  1. Super smooth transaction with Martin (retroroach) GK now gone to a good home.
  2. My GK212 was sold this afternoon on the classifieds.
  3. For sale a new GK 212mbe 4ohm. I have had this cab for about 2 months - not played. I have taken it out the packaging just to check it over. It will come in the original packaging. I bought 2 of these cabs but realise I only need one due to its awesome sound and volume. I would prefer the buyer to collect - I am located near Bristol. I would be happy for the buyer to arrange courier but I am not going to do this as I have experienced problems before. Paddy.
  4. Thanks guys- just got back from a gig in Bristol and my DB sounded so much better and I was even able to keep my volume down and cut through the mix with a good thump. My band all commented how good my sound was and even asked me to turn down a little - that's a first. Respect.
  5. I have a gk212mbe 4ohm - brand new never been played, only taken out of its box to be checked over. Its only a couple of months old and complete with original packaging. Willing to sell for £180 - so if you wanted to sort a courier I am sure this could be done for <£20 or come and pick up from Bristol. Bingo - great cab for <£200 budget! Hope this doesn't break and forum rules. Paddy.
  6. Fletcher-Munson? Now that makes sense then - at home and I have my amp fairly loud my sound can sound pretty good. As soon as I ramp the volume and play with the band my sound goes all to sh*t! Thanks for all the top advice - will sort it in practice tonight and gig tomorrow.
  7. OK - messed about with my sound this morning (poor neighbours). Definitely sounds better but difficult to know how good this will sound at a gig but I have a good place to start. Thanks for the advice - I think I assumed that ramping the bass up would help! Paddy.
  8. Thanks for the advice will give it a go before gigging at w'end. When setting the platinum pro flat/midday is this the sliders at the bottom or half way?
  9. Hi all - now I really dont confess to be anything but a novice when it comes to sound and setting up and really need some help. My issue is bottom end sound is a bit undefined and not punchy enough. D and G sound good but overall I would like more thump and definition. I am playing Strunal 50/4 with Innovation golden slaps - k&k bassmax - fishman pro plat - ashdown giant effects return - gk 212mbe. The band plays a mix of country, bluegrass style. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
  10. [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]For sale my GK MB150e - £330 delivered in UK and £310 pick up (I live between Bath and Bristol). Paypal or cash on collection.[/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]Cosmetically she is not in perfect condition; the GK logo to the front is wearing thin and there is a few scratches to the back made during transport (please see pictures). There is absolutely nothing wrong with the sound of this little combo and she suprises most that hear her. She is extremely light and has a bullet proof construction.[/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]A longtime favorite for some of the biggest session artists in the industry, GK's MicroBass remains the standard for high quality compact bass amplification. With its sturdy welded aluminum chassis, the MicroBass Series is equally at home on the road or in the studio. Used alone or with the 112MBX extension cabinet, this little powerhouse delivers a surprisingly large and articulate sound[/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5][u][b]SUPPLIED ACCESSORIES:[/b][/u][/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]o UK IEC Lead[/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]o Owners Manual[/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5][b][u]FEATURES:[/u][/b][/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]o Active 4 Band EQ[/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]o Adjustable Contour, High Boost and Low Cut[/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]o Stereo Chorus (Footswitchable)[/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]o Boost Valve Effect[/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]o Send, Return, Line Out + Headphone Out[/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5][b][u]HEAD SPECIFICATION:[/u][/b] [/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]o 100 Watts Main (150 Watts with 112 MBX)[/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]o Dual XLR Direct Out with Ground Lift + Pre/Post Switch[/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]o 1/4" Outputs wuth Speaker On/Off Switch[/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5][b][u]SPEAKER SPECIFICATION:[/u][/b][/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]o 8 ohms Impedance[/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]o 100 Watts (RMS)[/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]o 1/4" Connectors[/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]o Sealed Enclosure[/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]o Black Metal Chassis[/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5][b][u]GENERAL INFO:[/u][/b][/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]o 13.5" x 16" x 8.5"" (WxHxD)[/size][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4][size=5]o 26 lbs / 11.8 Kg's[/size][/size][/font]
  11. Good - nearly new, 25mm padding, wheels, backstraps, heaps of pockets. Bad - seam to front has come apart a few inches. Pickup only - I live between Bath and Bristol but also spend some time in Chepstow. This is free and cost £160, I really dont want it going to a landfill. Having trouble uploading picture - if you are interested pm me with a mobile number and I will send a picture of the seam. The only thing I do ask if it is worth someones trouble is the bag is not sold on! Paddy.
  12. Hardly used, as new condition and surplus to requirements. Pick up only unless a courier is arranged at your cost. I live between Bath and Bristol. Complete with power lead and owner manual. Paddy.
  13. I've always been more than happy not hearing myself - dont want to know how crap my intonation is. Hit the root note if you loose things dont stop and dont grimace if you mess up - just pretend it is all going to plan! All works for me.
  14. I have just bought my second tom and will bag - the first one the zip bust after 3+ years. Got a 40% discount on the second and the newer zips are much more robust! So far so good! Good prompt response fron their customer services.

  17. Phil - no animals in our band - weve go a newgrass type of thing going.
  18. Thanks to everyone for the advice - had a gig last sat and much happier with the sound! Went through gk and pa - still gotta way to go but all in the band much happier. We all played like complete muppets mind you - hey it's only rock n roll! Paddy
  19. If I take two feeds out of the pre amp which two sockets out of the three do I use - xlr, send/tuner and output? Looking forward to giving all this a go!
