I hate flats, they just sound dull. If I want to quieten the string noise I just turn the treble down and that works for me Aidan. I have some barely used 9050's That came on a bass I bought recently and took them off, I'm looking for a Hofner ignition to try them on...

I sold Theo my Eros 12 string, immediate payment and friendly comms, a real asset to Basschat and a thoroughly nice guy! all the best my friend. Tom.

I always seem to deal with the best people on here and Stew is no exception to that, fast and friendly comms, instant payment for my Squier Dimension. A gentleman, scholar, and acrobat, thank you my friend. (Runs to hide from his wife....)

Great minds Aidan...

That's right, but I mainly do church gigs so a noisy fan wouldn't go down well which is why I only need 100w or so, our church is upstairs with the hall underneath. It's a big echo ey space that the rumble sounds awful in. However the Mighty Trace upstairs rattles the old windows... It was taken up there in 2009 and hasn't moved since 😀 I would love another Markbass, an 802 micro but I can't justify over £500.

Some good ideas here, forgot to mention that I have a Rumble 100 and don't like it very much so I'm going to sell it. To me it sounds boomy and not very clear or defined. There are a lot of buttons and knobs that just make it louder or quieter. Not like my markbass CMD 151P, which it won't sound anything like that. dunno....

Thanks guys, I'm having my doubts about it now, I had the orange 100w combo, great sound and a lot of bottom end but crikey the weight... any suggestions for anything else in that range?

Anyone rate them for small gigs? 100w head and 2x 10" cab

Pics please Rich...

The first pic shows the truss rod, the blue thing, (another tech term) Other than that it looks like any truss rod I suppose. Twincam might be able to tell you more.

I actually bought it like this from GFM very cheaply and when it arrived I then started to think what to do with it So I have a new bass that's cost about 150 shimblats cheaper than a new one. I'm heavily into these so this will be my backup until Michael (Linus 27) sells me my original Teal Stingray back.

I absolutely did, I was driving home with a stupid grin on my face! Been playing it for an hour or so and it's not even slightly out of tune.

Well my neck has been fixed! and good. Setup with a low action, plays perfectly. I would just like to thanks Twincam for all his hard work in saving this neck, I'm blown away with his expertise, highly recommend him. Thanks Aidan.

Just ordered one, thanks for that. Job done!
