I don’t have one. I ordered one straight away from Amazon obviously but I still think if it has a European mains it should say so on the ad, I would have got one prior. I know it’s unlike a musicians not to be knee deep in kettle leads but I just happen not to be right now.

Ordered a QSC K12.2 from Andertons yesterday afternoon around 1pm. DPD emailed to say it would be delivered today between 17:30-18-30 and at 17:35 it arrived. A nasty hole in the side of the box had me worried but luckily (especially as there was no padding inside the box whatsoever) I seem to have got away with it. Unfortunately it arrived with a European mains lead so I am unable to test the unit. I emailed Andertons straight away so we'll see how they respond but so far, very quick.

Welcome Dave. Opinions on the Aerodyne are mixed but I had one and it was lovely, light, glorious to play. By far the nicest Fender I've ever played. it would make a great bass to start on and they can often be picked up second hand. As @TheGreek says, the sires are also a great place to start.

Same happened to me I asked a mate for his genuine opinion of my band… Me: So, what did you think? Mate: Honestly? Me: Yeah, honestly. Mate: I'll answer the question. You want answers? Me: I think I'm entitled to them. Mate: You want answers?! Me: I want the truth! Mate: You can't handle the truth!

Although we’ve already ‘chatted’, welcome.

…and the worst squirrels have no nuts. That’s the world sorted in two ridiculous generalisations, anyone fancy a pint?

Oh yes, sorry, back on topic. Eleventy five.

There was a hollow body jazz on here a while back, I loved the look of it. I know, but I’ll be down to three Jabba basses soon so I’ll only have the SS ACG left to shift.

I am going to try and get Jabba to build me a solid body based on that bass. Only if cake is a suitable trade.

I’m out.

I love, love, love this bass. I may need to get details so I can commission one, from, er, someone.

I’m surprised the toilet isn’t in bits!

I think the original adverts for the Combo 300 read ‘Comes with extra lead.’

Give him the benefit of the doubt, perhaps he was 56 an hour ago and is having a good run.

Ah, see, I’m a back socket man, have been ever since I did National Service.

I tired of the interesting sockets on the back of my Peavey, it was like braille pornography, all the best bits were worn out.

I’ve had better relationships with some amps than with some previous girlfriends, none of them had such a variety of interesting sockets round the back.

Me too, it was these or a green Carlsbro back in the punk days.

Next time you rehearse ask him to turn his volume down to a reasonable level, don’t take no for an answer, explain your reasoning. When he refuses stick to your guns, just stick to them, he’s an unreasonable egoist bellend and nothing, but nothing, exposes idiots like reasonable reasoned requests. You’ll be home by eight and can start looking for a band who can actually work together democratically.

Paging @cetera…

I used to use Fender but every single one has gone on me! For that reason I moved to Designacable, Neutrik connectors, Van Damme cable and all sorts of lovely colours, not had any problem with them whatsoever and very easy to spot on a cluttered stage.
