Bet that 2x10 combo sounds great.

Remember to: 1. Smile and look like you're enjoying it 2. Don't pull faces when you make a mistake or shoot a look when someone else does. (Punters won't notice the mistake but will notice you pointing it out) 3. Repeat no. 1

Love the tone and feel on 'Bigger Sound'.

Don't know much about those V-types. How does it sound against a drummer?

Very nice bass Luke. And is that you gigging Propaganda in Fleet?

You're getting some nice gigs there Kiwi!

Fender-heads will pay more for it when it's beaten up.

[quote name='bassninja' post='263936' date='Aug 17 2008, 01:26 PM']One bandmate not too happy with everyone else's sound, though. I'm considering either IEMs for him, or a bloody isolation booth, possibly in the car park.[/quote] We've all been in bands with a person like that!

Nice Ray. How does it sound through the yellow eyeball? And what about the Trace combo? I'm guessing the Mark Bass sound is a lot less coloured (ironically ).

Works out far cheaper & the leads go in the same box Jeff[/quote] Here's the link: [url="http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=36796&source=1&DOY=26m1"]http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?Module...=1&DOY=26m1[/url]

Painted headstocks. I like my collars and cuffs to match.

Nice work Jamie. Some great bass face going on there too.

Nice... I'm guessing you may have one or two Level 42 albums in the house.

Haha... It's got to you too. Since joining this site, I've swapped basses about 10 times and changed my amp rig three times. It's fun trying different stuff though.

A [i]Streamline[/i]? Really - have you lost it? Don't you mean a Stealth?

[quote name='Gamble' post='268221' date='Aug 22 2008, 11:47 PM']I know I've asked this before in another thread, but is the Cellar the shop about halfway along Denmark St on the opposite side to Vintage and Rare, with a blue front and a guitar shop next door with the same colours?[/quote] It's the one with "Bass Cellar" written in big letters above it and grumpy looking staff in it.

It's like two big eyeballs staring at you.

That's what I'm talking about. This is the rig you got ridiculouly cheap, am I right? Black pimple finish, suits you sir...

What you got then? I'm talking old school green break-your-back stuff like this bad boy: And this, my 1984 1110 combo. Serial no. 002. So old that it has toggle switches like a 60s car. Sounds great though:
