Steve's an absolute gent. Just bought my Markbass combo; no messing about, he knew exactly what he was after and we were done and dusted in no time... other than talking all things bass and checking out a few of my basses.

Yeah it isn't the Overwater guy but he does have form and seems to be known for being economical with the truth. -

I called them and had Paypal not refunded they would have initiated a process but seeing as PP have agreed to refund, they have said to let it run its course. Any glitch along the way and they will step in. -
Can I run two different cabs off the same power amp?
warwickhunt replied to Jamie Snell's topic in Amps and Cabs
Honestly, you are overthinking it. I have ran 4 / 8 / 16 ohm cabs rated from 100 to 1200 watts (in LOADS of combinations) with 100 - 1600w amps and I've never destroyed one yet. So long as you don't connect a cab that is lower rated in OHMS than the amps minimum load, then you just need to proceed with caution and start turning the volume up listening to what your speaker is telling you. -
Acinonyx Nordstrand CAT Bass pup selection
warwickhunt replied to warwickhunt's topic in Bass Guitars
No, he just mention pressing 'all' in. I'll try direct with Carey (don't do Instagram) but was hoping someone might have asked this before. -
I've searched the Nordstrand site and TB (big thread on this bass there) but can't find my answer, so thought I'd see if anyone can help on BC! This question is specifically about the depression of the pup selection buttons. As I understand it the single button depression gets you - both / neck / bridge / off. If I follow this correctly, pressing all 4 together gets you both pups in 'series' (as opposed to parallel using button #1). However, what does pressing buttons 1/2/3 but NOT 4 get you? There is defo a tonal difference between the 3 options; A) just button #1. B) button 1+2+3. C) button 1+2+3+4. Though I don't know what the answer is I do know which one I like. Interested to hear thoughts from owners or those who've looked at this and spotted the answer.

You'd think so... unless you'd already sold it. Maybe he got a higher offer after the end of the sale and thought he'd try his luck. -

Before this was resolved and during my digging, every person who knows him has generally 100% been negative about him. BTW his FB profile (inc CCR band pics/promo etc) has him touting the TKS bass cab for sale. I've taken screen shots of all this stuff as I'd not want him to delete it all and claim it is all made up. I also found on his ebay feedback profile that he sold this same cab a couple of months back (feedback received by him for the cab with identical serial number). Now he either took the cab back because it was a duffer (then why relist it again) or he was simply planning on conning me and hoping he'd get away with the tale of someone collecting the cab. You have to basically judge; what would a decent and reasonable person have done... not what this guy has done patently, for whatever reason! Either way and any way it is pitched, he could have simply refunded me and not let this drag on, especially as it'll take weeks to get refunded to my credit card. -

There's a clear evidence trail that it is indeed the same person. -

UPDATE TO THE UPDATE... I stated a dispute with eBay re this matter; eBay handed this over to Paypal as that is how I paid. Despite being given repeated opportunities to give ANY response re this matter Peter Barton (aka 'vintageinvestments' on eBay) refused to engage in the dispute process (quell surprise) and Paypal have refunded me. Why this guy has dragged this out is beyond me. He clearly did not hand over the cab to a stranger knocking on his door claiming to have won it... how could anyone know he had sold it on eBay and how the hell did they get his address when even I didn't have it? You just wouldn't would you? The main thing is that in about 30 days I'll have the funds credited back to my credit card (almost 7 weeks after paying) and with the assistance of BC I know a lot more about Mr Barton and I'm wise to him should I ever have the pleasure of meeting him professionally/in person. Oh and I'm still in the market for a TKS cab. -
Manufactured 2019, so thanks to Covid19 it hasn't had loads of use! I bought it with the intention of using it with an acoustic (style) 3-4 piece but changes to the rest of my gear makes this redundant. The front-ported 2x10 combo might suit those who aren't so keen on rear porting. It can be stacked with any 8 ohm Traveler or Standard cab, for more volume and headroom. The CMD 102P combo angled cabinet design allows the unit to be used either as a floor monitor or in standard vertical position. The built-in VLE and VPF filters help create a warm and natural sound. Very clean condition and drivers will be barely run in. SPEAKER: 2x10" TWEETER: piezo BASS PORT: front IMPEDANCE: 8 ohms SENSITIVITY: 101 dB SPL SPEAKER POWER HANDLING: 400W RMS (AES Standard) AMP OUTPUT POWER: 500W RMS @ 4 ohms / 300W RMS @ 8 ohms FREQUENCY RESPONSE: 40 Hz to 18 kHz CROSSOVER FREQUENCY: 3.5 kHz WEIGHT: 38.14 lbs / 17.3 Kg WIDTH: 23.03 in. / 58.5 cm HEIGHT: 18.5 in. / 47 cm DEPTH: 18.7 in. / 47.5 cm Trades - I'd never say never but PLEASE do not message me with bits of kit that I can clearly find on BC / eBay / FB for £200 and tell me it is worth £500, I'm not daft and I know how to search for relative values. Likewise '1 off' custom orders that you may well have paid £3000 for but sadly the average bassist values at £500. Sorry it is better if I'm just up front about it. Vintage Warwick basses will always float my boat, likewise unusual esoteric brands. I'm partial to a light weight bass so anything that you 'estimate' to be over 9lb (and will likely be 10lb+) isn't of interest. Be sure to message me with offers and not directly on this thread. I would be prepared to add money to a deal if it was something I wanted... an 88 Streamer Stage I would be nice.

I've had this pair of cabs some years now and I have LOVED the tone and stackability of them. You really have to applaud the design that allows drivers to be arrayed vertically like that. I get that you can tip any cab on it's side but the handle arrangement etc mean this is how it should be done. The benefit of having 4 drivers with the top one near head height as opposed to blow past your knees is the way it should be. You can of course stack them on their side and it's advisable if you are going to use 3 of them (yes, I did have 3 of these cabs + the 1x12). The weight is manageable and I've carried one cab in each hand from car park to venue but the benefit is when carried singly you can walk through door frames without whacking your knuckles... it's the little things that please me. Cabs are rated 400w @ 8ohms each. Eminence custom 10" drivers with 33mm voicecoil, titanium diaphragm. Each cab has a tweeter control (tweeter built into the top driver). W x H x D 356 x 664 x 356mm and 21kg / 46lb Each cab has a genuine TC padded cover. Condition if I am being brutal is average/good. They do have scuffs, dings, scrapes etc but nothing major or structural (the pics are representative of their condition). I've ran these with allsorts of amps from 120 valve amp to 1600w Blacksmith and they perform effortlessly. These are not Neo drivers they are ceramic Eminence drivers and pack quite a punch... dare I use the 'H' word? Buy the matching TC Blacksmith amp as well and I'd do a deal on the lot.

Pleased it resonated with someone. I'm not being too prattish about that am i? I just think that folk need to be honest with themselves, everyone wants a bargain when trading but you can't go saying something that cost £500 (new) off the shelf is worth £500 against something that itself cost £1500 when new... well some folk can I suppose. Obviously some bits of kit hold their value great and others, less so but your equation looks about right.

I think I've gigged this twice since getting it, so it is in immaculate condition. 1600w (can operate down to 2 ohms), 3 presets, built in tuner, 4 band parametric EQ, Tubetone emulation, multiband Spectracomp compression. Preamp in/out, digital recording out - Balanced XLR, AES/EBU, (24 Bit), Dimensions - 483 x 412 x 178 mm / 19" x 16.2" x 7". 12kg / 26.5lb Presently pictured out of its rack case as I was going to use that with another amp but can include it for a further £25 FREE (case is top quality, light and also 'as new'). I'm happy for a prospective buyer to come and try it out. I even have x3 8 ohm cabs if you really want to see its potential... but it is equally stupid loud at 4/8ohms. Anyone concerned that 1600w will destroy their cab, fear not, this amp has a killer feature... a MASTER control. You only need to turn it up enough to blow the bloody doors off; no more, no less. Seriously though, you can run this into any cab, you just turn it down and it can NOT blow your driver up. Why am I selling it? Since lockdown kicked in I bought one of those fancy new technology Handbox WB100 (120w) amps and I already own a Tech Soundsystems Blackcat and a TC Staccato 51 as back up amps, so something needs to go. I'm also about to advertise a pair of TC RS210 cabs (400w each @ 8 ohms), which I would discount the amp £50 if you bought those with it.

Can I run two different cabs off the same power amp?
warwickhunt replied to Jamie Snell's topic in Amps and Cabs
Agreed but we don't know that the cabs/drivers are totally comparable and not been messed with, if you have 2 cabs and 2 channels you gain nothing from running both off one channel! -

warwickhunt replied to Jamie Snell's topic in Amps and Cabs
Way easier to balance what each cab gets using vol knob, if you have both on one channel how do 'you' give each one more/less power? -

The wattage is shared BUT you need to research and appreciate that quoted figures are bragging figures, so are nominal/vague. -

warwickhunt replied to Jamie Snell's topic in Amps and Cabs
Cans - None. Amp - 2.6 ohms if you connect to single channel. -

warwickhunt replied to Jamie Snell's topic in Amps and Cabs
I should have said that your cab ohmage can not / will not change, it is fixed. The only thing that changes dependent upon ohmage / load is your amp. The higher the number your amp 'sees' (has attached) the lower the power output. Putting 2 cabs on as you are talking lowers the ohms and draws more power from the amp. This is all phrased in layman's terms. -

warwickhunt replied to Jamie Snell's topic in Amps and Cabs
You're clouding/confusing the matter. IF each channel of your power amp is separate and can operate at 2 ohms then your 4 AND 8 ohm cab are within its parameters and both can run off 1 channel. However each cab will get a bit more/less power, not the end of the world BUT why not just run 1 cab off 1 channel (ie 4 ohm on #1 8 ohm on #2)? -
I've solved the mystery... it floated away! In all seriousness I hope you get sorted and get the bass rather than get a refund.
