I would LOVE to have five minutes with that rig!!! Hehehe!

No, but imagine the power!!!! Especially having a pair of 8x10" cabs - one clean and one distorted! Phwoaaaar!

Well Hi Jake from Trickfish! I honestly never expected someone from your company to reply to this post but cheers for the update and I wish you all the best with this amp. Good luck! (what a nice man)

That can do 2x2500w at 4 ohm https://www.bassgearmag.com/trickfish-amplifications-unveils-groundbreaking-bullhead-3k-amplifier/ blimey!

Just found this thread from loooooong ago but I wanted to say a bit about a new (to me) TC Tone Print amp. I've had a BH800 for a few months but just never used it much - my live/practise rig is a CMD121 that I can put on a trolley and take on the bus or tube. In terms of size and weight it's knock-out. I also have an NY121 cab that I can use as well, though that means taking a car/taxi and honestly I don't often need it. Also, for home practise I go through a preamp into a tiny pair of desk monitors that gives me a nice full-range sound that doesn't go through the walls and annoy the neighbours. But... I ended up with a TC BH800 amp and though I've had it for a few months I've not had the chance to try it out but I'm away from home and have the NY121 cab with the head and finally got the tone print to work. And... I have to say it's a lovely, lovey amp. Really sweet, warm tone. There's a valve dirt tone print that can add just a tiny bit of grit to the tone that makes the whole thing very warm and organic. Very impressed. Not sure what situation I'd use the TC in but at the moment I'm enjoying it enormously!

I'd accidentally been sent a six string pack and rather than throw away the sixth string I offered it on Basschat for free. MarcDan asked for it and after I'd sent it off we got chatting and he very generously sent me a sight-reading book and some top transcriptions - very much appreciated! Lovely to deal with @MarcDan and a credit to Basschat. Cheers!

Yeah, I saw this but I've found the eq on the Darkglass to be very odd and nothing like the standard graphic eq you'd get on an amp. I'm not sure if the gain/reduction is too subtle but you don't get dramatic changes in tone - I guess the point of the EQ on the ADAM is to change the tone of the distortion, not to change the output tone. If I want to totally roll off the high end like using the tone control on a passive bass I use the treble on the Metaphors - does the job beautifully.

I LOVE the distortion on my ADAM. It's a top-notch preamp I use daily going into a desk and the cab sim is oustanding. I like the compression, though I don't use it much BUT I've never really liked the EQ ... but last night at a rehearsal it made a lot more sense, dialling down the lower frequencies to calm a bit of boom in the room through the supplied GK 2x10" combo. It's not a "nice" eq for making lovely sounds, it's a live tool for sorting out problems. It doesn't do the nice smiley-face scoop/preshape slap tone that a TE is perfect for, but that's okay. Maybe one day I'll get a GEQ pedal. I think.

Hi. Just checked and someone messaged me first so it's on hold. Apols.

I'll post it back to Bass Direct later today if nobody wants it. I have a phobia of things going to waste!

I accidentally got a six string instead of five string set. Not worth returning for exchange as the postage would be more than the refund so if anybody wants a 30 guauge string send me an SAE and I'll post it back. https://www.bassdirect.co.uk/product/dr-dragon-skin-quantum-nickel-bass-strings-medium-multi-scale-6-string/ It's from a multiscale set but there's no tapering on this one so it'll fit on anything.

Update - managed to play the first fret on the 5th string. Got there slowly and not pushing myself but it's a relief to know that I'm on the mend! Gonna take me a while before I'm comfortable around the fretboard but really good to know I'm back on the mend!

Thanks for the advice!

Well yes. I mean careful not to do any more damage! At the moment it’s in a single piece. I broke my other shoulder before and now I’m part metal !!

I have to be careful not to turn a fracture into to a break!!!

I made some very expressive utterances…
