Played the marvellous festival at Wokingham last night, with the Phil Collins tribute , Second to last band slot which suited us i thought. Fantastic atmosphere and audience, very well organised do. Bit hectic changeovers but aren’t they always at this type of gig. Very enjoyable. We’ve played it before and apparently are already booked for 2026. The weather threatened to get really quite bad by thankfully held off generally. Great stuff indeed! X

Yes, IF I use both then stacked all the times so far, though I will try them side by side at some point. Generally one is enough for petty loud pub gigs I find. The taste control I normally set about 10 ‘o clock. If it’s an out and out rock gig i sometimes use a shuttle 9.2 or my streamliner. . Was thinking of upgrading to an Eich but people say there isn’t much difference, so if it ain’t broke don’t fix it type thingy with me at the moment! Very pleased with my set up,it’s doing all i need it to do extremely well 😊

I use a puma 900 with my 2x monza cabs, i doubt you’ll be disappointed! Enjoy my friend! 😊😊x

USA musicman Sterling prehaps? Narrow and shallow necks. Lovely little things x 😊

Used to run that same rig, very very nice, the puma’s are absolutely awesome little units, and of course the BT ain’t too shabby either! Enjoy 😊x

I sold and posted an Alembic Clarke deluxe to a guy in Corsica.I originally stated in the for sale post that I WOULD NOT ship internationally and U.K. sale only. The Corsican guy obviously really wanted the bass so i reluctantly allowed myself to be persuaded to go ahead.No money had changed hands at this stage, just a gentlemans agreement if you like. I then was contacted by someone here in the U.K. who said he would have it. I must admit to being very very tempted but in the end i decided to honour the original request and sent it to Corsica. After a few very anxious days the bass arrived there via a brilliant FedEx service ahead of schedule. All turned out good in the end! Thank f*** x 🤣

Hey Gary, thank you for making me feel so much better! I will never worry about my 15 being too many again, you should write a self help book for us bass heads x 😊

Alembic Stanley Clarke deluxe, brought on eBay about 15 years ago for £2800, sold in 2020 for £5250 inc postage ( still think I sold it too cheap) but hey ho. status empathy 4 brought from bass direct for £850 I think, sold it for £450 which was way too cheap but wanted to get shot of it. Swings and roundabouts I guess 🤣x

Swamp music does it for me 😊

Love him or hate him, the bloke was a musical genius in my book.from songwriting to arranging to an amazing entertainer. A little strange prehaps, but when you live your entire life in the public gaze i think anyone of us might be. An immense talent, sadly no more 🫤x

Yes, try try try as many as you possibly can, the right one will choose itself for you i think. Good luck with your quest x

I’m from 1968, and I’m definitely not a fender man and nothing from that era particularly appeals so I doubt it’ll ever happen for me 🤣x

Stepped in for a couple of gigs in Bognor last Friday/saturday. Set list sent couple of days before, pretty straightforward stuff really but they didn’t tell me they played hotel California and tainted love in different keys which obviously threw me for first couple of bars , but hey ho! We got there. Both venues very quiet but job done and band was asked back and everyone happy. 😊

Yes, very classy little cabs for sure, amazing for a 1x10. Really enjoying mine and glad you are too! 😊x

That’s f***king out of order! The bastards! 😡

I’m so sorry for your loss, that’s absolutely awful for you, my deepest condolences to you xx

My sentiments exactly… best album for me too.🐗

I think our friend Cheinmortbb on here makes professional cables to order, if this helps?

Yes I saw that (your) ad and I too couldn’t believe the comments! There’s some absolute toss pots out there . I really feel for you mate. No need for all the rudeness at all. Pull the ad on there and just keep it on here.Most people in this world are reasonable and kind, but it is upsetting sometimes. best wishes to you and good luck with things x jeff

Of course it’s each to his own, but personally yes, I’ll call Andy partridge a genius any day. X

Certainly a very talented man in the genre
