[quote name='BassBus' timestamp='1415991115' post='2605952'] If your item is less than £50 in value then as far as I remember posting the sale is free. Mods will confirm this. I'm sure the details are in a sticky at the top of the for sale pages. [/quote] Correct, though you will get beaten by a masked moderator if you under value your goods for sale.

[quote name='HowieBass' timestamp='1415990918' post='2605949'] I'm sure a Moderator will be along soon to confirm the details behind this but I think you can post as many adverts as you like for 12 months for the once-off fee and you pay no commission on successful sales, unlike eBay. [/quote] Correct.

I'd have to check the PRS clips! Not bad sounding at all in our studio!

[quote name='lowdown' timestamp='1415866250' post='2604531'] Cool looking Bass. [/quote] Correct answer Heh heh!!!

Toot toot, I'll just leave this here...

I've reviewed one and actually they feel good and play nicely. The review model sent to me was a Kestrel - id like to try the Kingfisher too. Great fit and finish, I think the instruments have been built to a good standard. They don't of course match up to the likes of the Gary Grainger model PRS bass which is just brilliant.

Thanks everyone! Yup the new Hercules is now in the wall, secured. AB1 sits very nicely and the arms don't get in the way of the tuning keys. Now... I have a spare hanger to fill....

[quote name='Raslee' timestamp='1415282695' post='2598725'] So, Korg (Hartke suppliers) have contacted me back, and quickly too, £110 for 1 x 15" XL speaker posted or around £180 for two. Now the cab cost me £100, but i do like it...it has heavy duty castors , is well built and weigh's a ton which is great for my band as they love to carry it . Interestingly Korg in my email put the speakers as 300W, not sure if that's a typo as the originals were 200W, but 300W would be preferable if the newer speakers are that. But i can't stopping thinking about some decent Eminence speakers like the 3015LF ...but then there's tuning the cab, physics lessons etc...BTW how do you tune a cab? And how do you find the litres of a cab? [/quote] The later 15" XLs were indeed upgraded to 300W RMS as I understand it. £180 for a pair of speakers of this quality is actually very good and Korg are brilliant. Buying a pair will give you a 600W cabinet and it'll happily spank a lot of 2x15's out there. A single 3015LF from Lean is £175. Case dismissed

I'd save yourself the bother of possibly having to retune that cabinet to make it suitable for a different speaker - even worse would be to only replace one cone I'm afraid. The 15's in this cab are pretty conservatively rated and my suggestion would be to get the current speaker direct from Korg UK who are the distributors for Hartke.

I've not had a chance to try out the newer TD heads, but one of my favourites from EBS was the TD650 - A model that I spent many an hour beating with a variety of different cabinets when Bass Merchant had that little upstairs shop in Suffolk.

[quote name='Mornats' timestamp='1412876239' post='2572931'] I listened to Queen's Another One Bites the Dust from this playlist and *really* listened to the bass line. Despite it being one of the most recognisable and memorable bass lines on earth it absolutely blew me away listening to it on a good system whilst actively listening to the bass, the mix and the whole thing. Maaaaan what a bass line! [/quote] This is almost another conversation in itself! It seems like an odd question, but I've posed it many times. "How do you listen to music?" - For me, I have to admit that I am rubbish with lyrics and don't know what half of my favourite songs are actually about - but I get very drawn in by the rhythms and even the sound of the mix and mastering. In fact, looking back on it, I should have known I was going to be a bass player as all I seem to hum are bass lines! I definitely 'study' my music though. I get frustrated when I have to listen on a stereo that sounds rubbish or has no low end. I *really* want to hear what the bass actually sounds like! - I'm... I...well... I'm a bass geek. Aren't I? lol!

please

Great stuff, just what I wanted to hear - I've ordered one! Thanks for the speedy replies

Excellent, will look in to those first!

Hey Dingwallians, I've some very good wall mounting hangers for my basses but find that the 'hooks' that the headstock hangs on are too wide for my Dingwall. Yes, I could pull the thing down and find someone with a vice so I can bend the arms in, but I could use that hook for another bass. (Of course ha!) What are you using to hang your 5 strings with that don't get in the way of the Dingwall tuners?

[quote name='Raggy' timestamp='1414862419' post='2594103'] I'm using a Greenboy Fearless F115 built by Guy at Tricky Audio and would thoroughly recommend him as the UK builder to go to, from my experience. The cabs can take a lot of watts and are well engineered. I get some positive comments on the sound it produces. I'm actually thinking about moving on my Dubster and getting an F215 after spending time with this cab. Probably overkill due to the performance of the F115. But what the heck [/quote] Yours wasn't the one with the red baffle and coating featured recently was it?

Here's a link to the design: http://greenboy.us/cabs/view.php?model=fEARful%201515/66

I meant to come back and add them myself! Much appreciated.

I agree the TH500 does sound great with the CN212. I also found that the Eden WT550 with it's parametric EQ does a great job of being able to dial in a tone that works very well with this cabinet. I also found that the Orange AD200B Mk3 delivers a very sweet tone to the CN212 at moderate volume but weighs more than the cab itself!

Dave Green is a top chap! I've enjoyed having a little chat with him every now and then. I love the designs and the ethos behind each of the ranges. ONE DAY I'll get to try some of these cabinets out to see how they fair. Reviews suggest very well it seems. I'd dearly love to hear the 1515/66 model. Ed Friedland has been very pleased with his cabinet: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-YUbQyK5Ls[/media]
