fleabag

Never got past the audition. I have a cat

My Superfly had the annoying digital clock whine, and on one channel, which was normal, if you got it. They didnt all have it though, so some of us were just unlucky They seemed to be a good idea, just poorly executed. I dont remember hearing any such problems with the 1000 model

I need to have my nose surgically reshaped

Geddy lee They must have heard my voice

That didnt take long ..QSC expensive 2nd hand only, but you never know.

I will probably avoid 10's due to the fact that no subs will be used. Havent looked at QSC yet, so i'm going to hunt around, but as with the other quality cabs, i guess the price will be beyond me, unlesss i get lucky with some used gear

JT, def. not going with subs. Someone has to carry them to gigs, and carrying 2 mains will already fill up my car, as of course i have other stuff as well. I'll certainly go for 15's as you suggested. I'm surprsied you didnt have any feedback on the EV range either ZLX or ELX. ( talk is ELX is better ) but of course if you have no expereince of them, it would make sense that you didnt mention them. I'll keep looking ..havent bought anything yet. If i want the quality AND 15's, i'm certain its going to be 2nd hand / used cabs. A bit of a worry i suppose as you never know how they've been treated. I'll never believe anyone that says " only bedroom use by my granny " type of ads

A few of our drummers spontanelously combusted, but i think thats normal

Start with Ebay , do a search of your model, and even if it comes up with zero, check as ped suggested There's ' completed listings ' and ' sold listings ' down the left hand side. You want ' sold listings ' , because the other option doesnt mean they sold, just that the auction ended without it being cancelled by the seller If Ebay comes up with quite a few sold listings of your bass, you need to be careful about the sale price. Make sure those that sold are in the same condition. For basses that sold too cheap, was the seller desperate for money ? Its hard to tell. Its just a guide, but if no sales come up, you'll just have to make your own price up. Go high, because you can always haggle down. You cannot do it in reverse

Noted, thanks lemmy. I may come across some at the right price, and that sort of info is very useful

Make that a bag of sleeves. They're de rigeur you know ! Quite right hubrad

Or some sleeves

There was an ad in JMB & Gumtree local, for a balding, talentless, one legged knob headed bass player with eff all charisma, zilch ability, sh*te gear, no pets, and a sister on the game. You know what happend next..

Maybe roll up an orange and eat your sleeves

..and relax

There's also the EV ELX 115 to consider, though again, gotta be 2nd hand, sadly

I was thinking about what JT said in that if we're throwing the kick through the mains, then the suggestion of 15's was mentioned. That kinda leaves out the RCF 310's Remember, we're not using subs The 735 are over budget unless 2nd hand, and i'm struggling to find used 735 on the market at under £700 for pair. Someone mentioned Mackie Thump 15's ( not on here ) but the word is they're cheap entry level. I would rather go better quality within budget AS it seems 15's are better if a kick drum is going thru 'em, i had a look at the DB Technologies Opera 915DX. Apparently ( i havent a clue myself ) that DB Tech is owned by RCF or they use RCF internals. I cant say, but i have seen some used ones for £725 ( a pair )

Would like to get away from subs, if possible. Another option ...DB Tech Opera 915 ( apparently something to do with RCF ) ?

Thanks for the advice guys Sadly, at 68lbs per cab x 4, not only are they too heavy for my poor old back, i doubt i'd fit them in my hatchback along with the other essentials. So much as i like the idea of them, on a practical level, they're not Other option, as you guys dont like the Mackie 450 V3 cabs, is the JBL PRX 612M. I guess they're not in the Martin league either, but i have to compromise

Yegods ! What is the controller for ? MInd you its a mighty long drive to pick them up.
