Going back to Markbass after GK ( choice of two heads )
Sibob replied to flippyfloop's topic in Amps and Cabs
I've used a couple (1 running, 1 spare) of Little Mark 2s for the last 2 or 3 years. Absolutely brilliant amps, can't imagine using anything else at the mo. Had a brief affair with a Genz Benz Streamline 900 somewhere in that timeline.....horrible thing, not one useable sound for me. Back to the MB, more tone and almost seemed like more volume (although that was probably just tonal perception). If one died, I'd find another, or possibly a LM3 if its the same design. Si -
[quote name='Jimmi Clarke' timestamp='1410707166' post='2552145'] Very Sad!!! It's always good to honour great people and Lincoln was a really great bass player. I knew him from being the bass player in Reg Webbs jazz/fusion band 'The 3 B's'. I saw him play a few times, the last time was around a year ago. He had a great sound and feel and I always considered him as a real musical bass player who effortlessly played and improvised over some really difficult tunes. They have and album called blind, black and breathless which was made in the late 90's. Check out his bass playing on it, it's really good!! He really inspired me as a bass player. Just wish I had told him while he was still here. [/quote] Yes I still have my Blind, Black & Breathless album, its the CD that first introduced me to him. It was given to me by my A-level Music teacher as the drummer (ex- Suzi Quattro, the 'Breathless' part of the trio due to him being a chronic asthmatic) was teaching some lessons at my school, and Lincoln was considered to give me some bass lessons. I'll see if I can get some tunes from the album up as I'm sure the CD is way out of print now. *Edit* - There seems to be a few used copies on Amazon Cheers Si

I can confirm that the Aux input on the Enabler does not output through either the Jack output or the XLR, just the headphone out. I love my Enabler, one of the best purchases I've ever made, and it sounds goooood! Si

Hi all, Funeral appears to be on Thurs 18th Sept at Weeley Crematorium, Essex. 11am I'll be going along. Si

3 Leaf Enabler is what you want, stunning piece of kit. I'm almost certain that Aux in doesn't go to the XLR as I know it doesn't go to the jack out, just the headphones, but I'll check the XLR output later Si

Thanks for the video, I hadn't seen that . Yes, he had a lot more ability than a lot of his musical situations called for, and the fact that not many people realised that is a testament to how musical and tasteful he was Si

I was just about to post this, but makes me happy to know that others know about Lincoln . He was a very good friend of mine, and my first bass teacher. The first person to really light a spark in me to play bass and pursue music. I had already played for a year or so, but just sitting and learning CDs in my bedroom, but meeting Lincoln was my inspiration to look further than that, to really try to understand playing, to get out and gig etc. He would charge me £10 per hour to just cover his expenses, simply because he didn't consider himself a 'teacher', and saying he just enjoyed coming around to talk and just jam through ideas. He was this discussion and jamming, that inspired me to try and take the next step. We became good friends as I grew up, often meeting to discuss what we were upto, or traveling miles to each other's gigs. In fact he gave me my first dep gig, at the age of 17 with a band he played often for. Scary, but invaluable experience. He played with a a lot of artists across many genres from Rock to Jazz and 70's disco and nailed them all. I remember I was seeing him at the the Jazz Cafe playing for Linda Lewis, I offered him a drink at the bar, so he stated wine, when the bar guy asked me what size.....Lincoln very quickly chimed in with "Large" haha . I genuinely don't believe I'd be playing bass today if it wasn't for Lincoln, so this news a couple of years ago was hard-hitting. Even though I knew he was very ill, it was difficult to get news of the condition he was in towards the end, and as such unfortunately visiting the hospital was not possible, which is the most up-setting part. A lovely guy, a fantastic player, an accomplished soloist and accompanist. Taken way too soon. When I hear of Funeral details, I'll try and post them here in good time.

i was there for the Music/Nature camp this past April, all I can do is echo what Atle has said above. More than worth it, a great place to learn about music, nature, others and most importantly, yourself. Highly highly recommended..........and probably cheaper than you think! Especially considering the exchange rate. Si p.s. Yes the food is especially good!

Yeah, standard 1590bb size Measure your boss sized pedals (1590b, 125b etc) with side-mounted jacks.....similar width as 1590bb with north mouth jacks or close enough Si
