[quote name='Scoop' timestamp='1337791837' post='1665561'] Your love is only right and proper, what with me being the exceptional [and modest] person I am. But videos? Loaning out basses so others can make videos? Pffft! 'Taint natural, mate. [/quote] You can't blame a bloke for trying

[quote name='Warwick_Official' timestamp='1337786441' post='1665458'] Mart: The Rockbass line is fitted with the same pickups and hardware as the German basses, the preamp is a different version. Many of these changes were implemented to assure greater consistency, as well as to offer great quality - even in a budget instrument. Quality control is closely monitored, to prevent any issues of the past arising in the future. Thanks! [/quote] Any plans for a shortscale Thumb Rockbass anytime soon?...

[quote name='Sibob' timestamp='1337696671' post='1664099'] Ah there's not too much more to know - Sunburst Precision with a jazz pickup in 60's position - Lined fretless ebony fingerboard - all other details will place it vaguely as an early 70's reissue I think As I said, not fancy, but quality....and with Doc building it, gonna be lush Si [/quote] Sounds nice mate! Does the Doc build from timber, or does he buy licensed bits and assemble from there?...

[quote name='Sibob' timestamp='1337670916' post='1663584'] Sam wins a nice fresh apple Si [/quote] Nice, you going to treat us to any more info?...

[quote name='GarethFlatlands' timestamp='1337619905' post='1662923'] I can't see a fellow BC'er lumbered with all that work. I'll do a few. You know, just to help out. [/quote] [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1337619948' post='1662927'] I'll hold the camera! [/quote] Can you feel the love Scoop? We'll, finally, be moving on the 31st, so anytime after that would be great Eude

[quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1337616697' post='1662858'] I personally think you should make some videos of them for us all [/quote] I'd be happy to do them if you don't mind paying the postage Scoop Eude

[quote name='Musicman20' timestamp='1337510909' post='1661046'] Laid horizontal with the TTE in top. It was sat on top of a large cab underneath which wasn't plugged in (can't for the life of me remember what the cab underneath was). Tiny footprint. Very punchy! If you search musicman sterling on YouTube, one of their artists is testing a HS with two vertical 102p's. [/quote] Nice >> [url="http://youtu.be/rT_FrPUOo_A"]http://youtu.be/rT_FrPUOo_A[/url] Eude

[quote name='Scoop' timestamp='1337511552' post='1661061'] There's an ACG porn thread? Wither...?

Very nice mate

[quote name='Musicman20' timestamp='1337453081' post='1660402'] Hmm, I think in volume it would win hands down, and the low end, from the bad reports I have heard, was actually very impressive [/quote] [quote name='pietruszka' timestamp='1337458620' post='1660504'] I find the low end on my 102p excellent, it's had no problems filling a pub on its own! I love it, really clear, tight, punchy and more than enough bottom! [/quote] Thanks for the feedback guys! That little cab has always intrigued me, but I've never been sure about 10" speakers when looking for big volume, but I remember being VERY impressed with Ou7shined's MarkBass 4x10, one of the HF ones. Cheers, Eude

You really need a couple of 6 strings basses to pad it all out a bit though...

Nice to see the family pics, finally! What a collection, and your new J-Type looks incredible Good to see you've got the boy getting involved too. Eude

How was the low end on the cab mate? Does it get close to the low end from an Aggie 1x12?... Eude

[quote name='thebuckets' timestamp='1337184685' post='1656862'] I rehearsed with my HB combo yesterday. The combo sounds ok and seemed loud enough to be used live in smaller gigs although didnt seem as loud as the promethean. When used with my 212 cab it was a lot quieter than the Promethean had been. The Ibanez was blasting all in front of it at half gain and a 1/4 master and had a good cut through sound. The HB was way up close to 3/4-full on both and didn't seem to have the headroom of the former. It also didnt sound as good even though we were using the same room as when I gave the Ibby a run out. Might be I need to fiddle with the eq colour and contour but I just couldn't get it right? Anyway I've got 3 gigs this weekend so will give it a fair runout, if it doesn't shape up it can ship out! My search continues but so far head wise the ibanez has been the best... [/quote] Sorry it's not worked out mate. So was the Promethean better than the LittleMark and the MiBass?... Eude

[quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1337159600' post='1656273'] The reason I ask is that the Promethean - quite reasonably - has a protection circuit which temporarily shuts the power down if it's being pushed too hard. I've triggered it a couple of times, but only while mucking around in the house to see how hard I could drive it - it was at volumes which aren't of any practical use. [/quote] Ah right, makes sense dude. Eude

[quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1337158558' post='1656246'] Were you driving it very hard at this point? [/quote] Regardless dude, I've never had a bit of gear crap out on me ever and I've been through phases through the years of really overloading things. If a piece of kit has it's limits, then those should be factored into the gain stage, clipping protection, or whatever it takes to make sure it doesn't let you down... Eude
