Time is Money (Bastard) - SWANS

I managed to pick up a Marshall MB15 locally through Gumtree, and what a thoroughly brilliant little amp it is. I'm well impressed with it. Even though it's "only" 15w, it's still loud in the house. There's always something like the Blackstar Fly Bass, or the Laney version that get great reviews.

Mexican Radio - Wall of Voodoo / Celtic Frost

They reformed a little while ago, done a load of gigs, think there's a couple of new singles. Hopefully an album in the making.

Used to own a Thunder 1A, one of the few basses I wish I'd kept hold of. Certainly wish I'd kept it over the Washburn I traded it for. Got to agree with Prowla, they are quite heavy.

Cog are another great Aussie band that don't seem to get any recognition.

Laney's Digbeth DB-Pre?

Maggots - GWAR

Am I good enough to play a Fodera? Probably not.

The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner - Iron Maiden

Rabbit - Chas & Dave

Had a look on the Line6 forum earlier, after seeing the mention of a Helix update in this thread. Looks like once that's out, there's a POD Go update imminent as well.

I've owned & used the v2.0, XT (bean & Live), the HD500x, and now the POD Go, must admit, that although the POD Go is "limited" in the number of effects you can have, the quality surpasses the HD, and that was seriously good (if underrated). Although the XT had loads of amp & cab sims, I found the effects to be a bit lacking. OK, there weren't many dedicated bass amp & cab sims on the HD, even with the HD Bass pack, but they were really good (better than the XT's IMO), and the effects were good too. Nothing bass-specific, but all the ones I wanted worked well and sounded good. I did find that the POD Go needed a lot more tweaking to find a good sound, over the XT & HD's "plug & play" approach, but the core sounds are there. With the limitations of the POD Go, there are a few little work-arounds that you need to figure out, such as I like a touch of reverb, but with the effects added, I didn't have a free block for a reverb... Work-around, use a high number in the "Early reflections" in the Cab settings. Another one is to definitely go through the "Mic" options, as some are underwhelming, but some sound superb. Really pleased with the POD Go.

My first bass was a Kay P copy. Frankly, I don't care what happened to it, and thankfully I managed to sell it on.

Cheers Rich, but it was just a bout of GAS.

Fatso Forgetso - Kyuss

No, it's about the "Mainland UK" stopping just north of Perth, and that all the major courier companies having to hire a hairy bloke with a donkey to deliver parcels... Apologies, just a tad annoyed about that. Was really looking forward to getting hold of the DB-Pre, especially at that price.

DR Strings DDT?

Oh dear. Turns out I obviously didn't read the GAK advert right, they can't deliver to Scotland.
