Total Watts

  1. BEST BUY I would also like to add these to my best buy list. I started a thread - The Flats are off. Stating i have moved away from my Deep talking La Bella set on my CS 62 Precision. Well I have now traded it for the Bass above, but now discovered La Bella low tension flats, a completely different feel and lovely tone and guess what, they are now on all my basses. crazy world ain't it.
  2. Best Buy It has to be this, the bass was bought on the rebound, I missed a Lakland i wanted. I wasn't looking for one of these but the spec's pulled me in. Light with the deepest bottom end passive. I don't need the active EQ on this. A great endorsement when you get something you didn't want or lust after, but find it to be just what you always needed.
  3. I've Been playing along to Deborah Bonhams version of Superstition, as it is best version I have played and its been years. so found it on Spotify then checking her out on the tube I came across this. How do ya get these three in the same place. https://youtu.be/Q5gc9Yk6OPc?si=8ojqcIw2klDubyv5
  4. Yes my first real bass combo as the amp shown above but as a 15" combo, probably only pushed about 60-80 watts into the one 8 ohm speaker but always seemed loud enough, bought in about mid 80's mine was with Compressor as pictured no flange in sight. I wish i still had the 70's 4x12 Marshal and 100watt guitar head it replaced, it would be worth a fortune now. but +not giggable in my car at the time.
  5. Always wanted one of these, but my flash days have passed so will have to pass, don't want anyone shouting " hey gramps give us a tune on your banana" I'm sure this will be snapped up soon enough.
  6. Thanks for all this input guys, May i just recap 😊 - the reason i have difficulty playing my Mel Bay - Bach for Bass by Josquin des Pres, is that i am still in 4th's tuning, this is a discussion i have had with others many times, but couldn't figure if it would be any easier but never tried re tuning and from all your comments i would have struggled to do so, with existing strings etc. fascinating thread cheers guys
  7. I started on a 77 P Bass, never regretted selling it apart from the price i got £325 in 1993. Then five years ago I thought i needed one again so bought the best i could find a CS 62 relic. Five years on I decided i didn't again, for the same reasons i parted with the first - There are better made basses out there with wider tone flexibility. So I traded it for a Sadowsky NYC with chambered body, quarter sawn flamed maple neck. Best sounding bass i have owned.
  8. This cab has now been traded, sold my Acme low B to( Stuee) last week, but he needs more grunt so agree to let him have this and take the 1x12 back as they were same price.
  9. I know a few people who went along to see you, all good comments back. before reading this. but i'm sure a basschatter on stage made the difference.
  10. 😁 I nearly PM'd you for first dibs. One is definitely staying here.
  11. I'm finally giving up one of my babies. Having got one and amazed with the tone and breadth of Bass, with my 5 string. So got another and run them both with two amps for a while, and latter with a 2ohm amp on Function band gigs. I still use one all the time for big band gigs and home practice, but the other has been sat here for five years now not used. So it is time. !! Acme info Here - https://acmebass.com/speaker-cabinets/the-low-b-112-full-range/ Mine are 4 ohm and both have the tweeter. RATHER NOT POST BUT CAN MEET UP WITHIN SAY 40 MILES.
  12. For sale is my TecAmp 4 x10 Cab ( L 410 -4 ) comes with fitted Rock-solid cover Bought on here just over a year ago, to go with my TecAmp black Jag Amplifier. I have now acquired a TecAmp M212, which still matches my Amp my Band but fits my Car better. I bought this on the reputation of my old 4x12 Techsoundsystem cab i had previously and regretted selling some years back. Light for a 4 x 10 with Neodymium speakers. Just what is required for rock n pop - serious trouser flapping. Good over all condition, musically in good working order. Was previously fitted with Casters to bottom of cabinet, so some scuffing to underneath, but i have returned it to new large rubber feet. See Pics. Spec: Model L 410 - 4 4 ohm. 1200 watts 1" Horn selectable, Freq35 - 19000 Hz, W=64 H=72 D=41cm weight 25kg. As seen in Top photo the cab has been fitted with blue LED light behind grill. I have modified the connection to now have discrete phono L.V. connection to front grill. So the transformer and mains plug is separate. Collection Please...... Can meet up within 40 miles if that helps you.
  13. I used to get all the regular Bass mags and there were articles in the US mag on mains cables and how oxide build up on your plug pins could also affect the tone. So I regularly would use a glass fibre contact cleaning stick to clean up my plungs pins till they shone . There were adverts for oxygen free mains leads at exorbitant prices as well. I did get rather anal there after making up larger mains leads using 2.5mm flex and also amp to cab leads at 4mm oxygen free from HiFi shops. I am over that now but always make sure by amp goes straight in the wall and not via many extension leads. Volt drop at venues, definitely affects your tone particularly in the bass, i have gone into this before on here, when in Marquees just be aware long standard extensions are a tone killers. I have noticed this in Hotels also when the dish washers go on just as you take to the stage, as well as chillers in the Bar cutting in, you can physically hear the change.
