Just a quick update on this. On Wednesday evening, in usual BC fashion, I met up with Stealth of this parish in a service area adjacent to the A303 and took delivery of an Ampeg PF500 and cab. I've just tried the PF500 out with the pair of One10s and my problem seems to have been solved. Loud, deep and punchy so maybe I just don't like the sound of Markbass amps. I shall try this new arrangement at rehearsal on Monday. I found that it all sounded much better with the cabs on top of a plastic bin about 24" off the ground so now I'm off to look for a suitable stand. Any suggestions?

Dave, I decided to try and create a small rig for both rehearsals and gigs as we don't do many a year. I was going to use my existing LMII. I got my first BF One10 back in November and used it at a rehearsal and was very surprised how loud it was. The rest of the band thought it was completely bonkers however having been used to 12-inch speakers I wasn't over enamoured with the tone. Having read comments from other users that two were better than one I decided to get another and I used them both at our next rehearsal last Monday. Certainly more than loud enough but I find the tone is not what I'm looking for. I'm a bit old school really. Maybe I should contact Alex and see if he could do a deal for one of his 12-inch cabs as these are effectively brand new. They just sat indoors in their covers unused from the end of November until last Monday. BTW these were my first experience of BF and I have no quibble about the build quality.

Effectively brand new (used twice at rehearsal) Barefaced One10 and Barefaced cover. Black Metal Grille version. Original shipping box and all paperwork. I have 2 of these for sale. Consider trades involving Bergantino CN112, Vanderkley EXT112, Vanderkley 210MNT, Ampeg PF-112, Barefaced SuperMidget, Barefaced SuperCompact

Where in Cornwall are you?

Musicman Stingray 5 with Status neck and side LEDs. - £1200 This was my everyday go to bass however as I no longer gig seriously, and therefore have no need of a 5-string. I have reluctantly decided that it must go as it just sits at home in its case and rarely gets played. The core instrument is a 2003 Pacific Blue Burst Stingray 5, serial number E36***, which was fitted with a Carbon Fibre neck by Rob Green at Status in early 2005. The neck has subtle blue side LEDs and a separate battery box is fitted to power them. Pick-up is a Nordstrand 3-coil with 3-way switching. The original MM pick-up is also included. Pre-amp is the regular Stingray 5. Schaller Strap-locks. Complete with a Hiscox case. Weight is 10lb 4oz. Collection or meet preferred. Do not want to ship. Would consider trades for 4-string basses e.g. Fender P or PJ with Jazz neck, Spector NS Doug Wimbush or NS with DW neck, original USA Musicman Sterling but no Jazzes.

Great colour. Same as mine with a Status neck. GLWTS.
