Merton

Sold Tim a fourth little cab, and as always he was a gent to deal with and very prompt payer. Many thanks

Two speakon/jack combo sockets

Well actually Saturday was NCD: I went to the London Bass Guitar Show and was blown away by Barefaced's little One10 so snapped one up at the show discount price. Just destroyed my ears (and probably any friendly relationship with next door) having a proper blast at home. A fantastic little cab and it works brilliantly with my ABM head. The overhang will be an issue for many so I won't post a pic, you all know what the little black and silver box looks like!

I now know who you are and next time I see you you will be "Zebra bass man"

[quote name='Pete1967' timestamp='1488796162' post='3251753'] Hey guys and girls, I was the guy on the Shuker stand helping Jon out. Thanks a million to all of you that came to have a chat and have a play of the basses - although a combination of the guys on Rhinegold stand and some slightly unbalanced decisions by the noise police made trying things out a bit difficult, despite the loan of a brilliant little Barefaced cab (I now know what I'm buying next!). The turquoise bass must have been the most photographed bass in the show and even caught the attention of a certain Mr Ellefson who came over to have a look - thanks to Dood! I'm sure you'll all be delighted to know that it's found a great new home in Plymouth! Ped, Charic - where's the Basschat selfie?? [/quote] Hey Pete, it was a pleasure to meet you on a Saturday, thanks for taking the time to talk

I had a great day, saw Ped, macdaddy (though missed the Zebra Shuker, sob!), bluejay, dood, plus of course annoyed Skelf (Mr Sir Alan Cringean of AC Guitars) and Alex, Bobby and the chaps of Barefaced. And I purchased and walked away with a One10, very happy!

Just about to start the journey up. Like a numpty I forgot my basschat lanyard but I'll come and make myself known

Nik, I'll have that if you ever want to let it go!

I'll sort some photos when my second 32" is finished - both ACGs but very different flavours

Ah here she is! Nice

One of the best solid state heads I've ever used was the Eden WT550; I owned a Neo d112XLT for a while too and that was equally awesome. I rate the older gear very highly indeed and am very keen to try their TN stuff

[quote name='Fisheth' timestamp='1487177531' post='3237802'] Ashdown CTM100, it's the only amp I've ever really used that gives me the tone I want and doesn't have to struggle with the rest of my band. It's a lovely beast and Merton's thread pushed me over the edge with my uncertainty and made it certain I wanted one. I'm glad I did. [/quote] That's right, blame me haha I still rate that amp as the finest thing I've ever used, just wish I hadn't had to sell both of the ones I've owned. I will get another when I can afford it. As for my answer - Ashdown VS212 cab. Bought 2nd hand from eBay for not a lot of dosh and it is very good, even moreso given the experience I had with the VS112 which just didn't do it for me.

That's the ticket!

[quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1486042728' post='3228722'] Ooof... I don't need a 100w tube head, but... I think I need one. [/quote] Put that in a different flightcase and I'd be all over it if I had funds. Nice!

[quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1485772214' post='3226475'] OK, seeing as there are guys in this thread that reall know their stuff, dumbass question. I would love to get two of these 210's. Would that mean I'm running at 6 ohms? Current amp is Ashdown RM 800 (mannnn, that DRIVE!! getcha Lemmy on). [/quote] Correct I can vouch for the RM sounding IMMENSE through the Two10 cab btw. If I had not been in the financial position I find myself that probably would have become my main rig this year.

[quote name='JPJ' timestamp='1485477919' post='3224341'] I've been using two 10" 4 slice toasters and a 15" Hotpoint for quite a few years now and no one has complained about my tone! 😤 [/quote] Pretty sure a small double slice 12" toaster could replace all that with more heft. It'll be a crispier tone too.

[quote name='JPJ' timestamp='1485433602' post='3223918'] Ooh I so want this, but it leads me on to a related question. I know its conventional to stack the tumble dryer on top of the washing machine, but surely with the larger drum, the tumble dryer will give a better low end response if you stack them the other way around? [/quote] I hope you're not mixing drum sizes? That way madness lies.....
