  1. Oooh, birth year bass! Come on, the lottery win! GLWTS
  2. I've tried using Newtone Diamond round core stainless roundwound, but couldn't get on with them being so zingy to start, and they also ripped my fingers to shreds. I use the equivalent nickel model now and am much happier.
  3. Anfield Rap - John Barnes & Liverpool FC
  4. I can highly recommend the setup I have with an Ashdown ABM 600 and a Barefaced Two10, both bought secondhand (from some fine members of this site) so cost me £900 in total.
  5. Is that the one Chris Wolstenholme plays on Madness?
  6. I've seen a YT video where a guy from Ampeg tried to recreate an SVT sound with the PF range. He got close for the purposes of the video.
  7. Weren't The Who involved in their development? Or was that Marshall amps? Or both?
  8. Definitely car, I've too much to carry to think about public transport as an option (plus I'd get some very strange looks on the bus), and don't have the money for taxis.
  9. I had the 1/4" cable first because the amp I was using at the time only had that connector, while my current one has Speakon. My backup amp also only has a 1/4" socket so I'd need it for that in case anything happens. I will get another Speakon cable eventually, but other things have a higher priority at the moment
  10. Good to know! Fortunately I only have one cab for now and have a 1/4" cable to use as a backup.
  11. On A Rope - Rocket From The Crypt
  12. I think occasional forays into the red is an approach that Ashdown actively encourage?
  13. Dave also has Views on the manufacturer of the cables, and suggests finding ones with actual Neutrik connectors.
  14. Agreed, I noticed a huge difference between the 500 and 600, but that could be because the power amp in the specific 500 was on the way out.
  15. I think Sire describe it as "tobacco burst", despite every other manufacturer having a tobacco burst that's effectively a 2TS with just the black and brown bands. This is a 2TS with red and brown. I have a tobacco burst V7 and it's great (albeit it will be sold later in the year to finance a bass I've been after for years) - enjoy!
  16. Oh god, that's awful. Poor Norm Stockton seems to be thinking "what in the tone deaf nonsense am I doing here?"
  17. Same here, but no courier is perfect. Our local Hermes delivery person is fantastic for example, but she seems to be an exception by all accounts.
  18. Looks like these are the only options other than posting a letter: https://www.dpd.co.uk/content/how-can-we-help/contact.jsp
  19. Blonde Hair, Blue Jeans - Chris De Burgh
  20. I Think We're Alone Now - Tiffany
  21. Google suggests this: 0121 275 0500
  22. Thankless Job - Anthony Stewart Head
  23. Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap - AC/DC
  24. Self-taught from 18, dipping into various books, websites, YT channels, Fender Play and even a few less-than-successful online "in-person" lessons. I've picked up random bits of learning over the years but nothing I'd call coherent.
