So with the Mesa rig going out the door soon, I'm in the market for a new rig. I'm looking to go as lightweight as possible and with some good power behind it! Been looking at a GR Duel 1400 head plus a GR Carbon 410+ 1200w cab. Head is 3kg and the cab is 15kg. Any other suggestions before I commit to the above? Ta.

Apart from needing a titanium reinforced spine, these would make for a disgustingly awesome rig... Mesa Boogie Standard PowerHouse 8x10 Bass Cabinet - 2017 Cream and Black https://reverb.com/item/40463856-mesa-boogie-standard-powerhouse-8x10-bass-cabinet-2017-cream-and-black?utm_source=android-app&utm_medium=android-share&utm_campaign=listing&utm_content=40463856

Martin was an excellent chap - we'd met on a good number of occasions either at a dodgy car park or him driving the long road down from Manc Country to pick up some form of disgustingly heavy cab he'd buy from me! He was the true embodiment of Basschat on every level and will be missed by many for a long time to come. The halls of BassChat will forever echo quieter without MB1.

Nor mine! I would bet a substantial amount of money that my mere 465w Mesa Strategy would absolutely destroy the 2000w Bugera on volume alone. Wattage is almost like horsepower, it's the HP at the wheel that matters, not the max HP output of the engine.

They also do a 3600w version for those with a really tiny penis.

1000w is for wimps. 2000w is for champs. https://www.andertons.co.uk/bugera-bv1001m-bass-head-amplifier-000-b1m01-00010?tmsb=f2h5jhq&tmrl=d5u3hqx&tmsl=585e5160-4bc2-4c51-a4ee-7eda8489bca2&tmty=w&tmcv=68&tmcs=9cmhnyt

If you play it backwards it quite clearly says "give all of your earnings to basschat" over and over again...

Looks absolutely terrible, you'd best send it to me for err... 'disposal'* *disposal obviously means I will keep it!

Pay for my flights and I'll go get them! Or, as the gents say, the 'form' is the right option... but that doesn't get me to Italy does it!

So I stumbled across this guy the other day... he writes all the songs, sings all the harmonies and plays all the instruments as well as recording it all himself. Absolutely genius! Quirky, proggy, rocky, and doesn't take himself too seriously. Absolutely addicted to this album. (The first song is quite intense, but don't be put off by it! Commit to a full album listen and you won't be disappointed).

This is long gone by the way!!

Turn up with a triangle and assless chaps.

Years later...

If you get to the top spot @ped is executed and you get to take all of the little puppets he has on his machines heads and burn them while we all chant in a circle around the fire in a ceremony to welcome our new overlord. Ped wasn't the first to be executed in this manner and won't be the last...

I did and I regret nothing!
