  1. [quote name='tonyf' timestamp='1341756526' post='1723592'] Dave, do you know if Flightcase Warehouse would be able to do an ABS version? [/quote] As far as I am aware ABS cases are mass produced by injection moulded and therefore not suitable for custom builds. [quote name='tonyf' timestamp='1341756526' post='1723592'] If it's not too personal a question, what was the approximate cost on this? [/quote] The basic case was just short of £120. I already had the rack trays which came from a Gator wireless mic rack case. The rest I made.
  2. You mean like this: Case was custom made to my design by Flightcase Warehouse. I drilled the bottom of case to line up with the feet holes in the amp which stands off on spacers. Also drilled a hole in the side to line up with the MB Fusion fan. It fits neatly on top of the Schreoder 1212L and make a wicked compact loud lightweight rig. Will take picture when it stops raining, , and I can retrieve it all from the car. This was version #1. I still have a spare rack case like this for sale but it has no front or rear covers. 3U rack strip at front only and about 300mm deep.
  3. Another excellent deal with Nick. Thanks.
  4. Withdrawn as there has been minimal interest so I'll think I'll fit my J-Retro and start using it again.
  5. [quote name='MoJoKe' timestamp='1341440711' post='1719283'] Try clicking... its a PDF!! [/quote] Then why isn't it a .pdf? Firefox doesn't know what to do with it. Acrobat Reader is not offered as an option.
  6. Welcome Joel [quote] Believe me, no-one is more anal about proofreading errors than me. Some of you may have read my books. When an error makes it into one of them, I’m ready to kill someone! With BGM, the assistant editor and I work really hard to nail any grammar/spelling/punctuation screw-ups before publication. In the new issue (Geddy Lee cover), there’s just one boo-boo that I’ve seen. Ten points for anyone who spots it… [/quote] Ah you mean the one in Alex's article.
  7. A typically suitable switch is [url="http://uk.farnell.com/eaton/7694k4/switch-toggle-4pdt-15a-250v/dp/1383063"]http://uk.farnell.co...250v/dp/1383063[/url] Wired as diagram.
  8. You can make it 2-ohm/8-ohm switchable using a high-current 4-pole change-over toggle switch.
  9. Nick Unfortunately the MM pick-up and the pre-amp work together. If you change the pre-amp to anything other than the MM then you'll lose the coil switching. It is possible to replicate the coil switching using a multi-pole switch but you'll get a volume change between settings and you need to rewire the pickup slightly. i.e. separate the coils and add an extra wire. I went through several combinations (East, OBP3, Duncan, Bartolini) and settled with an Alnico Nordstrand MM5.3 pick-up and a stock MM pre-amp. It works for me.
  10. Recently agreed to buy a Schroeder 1212L from Bob. A faultless and very quick transaction. Cab was depatched the same day and arrived very quickly. Brilliant sounding cab and I'm well pleased.

    Bump for an old friend. Truly an excellent instrument.
  12. [quote name='walbassist' timestamp='1339754306' post='1693700'] Dave is going Schroeder crazy! [/quote] Maybe. I think I might now have the ultimate compact small-footprint rig, ideal for small pubs with small stages.
  13. 100 watts.

  15. Thanks for the comments. Now been looking at the GK Neo210 - the wedge shaped one. That has a good spec, good reviews and quite light so might be a better choice as I can see other uses for it.
  16. We've just put together a house band for one of the local Jams doing one week in three. I don't mind using either my GK MB200 or the MB Fusion but as stage space is at an absolute premium I don't really want to drag the Schroeder 21012 along. I've been looking at low-ish cost/lightish cab(s) and came across quite a lot of discussion and love for the GK 210MBE cabs a few months back. How are folks getting on with them as they still seem to be amazing value for money?
  17. [quote name='largo' timestamp='1338498902' post='1675603'] there you go, I did it .... posted on Ashdown's FB page [/quote] ...and you've won a hat.
  18. perhaps even a comment on their Facebook page
  19. Truly amazing.
  20. [quote name='markstuk' timestamp='1338204437' post='1670698'] very nice.... what the action height at the 13th fret? [/quote] 5/64 on E 3/64 on G
