[quote name='Beedster' timestamp='1455628698' post='2980822'] Despite this [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/277583-83-wal-mk-1-for-under-l2000-anyone-sold-sorry/page__fromsearch__1"]http://basschat.co.u...__fromsearch__1[/url] it give me great pleasure to be able to report that the mongrel is back where it belongs. And many thanks to Alex for being such a gent about it also! [/quote] Chris, have you ever met Clarky (late of this parish)? I feel that you'd have much in common ...

I'd advise not. It's a DI Out jack, so run it into a DI box and then take a mic-level feed from the DI box into the H2.

Magic smoke is invisible ...

That Noble looks incredibly good. All I need now is a successful career as a pro session bassist in LA to justify buying it ...

[quote name='lojo' timestamp='1455517502' post='2979682'] I remember Brookside & Bread where always on tv when I was younger , they never made one reference to the Beatles , at least that I remember . How unrealistic [/quote] The Liver Birds too ... Yeh. And Boys From The Blackstuff ... Yeh Yeh. Not to mention Z-Cars ... Yeh Yeh Yeh. And

PM'd.

Pretty sure I've got one, Tom & Will, quite nice. Haven't cleared out that cupboard in a while. No interest at all in trying to post it though. You likely to be in London any time soon?

Hmmmm ... I thought the video editing was about the best thing about it. Reminds me of those [i][b]Best Smooth Jazz Ever[/b][/i] compilations you used to see in Woolworths. And if you're going to get Andrew Gouche in, and I bet he ain't cheap, why not put him a little higher in the mix?

[quote name='Jabba_the_gut' timestamp='1454448167' post='2969921'] Quite agree regarding the Chinese hardware - I've found this to be a lottery. [/quote] I find all this sort of craftsman stuff is a lottery ... when I try this stuff, it costs me money and I never seem to win anything. On the other hand, watching someone else doing it properly (like here) is hugely rewarding.

That thumbrest idea is really very neat.

Gnat's Chuff - a unit of technical measurement applicable to nut files. Distortion - how a guitarist views his own talent. Injection of energy - acceleration by the drummer Dynamics - accidental omission of a solo, leading to a sharp reduction in volume for an instrumental verse Green Room - Gents toilet unredecorated since 1897, where all the copper and brass is buried in verdigris

I've got a 4" titanium pin in my left ankle. Does that help at all?

In truth, £400 strikes me as high. You can buy a perfectly acceptable starter DB for that price, and you'll know that you can either rely on it or get a full refund. A seriously battered bass with known issues, work needing doing, and in need of new strings? £250 tops, and that's only because it comes with inherent mojo.

[quote name='Kiwi' timestamp='1453542136' post='2960368'] Going to be a bit of a walk for me this year. [/quote] Have you considered starting with a single step?

As a newcomer to this thread and with far too little spare time to read 550 posts on what is apparently a one-off design for a small bass speaker cab, can anyone offer a brief digest, ideally less than 3000 words?

When riding my bike, the LAST thing I want is a slapper ...

Success has many fathers ...

Thanks Dave. Following the same advice that I gather Clarky gave you, I've now ordered a cello gigbag for it.
