Take an indulgent bass solo whilst they bicker!  :wink:

Have you tried increasing the bass and mid controls....?

Sometimes all it takes is an EQ tweak

Yep of course, mids are on full for most of the time (the controls hardly even make any difference on the HRDx for some reason), but the bass just gets farty alot of the time so I tend to have that low.. Sambo I am jealous  :(

Tom before you shell out money try tilting the angle of your amp towards you like a monitor. I used to do that with my old Peavey and it really made a big difference. If this has already been suggested then sorry!

Yeah this is what I currently do, it does help make it more cutting but then I get the harsh bit of the speaker right in my ears  :lol:

Probably doesnt help that the other guitarist is using a halfstack though, so I might get a stand just to get my speaker the same level as his so it doesnt "blend" with the bass on the floor so much if that even makes sense..
