  1. Fair points. The bottom end isn't what I'm after; the k212 is a great cab and I love it. The cab is an annoying size. I'd add a 2x12 if I could find something that would fit tbh.
  2. Even though the head will put out 500w at 4ohms? The k-212 is 8ohms, so 300w. Full 500w with another 8 ohm cab!?
  3. Advice needed on Peavey 115 BW This is sort of related to another if my posts. I picked up a Peavey Nashville 115e 1x15 cabinet for £30. I'd hoped to use it as an extension cabinet with my 2x12. I had no idea what it was before I collected it! There's almost no information on this thing online. *maybe* it was made for pedal steel (hence the Nashville thing). Sounds decent enough with my small guitar head and 7 string. Can anyone tell me what the impedance on the speaker is, or at least how to find out myself, please? Thank you all.
  4. The TC Electronic K series is really hard to find. They were discontinued years ago and an awkward size. They are indeed 8 ohms. I used to run a 2x15 back in the day lol.
  5. I hope someone has some ideas because it's stumped me. I have a TC electronic k-212 cab, which I use with a Tech 21 vt bass 500 head. Currently I get 300w output at 8 ohms, but need more volume as the genre of music I'm playing has changed. I want to add a 1x15 cab to go under the 2x12 cab I have., or a 2x12 that would do the same/stack on top. I ont want to drop £1000+ on two new cabs. I'm struggling to find anything suitable to do the job. I need one that's big enough to stack the 2x12 on top of safely. The k-115 is incredibly hard to get now.. They all are. Ideally I'd get one. I didn't think ahead!! The cab measurements are: W x H x D 690 x 395 x 456 (from the product page) Budget is sub £600. Thanks for reading.
  6. I took my daughter and her friends to the 'Forever Nu' Nu Metal tribute gig at The Tivoli in Buckley. £16 a ticket for a 6 hour gig isn't bad. There was bands doing tribute to Evanescence, Korn, Machine Head, System of a Down and Marilyn Manson. My kid is a proper emo, who was born too late I think and she *loved it*. It was nice for her to see live music and she played bass loads yesterday; learning Manson songs lol.
  7. We were there for a few beers on Saturday before so going to see Behemoth. It was pretty traumatic. Haha.
  8. Behemoth at Manchester Ritz on Saturday. Supported by At The Gates (excellent) and Wolves In The Throne Room. Seriously overpriced beer but an amazing show. I was saw Behemoth in 2002, and they barely filled Bradford Rios. The Ritz was sold out.
  9. My band played at Grand Central in Manchester in 2003 or 2004. I remember nothing about it except getting changed in the disabled toilet. I don't even remember how we got there (we live at the other end of North Wales), whose kits I used. Nothing. Total blank. I was talking about it with my brother and my friend while we were there on Saturday before the Behemoth gig. They had a similar experience with the addition of "It was awful" . So that as my worst gig I reckon. The band disintegrated a few months after that (last gig was in Rhyl!).
  10. Update. The truss rod cover was reversed for some reason. I will need new screws. Truss rod cover of Westone Thunder 1A bass by Hywel Cross, on Flickr I removed the strings and cleaned up the sticker (scraped it off with the edge of a CD, then used nail varnish remover). Westone Thunder 1A bass starting to be stripped down for deep cleaning. by Hywel Cross, on Flickr I will remove the bridge and give it a good clean. The electronics look to be in good nick.
  11. Westone Thunder 1A bass (1983) by Hywel Cross, on Flickr The truss rod cover is the correct shape, but is white and has no logo. Weird. Maybe the previous owner reversed it? I will pull it off when I change the strings.
  12. Flickr photo Nice colour. I will post a pic asap. That's what I reckoned about the knobs; they're pretty pricy. The best thing is that it was FREE!!!!!! 😎
  13. I just picked what appears to be a Thunder 1A. One P pick up, two to be and one volume control, with 2 switches. The control knobs are black plastic with numbers, not brass though. The serial number puts it at mid 1983. It's a bit tatty cosmetically but the electronics look tidy and the neck is good. Any ideas why the knobs are plastic? Replacement brass ones are really ££££
  14. Just booked tickets for Behemoth (in Feb next year)
  15. Iron Monkey at The Ruby Lounge. Really great show.
  16. Blood Red Throne at Hammerfest. Awesome live show. Great musicians.
  17. Ooh. My missus has an OCD clone somewhere. I will have to give it a whirl. Nice demo by the way.
  18. I bought it as an alternative to the Vox Amplug. I was not expecting much to be honest, as I remember my brother having a guitar zoom in the early 2000s. It was horrible. This is good though.
  19. I bought one last week for use as a headphone amp and practice tool. I'm finding the drums/rhythms very useful. Excellent value for money.
  20. Bought a Thomann one. It's not half bad. The colour is awful but looks like it will do the job until I buy a Fusion double gig bag.
  21. I've been lurking for awhile, and have posted in a few threads, but figured I'd be polite and introduce myself.
  22. I'm 38, have played bass since I was 14, but concentrated on drums from age 20 to last year. I played drums in black metal bands generally. My bass playing is pretty metal influenced too; I like sludgy, heavy grooves generally. I had sold most of my gear to fund drums (SWR Workingman head, Peavey 1x15black widow cab and some basses) so I had to buy new stuff recently! Basses - Charvette by Charvel 4 string (my 1st bass), Active EMG pickups, EpiphoneToby Deluxe Amp - Tech 21 VT Bass 500, TC Electronic K212 cab Pedals - Dunlop Cry Baby Wah, EHX Bass Deluxe Big Muff, Way Huge Swollen Pickle, Tom'sLine Tuner. Danelectro Fabtone distortion (the old burgundy one!). Little Bear Wooly Mammoth clone on its way to me in the post too. I am thinking of picking up a Harley Benton fretless for a bit of cheap fun. I miss my Status fretless
  23. I just ordered a Little Bear Mammoth Wooly fuzz. Hopefully will play nice with my other pedals.
