    I use low tension Labella’s on all my basses except the Jabba fretless which has the lightest gauge Deep Talkin Labella flats on, if this is bass you were thinking of at the Sw bash. Bass Direct were out of stock of nearly all their medium gauge Labella’s for ages so in desperation I thought I would try the lightest DT flats and I absolutely love them on that bass, Bassdirect are by far the best supplier of Labellas, good luck in your quest, Mike.

    In my quest to find something light and compact, this came up locally. At 37x32x37 it’s not in Barefaced territory nor as light at 10kg, but it was considerably cheaper S/H. Only tried it out at home and it does seem quite punchy, I’m also intrigued by the speaker which appears to be a twin cone unit, anybody gigging with one of these and how does it stand up on its own ?

    In my guitar playing days, I often used Fender valve combo’s on their side to help with cooling, as long as you can elevate it a little to keep the vent clear it will be quite happy.

    This was my second favourite at the SW Bash, the build quality and finish is outstanding, it was only beaten by the 8” cab having a little more punch to my ears.

    Excellent, something to look forward to at next years SW bass bash ????

    My initial thought was something along the lines of a mini “ Barefaced 10 “ style, although Paul’s suggestion of a sloping front sounds like a good idea, perhaps a combination of the two, good luck !!!

    I would have happily bought this cab at the SW Bash on Sunday, although after seeing some of the 110 cabs around on the day I’m starting to question whether I should go down this route, most of my gigs these days are on the garden party/café circuit. Have to say the 8” was a real surprise to play through , looking forward to the build thread. Mike B.

    I’ve had my Bam for well over a year now with no problems at all, certainly the other users I’ve come across have all been happy with the product. Use it and enjoy is my advice.

    Big thank you to Mrs Scrumpy and the Scrumpets for feeding us and to Mike for organising another brilliant day out, so much stuff to try out, highlight for me was the 8” cab @Phil Starr, beginning to regret not trying to take that one home !!!
  13. wrinkleygit
    It’s always a great market place 👍
  14. wrinkleygit
    No problem Phil, I will have my BAM200 on the day, you’re welcome to have a play with it .

    Mrs Wrinkley is on the road to recovery and I’ve organised a sitter, so I will be there for at least part of the day, certainly until early afternoon, hopefully that leaves enough time for the Scrumpets to ensure adequate stocks of crumble are on hand. I may not have enough time to pick up a cab beforehand, mine is over at a friends, so if anyone has a spare I could use on the day , I would be grateful, I’m also on the lookout for a compact 1x10, should anyone have something for sale, can’t afford “Barefaced” prices tho’, needs to be cheap and cheerful. Will PM Frank with a list.

    Have a look at the TGi extreme range, in particular the classical and small acoustic guitar bags, they will need some extra padding to the sides, but length wise they are close to most shortscale basses.

    I was hoping to bring this along to the SW bash in a few weeks time, there has been a pickup and bridge change since it came into my hands last year.

    Unfortunately Mrs Wrinkley’s health has taken a turn for the worse, so it’s looking unlikely that I’m going to make it this year. Having said that, her planned operation was cancelled literally at the last minute on Friday so anything could change yet !!!

    Masterpiece !!!!

    For years I used a Korg Pandora (PX4D I think) batteries lasted for ages or you could use a main’s adapter, don’t know if there’s anything similar on today’s market place, brilliant piece of kit, perhaps they’re still available on the s/h market, does exactly what you need. Looks like the nearest modern equivalent is the Line6 pocket pod, good luck in your quest.

    I use the TC clip on, had mine for years, works well on guitar or bass and is easy to read even in bright sunlight, battery lasts for ages, if it ever dies I wouldn’t hesitate to buy another.
  22. wrinkleygit
    Here’s mine
  23. wrinkleygit
    Best decision I have ever made !!!!
  24. wrinkleygit
    Another absolute stunner, won’t be long now Frank, actually words alone don’t do justice to a Jabba bass !!!!!
  25. wrinkleygit
    Excellent, thanks for taking the time, Mike.
