Very nice, but too large a box for me.

Slightly off topic but does anyone know of a UK based cab Builder who would make a custom BFM cab or two? I know there's a guy listed on Bill's site but he doesn't seem to be active, on email at least.

Not yet but am considering an airhead combo like yours @JohnDaBass, it's a great idea.

Not sure about the crossover though. Would be interested to know what this one is doing and what scope there is to improve on it as I think Stevie suggested.

The one at the back does the Ejector Seat. Not sure how the others are configured but there's Machine Guns, Oil Slick and Bulletproof Screen.

phew! If they did anything useful my credit card might have been in trouble 

wow!

what do the switches do? 

Hooked these up to test them out and can't part with them, they tick too many boxes. 

Reminds me that if I spent more time playing bass and less time online reading about it I'd be in much better place!

Hi all, 

Looking to part with three of these lovely cabs as I can't see me using them.

All in great condition - they're either entirely new or as good as new. Will upload pics soon.

As others have said, these make great lightweight medium power cabs but as a trio make for a really versatile modular rig that can go very loud. My idea was to use one for rehearsals, two for most gigs and three for outdoor gigs (they're 8ohms each, so using three needs an amp that can go down to 2.7 ohms, or 2phms like the Rumble head)

Rated at 250w RMS each. They have an Eminence 12 and a switchable tweeter. Black tolex, nice chrome corners, good handles and a smart vintage look. Each one weighs about 14kg I think.

Price is £150 per cab. I can deliver them for petrol money within about an hours drive of Newcastle. Also, I am happy to play ball if you want to use a courier - but that would be the buyer's cost and responsibility.

Images coming ASAP.

Got sidetracked by the pickups ... Just noticed the fretboard!! Wow, that's a beaut, and fretless maple is surely a real rarity as noted by @PaulThePlug

Gotcha! Thanks for that.

Thanks for the info @stereoplayer

Not sure i follow what you mean about the screw on the bottom of the pickup ... how does that affect how they fit? Genuine question, I'm thinking of getting some, or at least a bridge one.

Thanks, Doug.

Very nice looking bass.

Can I ask, what did you think of the Barden J pickup? Not heard one but I can see the benefits of a hum cancelling blade ... and it looks so cool too!

Cheers,

Doug.

Thanks for the welcoming TB post @Ped.

I'd add that compared to BC, Talkbass is a more global community ... so I'd also extend the welcome beyond "our American counterparts" to all bassists in need of shelter!

First up, hoping no one (and no bass guitars !)... We're hurt in the fire.

In case anyone is as boring as me ... the co2 in fire extinguishers doesn't bind to the oxygen as was implied above. It works as a fire extinguisher because it is heavier than the oxygen, so it pushes the oxygen up and away from the fuel as it descends onto the fuel. It also blows the oxygen away by sheer force of the propulsion. That distance between fuel and oxygen starves the fire.  It is basically a gaseous blanket.

The other bands are just music for people who aren't interested in music. The peak of mediocrity.

May sound like that now but the Killers track (which is way out ahead in this list) was energetic, edgy and anthemic when it came out, for a certain demographic. Not muso stuff, but neither were [insert your iconic band of choice].

Just bought a preamp from @Brian45: fair price, great comms and very well packaged. Thanks

Selling this lovely Ashdown.  It's been a tricky decision to part with this one but I am not using this (barely ever have) and can't see it happening now, so it might as well go to a new home.

This combo is from the UK custom shop. Nice amp if you like Ashdown ABM features but not the weight.

Features a SICA neo driver and an Eminence APT80 for the horn. I lined it with wadding which made a subtle improvement and also added a proper crossover for the tweeter. It honestly sounds really nice, it is a very good tweeter - the same that Barefaced use on the One10T.

Price is now £350  plus delivery

Sold pending payment. That was quick!

Bought this on basschat last year. Not using it.

Works well, no issues. All lights and knobs are working. Powered it up and gave a test just now and all is good.  I just don't need it.

I found it to be very clean, uncoloured compressor. There is a good Ovnifx review for anyone interested in such geekery.

£70 including UK postage.

Withdrawn - came to my senses and going to keep them. Please lock / delete.

Brilliant thanks @paul_5. Makes perfect sense, much appreciated mate.

No reply from Ashdown...

I assume it would be an easy enough mod for a local amp tech ?? Ideally add a dial or a switch to make it adjustable, or even just an on off switch.

Anyone??
