    I have two of these delicious Harvest Leather straps in absolutely tip top condition. They've had light use and straplocks fitted. Both straps are 8.5cm wide and are lightly padded. "Deer Grain Nappa": This strap is 107-122cm length. "Cow Antique": This strap is 104-119cm. The straps cost me £40 each plus postage from Germany. I would like £50 the pair posted, or £27.50 posted each.

    Lots of people like rigs with matching driver sizes, while others swear it makes no difference. Only your ears can decide which you prefer. That said, I'd imagine the 410HF would be a very good match for the 210, and as Lozz says it's pretty unlikely you'll damage the 210.

    Wow, not only my year of birth but the same month too!

    Is it a Mayones? Headstock looks the same.

    Rogue medium scale string?

    Do these have a wound third?

    I'm sure the Legend is a good bass, but the semi-hollow body, pickup placement, and piezo in the bridge are just perfect for smooth fretless mwah. That said, if you like burpy bridge pickup fretless tones then the Legend might be a better choice. I'm primarily a fretless player and I'd go Spectorcore every time over the Legend.

    How long are these, ball to silk? Were they cut for 4 over 1?

    As long as the pickup isn't getting crushed that looks like a nice snug fit to me.

    That’s a heck of a lot of rig for the money.

    Just FYI, I have used La Bella white, copper and black nylons through-body on my Franz fretless with no issues at all.

    Personally, I would want the innards covered! Why not fashion something out of thin aluminium or wood, which should be easy enough to do. Another option is to put in in the Markbass Little Mark bag: it's designed to be used with the amp left in the bag.

    Thanks Stew.

    Without wishing to state the obvious, lofts are only cold in the winter. In the summer they can get very hot. I have kept my cabs in the garage in all seasons for decades and never had an issue. They are off the ground and wearing padded covers though.

    Where are you located?

    Music to my ears

    This is just what I wanted to hear, as although my band isn't that loud (two acoustic guitarists and an electronic drum kit) I want to keep the valve tone clean.

    No demo yet, but I do need to do one as I have two Franz basses (I have a fretted 5 too). My bass is a standard Sirius with upgraded maple top, whereas the RG model has a Rheingold pickup and no volume control. All Franz basses are chambered and use thermo treated woods, so they are really light and very resonant. My fretless is 8.25lbs, so nice and light. It really sings, has no dead spots on it at all, and is just a joy to play.

    Mert, please let us know what you think of it. Especially curious to know what the "feedback" knob does?

    Brilliant bit of kit. The HPF on each channel is so useful.

    I sold an amp to Phil. Instant payment and terrific comms. It's all good here
  23. franzbassist
    Superb cabs.

    It's always been unlined for me. Lines on the board are more confusing to my eyes, but I totally get that they work for others!
  25. franzbassist
    Indeed it is
