Any Funky Organ music/musicians/lessons/videos etc. you recommend? I'm talking Funky Hammond Organ type stuff rather than church pipe organ*. I find the Hammond an odd one as when done well (e.g. Funk, Reggae, Rock) it can sound great and very cool. But when done badly (e.g. Ballads, Christian rock, and Muzak type cheesy covers) it can sound quite nauseating and decidedly un-cool! I've started a playlist what I consider the cool stuff: *(but add any Julian Clary style 'Big Organ' double entendres if you really must!)

What 1" compression tweeter and crossover unit should I put in my cab?
itu replied to Dev R's topic in Amps and Cabs
If you drive the elements with the same program (not in stereo) there's no need for the divider. Hopefully both are in the same phase. It is easy to check that with a 9 V battery: if both elements move to the same direction when you connect the battery to the input, all's good. If there's a grille, put a pencil or chopstick (dull, not a sharp one) against the element and feel the direction. -

I've have always had a really strong ear which I guess is why I gravitated to fretless but I will still work out charts with my bass as reference the same way that Mohini did. Sometimes I will work the chords out on the first listen but I will hear the chord or note and know what it is through pitch and then go back and write it out after. I was just amazed at the other girl gushing over that technique when I do that all the time and just assumed thats what everybody did. I thought she was just trying to be dramatic and play up to the camera 🤣

Now priced at £325 - I have to go to the Post Office every day this week so discounting the trip to save me an extra journey later! ... I've been collecting and pedal-testing solidly since COVID but a lot's been happening this year and, as my priorities are changing, it's time to start letting some of these pedals go, including those that six months ago it would have been unthinkable selling. I recently listed a couple of Doom 2s, one in Cosmic finish and a high gain unit in Jade Sparkle. This time I've got a Bronze Age unit on the block from the March 2025 edition of 111 for £360. The unit is the standard gain model and is basically new in box. The price includes Royal Mail Special Delivery UK postage. I'm not really looking for trades at this point but there are a handful of pedals I'm curious about: COG T-70 v2; Hamstead Subspace GE, and Chase Bliss Spectre.

There was a recent post somewhere on the forum about a battery tester which plugs directly into the jack socket. I can't remember where now, but it may be of some use. I've had a quick look but can't find it. -

Just seen a clip of British Lion and it looks like 'arry's got either a new bass or a new refin, (or at least one I've not seen him with before) but it's not the 50th Anniversary job.

Hi all, Here we have my Yamaha DBR10 powered PA speaker/monitor. Bought new in July/ August 2024 and used on less than 10 gigs. Still have the manuals somewhere too! Selling as I'm going back to using cabs, as light and convenient as this has been! Here's the blurb from Yamaha; The DBR10 Active PA speaker features the same Yamaha state-of-the-art DSP technology inherited from its predecessors, ensuring superior performance and versatility, and safe, consistent operation. The DBR10 can project deep bass, clear midrange and accurate high frequencies to the outer-most edges of a very wide coverage area and can boast 700W of power. The design incorporates an optimised 50° wedge angle for floor monitoring use and is also, for its size, the most portable powered speaker currently offered by Yamaha. Max Power700W Maximum SPL129dB Frequency range55Hz ~ 20kHz LF10" cone HF1" diaphragm CoverageH90 x V60 Weight 10.5Kg Condition wise there are some scuffs on the plastic where it's been on the floor as a monitor, but the grille etc is unmarked. Also, it's not really been pushed at all and I've used the built in 70hz HPF at all times. Don't have the ability to post this, but will meet up anywhere really within reason. I'm based in Moreton in Marsh on the Oxfordshire/Gloucestershire/Warwickshire border. Any questions, feel free to ask!

What 1" compression tweeter and crossover unit should I put in my cab?
Dev R replied to Dev R's topic in Amps and Cabs
Hi. Thank you all for your inputs. @stevie I tried bypassing the low filter straight to drivers but still clipping. @Bill Fitzmaurice I did use the WinISD program so probably this is where the fault lies. I have attached a diagram of my cabinet measurements. One thing I didn't build into the cab was a dividing shelf between the 2 drivers! Could this be my problem?. Thanks -

If you have a multimeter, you could check to see if there's still a current drain when the jack plug is disconnected. Just unclip one side of the battery and connect the multimeter, on a low current range, between battery and clip. -
Hah, just realised this is my venue Riff Factory! I love your set mate, great band!

High quality fuzz with some great sounds including Velcro tearing gated fuzz for some synthy action plus more traditional fuzz noises. In the original box with some feet and a sticker. Velcro’d on the bottom plus free of charge carpet fluff. I’m trying to free up cash for a BassRig 15 so not a massive interest in trades / part-ex unless there’s a Cioks DC7 or a GigRig QMX4 involved.
