[quote name='casapete' timestamp='1463270111' post='3050126'] ... an awful lot of pro players with road crew still favour heavy valve/ big cab rigs? Just sayin.... [/quote]

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1463305839' post='3050272'] Who does? [/quote] Quite so. At first I thought it must be an interview with me.

[quote name='dannybuoy' timestamp='1463243582' post='3049912'] That's the same one this thread is about unless there are any others on the site I can't see? [/quote] Yes, of course it's the same one. But a different set of pictures because the thread has in part been about the difficulty of capturing the colour accurately.

The colour appears so variable I have no idea whether I like it or not.

Proper gutted.

[quote name='Kex' timestamp='1463212601' post='3049512'] Weight. Thats what I am taking about, when I started playing back in the late 1970s (yep, really am that ancient) bass stacks were big and heavy. We had two transits to lug around our equipment, the PA alone took two men just to move each cab, and there were six of them. My amp was a 4 x 10 Trace Elliot combo, at the time relatively small compared to other people 8 x 12 Marshall stacks, but it was still heavy. Very heavy, I know because until last month I still owned it. Until recent;y i had never even considered the weight of a Bass, it was what it was, yet now I keep seeing 'how much does it weigh' in replies to adverts - OK, i am sure there are some people who have back / medical issues, but not that many surely! Same with equipment, number if times I have seen people with small lightweight cabs kidding themselves that that 8mm chipboard ply is going to produce the same sound as 15mm marine plywood is amazing. Go and try and lift up a professional full range B&W studio monitor, or even a high end home hifi, its massively heavy and there is a reason for that. So, whats with the weight thing, have we all become wimps [/quote] In my experience, the 1970s was heavy unreliable equipment, that did not sound good, transported in a six-wheel Transit and a large estate car following. In my experience, the 2010s is much lighter, compact and reliable equipment, that does sound good, and fits in my Seat Ibiza.

A further example of black with black pearl ...

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1463140918' post='3048939'] White - looked the best to me and the sunburst was already more money when I went to place my order. [/quote] I planned white until I was in GAK and bought black. Good luck with setting it up.

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1463139837' post='3048920'] Not very impressed with the shipping times... I ordered one pretty much as soon as the OP went up, and got a confirmation first thing the following morning (Tuesday) with a message saying that it would be delivered in the next 2-3 days. Well today's Parcel Force delivery has been and gone with nothing for me, and the tracking information has the bass still stuck in Köln... [/quote] Which colour?

Very nice.
