I think you are correct in that your band is too loud. I gigged a Rumble 500 in quite large pubs with a loud drummer and 2 Marshall valve numpties and it was always loud enough.

Apparently the cheapest tickets are $300. But they seem to be selling.

Just bought a pedal from Lozz, as new and fast delivery, highly recommended! Thanks mate.

Having owned multiple tone shaping di`s over the years, I actually prefer the Behringer to the Sansamp. Cheap as chips and sounds good for what I want it to do.

Looks brand new Jerry....did you gig it?

Once at MacSorleys with the now gone Markbass 4 x 10. 

I had this up a couple of weeks back and withdrew it but I`m not going to use it as I sold the cab I was using with it so back up it goes.

I use a mob called Banana Print. You can design your own and save it. They look great, very good prices and super fast delivery. Ordered Sunday and delivered Wednesday.

Sire Marcus Miller Z7 4 String Bass in Natural for sale only. Had this up a few weeks ago but it`s not going to get used so just seeing if there is any interest at the new price. As I have no box it`s collection from Paisley or meet up.

Here is a Sire Marcus Miller Musicman Stingray style bass for sale only. In exc condition it features a Sire Heritage 3 eq with a mid frequency control as well as bass, treble and mid control, it also has a passive option, tone control, 18 volt pre and blend control. MM style humbucking and J style pickups, through body stringing bridge, roasted maple neck with rolled fingerboard edges, ash body so it weighs 5 kg or 11 lbs. A very versatile bass especially for the price, it cost me £565 a few months back. Collection from Paisley only where you can try it out or meet up within reason.

Fell out with many usually lead guitarist`s who think they run the show. Guess what, they don`t!!

Yamaha BB1100s for sale only. I bought this last year, it`s a made in Taiwan model and in good nick these are going for £400 plus but this has a few issues. 

The body has some dings as in the photo`s and a weird scuff just in front of the bridge. The 3 way pickup selector switch is worn, it works fine in Jazz or P but wont stay in the middle position to select both pickups. The active/passive circuit works fine.

The G tuning peg has an issue, @AndyTravis I think it was? spoke about it in the BB topic in the Bass Guitars section. When you tune the G up the peg actually moves up as you can see in the photo. Can`t remember the fix but I think you need a small rare as rocking horse poo spanner to sort? Or another tuner.

Weight is 4.1 kg or 9 lb`s. I will replace the strap pins back to the originals. It has a replacement Gotoh bridge. Collection from Paisley preferred but I have a Andertons double box in the work that I can put it in but you can sort out postage. If thinking of buying please be aware of the above issues.

At the price point it can be a bit hit and miss but had a Sonic and it was a decent bass. 

T REX Fuel Tank Junior 9volt power supply, comes with 5 pedal power cables and mains cable. Paypal f&f or bank transfer.

MXR DI + for sale only. Great solid unit in vgc, velcro on the bottom, runs off 9v battery if req, original box. Paypal f&f or bank transfer.

Fender Player scratch plate, it`s from a player 2 but it`s the same size as the player, vgc, plastic still on it, collection from Paisley only or local meet up.

 TC Spectracomp, vgc, no box, velcro on bottom, £50 posted UK. Will knock off postage cost if collected. Not looking for trades.

John made me a lovely Jazz loom, a quality bit of kit as per usual and super fast delivery. Thanks!

Ouch, that's heavy.

I have a Z7-5 and a Z3-5, at 9.5 and 9.2 lbs, which is very decent for 5 strings 

I would order one of the alder body Z7`s if I could be sure of the weight but in the meantime I have ordered a new strap from Pinegrove leather to see if that helps. I hope so as I really like the bass, the spec for the price is outstanding.

The P6 series is looking tempting, but the Z series are far too heavy.

Spot on. My Z7 with the ash body is 11.2 lbs and on a 2 hour gig it`s just too heavy. Pity too as I love everything else about it.

We used the Pirate studio in Kinning park Glasgow once. When we went in the smell of cannabis was overpowering and we later heard that some folk rent a room for hours, take in dj equipment and get off their heads. Never again!

I recently bought a Laney Digbeth 500 head and it`s damm sexy  Sounds good as well. I also bought a Markbass MB58R 4 X 10 cab. I don`t know if I`m digging the usual MB look but at 16 kg for a 4 x 10 I`m willing to try.
