  1. Hi guys,

    Just wanted to let you all know what a star mikeh is to deal with. I've just sold him an Aguilar AG500 amp. Friendly comms and quicker than quick payment. Great guy who i'd deal with again without hesitation.

    Cheers

    Ian

  2. [quote name='whynot' post='135028' date='Feb 6 2008, 02:25 PM']The spec page from Tech is slightly misleading.
    They sold the cab in either 4 or 8 ohm versions.
    This is the 8 ohm version.[/quote]

    ...what he said...

    Having an 8 ohm cab means you can always add another 8 ohm cab, as most amps are 4 ohm capable. If it was 4 ohms the vast majority of amps couldn't handle adding another cab.

  3. [quote name='Finbar' post='134725' date='Feb 5 2008, 11:29 PM']That's what I thought :) Just to check though, it runs at 4 ohms as well as 8 ohms, right?[/quote]

    No, it's an 8 ohm cab. But as I said it's that loud I'd doubt anyone would need to add another cab, unless you're playing stadium sized venues!

  4. [quote name='Finbar' post='134456' date='Feb 5 2008, 03:52 PM']I've been *possibly* looking for one of those 412 Tech cabs for a while! I would be very interested if you decide to sell in April, and I live in Sheffield myself :)[/quote]

    Keep in touch. If you're still interested nearer the time then you're in an ideal location!

  5. [quote name='eude' post='134246' date='Feb 5 2008, 12:31 PM']You could just go with a grill cloth maybe?
    Perhaps a nice sliver one for a cool vintage vibe...
    Would afford at least a little protection, keep dust out and probably wouldn't add much weight-wise at all...

    Just my 2p :)

    Exactly what I'd suggest...

  6. Hi Guys,

    Just an initial feeler at this stage. This'll probably be available mid or late April. Being based in Northern Ireland, equipment like this isn't widely available or recognised so i'm advertising here with a view to possibly delivering to your door (depending on your location) or meeting half-way as part of a road trip to pick up my new Shuker in Sheffield when it's finished (hence the mid to end of April availability!).

    Down to the nitty gritty!

    Tech Soundsystems ND412S
    4x12" + Tweeter
    1200Watts RMS @ 8 ohms
    30" x 27" x 17"
    26kg/57lbs

    Great cab. VERY loud (103dB sensitivity according to the website - loudest cab I've heard) and VERY light for its size. A pretty easy one person lift. Quite a rare beast this one. It's 8 ohms but don't let it put you off - with the AGGIE it's almost capable of punching down walls! £600

    Cab is AS NEW. Never gigged, only been out of the house twice to band practice. This is a kickass cab, but it's just too much for my current needs.

  7. Hi Guys,

    I've just joined a new covers band and I'm not great at transposing songs in my head to suit singers with a less than full range :) so would prefer to learn songs by playing along. Does anyone know of a free program that could change the key of recorded music for me to jam along to? I know I could get midi tracks and change the key but would prefer recorded music - a bit more real-world...

    Cheers

  8. I have an ashdown ABM combo and, although the amp definately has enough power to cover most gigs, the internal speaker is utter pants. 1 10" speaker is never really going to set the world vibrating though!

    The way I think of it is that it's always better having enough power and not needing it than needing it and not having enough.

    If it's any help there was a 500 watt ABM 1x15 combo for sale in the classifieds for £250... If I lived on the mainland I'd have it in a flash!

    What a rig. I don;t want the head - got two of them, but that 4 x 12 would make the ultimate 'concert rig'

    Anyone interested in buying a Tech Mini 15 so I can justify the extra expense?[/quote]

    If you really want a tech 4x12 I might have an 8ohm one for sale soon (although undecided yet). I've to make a trip to see Jon Shuker about the end of March and could deliver it in the Midlands (ferrying it from Northern Ireland)... we could maybe work out a deal for your tech 15. Is it 4 or 8 ohms? PM me if you're interested...

  10. Nonsense. If you're still considering a custom built neck with a different scale length then you don't have to move your bridge at all - it doesn't matter where you're bridge is, it just matters where the frets and nut are in relation to it. As long as whoever is building the neck makes all measurements in relation to the current bridge position then everything will be fine.
