Nice lookin bass Neil I kinda like the look of this one [url="http://www.rondomusic.com/spj62vwh.html"]http://www.rondomusic.com/spj62vwh.html[/url] Add a couple o wizard pups, hipshot type A bridge and maybe one of the bound and blocked inlay necks they sell and i think it'd be a looker

how about some stars inlays or some moon ones ala PRS have on some of the guitars? or go with double inlays?

HOLY S##T this thing is loud and dirty with only one knob its not the most versatile pedal out there but find a setting you like and you wont change it, I had the knob at 9 o'clock and that suited me to a tee, really filthy, grinding sound with very little loss (if any) of low end also it interacted really well with the vol/tone and villex booster on my bass. If you like a filthy overdriven to verging on full on distortion sound they get my vote (not that that counts for much ) Can you tell i like it?

[quote name='badgerboy' post='102329' date='Dec 10 2007, 07:01 PM']Hello, I recently upgraded my old fender bass combo for a 300 watt warwick profet 3.2 head and a Hartke 4x10 transporter cab and was expecting to be blown away by the increase in power over my old 60 watt amp. However, after a few rehearsals i have come to the conclusion that the new rig seems to lack volume. Sound wise it seems a good combination, the head remain clear all the way up to 10. So either my equipment is faulty, which i dont think it is as it was all purchased new, or i underestimated how much power i would need in the head. So i have a few questions; 1. Are aluminum cones quieter than paper cones ? 2. would a 4 ohm cab be significantly louder than my 8 ohm cab or would a 500 watt head be a better investment ? 3. would an additional cab linked in series give me significantly more volume or just a fatter sound ? answers on a postman...[/quote] Hartke transporter cabs are rated at 8ohms if i mind right so you wont get the full 300w from your warwick head (more likely 185-200w @8ohms) I also read somewhere that warwick profets arent the loudest for their ratings. to answer your questions though IMO 1. dunno never tried harke cabs although they are on the to try list 2. a 4ohm cab will give you the full power from the head and would be a bit louder but so would a 500w head. 3. an adidtional 8ohm cab will give you the most out of your head and it should sound both fatter and a bit louder anyone feel free to correct me if am talkin rubbish

[quote name='matt_citizenbass' post='101908' date='Dec 9 2007, 09:07 PM']whats the hyperpak like? how dirty is it [/quote] The honest answer at the mo is i dont know It got delivered yesterday and I've been very hungover all day (works christmas night out last nite ) but i shall spill the beans when i get a chance to give it a whirl. Tayste has one of the newer ones with 2 knobs i'm sure he's the best man to ask about it

[attachment=4049:Board.jpg] Here is my board in progress Its my trace elliot am300 12's footswitch, a boss tu2 and a catalinbread hyperpak. I'm gonna add a chorus pedal dunno what one yet, a digitech BSW and an Effector13 2ADD if it ever gets here and possibly a good fuzz and phaser
