    I like them - have got some chromes (50-105) on my Jazz at the moment and usually put XLs (45-105) on the StingRay. I used to use Prosteels all the time but did find them quite coarse on the fingers plus they seemed to not have the same life that the XLs do.

    I've played Kev's TRB a few times and it's lovely. Kev you should put the video up from the BBC recording for people to see it .

    You know i'd relieve you of the TRB if I could .

    Um I don't think the trade would be for JUST a cable ! I reckon he'll expect some cash too.

    I don't think they're particularly different to a normal Fender machine head bar the MusicMan logo..

    The newer ones are riveted on so it isn't as easy.

    [quote name='Danny' post='137738' date='Feb 10 2008, 06:31 PM']I've always wanted to know what the string spacing at the bridge is on these basses, any idea?[/quote] They're pretty close, I reckon no more than 17mm.

    It's always the same - a great solo sound rarely fits into a band. It's sometimes the case that a bad solo sound somehow just works in the full mix.. I pretty much do what David Nimrod does - my EQ is basically flat, but I boost high mids / treble about half way to full with my StingRay and leave it flat for the Jazz.

    A bit like this I bet:

    Thumbs up for Sandberg from me. I'd love a Basic KT5 or Cali P 5.. Have played a few in PMT in Birmingham and have always been impressed.

    I share your pain.. having tried tonyf's ASAT a couple of days ago I want one. A L2500 would suit me fantastically.. Do it !

    Knowing my luck i'll win my own contribution .

    You won't be able to run both outputs into one cab as it'd likely blow it up. Getting 2 x 4ohm cabs looks like your best bet since it's dual channel. I'm not 100% on this but if you email Guy at Ashdown he can tell you for sure [url="http://www.ashdownmusic.com/tech/tech_service.asp"]http://www.ashdownmusic.com/tech/tech_service.asp[/url]

    ...well what is it ?!

    Sounds like another GAS victim to me :brow:. Are you happy with the Zephyr ? If not why not ? The Squier VM Jazz is a good bass, a decent alternative to a MIM Jazz I believe, whether it's a positive or just a side stepping move I can't tell you.

    I'll chuck in a Daphon Delay pedal.

    Deal with Ashdown directly - it'll cut out the messing with the shop. Martin Burrows is very helpful.

    My Dad has a Gould 335 copy which is very nice - looks like a bargain.

    Vintage V1004DX

    Machines replied to Machines's topic in Basses

    You bought it at MusicLive ? I probably played it first . And yeah - fantastic piece of kit, if they did a 5 string of this i'd seriously consider it.

    Hmm, would lemon oil work ? Does fine for rosewood..

    Ok not too badly priced here: [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/ibanez_btb675_ntf.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/ibanez_btb675_ntf.htm[/url]

    Your ABM500 combo will only be operating at apx. 300w without an additional cab. Adding an extension cab unlocks the full potential of the head. The 4x10 or 1x15 (effectively a cab but built into the combo) will be 8ohm. Adding another 8ohm cab will give you the 575w @ 4ohm advertised. The only way you could get the full whack out of the existing combo is by changing the speakers inside. It is a bit confusing but you'll get used to it .
