Done! A straight Trade. Bass for Bass. that´s it and here's my new Bass. Sadowsky M5-24 in 59 Burst with VTC. Mint, like new really and I have to say, I´ve never played such a fantastic Bass before. Sadowsky has earned his Reputation... Warm, fat, zingy, punchy....what you like, it will be delivered.

.....trade a MM Stingray 5 for a Sadowsky M5-24 if you could and wanted something new?

I´ve bought the Carvin LB75. These Pics are from the Seller. Will do some these Days, but "Burst" is difficult to get really good on Pics.. Sounds awesome and plays like a Dream. Very versatile.

AT the Moment I love my new Carvin LB75 that I´ve bought second Handed in Mint Condition. It came into my Interest just at the Day, my Father died in Hospital. So I bought it, to play it in Memory of him. The Trussrod Cover Plate will get engraved with his Name...

Using 2 AAs is much better than 9vs. That's the only thing that would sway me from the X2 I have though, as they sound very similar otherwise.[/quote] Practice Yesterday. We´ve played 2,5 Hours and the Batterys are still working. Can´t say how long they will last, but for me it´s long enough, because in our Gigs we play 2-3 Sets, so I can change Batterys between two Sets. No Problem at all.

I´ve got one more too... [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vb1Gm69mqz8"]The Reddings "Class"[/url]

I´ll add some... Quincy Jones "Stuff like that" [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jEPnBZSyeRY"]Funky Baby[/url]

I guess it was "Two Hearts" from Phil Collins. Original Bassline played by Leland Sklar. It´s Fun to play. Nice Walking Bass.

Digital Wireless got me.... Here´s a short Review. At First, let me say I´m impressed. As I said, when I come home the Parcel was waiting for me. The G30 is real "Plug & Play" nothing you have to adjust or something. Just connect the receiver to the Power Supply, wich is included of course. What I like is, that you can power the Receiver with a Daisy Chain Cable also, when it´s added to your Pedal Board. The Receiver is very light. You feel it´s Plastic. Line 6 says ist not just Plastic, it´s Polycarbonate, wich is more sturdy. Time will tell, but what will you do to, or with the Receiver? Nothing. You won´t step on it or something. Little green Led Chains informes you about the Transmitting Status/Quality/Level/Strenght and about the Battery Status. With one of the little silver Sliders you can select One of Six selectable Channels, with the other you can simmulate "Cable Tone" of a 15 or 30 Feet long Cable. Just have checked it very fast and it seems, that you loose some little Highs with Cable Tone, but you have to listen very exactly. The Bodypack Transmitter is also "Bonehead-Simple". Two Signal LEDs show you that you a.) got an Audio Signal and b.) about the Battery Status. You also got a little silver Slider to select one of the six Channels. The Transmitter requieres two AA Size Batteries or Akkus. What I like about the Bodypack Transmitter is, that you can use every Mono Patch Cable to connect the Transmitter to your Bass or Guitar. You don´t have a special and expencive Cable or need one to buy if you like one as a Backup. Just use a Patch Cable in good Quality and about 50cm Length. By the Way, the Cable wich is delivered with the System, is a little bit stiff. It´s not the one you see on the Picture below. Okay. So far so good. Plugged in my passive Fender 5-String Bass and the first Thing you notice is: It´s absolut deadly quiet. You hear absolute nothing, if you don´t play. It´s like playing with Cable and it sounds like playing with Cable. I can´t hear any Difference. Same Dynamics, same Signal Quality, same Output Level. I´ve checked and compared it 2-3 Times. I can´t hear any Difference. Really. Tone is as punchy, warm as played through Cable and also the Low B shows no Compression like it does, if you play with analogue UHF Systems. Then I went through my whole Appartement. From Living Room to Bedroom, Kitchen. Through 2-3 Walls. I still have had a Signal. No Drop Outs. Must be enough for every Stage we´re playing on. That´s my first Impression and I have to say: I like it. We´ve got Practice this Evening and of Course I will test it in our Bandroom too. But until now I lke to say: Recommended!!!

In the German Bass Boards like "Bassprofessor.de" or "Bassic.ch" are many Members who use this System since it´s available. The Reviews are all very positive. Very good Dynamic Range and no Difference in Sound compared to a Cable. But when I get home after Work today, it should be waiting for me.... I´ll test and review, but I only have passive Fender 5-String Basses to test...

I think I'll sit and wait for the reviews, I've been disappointed too many times.[/quote] Got the Relay G30 on Order. Will receive it tomorrow. If there´s somer Interest, I´ll write a short Review
