  1. I agree @ped, it’s become an arms race, especially in terms of amplification
  2. TRBs are fabulous instruments 👍
  3. Two keys players in one band?
  4. Hi @MattW the cab is a tad over 24" wide, a tad over 24" tall, and 16" deep. I'l travelling north in the next couple of weeks so meet up would be an option I'm sure 👍
  5. I’m pretty confident that everyone who sold one of these regretted it pretty quickly 👍
  6. Two neutron stars 😂 i’ll get some measurements later today Matt, it’s a glorious piece of engineering but I also have two Mesa rigs and even I can’t justify that level of gear…. 🤔 And all joking aside, it’s not too weighty, a lot less than my Mesa Diesel 15 and head 👍
  7. Lovely 👍
  8. Ain’t that the truth 👍
  9. Really is worth investing in a set of metric and imperial hex/Allen keys, even a top quality kit of long keys in a good case won't be much more than the cost of the Fender tool (in fact a lot cheaper for example https://www.screwfix.com/p/magnusson-metric-imperial-hex-key-set-30-pieces/3305V?tc=EC5&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=21550393591&gbraid=0AAAAAD8IdPwPTrbujmZZ3pxHZxxUweXDB&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI9sKP6dD2kQMV4J2DBx2wPSjuEAQYASABEgLzufD_BwE), and that way when you come across a non-conventional size (e.g., Warmoth and Allparts necks, Badass bridges etc) you're covered 👍
  10. As new strings stretch the bridge can get pulled towards the neck, if so you'll need to pull it upright frequently, but once they settle down the bridge should be stable
  11. Not really playing this so up for sale again 👍
  12. Found some further spec on the head Power Output: 200W RMS Power Requirement: 230/115/100 V Frequency response: -3dB at 35Hz and 14 kHz Speaker Outputs: Speakon/Jack High Instrument Output: Impedance 1m Ohms, input range 25mV - 1.5V p-p Low Instrument Input: Impedance 100k Ohms, input range 25mV - 6V p-p Line Input: Impedance 100k Ohms, input level 0dBu nominal DI Output: 600 Ohms balanced, level 0dBu nominal Speaker Outputs: 1/4" jack connectors for 4 and 8 ohm speaker cab configurations. Effects Send: 1k Ohms, level 0dBu nominal Effects Return: 1M Ohms, input level 0dBu Nominal Pre-Amp Tubes: 1 x ECC83 1 x ECC82 Output Tubes: 1 x ECC83 4 x 6550 EQ: Fully Passive Middle, Bass, Treble, Mid Shift, Bass Shift, Bright Mute: Mute the output of the amplifier (useful when tuning) VU Meter: Visual indication of the output level of the LB-30
  13. So I had a quick play with my damaged bass. At present to hear anything with any degree of clarity through the embryonic sound hole requires that my ears are quite a lot close than is convenient. Having said that, the tone when I could hear it was rather nice, which makes me wonder not only about a soundhole for monitoring but also possible for micing. Anyway, gonna call the luthier over the weekend and get a design agreed, I'll update as soon as done 👍
  14. Biggest challenge is going to be where you put the battery I suspect, PBasses are not an easy ask for off the shelf preamps
  15. I’ve five pairs of headphones all of which have strengths and weakness and none of which are in any real way better than any of the others. Same with hifi speakers (four sets) 🤔
  16. The Precision Bass of bass amps. Just work in every setting 👍
  17. Refin in solid colour over the varnish?
  18. Won't let me play which is odd. Says I have to sign in which I've never done before., is this adult fretless content 🤣 Quite relieved really as a) Ped'll just be another bloke who plays FL better than me and b) I'll have short-scale FL GAS
  19. I'm also going to be stripping this soon (think it's also walnut), although it appears to be a very thin finish luckily. There is virtually no grain to speak of but I hope to bring out what's there as much as possible before finishing 👍
  20. I'm going to open up my hole a little (Stop Sniggering Nicole), and using a similar test get a feel for the sound, and perhaps understand what design I might need for mine. I'll update, I might even A-B playing some bluegrass root-fifths on guts in A and a little bit of Jazz on some steels for B 👍
