Line 6 to make another Variax bass using the current HD technology. And preferably make it headless. Perhaps marketing it as a bass that can make a huge variety of sounds, and making it Workbench compatible, rather than saying it's exact emulations of various basses.
Ooh, yes please.

Sure I have GAS for a couple of unreachable stars (Wal 5-string, '65 Jazz) but realistically they will never happen and I know it. In the real world, I have everything I need. One thing that would be handy is a small lightweight 500+ watt 8 ohm cab, so I can run my amp at lower levels. (But not too small or it'll sound like an iPhone, apparently. 🙄) But that's not a need or even a really-want.

I got a LoBat device from the states fitted to my active bass.
Blips when you plug in and goes on permanently when the batteries are running flat. I believe some Yamaha basses have a similar device.Like this? Seems like a good idea.
Question is... What is the threshold at which the alarm should be triggered? I suppose it depends on the individual circuit.

You are correct sir…your 1x12” rig would blow an old Ampeg out of the water.
It's a 2x12. A very, very loud 2x12.
Do you have anything to actually contribute to the thread, or did you just come here to make sarky comments about my rig?

Depends….I’ve heard some of these small speaker, lightweight rigs that are not far from that…🫤
'Small speaker' rigs?
12" speakers are small?

Have been holding on about replying as I'm due hospital visit fairly soon. Just been given 4th October & probably won't be out before then. Oh well, new hip has to take precedence. Hope you all have a great day & maybe I'll get there next year.

Seconded. Here's to a speedy recovery.

Nope, it's a lazy, indolent, decadent layabout that demands to be driven around.
What? You mean it's a vocalist?

But does it sound like music being played through an iPhone?
D'you think I'd have bought it if it did?

Is it silly that I'm getting really excited the closer the BFSWBB gets? Seeing some familiar faces, meeting some new ones, the fantastic looking kit list (and this year I feel like I've finally got something worth showing too!). I feel like a kid in the run-up to Xmas.

I’d just like a powerful bass amp that doesn’t require a forklift to move from home-car-venue and back again.
I wanted one of those. So I bought a Shuttle 9.2 and a Barefaced Super 12T. Now I have a super powerful bass amp that barely requires any effort at all to move from home-car-venue and back again.

To the OP, why 1985?
- It's as good a year as any.
- It was halfway through my personal favourite decade.
- I was 20 that year.

...assuming you're a} alive and b} old enough, what tape are you putting in your Walkman or car stereo?
For me, it's a C90 with Level 42's eponymous 1st album on one side and their 'Pursuit of Accidents' on the other.

Good news, the Epi Explorer can come... just.
Aww, grand. I don't like pointy basses as a rule, but there's something about the Explorer shape that I really like. I wish I'd bought an Aria ZZB back when they were dirt cheap.
