Dont you love guitarists . . .

Sign in to disble this ad
The guitarist in my band recently bought a JCM900 head (which is cool, beats the hell out of the MG100DFX combo he had), anyways, was looking forward to being able to gig my new rig without it looking daft on stage (8x10 with SVT vs 100 watt marshall half stack), well, its not quite going to happen now, because guess who didnt think of getting a speaker cab . . . guitarists eh?

Hahaha, thats awesome....

Hey I see in your signature that you've got a 6 string Ibanez btb bass, how do you like it? I've got a 5 string btb bass and its sweet. Do you know is the string spacing smaller on the 6 compared to others or is the neck just wider to accomodate that?

David.

BTB's are awsome, the string spacing is 19mm on all of them, they dont really have room to bring those monorail bridges closer together, the neck is hence wider

i'm just like your guitarist. i just bought a trace elliot v6, but i have no speaker either. the amp left me broke, so i will have to wait a bit until i can get a speaker. maybe your guitarist is broke too now, be patient with him and he will get a cab. still plenty of time to find out who can overpower the other. you can still play your svt rig, just don't turn it up to much.

just a general remark about this forum, there seems to be quite a lot of guitarist bashing, but i'm sure that most bass players play guitar too, but on this bforum they don't want to admit that. i suppose this should be a thread of its own though.

I play guitar aswell, im not going to cover that up or anything, and no, he isnt broke

I know i can still use my SVT, i just think its gonna look a tad overkill with an 810 and svt vs a 1x12 combo
