OK  - I think Im gonna have to buy this - can you pm me the details please  and I'll come down and get it next week - cheers mike

Oh well tried to edit something - meant to say Monacos not Monzas   have got a Monaco 

Ah.  now that is very interesting   2 Monacos   well I use a shuttle and a Monza  but I keep putting my Vanderkley under them too , with 

the horn turned down .

So do you have a switch for the bottom horn or does it sound fine with both horns , no phasing probs .

Im in a reggae band so have to use a lot of bass boost - have been absolutely toying with the idea of getting another one 

but not sure I want the height with the horn so near my ears - decisions decisions .

I have come from using 2 vanderkleys - to 1 Vanderkley and a Monza , which sounds superior - but the height is creeping up

Yes absolutely  - love mine, clear as a bell - I sometimes put a Vanderkley 1x12 underneath it for bigger gigs cos I push the bass frequencies 

quite a bit for reggae - but it is the best cab I have heard - totally recommended  

Shame about the thread - hope the sacrifices in accuracy will still be workable in this precision winding exercise 

and that the pickups will indeed be repeatable - waiting on baited breath 

Finding this both riveting and hilarious by turns - can't wait for the next episode 

This is great - but I don't think I would want  any Random stuff - cos if on the 29th go you 

wind the pickup that is utterly magnificent  - hot - mellow - rounded - just perfect , 

well how do you duplicate it .  I reckon with this much control you can experiment where 

you want the "scatter" winds - 3 layers then a scatter then 4 layers and 2 scatters .......

Might take a long time , but sooner or later you will arrive at a formula which you know 

will sound Brill - and make the pyramids rotate and Machu Pichu  vibrate 

Thanks to sandy-r for putting those links in - very interesting - I had actually taken 3 amps down 

to last years bash cos I thought they were going to be doing it again - however that didn't happen 

hope thy do it at this years bash 

Heft - well it seems to be analog  don't know if its something to do with chopping the wave up

then re-assembling it in the class D lightweight stuff - I use a Genz Benz shuttle 9.2 - but I also 

use an old Markbass Slim Head - the last one they made before going lightweight class D 

it just has that HEFT - got a couple of old valve heads - even more HEFT - so dunno - I know it when its there 

Hmmm  - check out the Clarke Hutchinson Band - crazy songs - great playing - pretty sure it was Stephen Amazing on bass - 

memory fails a bit , would it be Andy Clarke on keys , same as Upp  - I saw Upp supporting Beck Bogart and Appeche in Top Rank Cardiff 

god knows what year - that was when I realised these guys were part or wholly the Clarke Hutchinson Band of the LP I had - amazing

If its anything like their guitars it will be excellent 

I should say its one Stevies cabs from this forum LFSYS being his operation - and he certainly knows what he is doing 

Hi  Stub - yes really pleased with the cab - its actually LFSYS (low frequency systems)  

Have been trying a few gigs on its own and a few with an extra cab under it because I

use so much bass boost for reggae - have used it on its own for small gigs - but feel more 

comfortable with the extra cab for larger halls - plus our guitarist has just taken delivery of

his new FRFR 200 watt rig - that's RMS !!   so I need to keep the low end covered - but the 

beautiful clear clear sound of this cab ( Monaco ) is superb 

Ah  - Mrs Screamer lol - I'll tell her you said that  - that looks like her 18 as far as I can make out 

and that's me 10  I believe , behind Stevie -  must say an excellent day - THE FOOD ------ now 

I understand why everyone was going on about  it - well this was my first time - well done all the 

organisers - will try and get down for next year too 

OK - so I'm definitely coming avec la lady - who is bringing a book doesn't want to be left behind lol-

bringing 3 amp heads - a power cable - don't really have any gear for the raffle - so it will have to be a bottle -

see you all tomorrow - cheers 

Are you by any chance going to the South West Bass Bash in Taunton on the 8th 

and possibly taking this Corvette - just asking for a friend of course

Very interesting read - I use a Genz Benz shuttle 9.2  mostly now and just found out 

on another thread here that it has a filter set to 30 hz  

this explains a lot , usually I like the low shape switched in 

but it never gets boomy - one thing I did find is that I like 

a valve that is very balanced on either side - the ones they 

usually sell for the phase inverter - it seems to make Fi a bit Hi er 

Gonna try n get down for this - never been to a bash before - can bring some  amp heads 

Markbass Slim Head - the old analogue one just before class D came out 

Genz-Benz shuttle 9.2 

Hartke LX8500 - kinda like a shuttle , bought 2nd hand as a backup 

Im very interested in seeing the Basschat diy cabs 

also in getting the frequency response measured on these amps  

Will pay the door - unless you still need it in advance 

I remember reading that there were phasing issues to do with the positioning of the pickups - but then Peter Greens Lester had the same issues eh 

Great - so we are here - just tell us what you need to keep this site wonderful - cheers

Absolutely - this is great site -  so  - we all want to help - I dunno, put a big banner at the top asking all members to read a new thread

in which you tell us exactly what you need - cheers

Well I have no idea what this site costs to run - but I believe the members here would like to keep the site running

I have read that some would leave altogether - this would be a great shame - so are enough people interested enough

in keeping it free from trackers and ads  - I don't know how many supporting members there are now - I don't know if 

there is a big shortfall, a small shortfall , or no shortfall - I also think administrators et al deserve some payment - 

a tennis club would cost more or any other club - this one is for Bassists - I have already bought a couple of bits of gear 

the people I bought them off were top notch - well they're bassists aren't they  - save this the way it is  - a great bass site 

Absolutely it is a problem - I just asked on another related thread if another way is possible 

I asked how many members would it take to be contributing members and at what price 

I for one would be happy to pay a bit more than £20 a year to be free of all this nonsense  

I think it is cheap for that - surely there are enough members who are like minded - I should say that

I have only recently started visiting this Basschat  and have not yet become a contributor - but 

I believe this is one of the best, if not the best site for bassists - and its because of the members I have found here 

jeez lets save it 

Im not on Facebook either for the same reasons

I quit my subscription to Guitar n bass magazine when they went digital only and wanted to unleash 

hundreds of trackers on me - Im not on Facebook for the same reasons - although I sure would like 

to be cos of Headfirst amplification  - Aussie valve amp specialists - but they don't have a forum 

they have a Facebook users group or whatever you call it - but a great utube channel
