Got a couple of quick questions for you guys if you'd be so kind im assuming the "Graft" series are a more basic line, "budget" models for lack of a better word? What kind of waiting time is on them? I really want a 5 string Recurve... will have to drop the man an email at some point. The acrylic impregnated woods looks brilliant too.

[size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#222222]Hi folks, I'm upgrading my rig and recently bought said amp which I am delighted with, lightweight and sound fantastic. So I'm looking to get a nice cab for it, I'm currently using a Warwick WCA 410 pro, it's "okay" but I'm sick of lugging it about; it weighs 31kg and is a bit of a cumbersome size, especially when carrying it through doorways.[/color][/font] [font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#222222]So I've been doing a fair bit of reading on where to go from here, but I'm completely spoiled for choice for a nice smaller, powerful, lightweight bass cab. Kind of had my heart set on a 2x10" for no particular reason other than I could eventually get two and have a modular 4x10 for bigger gigs (I'll likely never need a second I imagine).[/color][/font] [font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#222222]Been looking at Bergantino, TKS, Schroeder, Purple Chili to name but a few, I know it's not what it's about but I love how the Purple Chili cabs look! I also emailed Barefaced about their line and they recommended their Big Baby 2, though I'm a bit skeptical about a 1x12 to be quite honest, despite all the bumf on their site.[/color][/font] [font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#222222]I'm currently playing in a loud pop/ rock/ classic rock cover band with three (I know...) guitarists, using an American Jazz bass and a Spector Euro 5LX, I have a Musicman Sterling on order too. I'm usually DI'd live. I've also been inspired a great deal by Nathan Navarro and wanna experiment with lots of effects, dubstep type stuff and massive ambient soundscapes (though this may never leave the house) so I'm looking for something that can do it all really, and be lightweight/ smaller than a 4x10![/color][/font][/size] [font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][size=1][color=#000000][size=4]Any advice or guidance with your experiences would be greatly appreciated [/size] [/color][/size][/font]

Thanks for the reply Dave, that's pretty much what I needed to hear! I'm afraid I reside in the very far North of Scotland (Any further and you're fall in to the sea) Quite a bit away from Derby haha, but thanks very much for the offer. I'm used to buying things without trying due to my location unfortunately! Genz seem to be decent bits of kit, never really read much bad about them, so I don't think I can go too far wrong. *touch wood*

Hi folks, long time lurker and first post here. I've been looking to physically down-size my rig for a while now and came across the Shuttlemax 12.2 on bass direct and saw that it's currently going for a decent price, has anyone here had any experiences with this amp? I currently play in a hard rock/ pop and everything in-between cover band, and I enjoy playing a bit of punk and metal also, so I'm wondering how it would fair in these situations. I've watched some youtube vids of the Shuttlemax series and they tend to be using the amp very clean. My main set-up at the moment which I use in band is an American Jazz Bass > Sansamp BDDI > Ampeg B2RE > Warwick WCA410 Pro. 90% of the time I use my fingers, the odd time I play with a pick. I've been in touch with Zilla abut getting a 2x10" cab made so that's what I'll likely be running it through, the end game is to get rid of most of my gear and replace it with less but "higher end" gear; a couple of basses and a small(ish) rig EDIT: I'm assuming the 2 pre-amps don't correspond to the 2 power-amps? I did think about having one side going to one cab and the other going to a second cab for a stereo set-up... It was a complicated question to try and google.
