    Thanks for all the help guys. Being bored out of my tiny today I tried swapping the looms but gave up. Not because its technically difficult but you have to disembowel the cab to do the swap, and on a brand new cab things stick to things, and split when you try and seperate them. Plus when you do get the drivers out the loom lurks behind a stapled pile of nylon floss which I suspect will never be the same again if I tear it from its staples. It was starting to feel and look like a bodge and not a new cab anymore and I stopped before doing too much harm. So, curiosity assuaged, I shall, as everyone suggests, use it as a 12 ohm cab until we get invited to play Wembley - which can't be long now - or it otherwise runs out of puff. Cheers, assist-folk.

    I know the generic arguments on this topic but need a steer from a grown up who has been there and done this in practice. I just bought a Barefaced Retro 210 off Lozz. It's rated at 12 ohms. I am running it with a Markbass LM2 which technically kicks out 500w @ 4ohms. With the cab in its current config apparently the head only puts out about 200 of those 500w. I don't want or need another cab, and have bought a BF 12>4ohm conversion kit to unleash all those foaming, effervescing extra watts . But in your view, for a blues band playing in small to medium size venues (band hall type size), is it necessary to fit it? Should I leave well alone at 12 ohm?

    [quote name='logicred' timestamp='1484488283' post='3215801'] Hi there, I am wondering if this is the one you bought from me (Near Dereham in Norfolk?) as mine was the same and I think it had a tiny chip too if I recall? Either way, I may buy that back of you! Could you email me a photo of it? Assume it has the softcase etc. What are the strings like? [/quote] Nope, can't be as i bought mine new. Not looking to sell, just want to swap for a five.

    I have a 'burst Sire v7 in as new condition apart from one small chip. I like it very much but I really need a five string version of the same model. If you're coming the other way with a five string in similar condition I'd be happy to look at a swap with cash to you. Can I just say I'm looking for a trade only, not a sale. i know.... doesn't make any sense but when did GAS ever make sense?

    Seymour Duncan SPB3 Quarterpounder P bass pickups. Comes with new sponge pieces and screws. Covers used and a little scruffy but they and the pups work fine. £40 including delivery.

    If you know your cabs you don't need me to tell you about this top end little chap. Rated 250w at 8 ohms but if daisychained will handle up to 500w @ 4 ohms according to Alex. And it weighs just 7.5 kg, which is crazy. As I now have a Barefaced Retro 210, my almost new One 10 is redundant and deserves to get better use. Pretty much immaculate, it was commissioned new from Alex just three months ago since when its been to less than 10 practices. No issues whatsoever and barely broken in. Comes with brand new Roqsolid cover worth £40. I'm looking for £295 collected only from the middle of East Anglia. Yes I know you can buy a brand new one with cover for around £360. But you may have to wait for it to be built and buying mine will save you £60. Plus I'm in no hurry to sell.

    still no pix. Is this the burl finish or the black one. Makes a big difference visually. and is the fingerboard really red/purple?

    Very helpful, thanks people. What a great forum this is.

    Cheers Blue. I've come across a video clip of Tal Wilkenfeld with Jeff Beck doing it finger style but the camera's only on her for the odd second so I can't make out how she's doing it. This clip at 20.50 onwards [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ndyILodYwM"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ndyILodYwM[/url]

    I'd like to be able to achieve a percussive syncopated effect on funky songs without needing to master slap. Also slap is apparently frowned upon in my conservative corner of blues fusion. So can you get the same effect with finger style? If so, how. Many thanks.

    What a great guy! Bought a cab from him then soon after realised it was a mistake. First he offered to give me my money back without being asked. When I said that wasn't fair, he then went to the ends of the earth to help me sell it on. Never once even hinted at what could have been understandable irritation with me. Very highly recommended.

    Squier P bass with cash my way? LOL, GLWTS
  23. lownote
    I don't need the pups, but I do need the loom. But I don't see it would be in your interest to split it.

    I just bought one. Astonishing. I so didn't believe it could cut the mustard I bought another top end bass cab at the same time, thinking I'd be giving the 1 10 back when the approval period was up. Little did I know what such a small box could do. It aint' going anywhere. Coupled with a 500w head I can keep up with a loud drummer, vocals and a loud lead player with the volume knob on 4. Don't tempt me. VGLWTS.
