[quote name='Ghost_Bass' timestamp='1357834724' post='1929277'] Close, i had a UL212 - series 2 and briefly also had a UL210 - series 1 on loan. I'll do my best to explain the diferences. [/quote] that'd be fab, ta matey!

[quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1357386687' post='1921882'] If you want a more focused low end you could swap out the valves or, better still, just change the amp. The GB STL 9.2 would be a good high powered alternative. I'd also consider a Markbass LM3 and Aguilar TH500. I'd keep the cab though. [/quote] Lots of folks seem to use the s12-t with a markbass, try borrowing one to try with your cab and see how you get on?

Have any of you guys gone from 2 Epi UL112-2 cabs to an S12-T? If so tell me more as am wavering!

pm'd

I have a bassdoc bwb one for my geddy that I've never put on, hence it's going spare if youre interested?

Well, I really enjoyed your last one so I'll give this one a listen too...ordered!

[quote name='Phil-osopher10' timestamp='1357735872' post='1927419'] Aye, normally I would go for secondhand but there seems to be very little of anything I want at the minute, though patience is a virtue and all that! Does anyone have a Genz benz focus 112? [/quote] It's always the way, when you don't want summat it's all over the place but as soon as you want one they dry up quicksmart! Hope you find one matey!

there are probably loads of s/h cabs at that price point on here just now, have a quick shufty through the for sale listings and see what you can find, you'll get summat better for your money!

Can you do a link to the seller please cos I need one for my highway one p bass...?

I'll hoist one to that!

[quote name='ShergoldSnickers' timestamp='1357317479' post='1920976'] Based in Hull Andy. About an hour and a half max to Sheffield. This needs some serious thought. Done properly we'd record everything close miked, 6 feet away and 20 feet away at head height, using a pre-recorded bass track. That would give people an idea of the sound they could expect from micing up, and then standing 6 and 20 feet away - on stage and in the audience type of test. [/quote] That'd be pretty handy though wouldn't it! If we're doing that it'd be well handy to do the same with a pair of Epi, Vanderkley, Genz, Aguilar cabs too It still wouldn't get over wanting to have a prattle with my amps through 'em too to get some kind of clue how [i]I'd [/i]sound...but it'd be an excellent way to get a feel for each brand... What amp to use through them or would a bridged pa amp be the most clinical way of just comparing cabs? although that wouldn't give you effect of [i]your [/i]combination would it...

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1357316918' post='1920951'] Have you tried Gravatar as suggested in my post above? [/quote] yep...in the intervening 7 minutes between my 2 posts when I was signing up for gravatar, faffing linking pictures and then updating misself on here

gravatar works though

I also can't change my avatar, I can link to pics in threads as I use flickr but even the url link for avatar changes isn't working, it also screwed up my old avatar so I'm avatar-less just now...not a major problem but I did rather like my old one

[quote name='ShergoldSnickers' timestamp='1357315836' post='1920918'] Wiling to supply a Barefaced S12T for this... I would imagine that each will be highly articulate, with the EAD possibly just sneaking it in the mid band. [/quote] That's kind of what I thought too, but the pudding's proof is in the hearing as the well known saying goes Very kind of you to offer your S12-T for this experiment! You're in Leeds yes? I'm in Sheffield; EAD is in Chorley...unless someone else has a Foundation 212 they'd bring along maybe? I wonder if there's a venue at some convenient location where we could (via the medium of a few different amps and basses) try them both to put this question to bed once and for all! Some kind of bash type thing, maybe in Yorkshire If someone's there who can write we could do a proper piece on it for the edification of BC in general? I can bring my ACG Recurve 6, pair of Epi UL112-2, Genz Shuttle 9 and MarkBass LMII to add into the comparison mix...

Spoombung-gate may have been a little off topic but...meh, it was an EAD in use with some quality music to demonstrate it so back on topic now yes? I'd really like to try a foundation 212 back to back with a barefaced S12-T in a cage match! The barefaced lists a slightly wider frequency range and is slightly lighter but the EAD looks awesome and I know they sound good cos I had a brief go with one in Moffat when at ACG towers...

[quote name='largo' timestamp='1357309167' post='1920725'] Does that tell me when the EAD 1x12" cabs will be available. [/quote] I reckon the best place to find that out would be to email EAD direct and see what they've got planned...(and then let us know)

[quote name='MiltyG565' timestamp='1357241799' post='1919780'] A bass is a classic when people start saying things like "Sounds a bit like a *enter classic bass here*". They also have to be fairly common, otherwise, they aren't that classic. I'm sure everyone could point to a bass that sounds/looks fantastic, and they wished they owned, but because they price is many many thousands of hard earned pounds, and there are only 100 being made, it would be difficult for it to become a classic. Classics tend to be the ones that change everything. The P has it's own unique tone, and changed bass indefinitely. It made bass easy, transportable, loud and relatively cheap. That's isn't the formula for a classic, but again, you can point to a stingray and say it's a classic, because of it's tone. [/quote] Basically, this! There will now likely ensue 3+ pages of folks bantering about minor details of the above statement which already gets close enough for me to agree with.

pics a big help! [quote name='gjones' timestamp='1357225422' post='1919364'] Have you inserted the jackplug into a speaker output yet? It connects the amp to the speaker. It will be very quiet (ie silent) until you do. [/quote] this! that connection is so you can plug in the internal speaker and then either add an 8ohm cab or disconnect the internal speaker and use 2 external 8 ohm cabs!
