  1. As well as the PF-115 and the PF-210 there is also the PF-112HLF which looks rather interesting and not too expensive at the moment.
  2. I briefly owned a 2x10 Portaflex cab. I found it bulky and heavy. Didn't like the sound either but that's a very personal thing. I think there are some much better and lighter cabs on the market which will give you better results.
  3. I'm looking to replace my bulky Boss TU-2 tuner pedal with a new compact pedal. So far I've identified the Mooer Baby Tuner and the Korg Pitch Black PB-Mini. Are there any others and which is the most reliable/accurate?
  4. Use an NLF4 wired 1+/2+ at the amp end and NLF2 wired 1+/1- at the cab end. You can get NLF4 Speakons with coloured shells so pick a colour that makes it obvious that it's different and also label that end of the cable.
  5. Sorry to hear this Den. You guys had quite a following down there. Good luck with the new venture.
  6. I'm sure that I have one that I don't need. Will check in the morning.
  7. Oooh this takes me back. I had one of these from 1964 until 1967. Are those the original tuners? Could you provide a closeup of the area at the front of the body above the neck where all those screws are showing. I don't remember mine being like that.
  8. I used to run an Epifani UL310 (5.33-ohms) on a QSC PLX-1600 which was fine bridged at 4-ohms.
  9. My new Gig Rig had its first run out at the SE Bass Bash. 100-watts of old-school valve bassness. Thanks to @silverfoxnik for the photo.
  10. It was a most interesting and entertaining day. If anyone wants to have a try of the Handbox WB-100 then please get in touch.
  11. 21-fret bass guitar neck. New and unused. Maple with rosewood fingerboard. 38mm nut. 64mm heel. Note this is NOT a straight replacement for a regular Fender jazz or Precision 20-fret neck. Suit custom build bass or someone with Lutherial skills.
  12. Nice. This brings back memories of the late Jet Harris and "Diamonds" and "Scarlett O'Hara".
  13. I'm bringing some speaker leads and an instrument lead for the various shoot-outs. Once used they can be added to the raffle.
  14. There is! I'm bringing it with my Berg NV115 cab but anyone who is interested in one can try it with their own speakers.
  15. Just sold a Hipshot bridge to Paul. A good no fuss transaction. Thanks Paul.

  17. It is possible to take apart and rebuild CT dual pots. You need to get a dual 250K/500K and the matching singles of the required values, strip them all down remembering what goes where and rebuild very carefully.

    Another +1 for the Epifani UL502.

  20. +1. It sorts me out for Summer of 69, The Wall and Superstition.
  21. Are they 1/4-inch solid shaft or splined?
  22. What type of knobs are you needing? Photos of the old ones?
  23. I would suggest that they are 2 for each earpiece. You'd need to check with a meter to find out which is which. Then you'd have to check which is hot and which is cold so the two earpieces are in phase - probably a matter of trial and error. When you've worked that out you can solder on a new plug. The other way is to send them to me and I'll see what I can do.
  24. If not sold this will be on sale at the SE Bass bash on the 29th.
  25. Having tried many different strings over the years I am currently using Sadowsky Blue Labels. They have great tone and medium tension. However in that everlasting search for the ultimate tone I'm always interested to try something new. Maybe NYXL strings will take me to that tone nirvana. I will only know if I try them.
