I'm thinking he uses a SVT4PRO or two, but I could be wrong!!

Andertons and the last UK distributor are run by the same person. Not surprising they got the last lot of stock! I bought a Eden RS410 combo. Bloody brilliant - I've hardly been off the thing and the NC range is just as good.

Rich - have you tried asking on Cambridgebands.com? Normally quite helpful. Are you looking for one in town or outside and does it have to have a PA and gear...?

On the normal Jazz V I think it was post 2004 and the Deluxe switched around 2003 I think...

According to the website specs, your overhang is 100mm. Stranger that they have gone to so much trouble to make the width of all the units the same though...

The signal is still not going to be at the right level for you to record usefully with. Assuming you have already increased the 'record level input' on your software then you need some sort of preamp to boost the signal.

[quote name='Timface' post='29622' date='Jul 10 2007, 10:32 AM']Im still looking at getting ABM900 and Ampeg 610[/quote] I find Ashdown heads and Ampeg cabs don't go that well. I use a SVT4PRO and a Ampeg 610 and have an Ashdown head as a backup. I'm not convinced that any amp is bulletproof. If you are paranoid (as I admit I am) then you'll have a backup plan. I guess it means you need to take care of your equipment and have it serviced as and when. Anything not looked after is going to fail earlier than anything that is.

[quote name='Rumble' post='29591' date='Jul 10 2007, 09:18 AM']Does it make sense that if you're using an active bass you only need a passive DI and v.v?[/quote] No it's not that simple. Mine is an active box and has two levels of attenuation if the signal (often from an active bass) is too high. The reason I chose the active is that it can absorb phoamtom power from the desk - this [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=334"]thread[/url] goes in to this in more detail.

I use an active DI box that can be phantom powered or run off a battery.

Two basses One 6x10 cab Two amp heads DI box connected with lead Spare cables Spare speaker leads Spare fuses Spare batteries Tool box with usual stuff (screwdrivers, soldering iron allen keys etc) Pedal board or multiFX Spare patch leads Spare 9v PSU Change of clothes Roadie gloves A plan in case things go wrong. I have a spare for almost every eventuality AND importantly either have the backups plugged in or ready cabled or ready to be used. No point having a backup if it's in the car or not tuned or still in its case. Overkill in 99% of cases but when it comes to interrupting someones wedding music to sort out kit that's failed when they've paid you a fair lump of cash that interruption should be a bare minimum.

Well, seeing as I recommended it in the first place then my choice would be for the Super Redhead but as long as you realise it IS a bit of a beast for transporting. It is a great sound for a Stingray, to my ears anyway.

Nice one Dave - you know it makes sense!

[quote name='bassboy115' post='26726' date='Jul 3 2007, 09:26 PM']Maybe booking out a pub with a field so we can camp... With all the different equipment people own on here im sure we could get together a bit of a marquee and stage/lights etc.... This may sound a bit of a crap idea...but its just an idea[/quote] Perfectly feasible and camping is a good idea, though you need to consider whether venues have Entertainment licences etc, or whether you apply for a temporary one (covering IIRC up to 500 people) etc. All perfectly possible though.

I think London has only been suggested as an example as it is where Fuink is from. It could just as well be Birmingham, Manchester, Sheffield, Newcastle, whatever. Unless someone can back the whole thing financially then it has to be self funding by the bands. I guess you wouldn't have to bring 20 people but that way it would end up being cost neutral for you. It's fine saying " I'd like to play a gig in London (or wherever) that's well attended but I can't contribute anything financially towards it" but wouldn't we all. Anyway, it's all speculative at this point and would be something that needed to be adressed if it goes further.

Lasted longer than I would have thought!
