agreed it's a great read, but what else is out there ?

[quote name='bass_ferret' post='235273' date='Jul 8 2008, 09:10 PM']Its not really a question of buying the most expensive drivers you can get but buying drivers that are the best match for the cab. When I was a lad and the only decision bass players had to make was whether to use one or two 15 inch drivers Electrovoice were the dogs danglies.[/quote]

Fair comment I guess..... but how does one go about matching cabs to drivers without massive expense on trial & error ?

I guess that's what the manufacturers / R&D depts are there to do

It'd be really interesting to hear (for example) about someone transforming an Ashdown cab by inserting Celestians

Great Thread....

After much faffing about.....

Passive Fender Jazz (Ash / Maple) DR Fatbeams

Monster Bass Cable

Gallien Krueger Amps


Just works in a live situation (IMHO)

Guys,

I suppose many bass cabs are built to a budget

Price no object, what bass drivers would basschatters recommend ?

Eminence seem to have a good reputation for bass drivers

what experiences have you had in replacing stock drivers in well known manufacturers cabs ?

Cheers

Still, a pint at the Holiday Inn might be just what I need.[/quote]

now that does sound like a good idea !!

[quote name='martthebass' post='233732' date='Jul 6 2008, 07:49 PM']God that is so tempting Mark,

Somebody please buy this before I decide I don't want a MB amp to go with the Mark Bass Cab that's gathering dust in my porch......

Glad I'm not doing any work up North for a few weeks - that would have been too much tempation.[/quote]

Just give in Martin, you know you want it !!

By the way i'm passing Sunny Donny on Wednesday on my way to Nottingham !!!

Guys,

Got a 2001 on the way (don't really need the power but you know)

hence my mint GKRB700 II (4 months old) is up for grabs

Cheapest you'll see this baby is £399 now Gator case id £60

so how does £275 sound for a quick sale ?

I can take a pic if needed but it's mint condition and you know what they look like !!

[quote name='warwickhunt' post='232778' date='Jul 4 2008, 04:11 PM']Yes I suppose it would be overkill in a venue that size... I'm not coming then Just joshing Going to see the Gangsters of Ska tonight, gigging in Blyth tomorrow and your gig Sunday, busy weekend![/quote]


I love the Gangsters....... P bass into an old Trace Rig - Lush tone, great band !!

Tip Top Bloke this Noirbass !!!

He turned up and gave me some cash..... only downside was he insisted I give him my Aguilar DB750

Thanks for hassle free sale Chris

All the Best

Mark

I hope they get adopted as a pair.... shame to split them up

The best money you'll spend is ripping out that 50c preamp and installing an Aguilar OBP1 !!

I had my eye on a pair of Aggie 112's but i've missed out !!

I'm stuck for ideas really..... after trying all soprts of Gear I've Kinda worked out that a Jazz Bass into a GK Head really works in a live situation, with the Seperate Horn amp in the head the GK Cabs make a fair bit of sense..... thinking about a GK212 neo and a GK115 neo, but i'm open to suggestions

Damn that Aggie DB410 is a great cab.... gonna take some replacing !

[quote name='warwickhunt' post='226907' date='Jun 25 2008, 08:22 PM']I'm not selling but if you want to give my pair of Aggie DB112s a blast I'm sure we could arrange something [/quote]

Thanks Buddy

Might just take you up on that......

Cab now sold

Thanks for all the interest and trade offers it's been interesting !!

If it does, would you consider taking an my as new ABM 2x10 and cover in p/x against your db410, I don't imagine it will take long to find it a matching partner?[/quote]

[quote name='warwickhunt' post='224889' date='Jun 23 2008, 11:52 AM']Hang on Alan, isn't this Spector just a pretty Warwick Streamer... are you gradually conquering your hatred of all things 'W'

It is a cracking looking bass. I'd love to A/B it against the similar spec'd Warwick Streamer![/quote]


We all Know Spectors are the original & best !!!

Big W just a poor imitation......

I bet this is a really bonny bass..... pics will help no end !!

Best

Mark

I'm sure the black headstock is a cost option too.....

looking forward to seeing pics for this one.......
