  1. MB200 and Barefaced midget t, the lightest "usable" rig that I could find that has enough power in hand in case the gig turns out to a bit louder than you thought.
  2. Be careful with Lemon Oil, it contains Limonene which is a solvent for things like superglue. Fingerboard line markings may be glued in with superglue and could be loosened with Limonene. I know Lemon Oil has been used for many years, but just a word of caution.
  3. Typical, i was looking for one of these for ages and non to be seen on here till I buy a new one! Brilliant little amp, worth every penny. Good luck with the sale!
  4. I always thought my iamp 800 sounded sterile and lacked "guts" compared to my iamp350
  5. If it's the onstage sound that's the problem, might be worth looking at this http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Tecamp_Pleasureboard.html I haven't tried it, but it would be interesting.
  6. For sale is my Aguilar tone hammer preamp/DI. This is hardly used and was carried in my gig bag as a backup. It has the original box and instructions. Condition is good, there are a couple of small marks, but you have to look close to see them. It comes with an Aguilar power supply with multiplug adaptors.[attachment=192248:IMAG0350.jpg][attachment=192249:IMAG0351.jpg][attachment=192250:IMAG0352.jpg] £130 delivered in the UK.
  7. https://youtu.be/BQD99KtNxlM these are also coming out, looks interesting.
  8. I've only used the BB2, sticking a wedge under the front of the cab gets the sound to you ears when you're standing right next to it.
  9. That's a relief!
  10. Try a GK MB800 before you do anything with the BIG ONE. At least you can rule it out.
  11. There's a few second hand at bass direct just now as well.
  12. http://www.ampwedge.com/ I looked at this, but decided to try using some "plastic" packing foam. It worked well with a wedge under the front of my BB2....so well i didn't see the point in buying the Ampwedge......and it's lighter and fits in my gig bag. Getting the front end of the cab wedged up does make a difference with smaller cabs.
  13. [quote name='Conan' timestamp='1427121733' post='2725975'] I work full-time (usually more than "full-time" in fact) and have a family - so, much as I would like to, I just can't put the time in to try stuff out [/quote] Snap! and i like really clean bass, no distortion. Once you get to a certain level of gear, it's not always available locally, so most of my purchases have been blind. some work, some don't. I'd like to try Glock.
  14. [quote name='Conan' timestamp='1427120786' post='2725946'] It's plenty loud enough as it is! My band is not particularly noisy, and my sound is not particularly bass-heavy. As a result, I'm not sure I need the extra power... [/quote] Yes, the reason i was saying this is from my experience with a TECAMP PUMA 1000. I could run 350 watts from one amp at 8 ohms or bridge it to 1000 watts at 8 ohms. At the same perceived output volume it felt so much nicer with the extra headroom. Look forward to your F1 thoughts
  15. I'll watch with interest The F1 is more along the tonal lines of the GK, Genz and Tecamp,I believe. Still think you should put 500 watts at 8 ohms into your Big One, given my experience with BBt and BB2.
  16. Reading all your comments here, have you tried and discounted the MB800?
  17. The gen2 midget T has slightly pronounced mids, but the Big baby t and the Big baby 2 don't......from my experience.
  18. You might miss the tweeter. Big baby2 might be a better option. I sold my Mk 2 Compact 1x15 because of lack of top end definition. (for my taste). Big baby 2 is the best cab I've owned and i would say probably as loud as your 2x 2x 10's. I'm putting 500+ watts into mine with a GK MB800. My setup is as loud as my EPI UL2 4x10 was before you could feel the EPI drivers reaching excursion limit.
  19. I had one of these at the time.....great amp, used to link the channels. Nostalgia
  20. One BF Big Baby 2 will cover everything up till you need your 8x10.....and maybe you'll rethink the 810 It's also 8 ohms.
  21. I always keep my Barefaced Midget on the floor or somewhere you get boundary reinforcement. Experience of lifting up higher results in quite a lot of low end loss.
