    Just got the package, thanks. I'll install it over the weekend, let you know how it goes. Many thanks!

    Hi, found this thread. Would you be able to do a custom loom? I'm going to wire some new pickups into my Jazz but I've heard great things about having a series/parallel push/pull pot. Would this be something you could do? If so, how much. Many thanks!

    I'd like to recommend Jeff Beers of Zero One guitars in West Wales. He did an amazing job of sorting out issues on my Gibson SG and was brutally honest about a bass I took to him - he showed me all the problems with it and suggested I sell it for parts, doing himself out of some work in the process. The SG came back like a new instrument, I can't recommend him enough. Lovely guy, very talented and incredible eye for detail. https://www.facebook.com/pages/category/Local-Business/ZERO-ONE-Guitars-393710820789091/

    Um... after quite a lot of whiskey when you'd eat anything? Joke!

    I have this EXACT same bass in red. Same era (mine's an '88), 2EQ, maple neck. Best instrument I've ever had. Whoever buys this will be very lucky...

    Yes, this is all true and... in fact... with a bit of eq tweaking I can get the sound better. I just normally don't use the EQ much at all, I find I never need it really.

    Very, very good points. My MuiscMan Stingray is generally pretty okay - it records really well DI'd straight into a desk, done it plenty of times. However... I've recently put LaBelles on it and they sound a bit odd to my ears. Not good, not bad, just different to the cheap flats I had on before. Sort of "sticky" but I suspect they will bed in over time. Maybe it's the combination of strings, bass, amp and cab that's not working. It really doesn't matter, frankly, it's perfectly fine for my needs as in I just need to be able to hear it loud enough to practise, but it's not often I've been so surprised at how much I DON'T like a cab. I'm not usually that bothered!

    And yet some people get really good results out of PA speakers - there's a lot of love for the RCF 732-A in this thread.

    Here you go. It's hard to describe what's wrong with it, it's just lacking in richness. It makes my bass sound unpleasant and makes me not want to play it. It's amazing that a £260 GK 2x10 sounds so much nicer, though it's about 30 years younger so the technology's moved on.

    Yeah, I don't think these are up to RCF standards!

    Sorry, looked again and it's HiSys... I'll take a pic.

    Hi. What's the score with postage? Or are you looking for a local collection? Cheers!
  14. kwmlondon
    Indeed. This is fine for practise and has saved me the hassle of transporting my cab but it's been very interesting to try. The Peavey HiSys is, after all, a 30 year old cab though still has a BW in it.
  15. kwmlondon
    Very interesting
  16. kwmlondon
    Yep. Well, it's good to experiment and if I'd never tried I'd never know. Also - didn't have to take a bass cab 250 miles so that's saved some hassle!

    Morning All, I'm away from home at the moment, staying with my folks for a few weeks and I've got my bass with me. Rather than bring my cab (a cheap but good GK CX210) I thought I'd plug my amp (Little Mark III) into one of my dad's PA speaker - a Peavey Eurosys 15" thing. It's fine, I'm just using it for practise and it does the job but... IT SOUNDS TERRIBLE! I can't believe something that big has such a crap tone and how good my GK cab is by comparison. You could certainly gig with it, but it just seems to have an unpleasant low end and makes the bass sound rubbish . Anyway - just thought I'd share...

    Hi. Is this still for sale? Looks like it was posted ages ago...
