thats that sorted then....anyone got a spare svt 4x10 hlf (4OHM!) ........Im also ,not one to take two bottles into the shower!
  9. [quote name='phsycoandy' date='Oct 17 2007, 08:45 PM' post='75759'] Loads of u guys use Yammys, Ive tried a few in shops and been totaly underwhelmed, by the sound, and presence let alone the lack of mystique of say a Fender and indeed any future residual value. Please put me right. MB1. They used to make good Motorbikes?
  10. MB1. that was what i meant,2x8 ohm will give you 4 ohm. I own a SVT CL and AMPEG advise you to use 2x8 ohm cabs to get the full power power at 4 ohm.
  11. [quote name='6stringbassist' date='Oct 20 2007, 06:38 PM' post='77080'] You're a looney. MB1. Strange Bassman 7 knows exactly where im coming from and so does Gabriella Drake!
  12. [quote name='originalfunster' date='Oct 21 2007, 09:43 PM' post='77494'] Hi All, complete idiot here needs some advise. I have a T/E 4 x 10 300w cab and a T/E 2 x 10 300w. I am fairly sure that both cabs are 8ohms. I have an ampeg SVT 3pro head which says on the back min speaker load 4ohms. as I am sure each of mine are 8 (and 8 being greater than 4) can I safely connect either of my 2 cabs without blowing anything to bits? (dont want to cart both cabs to rehersal) Cheer MB1. NO! it doesnt work like that you can either use a 4 ohm single cabinet or 2 x 8 ohm cabinets which if wired in parallel will give you 4 ohm.DONT use one 8 ohm as youll damage the amp.
  13. MB1. Its a big NO from him...... and a big NO from ME!

  15. [quote name='john_the_bass' date='Oct 20 2007, 05:59 PM' post='77054'] Martin, is this yours? Buzz, it was the briefest of gasps - I think it could be a job for my old man. I've not got much of a clue when it comes to taking these things apart. MB1. Nice Beaver!
  16. [quote name='stingrayfan' date='Oct 20 2007, 06:14 PM' post='77061'] Oh bugger - I've been rumbled. Although because of the postal strikes, I've yet to see my copy. Thanks Sean for the Trace combo. It sounds great and defo worth the return trip to Bristol to pick it up. I'll prob use it again on Friday night at the local pub. Watch out for the next issue which should feature another BC'er in the Weekend Warrior slot. I will keen his identity a mystery so as not to spoil the surprise. Good to hear you're all buying BGM. The more support it gets, the more it can grow. MB1. Are you saying thats not the full sized Stuart Clayton then?
  17. [quote name='martinbass7750' date='Oct 20 2007, 05:57 PM' post='77052'] no worries - I think I've visited all the dealers around gloucester during the last 3 years, aroundabout sound is definitely the best for bass. I popped in today, but they don't have any decent gig bags in stock, only entry level (which I already have). I'll keep watching davesaccessories on ebay. Thanks for all your replies. Cheers Martin MB1. Martin, wrong sort of bags,wrong sort of dealers mate........There was a joke there originally honest!
  18. [quote name='paul, the' date='Oct 19 2007, 08:07 PM' post='76709'] You paid for a Sei and it isn't good enough? MB1. Martin from The Bass Gallery has already issued a contract!.........Bring me the head of Johngh!

Caption: "Carbon fibre does wonders for my hair, no dead-spots, stays just the same rain or shine every time I take it out of its case..." MB1. Oh, to be on moonbase in the summertime, with my love!.
  20. MB1. I give up!.... is it a Trouser Press?
