Nodd Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Be patient all shall come to ye-bay! I have just picked up a Walkabout Scout 115 I won on an auction on e-bay! I actually felt guilty picking it up from the previous owner, a nice guy and helpful too. can't wait to try it out tonight. tried it briefly when i picked it up, but just couldn't torture the guy, didn't even bring my own bass such was my guilt. Hadn't played for ages and gave away my brilliant late 70's Orange - 120 graphic and 4x12" - a heavy set-up to a friend in lieu of a wedding present over 20 years ago. I have been using a little Aria Loco combo 2x6" with an extension 12" for gigs in a Jazz/R'n'B band, great tone - minimum hassle. recently i have been using a Roland DB700 which is fab, programmable/switchable channels, great sounds, but just a tad too unmanageable for my feeble bones. i really missed a bit of 'real' grind and so...I have been lurking in hope of a reasonably priced walkabout after being blown away by the sound of a 112 version even though all i could try it with was a cheap Tobias plank. Pics and report to follow...pant, pant, drool, drool.... :brow: much dusting of Fender, polishing of Bongo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wateroftyne Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Excellent! I'm sure you'll love it... ..be prepared to roll the bass back a bit! Oh, and.. buy yourself a dolly-cart thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nodd Posted September 16, 2009 Author Share Posted September 16, 2009 I saw that on one of your posts... Do they do a matching bath chair? wheel spokes covers to match the speaker, fabric cushion in black tolex? ...now where is my Sanatogen???

But I think we got away with it with the audience - just about anyway. The Walkabout sounded great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
