Guys..... just to say i've listed a Gotoh 201 in the for sale section £20 posted ATB Mark

Can't speak highly enough of Dave Wilson I've taken every bass of any significance I've ever owned (Alembic's, Sadowsky's Fodera's Custom Shop Fenders, GB's etc etc) to him to set up. He's building my 40th Birthday bass with such attention to detail you'd not believe (I really need to put a thread up on this) He's constructed a 62 P bass from the finest parts available (Lindy Custom wound pups etc) and it's the best P bass i've ever seen !! Dave's now actively building instruments to rival the likes of Sadowsky Valenti etc [url="http://www.dwilsonguitars.com/"]http://www.dwilsonguitars.com/[/url]

Chris[/quote] Some mate you are...... Awesome gig not exactly a sell out but it was a 500 capacity venue - Played our socks off then put them on our C*cks !!!! I have zero skin left on my fingers

I'd be well up for a Zappa Tribute !! (I know this isn't - Good luck with the search) THE ONLY guitarist I never get sick of listening to...... THE ONLY guitarist I would ever want to Turn up !! God Rest His Genius Soul (way Way more than a guitarist) Mark

Massive shout out to the one & only Warwichunt for lending me some gear for this one (Rather tasty Ltd Ed Stingray and his TF/Aggie Rig) The Black Market Venue 43, Hight St Warsop Nottingham NG20 0AB I know there's loads of chatters on here from Nottingham so get yourselves there ATB Mark

[quote name='uzzell' post='799844' date='Apr 8 2010, 02:43 PM']This album, like much of his stuff is over-rated. I dont doubt he is an OK bass player but his music leaves me feeling cold and bored.[/quote] How odd.....

another vote for wharfdale.... make decent practice amps too !

Not a great excercise in brand marketing this !! So you build a reputation over decades as a custom builder charging £2-£3k for a bass and you allow your brand to be diluted down like this.... If these basses are Tanglewood built instruments - designed by Chris, then shouldn't they be logo'd "Tanglewood by Overwater"

400 (Aguilar) Watts into a quality 410 like the GS will produce bucket loads of volume for most gig situations If it isn't enough..... take the other one as well ! I regularly used to take both 410's but only plug in the top 410 Unless you're playing stadiums (where most of the time you'd have IEM's anyway) you'll never need more than you'll have with this set up

[quote name='jsixties' post='755751' date='Feb 24 2010, 04:56 AM']Thanks guys! How do you see these GS410 in the 8 Ohm version? These ones are available just now in my dealer and I can pick up those cabinets at a slightly better price than the 4 Ohm ones. I know I get half of the power with the 4 Ohm cabs, but maybe the head works better and cooler that way and the sound will be the same... or better. Sorry for the bothering but any experience that slant the 8 Ohm GS410 over the 4 Ohm ones? I know I'm irritating but is a great investment just now for me.[/quote] I forsee a gig situation where a pair of 8ohm GS410's driven by a DB750 wouldn't be loud enough ! In reality the difference between a pair of 8ohm and a pair of 4 ohm wouldn't be that noticable give the power and headroom of the 750 at any 4 or 2 ohm. Arguably the 8ohm cabs will sound better due to more efficient cone damping at 8ohms Buy the 8ohm GS410's and live happily ever after
