Drop me a PM if so.

    [quote name='thisnameistaken' post='504632' date='Jun 3 2009, 01:08 PM']If you look on the end of the headstock the serial number should be stamped there. The separate 2-digit number is the year it was manufactured.[/quote] The basses with painted finishes tend to have the number filled in by paint and/or lacquer but looking at the the lack of dot inlays, skinny wenge neck stringers, I'd say you're more likely to find the serial number between the tuners on the back of the headstock... the truss rod cover and plastic nut certainly date the bass later than I'd have thought, possibly to the late 90's. Does the bass have a volute at the top of the neck? Just trying to help you date it.

I might give em a go if they're not too dead'n'dirty![/quote] Sorry I should have said they are the 'Blue Label' and they are steels... these; [url="http://www.sadowsky.com/strings/blue_label.html"]http://www.sadowsky.com/strings/blue_label.html[/url] They aren't dead and dirty, simply came on a 2nd hand Sadowsky and I prefer nickels to steels. Yours if you want them.

    The Sadowsky blue steels will fit any style bass as they came off a Fender but the D'Addarios will ONLY fit a short scale bass as they came off my Bolin which has locking machines and they are cut short to suit. Obviously not brand new but rather than bin them I thought I'd see if any of our less affluent or curious members might like to try them. Cover the postage and they are yours.

    This range of Bass Custom (BC) H&K cabs (15s 10s 12s whatever) are IMHO the best cabs that H&K have ever produced. Not so sure that many buyers would appreciate that and pay £200 for an old 2x15!

    [quote name='Born 2B Mild' post='502562' date='May 31 2009, 09:11 PM']Mmmm. I believe the Shuttle can work as a pre-amp. What sort of wonga is needed to add such a power amp? I've got a feeling I'm not going to like the answer![/quote] I believe Ped and Dood have both researched and purchased 'relatively' cheap compact power-amps. However, I was offering the suggestion of selling the Shuttle and getting either a rack or pedal pre-amp; otherwise you'd be better off going for a powered wedge (or expensive option like the Berg IP) or combo running the signal from a line-out from the Shuttle.

    [quote name='northstreet' post='502505' date='May 31 2009, 07:39 PM']I am so sorry - I should have made it very clear I was talking 'in principle', and offering a general agreement to the OP's idea without having direct experience of what he/she is wanting to do. That's why I asked him/her to let me know how they got on. I must remember the audience I am talking to in any future posts.[/quote] Don't get me wrong, I wasn't having a dig at you or the OP Doubling up on cabs is generally a far better option than adding more power and something that I'd heartily recommend, especially if you are keeping to the exact same cab. However what I was trying to get at was that there is a point reached where the number of speakers and volume starts to become counter-productive as everyone else in the band starts upping their game in order to be heard; mush and anarchy ensue.

    [quote name='northstreet' post='502492' date='May 31 2009, 07:21 PM']I've been thinking about doing the same. I run a Hartke LH500 into a Hartke VX115 (having replaced the driver with an Eminence Kappa Pro) which gives me 350 watts at 8 ohms. That's enough for most gigs but occasionally it would be useful to have a bit more volume, so adding another 8 ohm cab would give me the full 500 watts, and the extra power and more speakers should do the job nicely. Warwickhunt is right about the PA, but only if you run the bass through it - we don't. Having read a number of threads about mixing cabs with different drive units, the way I understand it is that it's not always a good idea, so another 1x15 would seem to tick all the boxes - it's a (relatively) cheap way of getting more volume and there shouldn't be any unwelcome issues with your sound. Let us know how you get on.[/quote] Read the OP again... TGE is talking about running a [u]pair[/u] of [size=4]2x15[/size]'s NOT a pair of 1x15's!
  24. warwickhunt
    If they are both 8ohm (or 4ohm if your amp can run at 2ohms), then no reason why you can't... but unless you are playing some huge venues why would you; even then, your PA should be doing all of the work rather than you blasting your band mates and starting an onstage 'sonic war'!
  25. warwickhunt
    The cabling can't be what's bothering you as you'd only save yourself a grand total of '1' speaker cable by getting a combo and if you start adding an extension cab to the combo then you negate the whole saving of that 1 cable! There are plenty loud and light combos but tbh the smallest and lightest of them would need an extension cab, so you then have bigger and heavier loads in order to match your current set-up. Hence IMHO, I'd stick with what you have rather than moving to a combo.
