Duratex comes in plastic pouches, if available UK?

I was wondering how you guys could be so behind the times as to be vulnerable to counterfeit 50's. Turns out you aren't!

And 'specially those guys that hang around with musicians, hitting things in time with the music. I am trying to get folks to practice with a metronome so they aren't pushing me around while our drummer is unavailable.

No contract made. No contract broken. Offer away.

I think Reverb's issue would be with the seller, it any. I assume the nature of the fee issue was the seller had fees that he wanted to add to the advertised price or he had to pay a commission on your offer that was accepted?

I missed the whole kerfuffle as the Brave browser on my phone nixed it from the get go.

If running late is that predictable you should build it into your fee in the form of per 1/4 hr extensions to the agreed engagement. A performance for 1 hr 10pm to 11pm becomes 10pm to 12am with a +1hr fee tacked on.

Tourism industry agitating for reinstatement. Afaik the scheme is defunct but the law behind it isn't. In theory with the right paperwork you could still march into the Customs office at Heathrow and get a refund.

HPF frees the bass knob to do exactly that.

Au contrair, they are all taking a response dive below 100hz. That doesn't happen by accident. An amp left to its own devices puts out basically a flat response to whatever comes along. The job of a preamp is to give it some character by messing with the signal that goes to the power stage. Those plots are from a notionally flat set of pink noise being sent to the preamp to measure the relative response in the speaker signal.

When inbuilt it is usually called a rumble filter or subsonic filter, just a HPF by a different name. If you are TC it is robustly ignored in all literature as it is very much higher than everyone else's non adjusting HPF. Afaik Genzler, Mesa, and one or two very boutique brands chocka with onboard processing, are the only ones with adjustable HPF. If you can push your string and watch the speaker move there is no filter.

Got on the tunable HPF train with the amps. Afaik the last amps sold without a subsonic filter were the vintage SWRs. It's a few cents worth of parts to HPF the signal going to the power stage. Cf big expensive parts to HPF the speaker signal.

There's a thread for recommended techs stickied in Repairs forum.

Click bait 'journal'ism.

Various websites claim there are booths at airports where you can claim back your VAT paid. Maybe they are staffed by Russians, the websites and booths both. The UK GOVT site promises much but turns out to only address Northern Ireland shoppers leaving to a non EU country. Pretty sure unless it's the Russians you can take along your own version of the proper form for the retailer to fill out. Pay them VAT. Then claim your refund at the border. The retailer does not have to 'participate' but I think they would be ok filling in your form.

Not sure 500w of TC is worth the sticker excitement but with 4 ohm worth of cabinet(s) should make plenty of noise enough to keep up with a drummer. The key to cabs making noise with watts is their broadband sensitivity. Cabinet makers make up even bigger stories about what "wattage" their cabs handle. A 2 cab solution can be handy for relatively low volume situations allowing a single cab. Some expensive 8 ohm single 12 cabs will do enough with the nominal 250 watts from most 500w amps. TC infamous for massively overstating theirs. 2 of the same cabs will always work well together.

Pretty sure if you email Ampeg they will tell you the 4 ohm tap will be happy as Larry with the 312 2.67ohm stack.

To go with your sequined spats.

Good prospects as each monitor will only need a fraction of the volume if placed well.

A stethoscope would be handy to narrow down which general area is loudest.

Is that blocks glued to each side of the body? I assume spreading the load so the aluminum won't punch out over time? I was reading a bit about them. Spruce bass bar? Glued or screwed?

The cab will have a similar amount of poke as your old 210AV. Amp not so much but with another cab you should be quite ok and could even find it unnecessary. Trace used very sensitive drivers. You could only have used a fraction of the old amp output into the old cab before it would start crying foul.

Indifference. Too many dreamy musicians employed in music shops is your problem. Imagine the airhead bandmates we complain about in threads here being your employees and customers.

Congratulations! Nice to be wanted. Time to learn a bunch of new tunes. This must have been a Thursday night for you as it's Saturday morning here. Better learn that bunch of new songs even more quickly. You don't want to get predictable to that smaller pool of Thursday pubgoers / your burgeoning fanclub.

Can someone please do the Photoshop, beards and guitars would be great, and see if he can't get it then?
