Anyone have a GK MB2-500 or MB Fusion they can bring along for me to try out?

Just spoken to Phil Mulford, he is hopeful he can make it for a few hours in the morning, hopefully with some of his Overwater basses in tow. Might get him to bring his new rig too, though I can't say what it is just yet

I'm half tempted to buy it to compare with the one Mikey is building me. I certainly know I prefer the look of Mikey's design

I spoke to Polar Audio (GK disti over here) about availability last week, they said to contact them direct and they'd order the amp from GK, it'd take 6-8 weeks to arrive... Needless to say you won't get any decent shop deal from them but it may be the only way at the mo

Which is why I tend to use, IMO, IMV etc etc..[/quote] Fair point I tend to forget to put this on the end of everyhting I say [size=1][color="#C0C0C0"]But that's coz I'm always right[/color][/size] (edited for removal of awful spelling)

[quote name='Conan' post='971382' date='Sep 29 2010, 08:24 AM']And yes, at the end of the day it's down to your ears.[/quote] No it's not! [quote name='Conan' post='971382' date='Sep 29 2010, 08:24 AM']Nobody sane would disagree with that[/quote] Oh bugger. [quote name='Conan' post='971382' date='Sep 29 2010, 08:24 AM']however, it does get a bit wearing when people start trying to TELL you what sounds "best" and that you can't get this sound from that cab/speaker. etc, especially when you KNOW it to be inaccurate![/quote] Yip.

[quote name='JTUK' post='970704' date='Sep 28 2010, 02:23 PM']Ok.... but still a low end thunk and slow moving sound.[/quote] WTF is a slow moving sound?

[quote name='JTUK' post='970607' date='Sep 28 2010, 01:08 PM']What you are likely to get in abundance is a heavy and slow[/quote] You haven't heard the Vintage, clearly Slow? What a load of old bollocks.

Joe is a star. He went out of his way for me to pick up, and pack up, a Status Groove bass which was FS on Leeds Gumtree. Didn't ask for anything (exscept a pint! I think I can stretch to a few after this ) and communicated brilliantly. Can't ask for anything more really, amazing

Sold CK a Peavey DPC750, shipped it to NZ and it was a real pleasure, a dead easy transaction Hope you enjoy Steve!

[quote name='JTUK' post='970328' date='Sep 28 2010, 08:17 AM']Must be looking for a certain sound to think of 2x15's....[/quote] Not really. You can get pretty much anything you want from my Vintage. I want rock tho

[quote name='Conan' post='970569' date='Sep 28 2010, 12:37 PM']I can't find reference to a "Big Twin" on his website.... is this a new model? Super 12 - yes, Big Baby - Yes, Big One - Yes.... [/quote] Big Twin is a 2x12" plus 1x6.5" monster that will destroy everything in its path. Not yet fully in production I don't think. EDIT: from the man himself [quote]the Big Twin. Essentially a 2x12" version of the Big One it plays a bit louder (~3dB), goes quite a bit lower (-3dB point shifts down by ~7Hz), and offers a 4 ohm nominal load to get the most out of typical bass amps, which combined with the greater speaker area and enclosure size makes it usefully easier to drive. Big cab, BIG sound, big price (unfortunately!) Pretty righteous though...[/quote]

Can we add MikeyR to the list as well? He'll be bringing my multiscale if it's finished, and prob his Shuker P and maybe the multiscale proto if he can carry it all
