i heart you guys

I know I wasn't on that list, but I live close to Alabama if you ever wanna yam.

Thanks! I'm hoping it will feel real nice and play well. y'all know how it is

I have a '78 Musicmaster (well, I have separated the neck and body for other things) with one of those blade pickups in it. It's a pretty sick bass. The neck is pretty hefty, so you shouldn't feel super uncomfortable if you're used to a P neck contour.

And the pickup swap really helps bring back the tone. Mine is like a Dimarzio with crazy amount of output. Easily twice as loud as my Mustang basses.

You'll probably like it. I even love that natural finish, which is usually not my thing.

When I got my 400+ I tried it through a GK 15 and the GK acted like a dog that had been kicked feeling sorry for it's self.. poor little thing

What kind of cab did you end up with?

There's a dude in OK selling a Mesa cab at a killer price. Problem is it's a 4 hour drive. UGH.

I have a Mesa 1x15 that I use for most stuff It's light, loud, clear, sounds great, really I want another… I also use a SWR 1X18 that I've had for ever… still sounds cool and is massive… I want another one of those two.. damned local pickup only fuckers I don't want a new one! I want one like mine

because cute as all hell -



BECAUSE CUTE AS ALL HELL -

Found a used Mesa 4x12 Rectifier cab in my local area. Dude only wants 300 for it. Shit it's worth it.

One thing that confuses me about Mesa though so far is they don't take Speakon cables. Weird.

Isn't that a guitar cab?
The rectifier is a guitar head...

SHIT! I think you're right! Well fuck. Gotta call the guy back. That sucks. I didn't even notice that.

That's not necessarily a deal breaker, jwar.

edit -- speakons, that is.

Well. My Mesa head doesn't come with a speakon connection either I noticed? Weird as hell. Here's a pic.

Not having speakon cables is a major plus to me.

Can't fucking stand those things.

Same hurr.

I never really cared one way or the other about whether I use speak on or normal 1/4".
