Again here's my beautiful und beloved Euro 5LX. I'm happy it has such a stunning top:D And it sounds so amazing through an Epifani UL502 and a Bergantino AE410!

My Sunday gig was awesome! When I plugged my Coda 5XL into my bass rig the first thing that I noticed was, HOLY COW, I need to turn the volume down. First time playing thru that rig since modding the Coda to 18V. I turned the amp down 2 numbers. Second, the Coda REALLY was cutting thru the mix like a blazing hot Samari sword! :bassist: Love me 18 Volts! It's just MEAN sounding! :D

The OBP-2 at 18v is a totally different circuit.
Like I said, Quintin Berry's signature bass... I had to take the back cover off after playing it. I was so curious to see how Jimmy shoe-horned the USA 18v circuit into that configuration... only to find it was not the USA 18v at all.

But you could have fooled me.
Gave me a whole new respect and outlook regarding the Aguilar JFET circuits.
 
man had to catch up on 9 pages... can't a guy go out for a couple days? lol.... My band had a great weekend of shows. I busted out the GK1001rb in Vegas yesterday because I wasn't loving the Carvin B1500 at fridays gig. I also used Jade... NOTHING beats this bass, why do I even buy other basses? GK and Jade THAT is a tone that kills all tone. Had a great time there should be a recap video coming soon. Until then here is a pic of Defy Tolerance (us) and Bravo Delta (our good friends and tour buddies)

I've just modded both my CRFM and my Euro to 18v. Last night's rehearsal though only used the CRFM and it rocked. Can't wait to use the Euro with the 18v OBP-3 with the band.

sorry the carvin didn't do it for ya! :hmm:
 
Got back some video from last week's reunion show of my old band. 3 camera shoot is nice. Unfortunately, the laptop crashed recording audio, so this is just camera audio.

We had not played together until last year's reunion show in 10 years (singer lives in Hawaii). The club owner wanted us to do another show and flew him in this year, so it was one rehearsal the night before and go. Not too bad considering, LOL.

Played my buckeye NS4 all night.
