I'm using a 65Amps Apollo cab with a Faital Pro 15. Nice and balanced and works well for my needs - gigging pub band with live drummer and P.A.support. They aren't that easily found though but well made and solid! It was on ebay and I'd recommend having a look on there just in case you see a bargain!

Milton bought a pedal a while back and I'm just chiming in to say he's a top bloke - good comms and sounds like a cool fella. Welcome to basschat

This is our farewell gig/ E.P. release as our singer is off to work the chalets in France with his good lady for Winter and then...who knows......! Come an help us give him a suitable fare thee well with our buddies The Canyon and Impleo Its gonna be £5 with a download code for the E.P. Kick off about 7:30pm See you there!

Bassdoc on here can make custom plates but not sure if he'd need a template to start from?

I've used the OBD-3 on a low gain setting with a Wren and Cuff Phat phuck into loop A of a loop pedal so I could use them independantly of each other or combinded in that one loop. Thought they paired well together and offered a nice colour individually and together - as they were in the loop I could do the tap dancing during the verse then kick them in together for the heavy bits or as required. I thought it sounded pretty massive

I really dig my JO5 it's a keeper!

Got in touch regarding a sale, we arranged to meet and exchanged a few PM's/texts. Money transferred and the whole thing went smoothly and a throughly nice chap to boot! The reason BC will always be better than eBay. Nice to meet you JP!

My band Titus Pillo will be playing as part of this super value deal which is free entry to the gig and free entry to the super fun club night the is Magic Nostalgic - spin the wheel and whichever genre the pointy bit lands on thats th music they play for the next 30 minutes! Top night out! Also on the bill are rockin' three piece Hagana and a secret guest! Doors from 7pm first bad 7:45pm FREE ENTRY for all to celebrate the festival being over for another year

Bought some flats from Gareth - the strings are as smooth as the transaction was! Bingo!

Razze I'm recently a 5er convert and have hardly touched the 4 string in months. I've not had to 're-learn my playing style' nor made any massive changes to how I play in general. Sure I have reworked original tunes to incorporate the low b but not in a way which over emphasises the low end - it's actually made some tunes easier as shifting the root notes to the B string 'opens up' the fretboard and going down to D on the B string is very rewarding! If you fancy a go on it gimme a shout - but I'd say from experience (and I'm of the opinion that) you should play a 5er exclusively each day for a week or two (month or two) just to get your head fully into the zone. By incorporating the B or indeed shifting patterns down to the B string you'll find that patterns are the same just in a different position on the neck (if uisng the B string as your start point) which should make the transition more natural should you go back to trying it. I've been playing over the festival and gigging with a singer/songwriter makeshift band thing and on the slower tunes the weight of those lower notes is simply a delight to play and a real nice contrast when I play a little higher up (not too high mind its still a bassline!). The bass is a 35" scale and I swear I can hear the open E string sounding 'deeper' or 'fuller' as a result but that could all be in my head I suppose. It took me a cple of goes to feel right on a 5er but now I can really dig it and have gigged and rehearsed with it exclusively with my 4 string staying home and likely to be sold off in the very near future!
