  1. Not tried the current ones or the pair back to back but I own an old 90s USA Ampeg SVT-15E cab & it's my favourite cab I've ever owned. Very retro & very cool. I believe both are now made in the Far East so I don't know if they kept the quality up. I occasionally add an Ampeg SVT 210 cab (also 90s USA) for a bit more punch. I've never heard anyone criticise either cab.
  2. Mine is insured for £6k & that's not everything. I am selling a bit off though so it'll probably fall short of the £6k figure. I have a 70s Fender P-bass (£1.5k) & a Rickenbacker 4003 (£1.5k) that helped get that figure up there.
  3. Thanks Paul, that's really useful
  4. I've found sometimes / usually there is a backline for bass but occasionally you have to bring your own. You usually get an all expenses paid A4 photocopy Access All Areas Artiste pass to stick in your car when lugging the gear and usually just a line check rather than a formal soundcheck. All good fun though
  5. Heavy flatwounds, not especially brand loyal.
  6. Hadn't heard of them either. I use Musicguard personally but haven't tried to claim so can't rate them.
  7. [quote name='0175westwood29' post='933234' date='Aug 22 2010, 11:19 PM']burritobass yep sadly a grestch is out of my price range which is a big shame![/quote] Yeah, me too!
  8. I'd go for this personally [url="http://www.classicandcoolguitars.co.uk/basses/ampegrig.htm"]http://www.classicandcoolguitars.co.uk/basses/ampegrig.htm[/url]
  9. [quote name='Jigster' post='933123' date='Aug 22 2010, 09:32 PM']links the two channels - more drive[/quote] Cool, I think that's why I come to this site - top tip!
  10. I have the same head but 1978 & in a much more used condition. I've just bought a flightcase for it. What's with the red patch cable going into the normal input?
  11. Oh, ok. Does the Jack bass go for a lot these days? I remember these originally but I haven't kept up
  12. I'm the 3rd person to look at it & it just says electric bass guitar - has he changed it or do I just not get it? Shocking photos!
  13. At least after 10 working days it'll be worth the wait for delivery. Is that to allow for the decal to be applied?
  14. I agree. You can always review in 6 months if it's not being used
  15. I was quite pleasantly surprised with the Ibanez Artcore although no hard case. The Epiphone Jack Cassady is more retro in vibe but again, Epi have withdrawn the hard case these days. Italia look good to me & I'm yet to play an Eastwood but they seem to get very mixed reviews. I believe Gretsch will be outside your budget. The other option is EBay has a lot of 70s JapCrap cropping up right now.
  16. A bit too far for me but a great deal for the under 12s (not that I'd pass!)
  17. [quote name='lojo' post='932884' date='Aug 22 2010, 05:16 PM']I have flats on a P bass[/quote] That coupled with using your right hand up by the neck should be 90% of the battle.
  18. It was!
  19. How about a bass on a sun lounger? Incredibly this photo wasn't staged... although you'd think it was!
  20. Not exactly Miller Light (groan)... I didn't know there were so many colours. Thought it was just the natural finish.
  21. [quote name='XPAULUSX' post='932300' date='Aug 21 2010, 10:12 PM']Thanks for all the help and stuff, i know i've been a pain in the arse =D[/quote] You don't have to apologise, it is called BassCHAT after all!
  22. [quote name='Clarky' post='932345' date='Aug 21 2010, 11:36 PM']Yep, thats me playing an Alembic at a punk gig![/quote] Surely punk is about not having rules though?
  23. [quote name='stingrayPete1977' post='932589' date='Aug 22 2010, 11:00 AM']I dont see whats wrong with this,The OP clearly said that he does not know how to get into it and was looking for suggestions etc.He did not say "why is Jazz so rubbish everyone playing there own tune at a different time". Thats the idea of a forum surely?If the thread is just to annoy people and antagonise them (And im in the stingrays are crap firing line most of the time!)then I agree you should tread carefully but in this case im with the OP. Skee bap, Diddly bap bap!! [/quote] Don't get me wrong, I think the OP is done with a fair bit of tact. I was referring more generally. I think this is backed up by the fact that this one hasn't descended into chaos as they so often can.
  24. Welcome to Basschat Emilien
