I've been happy with the wizard trad in my Limelight, virtually identical in sound to my mates 72 P.

[quote name='Mornats' timestamp='1420128830' post='2645887'] I now have GAS for a Zygote! [/quote] Yes, off topic, but me too - would like to know more about them if any owners can chip in?

My Limelight last night, best colour combo and sounded awesome ...the player w as a bit dodgy though

Not any experience of the 500 but love my LMT 800...very versatile in sound, i'd go for the 800W as you still get 500W if using an 8ohm cab...350W from the 500 amp may be a struggle for larger gigs if you want headroom.

My functions band is getting £150 each (x7)..and as i said previously, a meal and free bar too...seems reasonable...although its bloody cold on Dartmoor at the moment so most importantly I do hope they have heating in the marquee.

[quote name='Bassnut62' timestamp='1419973100' post='2644553'] bass is using MuTron and Octave....sounds spot on. I guess any envolope filter combined with a smooth octaver would sound pretty close [/quote] Cool, cheers for that...i've got a Zoom B3 so i'm hopeful i can get something out of that

[quote name='gapiro' timestamp='1419967656' post='2644469'] Let us know how Uptown funk goes - its on our setlist for next gig. Still having fun trying to get a perfect sound for the bass. [/quote] We're considering this...what effect you using on the bass...if any ?

I shall be with my functions band 'Jessica & The Rabbits' playing in a marquee outside a nice rural pub out towards Dartmoor, Devon. Goodish pay, any meal of their menu for the band at the start of the night (steaks all round) and free bar for the band...quite looking forward to it.

Coincidentally I've been listening to 'Arboresence' today 😀

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1419366326' post='2639269'] That would look amazing, especially if you fitted a parchment or mint pickguard to go with it. [/quote] Agreed...i'd leave out the tort this time round x

[quote name='HowieBass' timestamp='1419365873' post='2639261'] Are you sure about the Stinger? The website still looks active (with a note about Christmas shutdown) [url="http://www.probass.co.uk/StingerEQ.html"]http://www.probass.c.../StingerEQ.html[/url] [/quote] Ah thanks for that, I only followed an eBay link

I've made a purchase (Thomann) !!!! surprisingly I've opted for the trans red as there is a big red theme in one of the bands i play in...plus my 5yr old told me red It has a rosewood neck so i'd swap it out for a maple if anyone feels that way inclined. Will update when it arrives....in the mean time i want a decent preamp for it, I see the retrovibe Stingers are no longer for sale...any pointers ?
