It'd be either an Aggie DB751 or an Ampeg SVT VR, both of which do go to 2 ohms. So again, if I daisy-chain the 2 212s into 1 amp output and the 412 into the amp output it'd work and be 2 ohms, yes? Steve[/quote] Yes Steve, if the amps go down to 2ohms then the scenario you suggest will work. TBH you could daisy chain all of the cabs from one output the effect would be the same but the benefit of your way is that if a speaker lead fails you'd still have output (whereas if the speaker lead to the first cab in a 3 cab daisy chain failed you'd have nothing).
  2. [quote name='Steve Spector' post='1099808' date='Jan 23 2011, 04:49 PM']Just a quickie on the Aggie 12 cabs. If I were to get 2 DB212 cabs at 8 ohms each then wanted MORE volume, could I also get a 4 ohm DB412 and use all 3? So one lead from the amp to the 412 and one to a 212, then an out from this 212 to the other one? Steve[/quote] Not unless your amp went to 2 ohms which very few do (Peavey amps often do but not many others)! However if you had a pair of DB2x12s and you needed more volume you'd be bleeding from every orifice starting at the ears. In all seriousness if you needed more than a pair of DB212s then the PA should be handling the volume side of it FOH and they should be plenty enough for on-stage monitoring.
  3. [quote name='karlfer' post='1099338' date='Jan 23 2011, 09:17 AM']Hello Kalim. Pics to come? How old is this fella as can't find anything on t'internet after 2005 (but I am dim ). Cheers, Karl.[/quote] As the former owner of the cab I can say that it's pre 2005. You'll not find anything on t'Interweb as the site was updated when Tech Soundsystems changed to Tecamp. Nice light cab.
  4. [quote name='obbm' post='1098837' date='Jan 22 2011, 04:54 PM']That is in amazingly good condition. What's the back like?[/quote] You'd be gutted if it was like a pub dartboard!
  5. I see! I thought the dismissal of the two cab manufacturers was due to tone and they are very different, hence my curiosity. Again I'm not pushing/pimping the DBs but I don't find that they have such a mid bump (with my amp flat) at least not as much mid as others cabs I've tried with my amp (Schroeder cabs and Bergantino 10's spring to mind as being more mid biased than Aggie DBs) but neither would I say the DBs are uncoloured, so agree they may not suit you. Best of luck finding what you want.
  6. Just out of interest why those particular 4 and not the BF or Aggie? I could understand if the BF and Aggie had a similar sound which you dislike but they are absolutely poles apart in terms of tone and the Aggies aren't a million miles apart from some of the cabs you've shortlisted! Each to his own and I'm not plugging the Aggies in any way, I know that they won't suit everybody, but I am interested in the 'why' of your shortlist.
  7. Cheers people, all helpful.
  8. Hang on! Members and Moderators alike seem to think that links to eBay auctions should be in the 'ebay' section of the forum and in fact one has just been moved! [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=119642&st=0&gopid=1098519&#entry1098519"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...p;#entry1098519[/url]
  9. [quote name='Hamster' post='1098486' date='Jan 22 2011, 11:27 AM']Word [/quote] Having reread the thread in the 'Site Forum' re. eBay links I'm now MORE confused than ever! It would appear that the OP was correct in posting his basses in the for sale section as there is clarification that the eBay section is now NOT for the advertisement of members items on eBay but is in fact; "... for the discussion of Ebay auctions. Please do not promote your own auctions. If you have something to sell, please use the For Sale forums."!
  10. I've been promoting my new band via my personal Facebook account but it isn't ideal due to work regulations (it is 'recommended' that if staff do use FB then it is used with maximum security and limited to friends viewing info and photos, not worth debating as I can see the reasoning and in principle I agree). As a result I've created a page which is linked to my personal Facebook account; this seems OK but the tabs that I have available seem far inferior to other local bands (I've looked through the available tabs and I can't add say a Bandpage which some have) and I'm finding it difficult to invite people to 'like' the page without sending a request to befriend me through my personal account... does that make sense? What I'd like is a bit of guidance/advice on the best way to utilise Facebook as a tool to attract people to my band page, which will in turn keep folk informed of our gigs etc!
  11. Unless you are putting a sale price on these Leroy I'm afraid the mods will be moving them to the eBay section. Not sure if the new rule re. 50 posts before putting a thread up in the eBay section is in force as yet but there was talk of it!
  12. Damn, if it had one less string!
  13. [quote name='Musicman20' post='1096995' date='Jan 20 2011, 11:54 PM']Me thinks it's the same one...[/quote] We know it is now but I'm disappointed that there is no mention of the chip in the body that has a chunk of paint off down to the wood... immaculate to me means pretty much 'immaculate' NOT chipped!
  14. [quote name='Geddys nose' post='1096723' date='Jan 20 2011, 07:56 PM']Perhaps this- It Just appeared at Marks today. [url="http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Bongo4Lava.html"]http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_sp...Bongo4Lava.html[/url][/quote] Gut feeling is that it can't be the same one as I'd like to think that Mark would declare the ding down by the jack socket on the OP bass, as it is through to the wood, which would hardly constitute immaculate!
  15. [quote name='warwickhunt' post='1096508' date='Jan 20 2011, 04:13 PM']If you are talking 'new' then the latest Bass Collection Jive (J) and Power (P) basses look to have good reviews and look tasty into the bargain! <edit> just realised that they are £249 - £349 (depending on model and colour) so you could afford one but I wonder if cash could loosen that price a tad especially in the present economic climate and maybe you could get one of the better models.[/quote] Ooops! Just realised that even though it has EMGs they are passive!

  18. [quote name='phsycoandy' post='1095714' date='Jan 19 2011, 09:55 PM']May have to take advice on that as Im not sure, all I do know is it's stock and untampered with! such a dream to play at 8lbs or so.[/quote] Will you stop mentioning that it only weighs 8lb!
  19. Just add that the OP bought a Ltd Ed Streamer (no surprise there ) from me and he's a pleasure to deal with!
  20. [quote name='steve-soar' post='1093588' date='Jan 18 2011, 10:39 AM']Walnut.[/quote] I'm sure it is a type of walnut but iirc the wood was actually saman (spelling may not be spot on). I've still got an old USA Bass Guitar magazine with the original review somewhere!
  21. Pah! Looks nothing like a Thunderfunk... Somebody got a cracking amp.
  22. Re. the piezo - When you say a bit weaker on the E string, how bad are you talking and is it a case of requiring a replacement piezo?
  23. [quote name='martthebass' post='1091651' date='Jan 16 2011, 06:12 PM']Calling Warickhunt[/quote] I know but it is blue! It shouldn't matter but I can't get away with blue basses (possible exception being a very pale blue) otherwise I'd have been onto it.
  24. [quote name='Chris2112' post='1091181' date='Jan 16 2011, 11:02 AM']I love that bass, the woods are awesome and the fish inlays are superb! If they would do those inlays one of their amber flamed maple basses...[/quote] Yes! Now you are talking my ultimate bass though I'd be inclined to specify Quilt Maple.
  25. 'Probably' the only bass that I'd go out on a limb for!
