The buffered J pup is pretty characteristic. I don't know how easy it is to replicate...

I binned tweeters a while ago when I got my TKS112s. The driver deals with the highs now, and it's a beautiful roll-off.

[quote name='warwickhunt' timestamp='1386965372' post='2307037'] Vertical config... tip it on it's side you mean. [size=4] [/size] [/quote] But... But.... The badge will be WONKY!!

The only thing that bugged me a little about the 1126 is that it's squat, like the Berg 12s and Aggie DBs, so it's firing at your calves. Not a problem with a pair (that would sound massive..!) but if it was my main single cab, I'd get one in vertical configuration.

Cool...thanks, Mr. Conan! I think an EQ tweak would have worked wonders on the 1126. I actually found it to be the opposite... very wide, with a big, open low end.

[quote name='bjelkeman' timestamp='1386948377' post='2306728'] I don't play a six string, so keep that in mind. But, I do have a pair of W2126, and I have heard most of the TKS cabs The speakers with the extra 6 for mids and highs are more full range in sound. Not everybody's cup of tea, but personally I would have gone for a 1126. [/quote] Based on what I've heard, i'd agree with this. Drop Tommy a line - he'll give you the lowdown...

[quote name='nottswarwick' timestamp='1386503069' post='2300722'] Midlands trial at all? [/quote] I'll suggest it to Tommy - see what the new year brings. Here's a pr0n shot from Saturday night. I swear to god... running both of these cabs together - which I don't get to do very often - is nirvana.

Thankfully there's a rich tradition up here of folk with electric bass. And songs. And dynamics. And middle eights. We're almost unique. :-)

[quote name='Kiwi' timestamp='1386619247' post='2302313'] Shurely shum mishtake?! [/quote] Apparently not, but who knows?

By the way, here are some pics of a Fender-endorsed '59 prototype. Presumably, Herbie's followed this... Yep - it has a Precision decal...

Ah, it was a general comment aimed at lots of people, Clarky. It wasn't a direct reply to you.. honest! As for your boxer shorts, if they have a skunk stripe, they're definitely 2012. :-D

'Herbie Flowers says he bought it on that date, so that's all there is to it' is never going to be the start and end of the discussion. People are passionately interested in the origins of basses like this, so they / we want to talk about them and analyse them. Just like the analysis of a billion other topics across the internet every day...

[quote name='UglyDog' timestamp='1386609025' post='2302120'] That's a pretty black/white statement from him there. [i]I bought the bass on Oct. 12, 1959.[/i] So what's the suggestion from the doubters here? Is he a bit confused? Is he a [i]liar[/i]? What? [/quote] I can't accurately recall what I did last week, never mind 55 years ago...

I'm sceptical about this one, too...

No problem - I'll add you to the list. :-)

Yeah - me too. My trusty ipod is of similar vintage...

I might be looking at this a little simplistically, but surely there is only a case to answer if promises are broken and cabs are taking longer to arrive than agreed?

I knew you lot would spout puns as bad as this.

Yip - I've always referred to them as kettle leads.

I would never expect a used amp to come with one, and I would probably forget to include one if I sold an amp on (just ask Beedster... he'll confirm I've done it before!). I'd have to remind myself to do it. I have a couple of heavy-duty cables which are 'my' cables. Any others (usually cheap) I pick up along the way go straight into my cables box, and get forgotten about.

Oooh - it's Blackbird. Presumably it's not the room Rush did Clockwork Angels in, 'cos that sounds cack.

[quote name='51m0n' timestamp='1386256822' post='2297805'] Here is an example of a band all in one room doing tracks in one full take, that sounds frankly incredible:- [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=exQRfHbSwn0[/media] [/quote] That is quite awesome.
