The Norfolk special -
I used to have a Zilla 2x12 which was great. Not Barefaced light, but still manageable. Completely customisable and the guys there were spot on.

Hi guys. Here it is, my 74 fender jazz. Incredible sounding bass and the easiest bass I've ever played. Let's start with the neck. As most of your are aware, 74 was the first year they did the maple/pearl block inlays. And I think the last year before going to 3 bolt necks. What makes this one so damn good as that it was made by herb gastelum the neck guru of fender for 52 years! The neck is stamped herb g. It has had a brass nut installed at some point in its career. The body is sunburst as you can see with the usual dings you'd expect from a 52 year old bass. Stamped H Ferry who was another well known fender employee. It has had a modification back in the day, someone cut out for a bigger pickup to the neck position. This sits behind the pick guard and has not changed tone in anyway. The bridge has been upgraded to a baddass 2. This looks like a very old modification and seems quite common with older fenders. The pickups have been changed, I would say sadly, but these sound unbelievable so although not original it is the sweetest fender I've ever heard, maybe sweetest bass ever heard! They are hand wound pickups made by Ben lindsay in the USA. From what I read he is considered one of the best winders? Completely silent, but sound amazing. Scratchplate doesn't seem to be original as I think they were black. But has some age to it. This has been a tough one to price as I think an all original 74 would be worth 3.5k or so. Ive put it up for what I feel is fair.

Great advice, even if the owner/writer is a bloody a**hole.

This is the one @chris_b mentioned - a flipping bargain and hopefully relatively close:

The Beyerdynamic DT 700 Pro X is way better than the two you mentioned (I own one and tested the other two before choosing it). I also own an excellent Meze Audio 99 Classics Walnut/Gold (my favourite headphones) and an AKG K702 (excellent for mastering, but a tad aggressive for simply listening to music).

Wow! Great work, Chris. Not heard that before.

One of the best 212 cabs I've heard/owned was a Bergantino CN212. A fantastic tone. I believe there's a Berg HD212, an evolution of the CN cabs, in the classifieds. IMO well worth checking out.

Looking for recommendations for a good 212 4ohm cab that’s not Barefaced kind of price Ideally not heavy and it would be used as a single gigged cab In the past I’ve owned Ampeg SVT212AV which ok but so heavy Vanderkley 212 was lovely ( should of kept it ) Any suggestions ??

I like it. 6 tuner knobs, 5 strings, 4 tuner posts. -
Ain’t that the truth 👍

Good old Beyer DT770s (or 990s for more money) do fat bass very well. Closed back cans will tend to give fuller bass, whereas open backs are more airy.
