Buona sera oZZma

^^ Didn't think about effects - great suggestion.

Just a word of caution ⚠ : Some will tell you that you need some sort of new bass: eg. 7 3/4 string with a body made from The One True Cross, a fretboard of pure Sonicperfectionwood, diamond strings with a wiring loom & pickups designed by Einstein with hardware made from metal melted down from the casing of the Manhattan Project atomic bomb. And then blessed by The Pope. You don't need any of this.

In my (very) humble opinion, the gear that you mention is all decent quality. It depends on what sort of gigs you want to be playing. From my point of view, the basses sound fine - providing that you're comfortable with them. I would look at your amplification - possibly something in the 250/300 watts area, posdibly something like this: https://www.tcelectronic.com/Categories/Tcelectronic/Bass/Combo-Amplifiers/BG250-115/p/P0BRL#googtrans(en|en) or something of similar power. Another route could be an amplifier head & separate cabs, again of similar wattage. I have mainly used an Ashdown MAG250 or Eden WT264 head with an Ashdown ABM-115 mini, and if I needed more, an added Trace Elliott 2103h cab. If you like your basses, keep them. I'm sure other more experienced Basschatistas (?) will be along shortly with their views.

*Live music is entertainment...unless it's jazz

Sounds like you aced it though. Live music is entertainment, and that's what you delivered. Nice one

@Dad3353Bloody drummers

Exactly this. Although there was the occasion with a different band when the guitarists capo'd - I was totally screwed. My brain don't think that fast

Thats amazing! All the best!

Nice one fella
