For sale 2 x GK cx 2x10 bass cab in excellent condition .Any trial.Pick up from Stoke possible meet within reasonable distance. Would prefer to sell together. Please note no trades. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Gallien-Krueger amps might not be the first name you think of when you think bass but you might be surprised how many of your favourite bands have a GK locking down the low end of their sound. Flea uses them, Duff McKagen is on their artist list and Jazz legend Dave Holland has one to amplify his double bass. A quick look at the sheer variety of artists will give you a clue as to how versatile these amps are. Here's what Gallien-Krueger say about the CX 210 Bass Cab The CX Series enclosures are the perfect compliment to the MB Series heads. The compact design and light weight allow you to create the ideal head and cabinet combination for any application without sacrificing portability. All CX cabinets are equipped with proprietary ceramic drivers designed and manufactured in the U.S.A. by GK, quality high frequency transducers, High Power and ¼” speaker connectors, internally damped and tuned plywood cabinet construction and rugged flip up side handles for easy loading. Design Sure Lock Lock Stacking - A unique foot and corner system designed to lock together when cabinets are stacked. Durable Portability - Tough vinyl covering protected with metal corners provide lasting protection. Plywood construction, flip grip side handles and compact design make this cabinet a dream to load. Advanced Crossover - A three position tweeter attenuator for control of tweeter level. One professional twist lock speaker connector for no compromise performance and one common 1/4 inch input. Technology Driver by GK - Special drivers designed just for this cabinet, featuring edge wound aluminum 2 inch voice coils, manufactured in the GK USA factory. This design delivers unprecedented punch and efficiency uncharacteristic for a 10 inch speaker. Bracing & Ports - Chambered design with each speaker in its own chamber to prevent tone robbing standing waves and sound leakage through the cabinet walls. Critically Damped - Our design team tuned the port for optimum performance while coupled to the cabinets specific designed speaker. The port coupled with a specific jute blend of damping material provides the right amount of damping at the right frequencies, for optimum response.

Double bass rebuild - not for the faint of heart!
Stub Mandrel replied to The Guitar Weasel's topic in EUB and Double Bass
I found this... -
I can’t - after the sound I heard through the amp, and out front (my son was playing while I listened) - I don’t think I’ve any need to replace the Fishman. The Tech21 SH1 - with blend set fully clean - is a great double bass preamp.

An interesting fact about internal threads... all the strength is in about 4 threads. That gives more metal cross section than the core of the screw, plus elastic deformation concentrates the stress in a tiny portion of the engaged threads. This is why screws strip far more frequently than nuts. You will find that inserts with a deep external thread are very strong, however as they put the wood in tension they may not be ideal. Your idea of using spike nuts, that will spread the load over more timber and put it in compression is sound. -
Pfft, you guys and your "green" rooms. Next you'll be telling me you get to play on stages.
-
Yes it does - the output sockets are balanced when you use a TRS cable. Electrically no different to using an XLR connection.

I meant 'tiny' in the context of proper bass speakers, I should have used 'small'.

The future of amps & cabs - stage props only?
Chienmortbb replied to SimonK's topic in Amps and Cabs
The one thing you cannot reproduce through IEMs or amp less through the PA, is the trouser flap. Stand in front of a well designed front ported bass cab at volume, feel the noize. -

Some wild takes being spouted on here veering into misinformation/disinformation. Amps are fine, they're fun to use and if you enjoy the preset eq voicing, the way your cab reproduces that and can hear it well enough on all the stages you play then great, enjoy yourself. I have a traditional bass rig I very much like (two of them in fact) and I enjoy using them at rehearsals/dep gigs. IEMs are fine, they're fun to use and with a digitial desk you can eq your bass however you want it, if you know what you're doing the scope for sculpting your sound is staggering and that's before you add in any external preamps, pedals or bass specific processing units. You have consistency on every stage you play no matter if you're stuck in a corner or have acres of space, the level of control is unsurpassed and in no time you can get a great personalised mix at whatever volume you choose. For all live work with my main band I'm going through the PA straight from my DI so it doesn't matter to me, I can do either but always pick IEMs for sound quality and practicality. For cramped pub stages where you're right on top of your amp they're a total gamechanger. The first time I saw bands playing without cabs on stage it did look a little weird but after a couple of times I didn't notice it at all, just another way to gig which often has significant advantages over the using amps for individual backline.

You can or can't see it replacing your Fishman Platinum Pro?

Indeed. Those seem to be the reissue relic set now used on Roadworn and CS relic instruments.
