  1. I folded a cardboard W with return wings at the tips and squashed it flat, then run a Stanley knife through it at an angle. That angle is less than the angle you want the cab to finish at.... Back out at uniform angles and you have a wedge. The back of the 210 cab sits on the floor and the W holds up the cab. Use cardboard from a double skin box and cover it in 50p worth of duct tape. It can't collapse by spreading to a wider W without getting taller and lifting the cab. The front would have to get closer to the back. Quid pro quo it's rock solid until overloaded and crushed. You're welcome.
  2. Just judging their choice of bridge to be insensitive to the sensibilities of the wholesome majority. We Kiwis fully understand Brit humour. We even know how to spell it.
  3. You might have to special order it but a SfX Micro Red Dragon does warm to gnarly. Turning up the gain and down the output by the same amount maintains volume level.as you add gnarly and the low end is maintained along with the gnarl.
  4. That's useful general advice but it was howling with nothing at all plugged in.
  5. The NS Traditional are indeed da bomb on mine. So so close to TRT now.
  6. The way to run a 210 vertical stack with a big tube amp is with a small shelf to stack the cabs on top of said tube amp. This saves the vents from being blocked and saves the amp case top from bowing under the weight. The shelf spreads the weight to the walls of the amp case.
  7. Aside from the non certified stuff there's the Quilter Bass Block but it has optional EQ and overdrive if you drop the master volume and crank the input. That would be handy if your preamp déjour ever bit the dust.
  8. Some joker in Egypt managed to put 1,000,000 miles on his taxicab. Mercedes gave him a new one to put his one in their museum.
  9. A bass rig only needs to be as loud as the drums. A 4x10 is all you need. Get thee to Barefaced Town where all the x10 cabs come with low passing on one side to avoid the nasty comb filtering of mids and beaming highs that come from the x10 format.
  10. An effects loop that can be moved around is a new idea for me. Sounds like there is a lot going on here so you're going to have to give a lot more detail.
  11. You're crazy. Either way it would seem you have to put the other fx after the multi and call it a day.
  12. A bunch of vintage Trace sellers have now bumped their classifieds just for you.
  13. I think you missed that he was sitting down in front of the box, so more likely he got a full spectrum sound for a change instead of all woof.
  14. Tea chest bass has good pitch. A kid played one in my primary school band. He was a big kid. I was on violin.
  15. Aimed at bum suggests set like so: O o o all side by side or o o O Not what you want to hear yourself. o o O is what you want
  16. That's your problem. Bass pickups are a fraction of the output that it is expecting at the Line Input. How come you aren't looking to use the ME50B thing for this? Turning the 210 up on end so it's tall might be all you need to hear yourself properly.
  17. One man's nntdot is another's raging inferno. What I asked was if you had any success amping it up without the 6dB on. Hopefully both amps have a series FX loop. Put bass into one amp and take the preamp out to the other amp's return, and on to the cabs. Play with gains to see if it's still impossible to get volume.
  18. A couple of things. You couldn't get a good tone without the amps +6dB engaged? What happens if you forgo that and turn up the Master Vol? I wonder if your regular amp has a much more effective high pass filter than the new one.
  19. Pronounciation matters. Gen u wine or Gen uin ???
  20. Stuff a banana an hour before you go on. Potassium is your cramp avoiding friend.
