  1. [quote name='Skezza' timestamp='1343323216' post='1749003'] I have a little mark 2 that I would be prepared to do a trade with I am in staffordshire skez [/quote] Cheers Skez, I may well be interested in that, but would prefer an LM3 if it came up. I'm valuing the combo at about £400 so trades will need to be in that region with cash adjustment either way. I'll be getting my new cab some time next week, so I should have made up my mind by the week after Cheers, Eude
  2. [quote name='pantherairsoft' timestamp='1343404674' post='1750326'] Of course dude... [/quote] You're a leg end. Thanks dude
  3. I've grown to like the shape of the LG. I'm not sure what it'd be like to wear, but I love the quirkiness of it, kinda like the Thumb Bass. Shep, once you've got this in your sweaty mitts, would you take some snaps of it on so we can see the advantages of the shape for us little fellas? Cheers, Eude
  4. May still have my Promethean 5110C Combo too, but may shift that along, will have to see what happens with that one...
  5. I'm definitely keeping this now, can't find anything out there that does all this, even at twice the price. Hey guys, just a feeler for now, not sure what I'm going to do yet, but just want to gauge interest. I've got an Ibanez Promethean 5110C Combo that I might put up for sale or trade. It's a removable 500W class D amp head in a 1x10 combo. It's an insanely flexible and loud little box, which is held in high regard and now that Ibanez have clearly gone mental, they're not making them anymore, so they're quite hard to come by. I've used this at home, predominantly for practice, but it has had the occasional outing where it easily kept up with a drummer, can probably be used for a non-metal gig up to about 100 folks without PA and then on stage for monitoring purposes when a PA is necessary, and that's all just in it's standard format, you can always whip the head out, or hook up an extension cab and you've got a 500W rig... Check out this review/comparison for more info >> [url="http://www.bassplayersunited.com/2011/04/gear-review-ibanez-promethean-combo-5110-vs-genz-benz-3-0-310t/"]http://www.bassplaye...-benz-3-0-310t/[/url] I've owned it since new, it's in perfect nick, bar a very small quirk in the finish, about the height of a 5p, which was on it when it shipped. I've got the annoying bag for it, and the original tags and instruction manual. Got a new 1x12 cab coming in, so I might like to shift this combo in favour of a MarkBass head, or potentially a GB Streamliner, I'd imagine with a bit of cash your way. Sorry but I won't be inetersted in anything else, just a MB head or a GB Streamliner, I don't want/need anything else. As far as a sale price is concerned, I reckon £400 is fair, but I'd be open to offers as long as they're not offensive or insane. I can provide photos of the combo if something comes of this thread. I'm in South London, well South Croydon/Sanderstead and could possibly meet in London, deliever within reason for costs, or courier, happy to discuss all that carp. Like I said, still a feeler, I might opt to keep this, once I've seen how it works with the new cab, but I do know that a MarkBass head will work very well with it, and I'm mad keen to have a go of a Streamliner. I'll have a clearer picture next week me thinks. Any questions, feel free to ask, or shoot me a PM. Cheers, Eude
  6. Room for one more? I live in darkest Surrey these days, well Sanderstead anyway, and so far it looks like I have the 29th of September free. I can bring along a couple of ACG basses to show off, plus a few pedals and odds and sods. I'm also going to be the proud owner of one of the prototype EAD Foundation 112 cabs very VERY soon, not soon enough of course. I'll be able to bring it along for you guys to have a go if you fancy? Eude
  7. [quote name='51m0n' timestamp='1343293897' post='1748329'] I think they look bloody brilliant to be perfectly honest. I'd love to hear the stacked 112s, any chance of you getting to the SE Bass Bash with some??? [/quote] OK mate. I can exclusively reveal that I'll be taking delivery of one of the EAD 112 Prototypes very soon. It's just the one 1x12 but it's the best 1x12 cab I've ever seen and heard before in my life. I will try my bestist to make it along to the SE Bash so some of you peeps can give it a go. Sound good? Eude
  8. [quote name='eude' timestamp='1343305171' post='1748588'] I'm very lazy. Where's the info on this bash?... [/quote] Lazy and blind. Found it...

  10. [quote name='DirkThrust' timestamp='1343231657' post='1747484'] [i]Has anyone got an idea of the weight of these?[/i] [/quote] An easy one hand lift, I'd guess about 35 lbs, or there abouts. Remember that's the prototypes though, so they might end up a little lighter.
  11. [quote name='Musicman20' timestamp='1343227580' post='1747384'] These cabs just go to show that small manufacturers CAN make a professional looking cabinet without compromise. These look stunning as well as having impressive design. [/quote] I've got a hunch you'd love these cabs Gareth, they do lovely muscley girth you get from an Aggie cab with hifi definition and clarity without that slightly weedy boutique cab effect. Eude
  12. [quote name='largo' timestamp='1343209805' post='1746958'] There does come a point though where he has to "make the leap" .... even the larger manufacturers have different releases of cabs whilst they improve their design [/quote] Well hopefully there'll be a leap soon. I'm as anxious about these being available as the next man, in fact it's arguably worse for me, as I've now had an extensive go of one and I'm 100% sure I want (need) one! As soon as I know anything else I'll keep this thread updated Eude
  13. [quote name='largo' timestamp='1343208829' post='1746940'] Is it just me or have the 12" cabs been in pre-production for almost a year now..... [/quote] True, but this is a solo venture for Dave, he has to be sure he's got the right product and that it is viable for him to produce. Like most start ups, it's a thing on the side, born out of a passion for good gear and frustration at what's on offer from other manufacturers. At least to start off with, he can't throw money at this for R&D like Ashdown or Genz Benz, so it takes time to work stuff out, build it and then test it. It has been a fair while, but I believe this is the 3rd, or possibly 4th iteration of these prototypes, it's not something you can rush. If you're genuinely interested in this kind of cab, I truly believe that these will be well worth the wait Eude
  14. Just a quick bumperoo. I played through one of these 1x12s on Saturday and it was an absolute revelation. Simply the best sounding 1x12 I've ever heard. It reminded me a lot of the famous Aguilar GS112, with loads of amazing low end extension but with all the clarity and poke you would expect from a boutique cab, like a Bergantino, Markbass or Vanderkley. The best of both worlds. As with the EAD 2x12 cabs the design, fitting and finish is second to none too, and this was still a prototype! These EAD cabs easily wipe the floor with anything I've ever used before, in every department, and although there's a lot of high end cabs out there I haven't had the pleasure of trying yet, I reckon the smart money would be on one of these EADs. Absolutely amazing cabs! Eude
  15. Well I had a good shot of an ACG J Type 5 string at the weekend and I'm very VERY impressed! The bass was quite light, well lighter than I thought it would be and the body was cleverly downsized from a regular jazz. Build quality is exactly what I've come to expect from ACG, simply flawless, every little detail well thought out and executed. The 5 bolt neck joint in particular was very nice, almost complete unobtrusive too, not something you usually expect from a Jazz Bass. Balance on a strap was pretty much perfect, the neck was nice and fast and the spacing was nice and comfortable, the whole thing just felt instantly familiar. Sound wise it's pretty much perfect modern Jazz Bass, nice and punchy with lots of sizzle and woof when you need it. The John East preamp gives you everything you would expect or want from an active Jazz Bass. All in, a very successful revision of the classic Jazz Bass, very much brought into the 21st century. A hell of a lot of bass for the money too Eude
  16. I've always found that 12" cabs have a bit more oomph, personally. I only have a little 1x10 combo, for now, but 10" speakers have always left me looking for a bit more natural low end. Like it's been mentioned above, a 2x12 will have a tiny bit more weight to the sound, however, I would happily sacrifice that for the practicality, flexibility and portability of 2 x 1x12 cabs any day. I have fairly limited experience of cabs compared to most folks on here, but the Aggie 1x12 cabs seem to deny the basic principals of physics. The GS112 cabs have incredibly low and solid bottom end, with the sacrifice of a bit of natural midrange, the DB112 cabs have a more low mid grunt to them, plus they're an easy one hand lift and they look pimp! I got away with a 250W LittleMark and a single Aggie GS112 for a good few years and loved it! Oh, and MarkBass gear seems to work very nicely with Aggie stuff too. Be sure to check out the GenzBenz new range of Focus cabs too, they look to be crazy value for money! based on the dimensions, I don't think they'll sound as big as the Aggies, but they might be a better match for a GB head. Just my 2p of course, and keep us posted, with pics! Eude
  17. [quote name='Musicman20' timestamp='1342730259' post='1740239'] Yeah the style and scale suits me, but im now used to 17.5mm spacing...ill have to give it some thought. [/quote] I think the ACG J-Types are 18mm, but the Hipshot bridges do have a degree of adjustability, you could probably get close. [quote name='sime17' timestamp='1342727788' post='1740186'] Quite like those ACG Jazzes Eude- quite a cool angular take on the classic, if a bit skjoldesque. Some nice J5s on the website. Anyone know the scale? Or the price? Would he whip the skinny tuners off and bung some more trad looking cloverleaf ultralights on it I wonder? I can feel GAS coming on. [/quote] They're 34" scale. I love the take on the Jazz shape too, just seems right. As far as price and alternative tuners, give Alan a shout, he couldn't be more approachable. I can answer a fair load of ACG questions too if you just want more info, just shoot me a PM, but I couldn't answer those two questions I'm afraid... ;-) Eude
  18. I love my Promethean, it ticks so many boxes, but they're hard to find at the moment. This has popped up again >> http://basschat.co.uk/topic/161860-tecamp-puma-110-combo/ Does a lot of what the Promethean can do without the removable head, but is a little more "classy". Might be of interest?...
  19. [quote name='RichardH' timestamp='1342699471' post='1739485'] You have a PM. [/quote] Oooo - Interesting...
  20. If you're keen on a 24 fret active jazz, how about an ACG J-Type? Scoop's one is an absolute peach! >> http://www.acguitars.co.uk/Gallery/308/ There's a rather tasty one in stock too >> http://www.acguitars.co.uk/Available/18/ I can certainly vouch for ACGs, although I've not played a J-Type yet, I should hopefully get a noodle on one this weekend, can let you know me thoughts if you want. Cheers, Eude
  21. [quote name='GetYourFunkOut93' timestamp='1342629761' post='1738285'] Im really looking for 2x 112 as I can use it as a stack or just the single cab for small gigs [/quote] Aha! The EAD Foundation 112 >> [url="http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/prosoundhire/foundation-112.htm"]http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/prosoundhire/foundation-112.htm[/url]
  22. What about an EAD cab? >> http://basschat.co.uk/topic/152456-ead-extended-audio-design/ They absolutely kick ass!
  23. Geez! I'd love one of these! If all the offers in the queue fall through and you fancy trading for a Promethean combo and a bit of cash perhaps, let me know... Cheers, Eude
  24. More pics! More Pics! MORE PICS!
