  1. Now I was going to say Cort as 1 first but then you said the Ray was in series, that makes me think 2 is the Cort doing a very good Stingray impression and 1 is the ray in series, very cutting but lost a bit of the fatness that a parallel Ray would have had? I could happily gig either.
  2. Contrary to what I said in the driving thread I'd be happy to help out a band member in need. A drummer with a massive kit that can't drive because they enjoy drinking too much is different to one whose car is out of action.
  3. Correct dc provided by the batteries in the continuity tester, it does not give a reading of impedance. If the sticker on the back of a cab is missing or you have a selection of cabs you want to use like the OP you can take a continuity test across the proposed load to find the resistance, you'll need a lab to find it's impedance.
  4. If I test a speaker using a continuity tester I get a result of "resistance measured in ohms". It's a continuity test performed with DC voltage from a test instrument. Continuity is measured as resistance not impedance. Testing the terminals of a cab is not Testing impedance, that requires much more technical kit. So you either know the impedance as its given on the cab, or you have a lab to check or you know the 'resistance' measured in ohms, "the ohmage". You can then take "a guess at the impedance based on the resistance".
  5. So when you say "you can drive but don't" unless a gig comes up in that other country actually you can't drive, lol.

  7. I'm not really into wooden looking basses but I do like Wals.
  8. I'd be unlikely to even invite a non driving band member for an audition, but I'm not in a city and not are our gigs generally (ok Lichfield is technically a city, just).
  9. The only good thing is that a new set should sound just as dead and lifeless as a 16 year old set within two gigs
  10. Is it a parking eye or some such nonsense? Pop it in the bin if it is.
  11. It's not very often you see one pointing upwards
  12. My pre EB was around 8.5lbs , I did have another one that was around 12!
  13. Ed Friedland used GB amps to demo every type of bass playing every style of music. I've used mine in covers bands playing double bass 50s Rock n roll through to the latest chart pop music with every genre and era inbetween.
  14. I can't tell much difference tone wise between my 6.0 and Shuttlemax 9.2 on it's valve channel.
  15. If you have 'parallel' inputs on your cabs then you can daisy chain them providing they are the correct ohmage?
  16. I like Fender but I can't see anything new.
  17. It is indeed https://www.scales-chords.com/findnotes_en.php?n1=E&n2=&n3=&n4=A&n5=D&n6=G You can see how a single chord even with three notes doesn't define the chord as clearly as some people here would have you believe, just that one example of eadg throws up multiple possibilities, of course if it was written down then you'd have the key signature and also no need to define anything because the notation would tell you the key and which notes to play, even a two note chord.
  18. It doesn't really matter imo, if you were following notation it tells you exactly what notes to play so there's no need to define it as BigRedX has hinted at, if it's just a chord chart I see no harm in playing anywhere between nothing at all to all the available notes in the given chord.
