  1. Just called Alex on the phone and he had read my email! He suggested that I took the panel off the back (if I wanted to, otherwise to send it back to them) and explained at length and in some detail how the horn was wired and to check the two (military grade) bayonet fixings on the terminals, as he couldn't imagine what else it could be. I was pleasantly reassured at the time he took and his concern. He obviously has great pride in his creations! I did this. They hadn't come off, but I pushed them on tighter anyway. Hoorah! This seems to have solved the problem. Probably moved in transit. The horn now works. It sounds fantastic! Plenty of high frequencies, rich bass. I shall be gigging it twice this weekend and will make my final decision whether to keep it. If it carries on sounding this good, it's almost a cert that I will! Thanks for the help chaps!
  2. Thanks for your replies! The streamliner was used on both the BB2 and my Epifani UL2 112. I find the streamliner to be pretty good at a clean hifi like sound if the valve section is kept in check. I will send my BB2 back to Barefaced and see what they say. If the horn wasn't working, I may just ask for a repair. If the horn is working, then they can keep it. it's not for me! Barefaced have (typically) not yet replied to my email. Other companies are busy, and yet manage to keep-up with their customers!
  3. I got my BB2 a couple of weeks ago and have gigged it a few times now, powered by my GB Streamliner. Frankly I'm very disappointed with it! Yes it has great lows, but there are no high frequencies or punch, especially when compared to my Epifani UL2 112. Maybe my one is defective, as turning the "horn control" on the back of the cab makes absolutely no difference to the sound at all. I even got my band mates to check it out and they agree! It that the same for all you other owners, or have I just got a duff one? I assume the latter! It has rather put me off and as it's within it's one month trial I may just ask for a refund. It's not cheap cabinet and Barefaced's lack of communication and response to emails right from the beginning of the ordering process has also rather put me off! Am I being petulant? Should I stick with it and get it repaired.? Advice requested and welcomed!
  4. Oh....forgot to mention, it's an American Fender and they seem to go on here for £450. I'd be ok with a straight swap though, if you're interested? Toby
  5. Hi. I have a Fender Highway One Jazz Bass with upgraded DiMarzio pickups, stripped and refinished with Wudtone wax finish. Looks like a slightly sunburst conker! Are you interested in a trade? Sorry, would have pm'd you, but using an ipad.....so can't! Toby

  7. Hi. More of a p neck. Not interested in your lovely bass. I already have 2 p-basses. Thanks for asking though.
  8. For sale my beautiful G&L L2000 Tribute, Sunburst over swamp ash. Maple fingerboard. These basses are a fantastic buy and have a huge range of useable sounds and tones. It's been gigged a few times, but has very little fret wear and has very light superficial buckle-rash on the back and a deeper scratch on the top edge (nothing thata dab of black nail-polish wouldn't fix). No dings. Good condition overall.
