Just found a MXR Distortion + on YouTube which sounds great for what I need 😊👍

Hi. I play in a classic Punk band and I currently use an Ampeg pre amp which I love into a TC Electronic Nova Drive for Overdrive and the odd song with distortion. I'm wanting to get separate pedals so I'm going to get an Ampeg Scrambler for overdrive but need help with choosing a distortion pedal that's not gonna give me overkill and that's also not gonna break the bank. I've tried a Big Muff & Dark glass but they just seem to be too much......Thanks in advance

Bought on Amazon👍

I use an Ampeg Classic Analog Bass Preamp Pedal which is great and a TC Electronic Nova Drive which has both overdrive and distortion and this also works well...... I will have a play with the 18" cab and see how it sounds

I play in a classic punk band as was looking for that "A bomb on Wardour street" tone...... It's not the end of the world if it doesn't work. I'm more bothered about popping the 100w speaker to be fair

Thanks ever so much for your help

8ohm - 200watt

Hi you lot I have a Aguilar TH500 that I run into 2 TC Electronic RS112's (200watt 8ohm) and it sounds well I've been given an 18" bass cab fitted with a 16ohm, 100watt speaker If I ran the TH500 into the 18" cab and also 1 RS112 (Parallel) what would be the outcome? Am I going to be running the volume on the amp higher to get less volume output at the speakers and would the 100w speaker be in danger of being blown? Thanks in advance 😊

Barnes & Mullins. Just search Hofner spare parts. They have the lot 👍😊

Hi all I have a 10 year old HTC 500/1 and I’m after advice as to if the German strip tuners shown in the pics will fit it I guess it’s the distance between the two tuner holes mainly and I’m assuming at this point that the ferrels will fit 🤷‍♂️😊 Thanks in advance for any help Mike

I love my "Ronnie".... It's ace 👍😂

Hi I've had and own Fenders, Ricky's and Hofners ect and in July went watching Generation Sex at The Apollo in Manchester and was blown away and curious about what their bass player was playing My post is below (Plus 2 pic's) and you will see the reactions from folk............ Mine was £129 plus a few mods but I'm still gigging it because its light, plays bang on and if it gets nicked or damaged then it's not the end of the world! Mines nicknamed "Ronnie" for obvious reasons

Mint this

Gone with Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounders. I have a Nate Mendel and just found out this is what is fitted on that bass and it sounds ace

Hi all I have a bass that is a PJ layout and each pick up has it's own volume and tone adjustment I've ordered a new custom wiring kit (James home of tone) for the controls ect and I'm just about to add new Seymour Duncan quarter pounders to both the neck and bridge positions Once I've fitted this lot I'm after a little help to guide me in the right direction to adjust the pick up heights to an optimum height I know that many people will have different views but please let me have your thoughts on this subject Thanks in advance Mike

Need some help. I play in an 80’s band and wait for it… A punk band. I’ve found a set of Seymour Duncan neck and bridge pickups along with an Aguilar set so which one do I buy 🤔😊👍

Gigged with my "Ronnie" twice now and I love it! ...... Sounds ace too The great news is that if it got nicked it's not the end of the world

It's Ronnie O'Sullivan the snooker player

All finished now so I'm just gonna get on with gigging it until I'm missing my Ricky again.... Thanks for everybody's input and if you want a bit of fun then get one bought!!!! Gear4Music actually have a few of these at £113.00 which are clearly returns but just mad value for money.... Cheers Mike

If it's glued on like mine he's no chance lol. I wonder if he's chosen it or it's been given too him

Thanks Lozz

Just had confirmation from Tony this morning..... Pretty cool this and this £129 is out or was out on a European tour that included many festivals including Glastonbury!!!! Get one bought guys

It is a Gear4Music Chicago long scale and the Ronnie O'Sullivan face pic is covering up the logo. I've bought one and as cheap as it it it's actually great! I gigged with it on Friday and left my Ricky in it's case...... It sounded mint
