King Tut

I’ve got a passive Bubinga version. I love it but don’t gig it much. The top horn is maybe a couple of frets shorter than a fender and that pushes the neck out to the left. Not enough to make it uncomfortable like a thumb bass but enough to throw my orientation out if I’m not concentrating.

'I Believe It' from Saturday night at The Golden Age Festival in Liege. For once, a sound engineer who doesn't pull all the top out and swamp the sound with deep bass. This is the Sire V9 I recently withdrew from sale on here - glad I did!

Seems like I developed Superpowers at A New Day festival on Friday!

Quick postscript to this one - played at The Golden Age Festival yesterday in Liege. Used the same bass and fx through the house rig which was an SVT CL snd 8x10. I way preferred the sound I had the night before with the Bugera and Schroeder. Go figure!

Played ‘A New Day’ festival. Had a great slot as the penultimate band squeezed in between Jethro Tull and Ten Years After. I was using a new (to me) Schroeder 2 x 12 cab (1212L). It’s a tiny thing that I bought off here a couple of weeks ago. One of the drivers is angled off to the side. Was also the first gig for my Sire V9 which I’ve just withdrawn from sale. We’re travelling to a festival in Liege today and I didn’t want to risk my Rik at customs! Anyway, the Schroeder, driven by my Bugera 1001T absolutely blew me (and band mates) away. Incredibly loud and seems to defy the laws of physics, Nice n punchy too! overall, the sound was impeccable. We played a blinder and the crowd responded in spades. I think the Sire is gonna get some more exposure too. Really handy being able to tweak the tone from the bass rather than the amp and absolutely zero neck dive. Nice looker too! Happy colin!

I’ll be gigging mine in a couple of hours at the New Day festival. Been stuck on the bloody M25 for ages!

There’s three tubes in there iirc

What’s a tube roll?

I’ve just picked up a Bass Collection Jive Bass from this forum, They go for £545 new but you can get them much cheaper used obviously. It’s an absolute stunner - really well set up and a feel!

My AVRI 64 is exactly the same! I’ve used a paint pen to highlight the dots but seriously thinking about some luminlay markers, unless anyone else has some ideas that dont require drilling?

I purchased some pickups and a bridge from Vin. Communication was great and the the package was sent safely and promptly. Items as described and my Jazz now sounds much improved. Deal with confidence!

Looks great. I’ve done a couple of cabs in Tuff Cab. One of them gets loads of abuse in the back of our van and gigs. It’s not indestructible but it is really ‘Tuff’ and easy to touch up!

Yeah my clip broke off too - I glued it back on, but then i started using pouches. What i like about the ones you plug directly into your board and guitar though are one less cable ( and a spare) to mess about with and it makes guitar changes much easier. We do a lot of quick changeover multi band shows and the less you have to faff about with/lose/repack etc the better!

Is this the right room for an argument?!

I’ve used the Line 6 G30 for years now and it’s been pretty much faultless but not very convenient what with the pouch and extra lead. I’ve got an ‘Amoon’ set and these sound great but the latency builds up when using effects so only use these for home use now. Our two guitarists use an Xvive set without any problems so I’ve just picked one of those up. A bit disheartened to read on here about the poor battery life but it’s not like I’m out every weekend so we’ll just have to see how we go!

On my iPhone nothing there:

Well on the mobile version (ipad) I’m blowed if i can see an option to say what’s on my mind!
