not the same cab but ive gone from a ported orange 410 to my mag 810, like chris said noticeable mid bump with the 810 so you will need to adjust your eq to suit. local practice space has the 410s they are nice cabs i never used the horn as i dnt like them tbh, is their a sealed 410 out there? ive only ever seen ported. andy

well just back from practice, very impressed, nice loud and punchy! was trying out a few new pedals in my chain, and sounded lovely, well worth the money spent on it. totally forgot to take some pics but will be in the studio on tues so will probs post a few photos and one of the tracks. andy

boss tu-3 or 2 bomb proof pedals! very accurate and bright led display, however the guitarist in my band just got a mooer tuner which is a polytune copy but is fast and very accurate as well. andy

its got undo redo, dnt think you can go back to the first loop tho, got mine today plan on having a play next week as im busy all weekend. andy

will post a link to some of our recordings next week with the mesa being a big sound in them andy

[quote name='E sharp' timestamp='1391724127' post='2360724'] I bought loads of plugs and cables , made then all up , just as it showed on the net , spent ages doing it , and nothing worked . Spent ages of time , when really I dont have much . I reckon I sunk well over 100 pounds on cables I couldn't get to work . One of my mates had the same thing - pedalboard dead , which cable ? I now have limited time , what with work , and I cant afford to mess about with stuff that may or may not work . Ive switched too Hosa cables , and i couldn't be happier . [/quote] i think for this reason id always check the cables with a multimeter. also is it just me or are the diago plugs basically george l's? andy

[quote name='Johnnyc' timestamp='1392220265' post='2366107'] I think I'll keep my '69er at 27Kg thanks [/quote] was interested in a barefaced but monies and the waiting time prevented me pulling the trigger, first practice tomoz then some recording the following monday eve andy

just grabbed one of the ditto x2 should be with me tomorrow hopefully, it was cheaper than the boss rc-3 and worth the little extra over the ditto i felt due to being able to store and export loops aswell as import mp3's to play over. will make jamming at home much more fun andy

my guess is this, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wahFVhkTb-k beast of a pedal, also love that band awesome! andy

[quote name='CamdenRob' timestamp='1392104582' post='2364602'] Not for me 810s.... The Aguilar one apperantly weighs 184lb thats over 13 stone.... [/quote] the mags manageable at 67kg andy

can also add my views in, have to wait till thursday to try the 810 out in anger with the guys but never sounded muddy to my ears in the shop, there was a darker more bass heavy sound which i liked. why is it you want to change to the abm? they go very cheap secondhand on ebay maybe grab one and do a a/b? andy

just as a bit of advice would you guys put a boost pedal in the loop? so it avoids the pre amp? unless you wanted to add a bit more gain to add more grit andy

[quote name='Truckstop' timestamp='1391951377' post='2362884'] You should get yourself an Ashdown James Lomenzo Hyperdrive. It's got a frequency scroller and you can choose where in the mix you want the distortion to sit while still retaining the lows. Other OD's have the same tool but the Lomezo is probably the most inexpensive option (SH). The bands I've seen/heard with the best overdriven bass sounds tend to embrace the fact that they're going to lose bottom end and really pile on the grit and work with the guitars and keys to create a great BAND sound. Personally, 'a touch of grit' does nothing. You may as well just use a heavy playing style. For 'grit' to work, you need a cranked valve amp. Using pedals, you gotta spade the drive on and work to find a mix with the rest of the band that works. In my opinion. Truckstop [/quote] agree with this you do seem to need more than what you think, what is it you dnt like about the blackstar?

first gig with it will be on the 8th of march, but got recording and a practice before that so ill report back with how it fairs. andy

so i bit the bullet and got a mag 810t, but in the newer tolex finish, didnt fancy a carpet covered one, even tho they were much cheaper. played it for about 15mins in the shop with a ad200b very loud and very fat! nice and bass heavy so will sound very nice, with my terror and board of effects. andy

[quote name='rOB' timestamp='1391893983' post='2362463'] Now that looks very interesting. Does the frequency splitter work well for bass? [/quote] yeh works very well, you can dial in some nice high gain fizz or have a fat dirty bottom end with not alot of high distortion and get a nice stoner rock sound, was really surprised by the range of the tone control tho, makes it super usable. andy

got one of these today! awesome little dirt box, independent high and low gain controls so you can have the lows distort more than he highs etc, a nice tone control with a massive sweep, and a pretty hefty level boost if you want it about 12 o clock is unison. [url="http://lateralsound.com/pedals/root/"]http://lateralsound.com/pedals/root/[/url] so much dirt is on my board now! but this was worth it and it made by a guy in the uk. also Jon from lateral is sending me a few more of his pedals on loan to try out with my bass rig and make a few videos with. andy

ah just read through and saw it doesnt have a clean through! dam!

on the thread i started it seems peeps are wondering why its so heavy, however they sound pretty brutal but im gonna stick with the tb1000 for a little bit andy

sorry im still not buying! rhcp are big enough to not have to do sh*t they dnt want to! like miming! end of! andy

[quote name='topheteatwo' timestamp='1391525725' post='2358134'] Is the Nintendo jobby a COG pedal? If so, which one? [/quote] yeh think its a boss ls-2 clone but better andy

[quote name='Kev' timestamp='1391468644' post='2357616'] I would imagine it is more than likely that [i]all[/i] instruments involved in that show were pre-recorded and Flea was poking fun at this by unplugging his transmitter alltogether. The bassist with Bruno Mars had a wireless transmitted plugged in and he clearly wasn't creating the bass heard. Same with Josh. Flea on more than one occasion has preached about bands playing live before and I imagine he was pissed at having to fake it, as it were. [/quote] however he was still miming, to make a point that hes angry surely doing that just made him look stupid, i dnt like oasis but this was a good way of hating miming notice that theres something odd about liam. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUTL2jSRIgE andy

grabbing one of these. wondering if anyone else has one in there rig, my rig has a rack eq doing the job of a thumpinator cutting out anything below 25hz, i did think this might cut away the use of this pedal but when using a pitch shifter you can def still feel those lows 2 octaves down, so looking forward to getting it. might grab a di box aswell later so if we do a gig with a big pa i can run the blue box straight into it. andy

my old rig of a aguilar db750 and a 610hlf was my fav rig for ages, love my terror and 410obc but im hoping the new rig of a orange thunderverb 200 and an 810 cab will be my new fav! andy
