Once I get the payment for the cab I have just sold I'm going to be buying one of these. I have the Christmas party nights coming up so I'll probably post here when I get it, after the first gig and at the beginning of next year once I have done a few and the honeymoon period is over. If Its as good as it sounds on paper then I'll be buying a second at that point, if not then offers please

well that was my plan as well. Use 1 as a monitor for the wedding band and have a second one to use with the rock band. They've been getting some good reviews on Talkbs but they ain't for the hifi mob apparently. Meant to sound really rocky and aggressive which suits me down to the ground. Thought I'd check here first before going for it.

going to bump this as I am contemplating this cab as well ply constuction and Celestion neo driver for £237

what, lunch?

I've been using two of these as a monitor in my wedding band - its big and its clever

Surprisingly, I still have the cheapo ashdown 4x10 and actually like it![/quote] All the more reason to get a second one Actually, I was amazed at how good they are.

I've got a matching Mag 410" for sale - its a perfect match and a maneuverable 8x10" rig

Wenge is very fast to play and when it gets gunky you just run some steel wool up and down it and its really smooth again I had a wenge neck on my gold Warmoth

Maybe the price includes first class air fare for the seller to personally hand deliver it to the new owner and the £30 is to cover his lunch?

I've been thinking about something like this [url="http://www.guitarcenter.com/Peavey-PV-12M-12--Floor-Monitor-104005186-i1153009.gc"]http://www.guitarcenter.com/Peavey-PV-12M-...186-i1153009.gc[/url] I only use my cab as a monitor anyway so it may or may not be a good idea to actually just buy a monitor that can handle bass. Whether this can or cannot I'm not sure but I'm still looking

The 2x12" cab is on my list of possibles so would be interesting to hear any first hand issues. I've done a lot of reading over on Talkbass and didn't hear anything bad but it seems everyone there plays in some kind of praise and worship band which I can't imagine gets very loud

The neck dive shouldn't a problem for me - Its easy enough to move the strap button like I did on my alpine white epibird which made it balance perfectly. [/quote] Ha, exactly where I put the strap button on mine. 3 things I can think of: Its not going to sound like a thunderbird but neither does a Gibson cos the pickups are different to the originals, only a set of Mike Lulls will get you close, plus its active and no T-Bird has ever been active. The strap button is already on the back, probably as far forward as you can get it so you can't do the same mod that we've both done. The neck heel is curved so there isn't a flat surface to put it. Also reading into them, a lot of users have complained about the frets being susceptible to premature wear. And one last personal thing, I think the extra tuner on the bottom looks wrong, I wish they had been able to put all 5 on the top but that would've meant an extended headstock which would've made the balance even worse. All annoying as I too had been thinking about getting one for a while.

about 30 odd between wedding band, rock band and depping with other bands. Still not enough. There have been quite a few quiet spells. Only about 20 odd last year and about 20 confirmed for next year for the wedding band. We're going to be doing a lot more promoting next year, updating the website so we don;t look like a country and western band. We've been lucky in that all gigs are either people seeing the website or being at gigs we've done. The quiet times are the dangerous times for me cos that's when I forget how good my gear sounds and start looking for something else.

I've used a Giraffe cab stand for years - in fact I used it on Friday and it easily held my 4x10" which was good cos we were set up with our backs to a large window on the first floor

Right, I bought a set of 45 flats and man am I impressed. Used them last night for the first gig and absolutely love them. I'm assuming that they are really bright to begin with but will dull down over time. The most amazing fret clack I have ever heard. I thought I was playing my old Warwick Thumb at one point the sound was so close. I'm going to do a full review at the end of year once I'm convinced they've bedded in. I must have been playing like a Trojan cos my index and middle finger fingers on my right hand are so sore
