So I'm sure most of us have read about how stacking a couple of 2x10s together apparently produces a much more evenly dispersed sound (I say apparently as I've never tried it in person) but why is it that I've never seen a 4x10 cab which comes constructed this way? It would be sort of like a "slim fridge". Those of you with photoshop skills feel free to do a mock up. I guess awkwardness and stability are possible factors here but in many ways I think it would be easier to transport than traditionally oriented 4x10s? Especially with wheels and a top handle. And a modular 8x10 configuration would still be possible by simply placing 2 side by side. You could even angle one of them out slightly to spread the sound out a bit more across the stage. Is this a ridiculous suggestion? Discuss.

Must be the lighting in the video but somehow that looks like a lined fretless? Edit: it surely can't be, since it definitely sounds fretted...

I have to say, I've just read through this entire 11 page thread and now have serious GAS for a Smooth Hound system! I'm not even gigging at the moment but I don't care - if nothing else it will neaten up the cables from off my bedroom floor

I've not tried any of the amps you've mentioned but it may be worth considering one of the new Hartke combos. Tried one out in the Yamaha music store in London and was quite impressed by how good it sounded even with a 5 string.

In the end there was only 1 bidder (madness) and he/she will soon be the proud owner of this.

Something about this is incredibly sexy. And I usually hate silver basses. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/252927047008

[quote name='Shambo' timestamp='1494704005' post='3298055'] They're selling [s]make up brushes[/s] guitar dusters, and somebody bought one. Weird. [/quote] Ha! Just seen that. On one hand I can almost commend their entrepreneurial spirit. On the other hand...

*ahem* I wonder how many he's sold?

I keep returning to this thread just to drool. Do you have any more pics?

Sade is definitely one of my favourite artists of all time. Actually, I've had a serious hankering in the last year or two to play bass in a Sade tribute band. Chances of that happening though - even in London - are slim. Finding a frontwoman to fill those shoes must surely be like looking for a needle in a haystack??

Ugh. I've just re-read the OP's post and link. Misleadingly rebadged Reidmar 250 it is then.

Neck dive must be horrendous on these??

[quote name='elephantgrey' timestamp='1494415779' post='3295736'] Do and of the toneprints on the TC pedals let you hold down the footswitch to affect things/do a swell? [/quote] To my knowledge, no. And none of them have an expression pedal input either so it's a case of dialling in the sound you want and that's it sadly. Somebody feel free to correct me if I'm wrong here.

Ooh what exactly is this??

Perhaps a bit of a left field suggestion but my vote goes for a TKS 1126. I'm biased since I own one but it really is a fantastic cab. There are a few others lurking here who will heartily agree with me I'm sure.

Edit:
