Blimey. it's taken me ages to realise why it's called the 3620. 2x18 = 36 2x10=20 Senility must be creeping in

@Bill Fitzmaurice will be along any minute, providing he isnt already drunk, on his back, under the Christmas tree

Jack wasnt serious , peeps. Take a tablet In your own home, having a laugh , necking a few sherberts ... knock yourself out.

Nice bass ! Where's the rest of it ? Alcohol fuelled chainsaw accident ?

Was it routed by a Bononbo ? And to add .......... bleugh

This might be of some use, though he's cut off the video near the nut, but it can be worked out

Indeed , that is the problem with these covenient towers, i suppose

Makes me wonder about those new ( ish ) fangled tower PA's Yamaha Stagepas, EV Evolve 50 , Mark Audio Ergo etc etc. All sit their mid/tops on the sub on a pole. Did they all get it wrong ?

A much more reasonable 15% commission at the Bass Gallery. They're just not as greedy.

Me too. Slight mods to mine, but a great value bass

Active EMG's wont work for me. Their built in plugs and preamps would mean dumping my onboard preamp

The passive ones ?

I've read that passive Hz pickups are a bit meh, but read good reviews on the Nordstrand Big J blades

Yes it is. Just think ' dandruff '

Dont active EMG's have some kind of built in preamp already ?

I joined Bassworld / Basstalk , then Basschat, and when Finnbass took off, i joined there too. ( I joined Talkbass in 2004 before all of them but made the mistake of listing myself from the UK ) Finn was never a threat to Basschat, it was also run differently, and the characters were different. It was immensely humourus at times, rather loose , but ultimately i drifted away because i found it took too long to get answers to serious questions

Thinking of getting some J shape pickups, but with some specific requirements I hate single coil hum, who doesn't, so do they need to be humbucking ? Not looking for trad single coil Fender J sound either. I'd like subdued highs , as glassy brittle treble is not my thang. Smoother midrange, smoother low end. I believe ( rightly or wrongly ) that its easier to add growly mids with onboard / amp EQ to a smooth pickup, than to clean up a growly pickup. I have an onboard preamp, so would passives overload the input when combined with the onboard pre ? Or does it not matter , just turn down the amp gain if there's too much input ? Having said all that, what choices are there for me - recommend some names if you can. Cheers !

I never really got on with Chorus pedals, though i've tried a few over the years. They either rob the low or sound too much like a mild flanger or both I dont like the Choruses in my Zoom Multi. Then in a fit of oddness, i bought a Boss Dimension C DC2 . Weird thing, no knobs ( matron ) I couldnt lash out for a new one, as i wasnt sure i'd get on with it, so bought 2nd hand and a lot cheaper than new I really like it, as it can be subtle enough if required, which i do require.

He made a fairly decent ( by his standards ) solo album way back ( 461 Ocean Boulevard ) which i bought many decadaes ago, but i cant stand Cream or anything he's done My now ex GF bought us tickets back in 1994 to see Sheryl Crow at Shep's Bush ( not a euphemism, ) who was bluddy amazing by the way , and as a surprise for a couple of tracks, she wheeled on the old fart, who actually spoiled the show

We did that just before lockdown, New Years Eve gig 2019. Not the whole set but a couple of covers video'd ( Jamiraquai Bad Girls to name just 1 ) and the vids were shoved on the band's Faceache page and they're still there, along with more pre New Years eve gig vids. I dont know why they picked on yours but left ours up ?

On the other foot, you will be using a multitude of the venue's mains sockets. Is the venue covered for damage to your band's equipment if the 240v sockets go a bit awol ?

I accidently saw Clapton On Sea live at the Shepherd's Bush Empire in '94 Bleughhh

The bottom E is upside down, therefore it's just a right hander upside down, otherwise the bottom E would be at the top
