. Excellent choice in cabinet. I've made four different fEARful bass cabinets (including a 1515/66/1) and the 1212/6/1 is my favourite. It's the only one I have kept.

. Thanks guys. Yeah, that kind of sounds familiar. Who was the guy who ran it? Do you remember?

. Hi guys, Sorry to be so vague. There's probably several different ones, but here goes.... I'm trying to recall who it was who used to specialize in Rickenbacker parts about 10 years ago in the US (not Rickenbacker the company). I bought pickups for my 4001 from them.They had all sorts of...

. The only change to sound it will make is when you put your beer on top of it at a gig. It'll be less muffled as the bottle contacts the cab.

. I used to absolutely love my all tube Fender Superbassman. It weighed a ton and sounded awesome at home. I found that I really couldn't tell all that much difference between it and the Genz Benz Shuttlemax 12.0 I also owned, in a loud band context, during rehearsals. When I had to cut back to...

. After building four different fEARful cabinets, including the monster 1515/66/1, I ended up settling on the 1212/6/1. (2 x 12" drivers, with a 6" and tweeter) It's the only one I still have. I reckon it gives the best bang for the buck/size.

. I have, over the past few weeks, re-discovered Talking Heads. I've been playing the vinyl albums of theirs back in the 80s and loving them once again.

. Rickenbacker 4001 Fender US Precision Gibson ES-335

. I have it it at the beginning of the chain. Why process all those super low frequencies through the pedals when you're going to filter them all out at the end anyway? Process the frequencies that you want in your sound, not the ones you don't want!

I just run a good, hot bath and throw the whole bass in. Cleans everything that way.

. A blonde Rickenbacker 4005 for me! http://www.justguitars.com.au/vintage-guitars-for-sale-classic-collectable/000451/828-02-rickenbacker-405-bas-1979-seventies-sixties-original-case.jpg

. Noice!

. I haven't played much bass at all for a couple of years now, but I seem to recall being impressed by its versatility, mainly the fact that you can pick and choose the effects and amp simulations stored within it using Stompshare. Around then I was doing a bit of home recording, so I'd install...

*than ;-)

. Thank you!! I've never noticed that. (Now I feel dumb!) Cheers, Greg
