Try [url="http://loudspeaker.co.uk"]loudspeaker.co.uk[/url] but it might be cheaper to get a new cab.

No point trying to butter me up now. I'm so hurt, I'm taking it down the dump.

Can I still bring a trestle table and my car boot sale stuff from the garage?

Might look/sound a bit strange if you stick a non-matching one in there.

Adding in my L2000 Tribute.... [attachment=12819:L2000Front.jpg] [attachment=12820:L2000FullLength.jpg] [attachment=12821:L2000BridgePups.jpg]

I'm a lefty who does righty too. I also know a lefty guitard who plays a LH guitar but strung right-handed (i.e. upside down). How weird's that?

That'll be your 5-string blowing it up. Taken it apart and seen what the drivers are? You might struggle to get a direct replacement - although it is a current model. Maybe worth giving their distributors Sound Tech a call.

Silverfoxnik - what have you started here. It's like a runaway steamroller.

Guess what? It sounded sh!te...

Only trade I think.

[quote name='silverfoxnik' post='273617' date='Aug 31 2008, 11:45 AM']Ashdown amps & cabs; wooly sound, pointless retro design, not easy to get a decent sound out of and definitely a case of 'style over substance'.[/quote] With you there. Sorry Ashdown lovers but I've plugged into both high-end and low-end stuff and couldn't get a sound I liked out of either. And Mark Bass amps. They may be small, light and powerful but they look [i]awful[/i]. /runs from lynch mob. Edit: oh, and quilted maple tops. They look lovely on guit*rs but always look like stone cladding on basses.

Loving that all-graphite Series 2000.

[quote name='crez5150' post='272411' date='Aug 29 2008, 11:50 AM']If anyone's interested there is a 4 page interview with Mr King in this months Performing musician mag.[/quote] What a terrible interview! The guy's got 10 minutes or whatever with MK at his rehearsal room, for a magazine about live sound/performing live and he asks him about Level 42 back in the 80s. Questions like: 'talk us through your live set-up' and 'how do you get a good bass sound on stage' might have been better questions. Anything rather than: "Why did the band split up...' Edit: quite a good little mag though, never read it before.

Can someone tell me if it will take 1/4 jack plugs and speakons? Can you get a cable that is Speakon one end and jack the other? Thanks [/quote] Drop OBBM a line.

I've sold two basses recently, it was cathartic. ...then I bought two amps and a graphite neck. I blame the internet.
