    We did a ticketed charity gig last night at a local music venue. It was our gig, our singer organised it all (the venue also helped masses). As we're still a newish band, this was our 6th gig, it was a bit squeaky butt timeas to how many would turn up. In the end we were absolutely chuffed to get a decent number there. And a great crowd they were as well. It was a really cracking night and we raised several hundred £s in the end. We had support from a former band mate of mine, who did a great solo set and went down a storm. We're all still buzzing I think.

    Someone's got to pay U2's taxes.

    Firstly, this is a cab I wanted when Genz Benz still existed. I never had enough bass tokens for one though. I'd not even heard one though. 2 12in drivers with a tweeter. 4ohm. 600w. 23kg. I bought this from @wavydavy Dave on here, and it was a great transaction (prompt and well packaged etc). I was going to buy a new bass, but I saw this and thought... let's get it. I used it for the first time last night at practice. I am really happy with it, especially in combination with the Bugera Veyron I bought recently. The lows are really tight and focused. It sounded really punchy . It's quite 'sparkly' even without the tweeter in use. I'm really looking forward to using at the weekend, especially as our drummer is using his Gretcsh kit not his electric 😁

    I'm probably going to go for the Squier. One thing I have noticed with the Vintera is the truss rod is at the heel which, although period correct, is irritating.

    We played at a village hall last night. It was a ticketed beer and cider festival. We had great fun. Everything went well. We set up quickly, got the sound right, played really tight and we performed really well. It was a good confidence booster as we've had a couple of wobbles lately, but we were on it last night. I'm absolutely done in though 🤣

    Would it be fair to say the Vintera is quite a bit of money to have a Fender decal on the headstock?

    I'm looking to buy another Jazz bass and the 2 candidates (the only candidates) are first version of the Fender Vintera 60s Jazz or the Squier CV 60s Jazz. I'd just be interested in opinions on either, especially what the necks are like. Thanks

    It's not a great photo tbh, but this is all I'm using at the moment, the Bugera and Fender 210... obviously there's a bass plugged into it. 😁 I'm going to try the Peavey head out at next practice. It belongs to our guitarist. Sounds nice at home, I'm very curious as to how it sounds with the band. Who knows, I might offer him a tenner for it.

    The bass looks fantastic. I'm a sucker for black and tort.

      I might need training,  but I could work up to that.

      I'm currently at 8 with the 9th coming in May, so there's always room for one extra.
