Looking good Kev! But she-itt that’s an expensive head!! I’m guessing you have other cabs too, as that’s quite a lot of wattage there for the One10?

Refused is basically you had insurance, put in a claim and they said no way. Like fraud, or doing something stupid. Not being quoted for is them not wanting to get involved in the first place. You’d need business class, and make sure your gear is insured separately, as often contents cover on motor policies is a pitiful token gesture.

Just had a quick jam with my son, thought I ‘d stick some close up shots of the cab for your judgment. I really like the brown piping!

Just got in from my gig - bloody great! Two of these babies is exactly right for me with these new bands - one was audible, two absolutely own the bottom end of the spectrum! The amp volume was set to about 2 o’clock, so could have given more, but it was not required. I need to get another cajon bag for the second cab, should then be able to fit cab and head in one, and cab and leads/stand/tuner in the other. If I can just get a 2 bass gig bag to sling over my back I’ll be living the one-trip-to-the-car dream.

Wouldn’t a DI be outputting mic level? That’s a lot less than line level, which is probably what the PA speakers want to see, hence being a bit quiet.

Cheers Kev. I had asked about doing a Two10 in tweed the week before, and spotted the website link was live Friday night, so think I might have been first on the list! Two of them are bloody loud for such tiny boxes - think i’m set now! Gig tomorrow night with the noisy lot, but they don’t stand a chance of drowning me out now... mooohaahaaahaaaa!!!!!!

It’s here! Only had time to pull it out the box, play enough to get yelled at by the mrs, then back to work...

That is lovely! I think my next purchase might have to be one like that.

‘‘Tis the season!

Good man! Ready early next week they say - super excited!

A well known comedian from a popular news show once asked me to go score for him. I was not in the appropriate position to oblige. Played bass in the school band with the son of a famous 60’s act. Paul from Morcheeba made a stupid low offer on a valve mic I was selling on eBay.

Yes!

Damn. Sorry to hear about that.

I think the black with cloth will look booming with this sitting on top. I quite like mismatched but matched cabs!

I had been thinking about it since I saw the one off they did a while back. Alex mentioned it to me Friday so I hastily spent some money I don’t have! Broke the news to Mrs today - she took it really well to be fair!!!

That’s an odd one that. The type face looks old, but the headstock shape and bridge look newer. I’d hazard a guess at mid 80’s. The only experience I had with a Hohner bass was a boat anchor of a P about 22 years ago. That had the Fender type headstock shape though.

They are funny though...

Is it a bass, or has someone just been sick in the bag?

Thanks for the explanation! Interesting approach. In one of my first bands 20 yrs ago I often just went straight in to the PA from my Zoom multiFX without an amp of my own. Just seemed easier! With in-ears and really good PAs (slowly) becoming the norm maybe amps/cabs/combos will be gone in 20 yrs?

Excuse my ignorance, but what is an FRFR? And Helix? Sounds like a fast car and a cat, but that doesn’t make sense in the context of the thread.

Yeah, plus 2 look cooler than 1, and now I can turn it up to 11 - tweedy One10 ordered!!!

Nice - thanks for that! So i’ve joined another band, and guess what? They’re LOUD!!! When I ordered my One10 I played in just the one outfit, where we always have a very decent PA provided. Now I’m in two other rock bands my needs have changed. Bloody guitarists with their Marshall half stacks and Fender Twins! I’m seriously considering going Two10 (in tweed - nice!) now as 2/3rds of the time I’m pushing the One10 to its limits. Might have to wait til after Christmas to sell this one and buy it’s big brother though. That should also get a loud gig done to see how it fares.

Buy the MIJ and it’ll all be fine!

I’m not a fan of the synthetic roadworn look. I’d pick the Japanese one. Plus, excellent point made above - you won’t lose money with the Japanese version... and what if roadworn goes out of fashion?!?!

I use an omni over the top of the kit and a kick mic - both together cost about £60 and i’m happy with the results. I used a valve condenser front of kit in place of the kick mic once - fantastic bloom from the kick. I made a sample pack of it with my patient drummer!
