Insurance is only valid if the bass is in a hard case.

I would get in touch with Thomann to see if they could do you a 3 pin plug gratis before you go buying something as they are set up to cater for customers in the UK. My Gallien MB210 combo arrived from Soundslive this week with a 2 pin plug so a quick email and they had a 3 pin one out to me the next day.

This is my cab [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/155700-laney-nexus-nx115-1x15-cab-celestion-neo-400w-8ohms/"]here[/url] and the driver in it makes it really good for dirty and slightly dirty amps. It was amazing with my Gallien head and I've used a Terror bass through several cabs so I think this would work very well. Plus I've used this cab as a monitor for small to medium sized gigs with no PA and its been great.

If you can get TI flats to work on that bridge then go for those. I had a standard fretless stingray and had a fantastic sound with those. I don't go for the nasally fretless tone and in all honesty my tone on a fretless sounds like me playing a fretted which is why I gave playing fretless. The 30th is a growly beast but calming the EQ down a bit and fitting TIs will mellow it out a bit

I love the wenge neck on mine. If it starts to get sticky or slow feeling, a quick rub along it with 000 grade steel wool and its nice and slippery again

Check out one of the MB combo threads on Talkbass. I'm pretty sure there are double bass guys on there using the MB112 and MB115. I checked out all of them before going for the MB210

I considered these cabs along with the Laney Nexus 1x15". On paper the Laney was the better cab in almost every way and I'm pretty sure that after using it for the past 9 months it is. Incidentally I have it for sale, purely cos I want a matching cab for my GK MB210

Here's the [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hipshot-2-Point-SuperTone-Bass-Bridge-Gibson-CHROME-/330619263918?pt=Guitar_Accessories&hash=item4cfa719bae"]2 point Hipshot[/url] but personally I don't think its worth it as it only fits older Gibsons so if you sell the bass then you're unlikely to find a buyer for the bridge very easily. I'd just fire a normal Fender bridge on there.

its more to do with the different properties of the valves so that you can turn your amp up louder without getting the overdrive or some prefer to have it at lower volume ie we're not talking about a dozen different 12AX7 valves by different manufacturers which will still probably be slightly different, we're talking about substituting a 12AX7 for a 12AU7.

[url="http://www.soundsliveshop.com/p/Roksak_Pro_Deluxe_20_Bass_Guitar_Gig_Bag_%28BG20%29/ROKSAK-BG20"]Roksak[/url] I'm using one for my Thunderbird (I've got the thunderbird shaped one) the big pocket will be roomy enough for a shuttle and there's even a velcro loop in there for attaching cables to. The smaller pocket on the front is ideal for tools and a leatherman fits inside the pocket inside that one. Been using mine since last year and it looks as good as new and I have on occasion had it over my shoulders, mainly to give me less trips to the car but also when taking the bus to gigs where everything is supplied.

An update to after fitting these strings. The thick part of the E comes right up to just under the tuning peg that holds the string and I was a bit wary at first but all is fine. I have a standard scale precision.

Try a Gallien 700RB II with 2 MAG 4x10" cabs and stand well back. The sound of the cabs depends on the amp you use and that combination is a winner. Easily stood up to 2 guitarists with everything on 10

looks like the route is for the standard 2 pots and a jack rather than being widened to accomodate the third pot. I would've thought that they would route all P bodies the same to allow for this control configuration

I've had good and bad with Ashdown. The opposite to some on here: Bad with the ABM and good with MAG cabs. When Ashdown first began, everyone saw them as the new Trace Elliot cos they kind of were in a way and because how many people loved Trace and how good they were, I think some longed for the golden age of the Series V stuff to return, albeit in a modified and improved form. The Superfly amps were brilliant as a concept but I read too many topics of failures occuring and when the Little Giant came out people were wary as there were still Superflys with outstanding issues so how could this new model possibly be reliable and worth buying? They need a new product that will get them talked about again in a good way. The more people speak highly of them, the more people will buy them and bring their brand back up again. I think Rob Gallien has done that with the MB series combos, more on Talkbs than here, as it has made people aware of the brand and if they don't but one of those, there is a good chance they will look at their other ranges giving them more exposure for what was already a highly regarded, reliable brand that no one really spoke about that much despite having great products. hopefully enough people will buy this or one of their other newer models and have good enough experiences to start talking about them again

It looks messy if you know what I mean. There's no contrast between body and hardware and with the pattern of the wood it just looks a bit busy and takes a while to focus on the individual parts

Underneath the bit you press with your foot to engage the pedal there's probably a clip or screw(s) holding the switch to the top of the enclosure. If you take off the two screws at either side holding that bit being careful not to lose the washers and the order they came off in it'll make it easier to get to the switch I can't imagine it will be much different to [url="http://www.instructables.com/id/Modify-Your-Boss-DS-1/step2/Disassembly/"]this[/url]
