I managed to meet up with mike f, big Jim, dood and a couple of others Left with a significant sized hole in my pocket, but with some awesome gear! I was really impressed with Sheldon Dingwall and his amazing super p! I'm already in talks with my luthier about a fanned project! Was very fortunate to see the entwhistle buzzard too. I was very chuffed to see the new ashdown Nate Mendel od, and the pino octave pedals. Very nearly bought a gene Simmons axe bass, but thought the wife would have had something about it. Once she'd seen the picture, she said I should have bought it! Who'd have thought that? 8) I took a young student of mine and he now is looking for a job to earn bass tokens! The only disappointment for me apart from the noise issues, was that some of the more mainstream manufacturers were conspicuous by their absence. What a perfect opportunity wasted by fender, Marshall, dean.........

Bought a rack bag from nick. A really honest and stand up guy to deal with! Cheers nick!

On the train heading up now All in black, black hat See you there

Bought a pedal from Alan. Stupidly easy deal. Paid on Thursday afternoon, pedal arrived Friday morning I would happily buy from Alan again anytime Cheers mate

Bass - big yes Price- no no no

My twitter is @downs_chris if anyone is interested. Bigjim- it'll be good to catch up

Hi mike. See you there!

The higher rated 400 series stuff had the gold strip, but the 200 series didn't. The 400 was matched to handle the 400 w head whereas the 200 was matched to the 200w stuff. The 7152 was designed as a "one cab stack"

I'll be heading up definitely on Saturday and possibly sunday too, courtesy of those lovely peeps at Stompbox/ effectspowersupplies.com Look forward to maybe seeing some of you there

I've used the m80 to record a couple of times. It always draws compliments from engineers on the quality and strength of the signal

Definitely fits the bill for your situation. But as mentioned earlier, the hartke bass attack would definitely be worth a good look It's cheaper than the mxr, and the shape function can really be used to thicken the sound considerably. I dug mine out the other day, after using the mxr for years, and I was very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the sound the vxl makes

I have the ebs, mxr, oc2, dod octoplus, and have used the ehx, t Rex, Aguilar, and pog amoung others The trex and pog sounded too digital to my ears, whereas the ebs and mxr are very close. With the different voicings available on the mxr, its my go to octave for most situations, although the ebs gets used for smoother applications. It really is a case of try as many as you can. As you will be aware what sounds good in a bedroom does not always sound good in a gigging mix. Sheps (pantherairsoft) board might serve as inspiration as he plays dubstep and drum and bass live.

Fair enough mate Bad customer service is never a good thing

Have you tried contacting the uk distributors - bill lewington? They may be able to help 01268 413366

They are the newer mb cabs. I really love the way they sound, even though they are 4 ohm cabs and the amps min load is 4! Thanks to some fancy wiring, it all works beautifully! I got them a few years ago now very keenly priced when I had a partial Marshall deal My tech is well built (now!), and quite young too! He also has a sack barrow ;-)

I think you mean- " smells like teen spirit"

Grab the mike and take the pee. You will probably find over time they will do it less and less

As another full timer - I always take a pre/ di like the m80, tuner and a light gritty drive like the hardwire tube od or my dod fx91, although it depends on the gig I do tend to build a pedal rig according to the band- one of my bands is pretty much bass >amp, whereas most of the others require a little more 'interesting' sounds

It's not that hard altogether. I teach it as a party piece post grade 6. The hardest part is tracking down an old Morley wah to make it sound 'right' through an amp ( although it sounds great clean too!)
