Haven't been to download since 2006, but been to many other since then, As a punter and playing. Guess it's just a case of what you enjoy doing, or not in some cases. This year will be the 3rd time I play Bloodstock and around the 7th year I've attended and camped for the weekend, less broad than download so the mix of people isn't so bad, Last year i did Wacken in Germany which was cool and thankfully the weather was awesome, although they do things more efficiently there! I've done a shed load of smaller indie ones too, 3rd Year Amplified Festival is on this year and playing that, Call of the Wild in Lincolnshire just happened, that was reasonably ok. I love a bed and a clean porcelain bog, but aint nothing wrong with slumming it for a few days!

Cool so you can run both off the one head down to 2 ohms, Well, i'm no expert, what you will get is more air being pushed by more speakers so it will be "loud" as for voicing, there may be issues but you don't know until you do it. I'm sure speaker experts could add some insight into this. But from a safe power perspective there's no reason why you cant do it 🙂

Firstly that would be cool, but you need to check the impedance of the amp and the cabs, If they are both 4 ohms, the head to run both would need to run down to 2 ohms. unless your head has a line / power amp out, that way you could run one head into one cab and slave out into a power amp to run the second cab, something i have done in the past.

It's a Marmite bass, immensely beautiful, but didn't fit my sound nor band

Erm, I traded it for a Warwick Thumb. I am immensely happy

Thanks for all the responses. Yeah, after years of plugging a Jazz bass in an tweaking on the amps and pedals, to now have more sonic capabilities on the bass, it is a learning curve. this post probably sounded very amateur haha but there's basses and then there's Ric's. I do prefer to have everything set on the bass, I currently have both pup on full whack and tweak everything from there. Oh I totally get the Ric sound, play-ability wise it's one of the nicest basses to play too, so unless someone has a Thumb to trade 🤣 it's a keeper. @4000 thanks man, I've had many variations of sansamp over the years, settled finally on the Bddi V2 as it has the mid function amongst other things like footprint etc. @Lozz196 yeah man, The Ashdown it's very scooped or not, but had a play and did work better fiddling with those eq Pre-shape and has helped a lot. It's not that i wanted it to sound exactly like my Warwick, I think after having the same pick ups for years, it's a drastic change, anyway, I had a fiddle at my last gig. Pretty much a blend of what everyone has suggested here and was very pleased with it. It's just a wild beast to tame, so am I, pretty much unpleaseable when it comes to gear and tones haha, i'm getting there. thanks all

Hey guys, sorry if this is the wrong area, this is my first "help" post. So after years of playing my Warwick Corvette with EMG j set. I bought a Rickenbacker 4003s it plays amazing and ticks all the boxes but i just cannot get the sound i like. The pickups are loud and clear but I'm not sure if I'm just used to the nice mid fart of the jazz pickups but the Rick is just pure bass and treble, probably just me and i guess there is no way around this? (replacement pups etc). usually play via a sansamp BDDI v2 into either an Ashdown abm 600 or a power amp. Even with all the eq in the world i just cant get that mid range
