  1. Indeed, GoPro or something similar. They tend to use very wide angle lenses, so you see a huge headstock, normally
  2. Hey granpa, well it was just a plain old jack to jack speaker cable ( not guitar cable ) and about 7 lights lit up Tip this, sleeve that, ring something. I thought i would just get a green light with a thumbs up sign
  3. I thought i'd try and be smart for a change, and blagged one of these cable testers. Reviews said they were fab. I'm sure they are but i find it difficult to read what the displays mean when you test a cable. The manual is about 3" x 4" and about 3 pages. Doesnt really help Help !

  4. Trouble with just using bubble wrap is that the very second you get a damage problem, the courier company will wash their hands of it, claiming poor protection and not packed up to their standards
  5. If it was forklift truck forks, there's not much a cab builder can do to prevent that.
  6. The point is, that even if you win, and they dont pay, you dont get the money. You then have to spend more chasing it The other may well have the CCJ, but the idea of invoking the online action is to get your money back, surely ?
  7. It cant be that bad TB .. the combo works fine without the 2nd cab
  8. Arranged to return it to amp tech on Tues. Will have to leave it with him
  9. The trouble starts when you win, but they dont pay. Read the small print
  10. Ooh wrong thread. Try this one Pedro http://basschat.co.uk/topic/278383-bad-jokes/page__st__5070
  11. Yup, i actually pulled the pre/power sections completely out of the combo. 5.9 ohms sounds about right , do ya think ? Yup. Extension cab was close enough for jazz, at about 6.1
  12. Had to check the TE speaker jack plug. Its the way the TE is assembled makes checking the socket impossible Anyways, reading was 5.9 ohms Checking the site above, looks like they're four 8 ohm drivers wired series/parallel
  13. Hmm...yes i think you're right. You saying i need to check the output jack socket so that i;m getting summed output ? Just checking - my leccy talent is somewhat lacking They could be original speakers, but still could have been messed with. According to the Eminence webby, if the TE 10's were all 8 ohm, 4 can only be wired for 8 ohm or 2 ohm. If they're 16 ohm, 4 can be wired for 16 ohm or 4 ohm If they're 32 ohm, 4 can be wired for 8 ohm
  14. hey, now that's something i didnt think of Time for a test - cheers Mark EDIT Its a 4 x10 with original TE drivers. They're fine
  15. Update ! Fuses arrived, replaced speaker fuse and combo back up and running fine. Again, added 2nd TE cab and the combo instantly sound like the speakers had all blown, farting badly, next to zero volume. Extension cab not much better. Fuse did not blow this time Extension cab ( i may have already said this ) was tested through another amp, using the same cable and it was fine. So it seems that the TE combo does not like a 2nd cab added, despite its ability to run two 8 ohm cabs ?? Any more ideas ??

  18. Mine's even tamer to be fair. Joined band where the guitarist had formed them, and from that day, it was deemed that it was HIS band. I joined them at some point, by which they'd all been together for a fair while, so i was an outsider but i knew the ryhthm git many years ago. We'd done a few gigs, but lead git who's band it was ( remember ? ) was not that good and he played one particular song wrong. and badly, and i had the audacity to point it out a few times. I did it again at our last rehearsal, but this time lead git , who's band it was ( remember ? ) threw his dummy and kicked off like a schoolboy that had been robbed of his lunch money Rehearsal folded, i got kicked ( and happy about it because i would have gone that evening ayway ) Everybody else said, ' well it's HIS band ' but agreed with me out of his earshot. You gotta love gitwrists. They are a planet unto themselves
  19. Mike Masse . on the right. Occasionally has Sterling Cottam ( on the left here ) accompanying, and sometimes Jeff Hall on bass Only covers, but dammit he's good. So are the other guys http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9iVG4kg0sg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_U9-JU-aNo&list=RDG9iVG4kg0sg&index=35 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEpINdKRyrE&list=RDG9iVG4kg0sg&index=30
