  1. Four? Do you play in stadiums..??
  2. Just curious - what's that mark between the E-string post and the tuner? Thank you :-)
  3. OK... I'm keen to get my new order in, so I'll now consider posting it. :-)
  4. [quote name='DarkHeart' timestamp='1454282809' post='2968298'] I turned up, 4 bass`s in the back of the car, stood in the entrance to the room money in hand, people looked round and went back to what they were doing. I turned round and went home. [/quote] Sorry to hear that - It's a working rehearsal complex, shop and cafe, so people are in and out all day. The basses might have been better in your hand rather than the car :-)
  5. [quote name='bubinga5' timestamp='1454264071' post='2968020'] Ha ha.!! Excellent. [/quote] Seriously, she's clearly a great singer, but to my ears the vibrato just sounds forced. I can't help thinking how great it would be if she sang it straight(er). But then, she's successful and famous, and I'm not. My opinion sucks.
  6. [quote name='bubinga5' timestamp='1454261600' post='2967971'] Embrace her Vibrato. its her natural voice. Imo she has great power and control. everything i love about a great voice, That and tone. Is why i love Donny Hathawayso much. you like or you don't like that singing style i guess. i can hear what your saying, but tis a very small part of a great sum. would you complain if she was singing for your band.? [/quote] I love Donny Hathaway, but none of his vocal tracks sound like they were recorded while he was standing on a washing machine on a spin cycle.
  7. [quote name='bubinga5' timestamp='1454261600' post='2967971'] Embrace her Vibrato. its her natural voice. you like or you don't lie i guess. [/quote] She speaks like that? My gawd. Poor lass.
  8. What's going on with that vibrato? Is the 'on' switch stuck?
  9. [quote name='mcnach' timestamp='1454071745' post='2966077'] but did you notice a significant increase in the low end? [/quote] Nope - they're pretty much the same.
  10. [quote name='mcnach' timestamp='1454064593' post='2965908'] How do you compare the 2x S112 vs. 1x S212? Does the S212 retain that midrange character but with extra depth? I noticed the cab is a bit deeper than 2x S12 together. [/quote] They're pretty much the same, IMO. Any difference I heard could probably be attributed to the drivers being closer to ear level.
  11. I've yet to run out of steam with either my old S112 stack, or current S212, and I've done plenty o'loud pub gigs with no PA support. That said, I don't play in Sunn O))) - if I did, I'd probably double up.
  12. The TKS S112 stack shines at the gig - they're not full-range solo bass cabs. They've got clear mids and tight, punchy lows where it counts - if that's your thing, of course. M

  14. Hmm.. I didn't get that at all..?
  15. [quote name='Lw.' timestamp='1454000942' post='2965255'] Sorry what's the problem with the ads? A bunch of young people don't want some old guy hanging out at their rehearsals and frankly it'd be weird if some old guy wanted to spend his spare time with a bunch of kids [/quote] I don't think anyone has criticised the ads...?
  16. I've got my next order specc'd out in my mind...
  17. Yip: http://basschat.co.uk/topic/277329-unexpected-models-from-ernie-ball-musicman/
  18. You can unscrew a couple of the poles from the humbucker on a Tele to make it nearly useable...
  19. Bump for this weekend...!
  20. [quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1453810555' post='2962915'] This link takes you straight to the "home" page. [/quote] Whoops.. it's a bit out-of-date now. Here's the correct link, and I've corrected it in Ped's OP: http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?app=forums&module=forums&section=rules&f=19
  21. Hey Mr. Beedster! Any idea of the weight? Thank you.
  22. [quote name='bjelkeman' timestamp='1453707741' post='2961890'] Thanks Wolverinebass! Doug from Darkglass said the Darglass cabs so far are 210 and 410s. I know Tommy has been testing 10s, but he wasn't convinced I think. But the Doug said somewhere (FB, Talkbass, can't remember) that they where quite heavy cabinets. I can't imagine Tommy building a heavy cabinet. So my guess it isn't a TKS Darkglass collaboration. However much I think it would be cool. [/quote] Ah, false alarm... they look pretty, though!
  23. I'll be here until I drop, thanks to my selective use of the 'turn off notifications ' button. I highly recommend it as a sanity preserver :-)
  24. [quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1453638913' post='2961230'] Only "issue" for me is constantly thinking about a 1 box solution, just to save on trips per night. Whilst both cabs can easily be carried at the same time, there are still usually a lot of (punter blocked) doors to negotiate [/quote] This is the route I took - I started with a pair of S112s, and the thought of 'one box' drove me to the S212 (and an S112 for smaller gigs). It's as good as the S112 stack, but the height of the S112 stack was a nice luxury.
