It may be the official launch of new 10” drivers discussed elsewhere on here. Hoping it’s an amp though 😄

I need to get this downloaded asap!

I avoid singing in the quieter songs as much as I can, because it isn’t that far off those audience vocals… 😆

There’s some lovely audience singing on this one… Bear in mind the previous two videos were from larger festival stages… in the smaller environments like Pizza Express he’s a lot more sympathetic

Yeah he is quite a hard hitter. I’ll find a video where he shows he can play softly

Alas I can’t ask him if he likes the Katy stuff 😔

Thanks ☺️ He has a plethora of gorgeous guitars and depending on his mood and the song they all appear. He’s an incredible player and has a great feel and tone. And the songs he writes with Katy are pretty cool too 😀

Fair enough. I’ve been playing in bands with him for 20 years so know his style well, perhaps I’m less aware of it these days and just compensate by being lazy and crap 😀

Why not?

Cool. I play for an alt-country singer then 🤓

What is alt country anyway? 😄

Alt Country… contemporary country… not sure how Katy Hurt would describe herself but I am privileged to play in her band. Here’s a couple of GoPro clips from summer festival gigs:

Apart from my playing it sounded incredible, a really lovely pairing. If I were in the market for new cabs I’d be seriously working out how to get one of these LFSys 12” cabs. @stevie and I did an A/B with my Two10s but of course it’s not comparing apples and apples, as the Two10 is designed to have high end roll off, a bit more distortion from the cone (I.e. it’s not trying to be ultra clean and accurate…) and the LFSys is of course designed to be accurate. I love my Two10s but the clarity and power that the LFSys was able to generate was incredible. I could see how it would work brilliantly in the mix onstage. It’s a really very very good cab.

I missed a trick actually - earlier in the day @stevie was using the Trace to show off his cabs. The pairing sounded incredible 😊 But ultimately, each to their own etc etc 😎

Great day! Guy and Laurence both excellent, as were the Basschat team behind the day. And lovely to see old friends and new faces. @stevie’s LFSys cabs are superb, especially the 12” version.

Get well soon @silverfoxnik

The list this morning: Cup o’tea Bite to eat Load car Hit the road See y’all soon!

My sound is my fingers, bass and the preamp settings I choose. The amps and cabs I choose are there to enhance those other facets to my tone; I probably sound the same through the majority of amps etc but feel the Trace/BF rig allows me to focus on the playing more

Add yourself back on!

Anyone got a Retrovibe P30 that they could bring along? Got a real hankering for some form of 30” P type thingy… 🤦🏼‍♂️

Don’t be so sensible 🤪

I wonder if it’s a landscape One10T, a bit like the Super3rd is designed to sit on top of the Super Twin, this will be to sit atop a vertical Two10 perhaps…

Aww crap, a Three10? Noooo!
