Bridgehouse

I’ve not tried him yet. I’ll leave it for a bit and drop him a line later in the month. I think it is fixable (from when I dropped it off) and I guess I will see what the cost is etc. However, whether I keep it when it’s back here is up in the air. I’m sure it will be totally strong as a fix and perfect - but, you know, when the confidence goes, it’s difficult to get back

Mentally, it’s already there...

No. Haven’t heard from Jon since I dropped it off...

The Helix has a very good global EQ - and a number of other very good EQ “blocks” - it has a Mic in and I’ve recorded vocals through it very successfully - it’s certainly not limited to guitar and bass

Actually IIRC Barefaced primarily made the FR800 as a PA speaker - so no different to anyone else

I just have to know - what letter did you star out? Was it an ‘s’? Or an ‘n’? Or maybe an ‘r’?

Yeah and I’ve still got the little pencil I nicked at the same time 🤣

I was joking - it was in response to the “P basses look cheap cos of the Argos catalogue ones” comments 😂

Pre CBS precision? pfftt. Rubbish.

I’ve checked the speakers. They have never had slap played through them.

We will always have stingray.

He might have run out of “grimaces”

Don’t ask.

1964

I got a P bass because it was the only thing I could afford at the time:

Gut wrenchingly bowel movingly windowbreakingly thump-you-in-the-chest loud. That’s what it is

Lol. I killed rock and roll when I started this thread. Tho my rock and roll credentials have been restored by acquiring this:

Another one what?

No, nor me..

Dunno whether it’s gas or not.. don’t get me wrong, I’ll be mostly gigging frfr - but I can see this stack getting a few outings when I really want to give it some..

Gave it a proper clean up today and fixed the scratchy pots. Wow. Just gets better this does.

The only Ampeg combo that ever really impressed me was one of the “T” models with a tube preamp - but even that was low output. I would suggest something with more heft and power as well. If you can stand the weight you can get some seriously powerful Trace watts for buttons these days..

Does this make me the “FRFRFather”?

Depends on if the fishman outputs at line level

It needs an outing... but if low volume is anything to go by (low volume.. lol..)
