  1. this and/or the di out the front of the hartke - they 'assume' it is clean/pre but are blissfully unaware of the pre/post button on the back
  2. Nick Lowe having a bad hair day?
  3. preloved sandberg electra for about 300-350 ish best value out there imho ymmv mcton etc
  4. this and the "aspirational lifestyle marketing BS "
  5. get a dog and a nice motorhome
  6. i think linking it to trumpy pumpy or any politician for that matter, and inferring that gibson's decline could be terminal because of politics is a bit disingenuous - gibson's ceo and his board chums managed that all by themselves with their executive "lifestyle choice" decisions without any need for political scapegoating
  7. you paid for the whole pineapple but i bet you didnt eat the spikey bit on the outside 😆
  8. doesnt work very often ( imho ymmv mcton etc etc) this example works extreemingly well great player great tune
  9. I don’t think theloose screws made it inside the cab is sealed not ported and it all sounds clean now
  10. didnt have to disassmble the cab in the end just remove the back plate they were already missing so i guess theyve vibrated themselves completely free whilst being hammered by the LH500 at full whack lol
  11. Decided to take the original screws out as the were only 6mm long and replace them with longer to give a bit more grip and include a flat washer and a spring washer rattling has ceased
  12. variable depending on genre/style
  13. found it - took the back panel off - there are six self tapping wood screws which fasten the back plate to the cab and then four set screws which hold the brass legs supporting the circuit board to the back plate - two off the screws holding the brass legs down had just vibrated themselves completely free ive noticed that there is some sort of red wax on the base of the legs and plate - does this serve any mechanical purpose or is it purely an anti tamper thing? thanks
  14. i actually noticed the rattle when i was moving them and put them down on a concrete surface and heard the rattle - sounds a bit like the grill but sounds more like it is sort of internal if you catch my drift
  15. Have had a pair of hydrive 112's now for a couple of years and up until recently they were being driven by an LH500 and doing a great job was quite impressed with their overall output compared to the hydrive 410 i moved from (for logistic/health reasons rather than audio considerations!) and also changed the LH500 for the lightweight TX600... nice tone but nowhere near the balls and power of the LH500 have just noticed that both of the two cabs seem to have a rattle that sounds like it is coming from the structure/chassis somewhere inside the cab - is doing it very slightly on one cab but the other is quite pronounced - i did notice at last gig i thought i could hear some distortion but realise now what i could hear was actually the rattling of whatever has vibrated itself loose anybody else had any similar experience with hydrive cab particularly the 112 and what was the remedy thanks before i go stripping these two apart ta muchly in advance
  16. thats enough to inspire me to change my name to rickenbacker and play exclusively fender
  17. sell them just keep one hope this helps
  18. indeed this - not knocking them but its not really yes is it - i was struggling with seeing them in their buggles phase but was an enjoyable gig nonetheless but still not a patch on the classic line up imho/ymmv/mcton/etc/etc
  19. you mean like sadowsky and fodera ?
