  3. Nothing but rave reviews here too, my ABM head has been repaired for free twice even though it was out of warranty edit: Unlike another [color=#ff8c00]British company[/color], who seemingly didn't know their arse from their elbow

  7. [quote name='Bill Fitzmaurice' timestamp='1343871309' post='1756744'] It would be better. Horizontal dispersion is inversely proportional to the width of the source. By making it narrower dispersion is widened. Of course this makes the head placement a bit of a task. BTW, the entire reason why drivers were placed horizontally in the first place was to accomodate a wide amp, first in combos, then in separates. No consideration was ever given to the dispersion issue because the amp designers weren't aware of it. [/quote] If you tip a 4x10 45 degrees the speakers will be even further apart horizontally

    [quote name='Protium' timestamp='1342466438' post='1735720'] Some new fuzzes coming up soon - a 3-knobbed mammoth (oo err) plus a few circuits I've been tweaking [/quote] As promised: [IMG]http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j89/rh15951/Pedals/ee6c76cf.jpg[/IMG] Pair of fuzzes. Same circuit apart from one has an LED indicator, the other has a shape switch (splatter-tastic) [IMG]http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j89/rh15951/Pedals/74523d76.jpg[/IMG] 3-knob Mammoth fuzz (obviously ), super ultra megabright blue LED

  13. I've modded a few Turbo RATs so they work better with bass, good little pedals

    [quote name='mancunianfox' timestamp='1342524819' post='1736479'] Just out of interest, which knob did you drop and why? Just finished a Mammoth myself. [/quote] The EQ because I'm not keen on it and also coz I can fit three knobs in a row across a hammond box
  15. [quote name='Jazz Bass 65' timestamp='1342565798' post='1737307'] Went to the 'Beatle Experience' staying at The Hard days Night Hotel on Sunday 15th July. The Hotel was great and only a couple of minutes from the Cavern Club and Cavern Bar. There were visitors from all round the world who like us enjoyed the live band music on Sunday evening. Unfortunately this did not carry through on Monday evening where we were subjected to solo singer guitarists churning out Beatles songs like street buskers. Like us a couple from Norway were very dissapointed to find and absence of live bands on Monday evening anywhere in the vicinity of the 'Cavern', which, as on Sunday evening, was packed out again, we had paid to stay an extra night expecting to see and hear more live bands. It felt like they were just cashing in on the memory of the Beatles. To travel from the far side of the world as many of the visitors had and only to be entertained by nothing more than busking must be a letdown. [/quote] A "Beatles Experience" that involves music of The Beatles? What did you expect? Felt like they were "cashing in on the memory of the Beatles", this has got to be a wind up surely?
