[quote name='mcnach' timestamp='1496134110' post='3308939'] well, I love it I find the bassline very cool. And when you play it in a full venue and people sings it back (I used to play in a RHCP tribute band for a few years) made my arm hairs stand up... [/quote] ........... but not your third sock I hope! :-)

A good griend of mine has a Bergantino 2x12 and that is awesome. I have been tempted, even as a die-hard 15's man.

Really pleased for you. Congratulations.

[quote name='blue' timestamp='1495830560' post='3306991'] It's why I always ask "how many gigs has the band played in the last 8 months prior to considering joining a band. Blue [/quote] Good job Bill Wyman was less insistent. :-)

Left a band becaue I didn't like the way the (female) singer was treated. She was replaced and I walked at the same time.

None at all. We're not a super loud band so it all worked brilliantly.

Our side fills are Alto TX10s and they do the job perfectly. The drummer's one is, indeed, on a short speaker stand so he and I can hear the vocals etc. Works brilliantly.

That's what we have done on many occasions. We have a singer to one side of the stage and so we have a sidefill over the other side and one at the back next to the drummer with the singer getting a combination of the two and the drummer having the luxury of hearing what's going on!

[quote name='AdamWoodBass' timestamp='1495714309' post='3306074'] From what you've said you've pretty much covered all reasonable bases, if it is stolen I can't see how the original owner could prove it's actually theirs unless they've marked it with smart water or something. As a side note, very decent of you to go to the lengths you have in case it might be stolen. Plenty of people wouldn't give it a second thought. [/quote] I was thinking the very same thing. You have done very much more than is reasonable to check its history.

Sold an Aerodyne Precision to Douglas. Good comms and instant payment and he arranged for the courier to collect the bass from my home. Good guy to deal with. Enjoy that instrument.

I also think that, in the UK, our distances are much less on the whole. I suspect, as stated, it didn't really occur to anyone.

I should also add to mine - no guitarists wearing a hat. They are all invariably awful. SRV is dead, get over it. He was better than you and played like that 30 years ago!

[quote name='Chiliwailer' timestamp='1495699270' post='3305895'] Same here with my 66P [/quote] Mine too. I have never played a better Precision than mine. Looks like 66 was the year!

1. Nice guys. 2. Great drummer. 3. Great music 4. Professional outlook.

Sold Nick my Boogie 2x15. Great comms and very pleasant guy to deal with. Deal with confidence, as they say. Steve

Great news. Hope I get to do the same tonight. Park up, load in and off for a dosa at a great little place a few minutes away.

I'm playing there tomorrow night! They have a pa of sorts. It's rudimentary but adequate for the size of gig. Odd room in some ways but a good atmosphere - very little room to set up in though! Parking is a huge nightmare.

Top hat case with the amp on top of the 'top' so it'll be pretty much the same height as if it were on top of one of the cabs?

Never do such a gig without an RCB plug. I did a soundcheck at such a gig once and all was well. Realised I hadn't plugged in my RCD plug and it tripped immediately it was plugged in. Turned out there was no earth.

Very good price for an excellent instrument. I have 4 of these and they are all superb.

Yes thanks Phil, that's a huge help. Thank you for your efforts and thanks, again, to everyone else for your input.

Indeed. We are after best bang for buck on a limited budget and are playing places where there is likely to be a PA so there's little point going too mad. I am inclined to the TS215's because they seem to ahead in this market spot but am interested in any other options. Thanks again for all input.

Yes. Our keyboard player has a 12 and a 10 in that series and the sound is wonderfully crystal clear. I did have a TX15 as a monitor but will part with that and get a 10 as that does the job perfectly.
