Barefaced Cab Handle Problems

Christ on a bike - is this saga ever going to end!!!!!!

Apparently BF had 6 cabs ready for collection by FedEx yesterday, but no-one turned up for them. They have been collected today, so if you're one of the other 5 waiting for them, they should be delivered tomorrow

Would have been nice if BF had let us know, rather than me chasing FedEx today, thinking my cab had been lost in transit :(

I must have done something very bad in a previous life!!!!

Me too buddy :(
Looking at the tracking (which was a pain in the arse to get working!) mines looks like it hasn't been scanned out of Brighton yet.
Soooo assuming Monday... When I'm back at work... Great :(

Is final payment over a month in advance acceptable in any transaction?

I paid for my Marshall fridge in full then waited 9 (yes NINE) months and 4 days for delivery....the supplier was constantly telling me it wou;d be delivered 'next month'...

Never again

You should get an update from when it leaves BF, surely?!

If they had admin staff, probably would.

Anybody seen this, btw? From their FB page showing some of the bracing design (S12?)

I/we got one from BF and FedEx on Wed saying the cab would be delivered yesterday. Nothing turned up, and the FedEx site said - Not delivered to depot. I rang the depot and they had no trace of it, so I mailed BF who told me that the shipment hadn't been collected from them.

According to FedEx today, my cab is in east Cornwall and should be with me later today.

Unless the van crashes.

And it gets burnt to a crisp

And the ashes are blown back into Devon

And Alex vows never to sell me another cab ever again :lol:

IT'S HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And it looks amazing - silver grille is the way forward

Got a band practice tonight, so it'll get it's first workout with my Orange Terror Bass head.

Have to spend the rest of the day at work not thinking about it :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

When do you think I should order some new handles?

Hope it's everything you expect it to be. Mine was, and more to be honest. :)

Not S12, i would say probably a Vintage. The S12 doesn't have so many brackets inside (yes, i had a peak inside mine but only for replacing the membrane of my tweeter)

He wants to have a play on my Ricky. Maybe I'll take the whole lot down to the Driftwood Spars in St Agnes, for their Open Mic on Sunday afternoon

I'd be surprised they'd post a Vintage as they don't make it anymore. Maybe they are 15" holes (or later S12s have a different bracing design), I think they're showing off the cnc cut wood.
