@Geddys nose It's not. The middle cone is offset to the side. The enclosure is the same size as a Super Twin in height and width but only as deep as a Two10 / Four10. It has tilt back wheels. Tweeter is optional.

Anything as long as it's black.

I bought my first BF cab because of the weight. Nobody else had anything anywhere near that light. I had just had a load of hernia related surgery so I bought on weight alone and was just happy that I liked the sound too. The introduction of very light cabs by BF was really proof of concept to other makers who slowly followed. Although I am still amazed Darkglass released really heavy cabs a few years ago. Then nobody bought them so they got discontinued and replaced with lighter models. Of course now there are weight competitors. GR are really light, the new Ampeg Venture stuff is very lightweight too. That's been a great advance across the board. My favourite cab in the world is still the Marshall VBC412 but I am not dealing with 110lb cabs ever again. My little stack of One10 and One10T sounds great and very similar. TBH though I never owned them at the same time so I don't know how close they really are.

As it’s called a 4th I bet it’s designed to go with the Three10
-
Never seen that before! The AMT Legend series guitar pedals are phenomenal though.
-
No. TBH I didn't ask that as I have to save up anyway! I don't buy gear on credit.

But significantly narrower and taller as the Super Twin is a lot narrower and taller than the MB cab.

I'm quite excited about the Three10 so I emailed Alex. I asked him if it was going to be vertical with a tweeter / tiltback wheels etc. His answer: Yes, vertical with tiltback wheels and a tweeter. We've had some alternate impedance drivers made to solve the annoying impedance problem! It's not going to be three 10"s in a vertical line, it'll be two above each other and one in the middle off to the side - makes for a much more sensibly shaped cab and still has great dispersion because the middles of the drivers (where the mids/highs come from) aren't side by side. Same height and width as a Super Twin, same depth as a Two10S/Four10/Six10. Same wheels and handles as a Six10. Should be v cool! Best regards, Alex This is going to cost me money. And possibly my marriage!

Who's finally happy with their rig?

I was. But today I read that Barefaced are going to make a Three10 soon. Damnit. -
So - be honest. How many of you offered to have sex with Alex as suggested?
-
I've been hassling him for a 3x10 for ages! He kept telling me it wouldn't be worth ordering the different cones to get the right impedance. I had given up and bought another One10T instead. If it is the specs I asked for - vertical, with tiltback wheels and a tweeter - then I need to start saving up again.

I went from a pair of One10 to a Super Twin 2x12 and now back to a pair of One10, one with a tweeter. I prefer the more vintage tone of their 10 inch cabs. I’ve never got close to the volume capabilities of either set up. For me anyway, a pair of Two10 would be overkill. If the pair of One10 isn’t loud enough then my hearing is at risk and the PA should be doing the heavy lifting. So no doubt at some point I’ll buy the Six10T because I’m an idiot.

That's great news! I think people really underestimate how much difference a good teacher can make.

Oof! That's a great price! -
It's an amazing pedal, with dozens of sounds but I find myself going back to my old favourite pedals so it is not getting used. Do not be fooled by the "Bass Distortion" name on the front - all One Series SA drive pedals can load all the drive sounds. The other pedals (LA Lady over drive and Kingmaker Fuzz) are the same inside. Even more - it can be set for dual drives - stacked or in parallel and there's a deep dive EQ system as well. The smartphone app works with Android or iOS with a headphone socket. For newer iphones you'll need to get a lightning to headphone adapter. TOP TIP - phone volume needs to be 100% when using the app to transmit the data. Or you can plug into a PC. The app and the desktop editor are free and there's loads of tones written by users in the cloud. It comes with: A longer smartphone cable that I bought separately - it's just a 1/4 inch to mini adapter cable to plug into a smart phone headphone output. Nowt special. The official power supply (as I have now found it). It might come with: A USB cable for PC connection if I can find one lying about. I think my kids have stolen every cable I own. These retail at about £190 Selling at £120 including UK tracked delivery, or near offer. PRICE DROP: £110.00

Selling a Boss LS-2. This is the greatest utility pedal in the world. It allows signal chains to be swapped, different levels to be applied to different loops, but my favourite use has been to use as a clean blend or parallel path FX chain. It can mix dirt with clean (and set the levels of each properly) or maybe mix dirt in parallel with a chorus or phaser, or whatever you like. Has a few chips and marks, and there is velcro on the bottom. No box. £65 including delivery in the UK. -
For Sale: Boss SY-1 Synth pedal - *SOLD*

Gone! -
I have a keyboard synth now so this is going unused. It's great fun and it tracks very well. It's far less fiddly than the App based synth pedals. No need to get your phone out for adjustments! The previous owner took the rubber bottom off to put velcro on, but the rubber bottom is included with the box for it can be refitted if necessary. All works as it should. I'm looking for £105 including insured Special Delivery in the UK. Thanks

12 year thread bump has to be a record!
-
It’s easier to dial out the colour. There’s a setting in the manual that even with the blend at 100% it sounds very close to just a pass through. I think it’s called the “Jaco” suggestion. Doesn’t sound anything like Jaco!
-
That’s my view. We all play better when we are comfortable. What increases comfort is different for all of us. Scale length, string tension, nut width, neck shape, pick or fingers etc etc. Some piz DB players have a low action to use the board as a ramp so it’s hardly new.

Some people think that about compressors.

Boss BC-1X Compressor. (About £180) Caline Wine Cellar (BDDI clone) (£25) Tuner. One Spot daisy chain power supply.

I was really interested right up until it said "ELO".
-
The stop fingers digging in too far. They can allow a more even attack. You kind of draw your finger across the surface of the ramp and the string is just in the way. I tried them years ago when I discovered Billy Sheehan putting epoxy on his P pickups to make a ramp surface and I really liked them. At about 3mins10secs you can see
