Probably sensible. The logic for me going without stemmed from my previous experience with tweeters - on my Bergs, for example, dialling out the tweeters left the crossover in the circuit, and I always felt it affected the natural roll-off of the drivers. Whether it's the same with the TKS I don't know, but as there's no crossover in there, I know the drivers are getting the full range.

Same here.

They were bloody dangerous.

It's a great clip - it's popped up in here just recently.

[quote name='Passinwind' timestamp='1446930916' post='2903644'] Since this amp is the among the very first releases to use the newest ICE module, your wait should only be five years or so. [/quote] Heh... yeah, that's the problem. I dunno - I might really like this when I hear it, but (as we've chatted about via PM) it needs to be a real advance from what I've heard already to ring my bell...

I admit I'm tempted by this, but from what I've read there's been no great advance in the spec of the power section, so.. I think I'll hang on for the next generation of modules to come through.

I have no issue with him playing around with the groove and going nuts, but his timekeeping is pretty shoddy in places.

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1446888592' post='2903148'] At least he can play more or less in time, which is a huge plus if you ask me. [/quote] It's the 'more or less' bit that surprises me...

It's a promo. It's about showing off. it's a good idea and it's well shot. But he's all over the shop. In the end I wasn't sure wether to listen to the drum part or the backing track.

I wonder if the power section is one of the usual ICE modules everyone else uses at the moment..?

Yep - one nicely responsive page is all you need.

Just go to Maruszczyk and get it over with...

A great, distinctive groove courtesy of Fleetwood & McVie. Who cares if it's the same all the way through? What a tune!

I read the Jaco book recently. Fascinating story. He was clearly a genius. And an incredible, effortless, game-changing, player. I have nothing but the utmost respect for him, the music still does nowt for me.

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1446065098' post='2896681'] If you look at the Fender headstock objectively and compare it to more modern ones, it looks very paddle-like and unnecessarily large and clumsy. But I like it. [/quote] That shape saved Leo a few quid, too...

[quote name='ebenezer' timestamp='1446048619' post='2896513'] are there any other basses at this price point that will better this one? [/quote] [url="http://public-peace.de/index.php/bass-guitars/maruszczyk/elwood/4-string"]Get exactly what you want for less, without the fugly headstock.[/url]

I do it on one of my covers bands. It's good fun - a nice line, good song, and the punters love it.

[quote name='ahpook' timestamp='1445185683' post='2889404'] Maybe he'll play it on the TV show....maybe not. I think you're supposed to enter into the spirit of a charity auction and that it being "one of Sting's basses" is a generous description for the sake of raising some money. He is going to sign it, that adds some value to it. [/quote] ^^^ this. A couple have surfaced up here as part of charity auctions.

[quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1445155956' post='2889083'] The position of the pups has a big impact. [/quote] This - they vary quite a lot on PJs.

Oh, and top loading only if you go down this route.

Order a set of GHS flats direct from Lakland. As nice as the La Bellas, and significantly cheaper. And less choice to confuse you :-)
