    A new razor blade (a proper one, not a Gillette Fusion Mach 3 Turbo GTI superlube) held flat to the surface does the trick. then a bit of polish. Wrap the unused edge in cardboard first!

    Did the other guy know your cab had a cover with it? It's probably still at the venue surely?

    I'm sure it'll be fine with a bit of EQing, as long as you can manage aesthetically! Has the 151 got the tweeter and L pad like the 121? I bypassed the tweeter in the combo due to the excessive hiss and rely on the one in the 121 when I need to.

    What's the improvement in the EVO IV cabs over the other ABM cabs Lozz?
  5. Muppet
    That was the point I was sort of getting at - seems like pretty good value for money assuming you have the space and the muscle power!
  6. Muppet
    Yeah I guess so - I used to cart around an Ampeg 610 and before that a couple of MAG 115s. we're spoiled nowawdays. They still make them though so maybe they're used exclusively by bassists with roadies.....

    Hmmm, I'm thinking that weight is a concern here. Maybe the cost differential is justified!

    In the studio today and there's always been an Evo III 410 combo stuck in the corner. I decided to give it a go this once and it was great! I have a ABM Evo IV head already as a back up but I thought about checking eBay for Ashdown cabs and they're stupid cheap; I mean you can get 2 410s for £300 or so. That's less than one used Barefaced 410. Anyone have any thoughts on the cabs? As I say, I thought the ABM 410 was really really nice! Is it just that they're not fashionable at the moment or what ? steve

    Marco used to make pretty amps, if you remember this....

    And it just looks so damn ugly! How's the Kemper on effects? I know how good it is on amp modelling....

    Duff patch lead or cable?

    The Moogerfooger is good fun but there are so many parameters you can change that it's going to take a while to get used to. Now, that SVT 4 Pro..... I just gigged it tonight. It's absolutely awesome.

    Anyone got a list of the new presets? To be fair I never use them but I still like to try them out. I did the restore to reload in the presets but I can't work out for the life of me which ones are new - the lists look exactly the same......

    I always use Hiscox cases and swear by them but I have a new Fender guitar in one of the deluxe/elite cases and they are rather nice!
  15. Muppet
    The Moogerfooger with bass voicing isn't too bad either. Plenty of patterns...
  16. Muppet
    Yep, and a Scrambler and. SVT 4PRO that sounds better than the real thing (to me anyway, having had one!) Few nice new touches in the HX Edit too And, with Ampeg now being part of the Yamaha family, all the Ampeg amps and pedals retain their proper names..

    So, 2.8 is now out, guys! This is a pretty big update so I'd advise reading the release notes and perform the install as it it says (I.e back up, upgrade HX Edit, update unit) https://line6.com/support/page/kb/effects-controllers/helix/helixhx-280-release-notes-r913/

    Totally hooked on the BBC World Service Podcast, 13 Minutes to the Moon.  Superb.

    being a bit more serious, I didn't know about the 63s and at UK prices they're a tenner more as you say. Without hearing them, all I could do is compare the graphics, 63 first then 62
  22. Muppet
    12 apparently!!
  23. Muppet
    They're 1 better.

    Bit late to this but I had an older BA115HP. I think I would have preferred the 210 as the 115 was a bit flabby in the low end I thought. and it was heavy! Ampwise, it did a very good Ampeg sound. I used the DI a lot for recording.

    The serial number indicates it's a 2011 model. in 2011 Fender celebrated 60 years of the Precision bass and every bass of that year had a commemorative neck plate. This does not make them an Anniversary model. There was a special 60th anniversary precision bass - the Blackguard Blond model - but yours isn't one. Your bass is a standard US model from that year. It comes with the standard 61276/7 split coil pickups. From 2012 on, Fender fitted Custom Shop 62s instead. You can buy the customer shop pickups separately so if you wanted to upgrade then this would be a good start. As far as I know, there is no such thing as a 64 precision pickup.
