Captain Rumble

my compact has cloth on a wooden frame held in with velcro I know because i had speaker fixings come loose and had to remove said cloth to fix. That velcro Alex uses is really good stuff had to prise one corner out and gently tease the frame out if you do this be carefull as the frame is not to strong and the way the cloth is fixed to it could be better but having said that mine has survived the event unscathed. john

+1 for the Allmans amazing band

I ordered the Roq Solid cover without the padding and its just what I was after - a nice waterproof, light weight cover for transport between car and stage/practice area. Just a note to say that the standard cover comes with the opening on the long end, i.e you have to put the cover on when its lying sideways. I would have personally prefered it to go on when sitting vertically but still, semantics I guess, it will do the job nicely. Thanks for the advice guys.[/quote] I got 4 extra feet from Alex and fitted them on the side means I can stack the cab any way I like for use and transport etc and the landscape format is good for me as I always have the cab on its side in storage and transport

[quote name='dave_bass5' post='964520' date='Sep 22 2010, 02:39 PM']He does whats needed and yes, he gets the job done but i bet if he only use done bass for a gig no one would notice.[/quote] I bet people on here would And be able to tell what guage strings he was using

As i dont have the massive levels of talent that you guys obviously do I can only listen in awe to him playing exactly what the music required of him, unless its at Wembly of course where the sound is so bad you cant hear most of what he is playing anyhow

[quote name='razze06' post='906915' date='Jul 27 2010, 12:01 PM']At house practice volume, the differences are already obvious: the compact pushes out far more low end that the 2x10, but is less crisp and defined in the mid range. In essence, to my ears the compact sounds a lot warmer throughout, and my ideal solution would be use the tecamp AND the compact together. Alas, that can't be easily done, since the 2x10 is a 4 ohm cab...[/quote] I own a compact and use it with either a puma 350 or an Eden wt 500 bridged (600w) and the diferences between them are quite pronounced. I feel that the puma is probably a bit short on watts into 8 ohms to get the best out of the compact and I also feel the sonic characteristics of the Puma are more suited to smaller drivers (prepares to be shot down in flames by those cleverer than myself). Using the Eden I still have all the bottom end I could want but I definately have more mid top without resorting to extream eqing. I would suggest if you get the chance try the Compact using a diferent and preferably more powerful (into 8 ohms) amp. The Compact likes watts lots and lots of watts

If you want hi fi then PJB good If you want down and dirty PJB not so good Friend uses one with I think it is a 4b extension cab seems ok for small gigs but the sound is to clinical for my ears given that I use a $$ Warwick into an Eden wt500 Bridged into a barefaced compact clinical was never something I was looking for.

Awsome mate really nice if your ever playing down south I would definately like to see you play
