  1. S.f.s bump
  2. This is my back up bass and rarely gets played. I bought it 3 years ago from its original owner, who bought it brand new and never took up playing! It's a 1989 bb1100s. Superb condition, generally, there are a couple of small marks (see pictures). The only modification is a thumb rest has been added at some point. Plays as it should and active electrics all functional (Pair of rechargeable 9v batteries included) Either collection from lancashire, or I'll package ready for a buyers courier I think £590 is a fair price, including a tweed hard case) for this vintage Yamaha that's been gigged about 5 times and used at the occasional rehearsal. Cheers E
  3. To be honest I've got a Yamaha active bass and I tried it in the active and passive inputs ....it is louder through the passive .....but not what I was looking for...but...as described above my eq settings were probably "wonky" Hopefully
  4. It's an evo 600 mag with a silver front sparky....wish I could afford the other! I'll turn that bass down and tweak the mids up. Folks...thanks for all the advice...I'll report back on Thursday
  5. Doesnt help with an over enthusiastic guitarist constantly messing with his volume and bloody pedals!! This forums great though, glad I stumbled on it....some really informative posts
  6. It's the evo version, and I do tend to stand close to it.....Is that a schoolboy error?
  7. It's an evo 3 600 410 combo steve...I've got a lot to learn! (The v.u does still work though!!!!) Really appreciate the advice fellas!
  8. Even a matching ashdown one??
  9. Thanks for the advice....I'll go early pre rehearsal and play around with the e.q next week....band mates complimented the tone...I think I just expected more headroom as I was driving it hard and my initial theory was to get something more powerful that could not be nearly maxed...might get a 15 ext cab as they are cheap as chips 2nd hand.. Hope the above makes sense as I'm quite new to this!
  10. Thanks Gary....I'll hunt a cab down...And fiddle with the amp....why are these things so complicated!!
  11. Newbie here.....be gentle!!! I'm part of a four piece band that's about to embark on a few small pub gigs (small p.a ,instruments not Mic'd up,)..I had been using an old carlsbro 250watt 1x15 combo for rehearsals and a couple of gigs...but I felt it was only just powerful enough and thought I'd upgrade rather than play the old girl at full tilt. So, on impulse , I bought a second hand ashdown 410 600watt combo. First rehearsal last night and I must admit I was slightly underwhelmed by the output of the amp A couple of questions..any help appreciated I'm a bit naive on the gain,eq, compression and volume front....what are the best ways to maximize output? (we play old school punk so no real fancy effects required) Also...I notice from the amps spec it says output is 307w 8ohms 575w 8ohms Does that mean I will only get full output by adding an extension cabinet Bloody confused dot com! Thanks in advance....ian
