2 x 8 Ohm cabs will present a 4 Ohm load to the amp.

There's a thread in this very forum on a 12" cab build. Well worth a read. The current (G3) barefaced 12" driver is, AIUI, a tweaked Eminence Kappalite. Previous Barefaced 12's used an off-the-shelf Kappalite 3012HO I believe.

Small but important point...The OP's smaller cab isn't a 110. It's a pre gen3 (1x12) Midget - a quite different beast. There's some info re: the Compact/Midget pairing at https://barefacedbass.com/product-range/midget.htm

Can't say I blame him.

Plonk a nice heavy amp on top. Sorted

The things people find to fret about...

That's exactly how I do it. Not sure why, and for me it's nothing to do with orchestra's.

No, not just you.

That's fine if they'll play ball. When I contacted them about my sticky stand they weren't even slightly interested...

Once, in the '80's, my Acoustic head went up in smoke. Literally. No spare. I've carried a backup ever since, and never needed it...

A bit of a moot point if you use a debit/credit card, as they don't debit the card until the goods are despatched.

Removed, after thinking straight...!

Mine too. Zoom B3 with either a dedicated patch, or one of the 'virtual pedals' assigned to an EQ 'pedal'. Just mute eveything to swap basses.

EQ pedal? Multi-fx unit? Loads of possibles, none of 'em necessarily correct/best/easiest...
