That's a shame for the rest of us, as they're great pickups, but retiring to the sea and sailing a boat round the country sounds like a great retirement plan.

I've got a laptop-enabled (eh?) rucksack for my Streamliner, cables, PSUs, etc. very handy. I think PC world may still do them.

We've been doing it for a few weeks, it's more about the groove on the day/night for me, and it depends on which drummer I'm playing with. Just the four chords looping round, so it's fun. Vid is waaaaay too busy for me, tho, as Chris says, some interesting fills.

If you can find a tubey pedal with a level-controlled DI Out, you could keep your LMII, too.

It's is a path I've been down: I had a LMIII, wanted a tubier sound, so tried a Sansamp BDDI in front of it, liked it, and wanted that tubier sound in one box, so I tried a lot of the smaller hybrid heads (including the LMTube and Rocker, neither of which I liked much - one ineffectual as MM20 says, the other too fizzy) then bought (in order) a TC RH450, an Ashdown Spyder, a Mesa M-Pulse, an SVT Pro-7, a PF500, a Walkabout and then a Streamliner. I've stuck on the Streamliner because it works for me, but I guess if I had to pick a second place it'd be the M-Pulse, tho that's a full-size head. Never tried a TTE, but I'd like to. Rather than bung the board up with stuff I've typed before, if you want any more detailed opinions, just PM me.

Congratulations, lovely name...and for God's sake don't get her a Rick*****ker, we'll never hear the end if it...

[quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1375609024' post='2163299'] The OP jut asked about someone's tone - on a bass forum, of all places - and he's accused of having a lack of musical understanding? Get a grip. [/quote] +1

Hipshot Supertone. A better bridge all round.

There used to be a bloke (I forget his name) who went to the rock clubs in Manchester in the 80s (Jillys, The Phoenix, UMIST, Rockworld, etc) who did air-drummed/headbanged all night on the dance floor, and would do it at gigs, too.

Ah, now, if we're doing cashback, I'll just have the Dingwall and four lots of money...

A Dingwall 4 (go-to) A good P/J (fallback) A Fenderbird (rawk'n'roll) A BC Rich 8 (exotica) A coffee-table luthiery one (Shuker, or Overwater, Sei, etc) just for the look of it. Although the Dingwall would do just fine on its own.

Well, that's my DOB ('64) Thunderbird plans in the bin, then...

Wow, and I thought my Laklandbird had the Least Accessible Top 5 Frets In Christendom...

Top band: utterly, utterly over the top, overblown and everything on about fourteen, rather than eleven. Bought the first album when it came out, and loved them since.

Nope, sorry: not a thing, not even a t-shirt. You'd never know, if it wasn't for the basses lying around the place...

I use my Shure SE215s for everything headphone-related, including practising with my Streamliner. They sound really, really good.
