Hi Bchaters, Has anyone tried the latest Epifani UL3 410 cab? How does it sound comparing to its predecessor UL410 2?I know it is not a neo cab and Nick Epifani (just like Jim Bergantino etc..) moved back to ceramic speakers since neodymium has become crazy expensive. So new line of Epifani with ceramic still the same soundwise or not? Any thoughts, experiences would be appreciated.Thanks

Hi, I am after a good home practice amp and hesitating between a Roland Micro Cube and a Fender Bronco 40. Could any of you guys tell me what would be the best option regarding sound quality,effects etc....? I know the Roland has an inbuilt drum machine but the Fender might sounds better.I would go with the better sounding amp definitely as drum machine downloads are available now from even smartphones. Cheers

Hi fellow Bchatters, I keep browsing American websites and could cry if i think about getting a bass from there but massive VAT and customs have to put me off all the time when making rough calculations.Even with shipping costs an MTD 535 could be much more cheaper than here for example but all these added costs kill the idea. Has anyone ordered a bass from the US?I'd be happy if you share your experiences with me Cheers

[quote name='NJE' timestamp='1328997702' post='1535963'] Sorry to sidetrack but is there a new cheaper USA MTD 535? [/quote] This US MTD 535 on the video is around 3500$ (with some fancy top and another extras they around 4500$)

Thanks guys it really helps! At the moment I'm hesitating between these two (just should make some funds first of all ).Quite hard to find an MTD (I dont know if there's any dealer in the UK though)and Sadowskys are only available in London stores.I found that Sados are perfect instruments but I just want to try an MTD before take the plunge. Specially now as I found a cheaper version of a US MTD 535. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j4RF_Dap_kM"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j4RF_Dap_kM[/url]

Hi everyone, What do you think what basses are mostly versatile?MTD's and Sadowsky's are fantastic sounding and built instruments and it would be very hard to make a decision if I had to choose.Unfortunately I never had a chance to compare these basses side by side.I'm pretty sure Sadowskys are perfect for any style but how about MTD basses?I have hardly heard rock musicians to talk about MTD's however I am sure they are top basses and fit in any genre.Could you share your experiences?Thanks

remember this from glory days and still gives me the same feeling.fantastic song! [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yh1mMjsPGjo"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yh1mMjsPGjo[/url]

Hello everyone, I'm obsessed with cool Fender jazz basses.However I played and owned some fantastic modern 4 and 5 strings instruments I always go back to Fender jazzes.Has anyone tried to compare a 64 Custom Shop jazz and a 50th anniversary model?If so,what is your experience? I have read many comments on Talkbass and reviews on Harmony Central.Most of them are saying that a 64 CS is far more the best Fender and no comparison with other also top jazzes.So if you have any opinion could you share them with me? Thanks

That's one of the coolest combination I'd say!I use an Epifani UL410 which is great with my Aguilar SC500,but since I tried DB cabs 10 and 12 inches as well I can't stop thinking about a full Aggie rig.Wish I could get 2x212 DB's,but I think I have to compromise somewhere between portability and loud gigging rig.What if I combine a 210 and a 212 cab (both 8 ohms of course)?I could get a combined 10 and 12 inches perfect bass sound.For rehearse I would take just a 210,for a loud gig I could use both (210 + 212) cab.Has anyone tried this combination before?

I've heard a very exciting combination with 2x10 and 2x12 inches speakers in one cab and sounded amazing.Check Schroeder cabs mate

Hi everyone! I use a tone hammer with my 75 jazz reissue.The problem is I have to buy two 9 volt batteries every week.I just did 3 rehearses with my tone hammer and batteries already dead (two 9 volt duracell).Now ordered a standard 18v 2.1 mm (-) DC power supply and this adaptor definitely does the job.But still worrying a bit about circuit. Does anyone use Aguilar Tone Hammer with batteries?And ever has experienced similar things with it?If your Agi preamp also loves eating duracells please let me know. Thanks a lot

Hi all! Has anyone heard about Fender American Deluxe 2010 Jazz is discontinued now? Hopefuly not

Nordy jazz 4 and 5 are on the top no doubt.And Bacchus japanese basses are amazing too.
