  1. They're not a big company and as has been said they are at Bass Player Live in LA. Give it til Tuesday then phone them
  2. Bit late but this is what we did on Saturday.... [URL="http://m.youtube.com/watch?list=UUNJQfoZhBdftqhpIHYpbdvQ&v=25m1n-MXUqs&feature=youtu.be"]http://m.youtube.com/watch?list=UUNJQfoZhBdftqhpIHYpbdvQ&v=25m1n-MXUqs&feature=youtu.be[/URL] We were the house band for the rocky Horror bits then did a set at the end. Bit weird as half the band was one side of the stage and the other half about three miles away on the other, that that's the way they wanted it for the Rocky Horror bit for obvious reasons.
  3. Great cab, great price, great guy to deal with!
  4. Have you seen how long a meercat's arms are?
  5. Gorgeous bass, and a cracking price! If it was a 33" scale I'd be in a lot of trouble. GLWTS
  6. Paul took a bass hard case off my hands, he arranged UPS collection and was superb throughout. He even arranged a little donation to the BHF instead of paying me anything for the case. Top notch!
  7. PM'd - my band will take it. We're in Brighton on Sat so hopefully can arrange collection
  8. Stunning bass, GLWTS
  9. Anything more than £100 is too much. Generally I'd expect £60-£80
  10. Good man thanks! PS someone should buy this amp, it's the dogs dangly bits
  11. Sorry for the thread hijack, can you link me to a place to buy these TAD valves, sounds like some experimentation is in order!
  12. Great amp, great price Out of interest what effect did the change in output valves have?
  13. 10 years ago Newton Faulkner used to open for my covers band at the local pubs. We bumped into each other this year at a little festival and he had the good grace to pretend he remembered me ;-)
  14. Gone
  15. Best solid state head ever IMO
  16. If you ever want to sell that Electro.......
  17. John was fantastic helping me sort a slightly odd preamp request for my (currently-in-the-making) ACG. As has been said above he answers incredibly promptly and often outside of working hours. Brilliant
  18. Hello! Glad you're still enjoying the cab
  19. Cracking amp and an insanely good price
  20. [quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1413577512' post='2579883'] But the G3 handles are still shinkillers! [/quote] Ah yes I have missed the point again haven't I
  21. [quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1413213058' post='2575881'] I imagine Alex takes a lot of it on board as viable feedback - he'll want to remove any barrier to someone buying one of his cabs. [/quote] Surely with the Gen 3 cabs, with new handles, he has done precisely that?
  22. Great amp, great guy to do business with, and it really is essentially new as I owned it for about two weeks before Tony buying it
  23. [quote name='M@23' timestamp='1412769030' post='2571773'] I don't want to fan any flames here, but I have to ask, why are people so accepting of this? [/quote] I accept it because any product which uses these handles could suffer the same fate (but not the same vitriol on here). EDIT: I should say I ACCEPTED it, because I no longer own a BF can with these handles. I have Gen 3 cabs now and the new handles are better
  24. [quote name='eude' timestamp='1412584422' post='2570042'] I completely agree, I would describe the sound from my Mi10 cabs as [b]far from muffled[/b]. They sound big and open, almost hifi. One thing that a lot of folks forget is that with all cabs, what you put in massively effects what you get out and some amps speak better through some cabs. My guess would be, that seeing you're already using Ashdown gear anyway, you'd probably get what you're looking for from most Ashdown gear. Eude [/quote] Spot on
  25. [quote name='Sonic_Groove' timestamp='1412532115' post='2569677'] The Eden 1 x 10 is very similar & looks very similar. I wouldn't be surprised if they weren't made in the same factory?!! [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/eden_ex_110_8_ohms.htm?sid=54fe8d57c0d373f580e7c212daa2fb5f"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/eden_ex_110_8_ohms.htm?sid=54fe8d57c0d373f580e7c212daa2fb5f[/url] B [/quote] I suspect same factory with different finish (Ashdown vinyl vs Eden carpet) and different badge, yes As for the mixed reviews, bear in mind the Mi10 is £159 new, it will never compete sonically with higher-priced, better engineered cabs which aren't built to a price point. Whether that compromise is something you can deal with is unfortunately difficult to judge without using one yourself!
