  1. Iv'e not tried a Supertwelve but i used to own a Barefaced Compact and Midget, in my subjective opinion the Berg is warmer sounding (than the Compact/Midget used together) but I'd say it pretty much has a neutral voice, it's certainly not aggressive or mid biased and for rock i do tend to dial in quite a lot of mid range if I'm using my jazz, less so with a Precision. I think they are designed (rather like the Barefaced cabs) to reflect what you put in rather than having a distinct character of their own, but as I say for a given input the Berg seemed to me to have a warm bias so i suspect by comparison to a Supertwelve it may have a more scooped sound. Hope that makes sense.

  2. Now with pics!

    I've shown the underside of the cab so you can see 2 small holes where the tilt back casters were fitted, I'll throw these in if you want them. There are a few scuffs on the underside corner protectors and the cover has obvious signs of wear (no tears or burst seams though) but otherwise the cab is in near mint condition.

  3. A very good price and an excellent rig, i had one of these and played some pretty large venues with it. I always thought adding the extension cab massively improved the sound and volume over the combo alone and would say if anyone is looking for a super lightweight 500w rig that will fit in the back of even the smallest car don't hesitate to get this, I highly recommend it.

  4. I tried the TH350 with a Berg AE212 (which is a 4ohm load) and a Precision bass at the weekend in a rehearsal - my impression is that with the Berg you need to dial in a fair bit of midrange EQ and back off the bass to cut through the mix, but I've found this with other amps and this cab. I'll hazard a guess that this amp will really sing with a more mid voiced cab in a rock band situation. The band i was playing with is quite loud and with the volume at 12 o'clock it was fine, I didn't think there was an awful lot more headroom after that point so I'd be a bit wary about anything other than small gigs with this. I'd say its easy to get a good tone from the amp and the drive is very usable giving a nice dose of saturation and mild compression. I'll need a few more rehearsals and the like with this before I get a proper feel for it but it's a nice capable little amp.

  5. I'll try and get my thoughts down about it on Monday after i've used it at band volume. Having now had a couple of hours messing with it at home it is really impressing me but it's all about how it works in the band mix at the end of the day... so i'll reserve judgement until I used it in the band.

  6. My cute little TH350 has arrived, rehearsal at the weekend so I'll get a better idea of how it sounds but on first listen at low volume I'm loving the sound with a little drive dialled in with a P bass.

    I bought it as a rehearsal amp and backup as it's so small it can live in the pocket of my gig bag.

    Anyone been using one of these 'in anger' yet?
