FS: Barefaced Super Twin plus Barefaced cover **SOLD**
Beedster replied to Beedster's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
This gives an indication of size, more to follow Cover, like the cab, is exactly as it left the factory To scale with the king of bass apmplifiers -
Mrs Beedster promotes stage and music events and everything is being cancelled a long way out now, to the point that her main job at present is refunding ticket sales. There’s a real sense of anger that well stage-managed productions with rigorous SD protocols for significantly smaller audience numbers can’t go ahead whilst nail salons, gyms and the like remain open

That has been my experience with Interparcel also, hope this gets resolved either way

Bought from Barefaced in October 2019, gigged twice, rehearsed perhaps 10 times before lockdown, and not used since February this year courtesy COVID. Hard to know what the post-COVID gigging landscape will look like but I think I'm going to move back to Mesa heads and cabs (I'm going to move on my SVT-II also). I can post this, it will be very well packaged. Details are here https://barefacedbass.com/product-range/Super-Twin.htm the cab's in my studio at present, I'll dig it out today and take photos of the unit itself. Would consider PX for a Mesa 1x15 or 2x12 with cash adjustment depending on the cab. I quite like the old Road Ready series to be honest

Seller has cousins in the north of Scotland in the same business

Another from that hotbed of vintage Fenders, the Canary Islands

Far more drama here

No, I’m an asshat -
Hope all’s well Dan, selling a Flea is about the same as selling a limb

Get you there Andy

Wasn't meant to be either really, but c'est la vie. I have to agree with Luke's point above that the description Alex has provided here today was way more useful to me than the marketing email I received, and I suspect the origins of this thread would have been slightly more constructive had the possibilities of the box been better outlined

I think much better without! A friend who works in A&E said that first lockdown they expected uplift in COVID patients, instead they saw uplift in DIY patients. Some of them arrive looking like they’ve been in a road accident apparently. Combined use of ladder and power tool appears to be an especially effective formula
-
We can start again Luke?
-
I can’t look at that

You doubt the data Dave? Go visit a COVID ward, speak to doctors and nurses who do the caring and put their lives at risk every day, and explain to them that it’s Ok, you’re in a band and you need to rehearse. And go to the gym for whatever reason. But the supermarkets are at mostly at fault, cos while you need to play and exercise, people don’t need food.
-
The thing is that so many people justify what they do - rehearsing - and criticise others - running. Reality? They’re all equally risky to you and others. Sorry

How do you know your singer doesn’t have the virus?
-
Absolutely, but singers push out more air, and therefore more droplets and molecules, and they’re indoors
-
I do quite a lot of work in sport, two early studies of Covid transmission suggested up to 10m dispersion for a runner and up to 20m for a cyclist. OK, these athletes are moving so they leave a wake of moving air behind them that makes the problem worse, But a key factor is the intensity of breathing, high oxygen demand produces higher inhalation and expiration rates and volumes. Both gyms and studios with singers are dangerous as the result, the latter more so because singing requires high oxygen demand plus higher rate of expiration than even athletes.
-
The funny thing is that all the various representative bodies produce different data, those promoting pubs say it's the gyms, gyms say it's the nail salons, nail salons say it's the supermarkets, supermarkets say its the pubs I guess I wish we could all hold off a few more months until the worst passes, because I don't think we're there yet.
-
Good, it appears that we should live and let live then.
-
Not sure what you're saying really Ped?
-
Well there we go. Internet forum. Freedom of speech within the rules.

We'll have to agree to disagree I'm afraid Dave, it's the air that's the main issue, not touching equipment. Stay well
