That has happened before, but it also happens when I'm at home just plugged into my amp. I re-wired my board so every pedal has isolated power and no noise so far 🤞

I have not tried it with a separate supply. I will try it, but its very unpredictable when it happens. I have also noticed I've wired some of the the pedals from the distributer (not isolated), so I'll rewire them to an isolater and see if that stops the sound. Cheers!

I thought it was a power thing. I'm using the Gigrig power setup. The tuner is connected to a high power adapter (needs 300mA), which is connected to the Distributer. This is how Gigrig recommends you wire it up.

I have a Walrus Audio Canvas tuner on my board. Works perfectly well 90% of the time, except every now and again when I engage it to tune then disengage it, there is a high pitched tone when it unmutes. The noise goes away if I stamp/kick it (not the foot switch, literally stamp on the enclosure). Anyone with a background in electronics know what's going on? L

I used a Mesa D800, so 400W at 8 ohms, so 2/300 at 12 ohms?

If I was to get a One10W I'd want to be able to use it on its own, for those small gigs. I used to have a One10 and it was surprisingly loud for its size, but it wouldn't be much use to me if it was only useable with the Three10.

How would that work when using the One10W on its own with an amp rated at 4/8 ohms? Would it just reduce the output?

My pedal arrived Monday and had a few days to play around with it. First and foremost, my cats hate it. They slink away as soon as they hear it. HOWEVER, I love it. I honestly thought it would be just another fuzz with a lot of hype around and I was mostly getting it to complete my 3 Leaf Audio collection. But it turns out it's an amazing circuit. It's really responsive to dynamics, I particularly like tuning the Gain knob down and getting a tube-ish overdrive. It also goes hard, with it getting octave fuzz-like above the 12th fret. And synth tones to die for. Only thing I'm not getting my head round are the X-over and Your/You're switches. I don't hear much difference with the former, and the latter just seems to give a scooped sound. What they do isn't clearly explained in the instruction sheet. That said, the pedal sounds great. PS the lettering glows in the dark.

I have no idea about the engineering behind it but it's on their website and they posted a completed one in use on their Instagram page. I'm sure if you email Alex he will explain the science behind it.

sonofab***h 😅 mine dispatched yesterday and I'm also in Scotland, so hopefully arrives as quickly and as easily!

Alex has gone and announced they do an extra wide One10 to sit atop the Three10. Guy knows how to sell 😂

Anyone got any experience with a Wilcock 4P-51?

In my humble opinion, there's no such thing as an 'Amp for Metal' or an 'Amp for Funk'. It's a lot about how you play the instrument and a little bit about how you set up the amp (if at all, I personally set the EQ flat, or a dip at 300Hz). Getting one you like the sound of is more important. I would try to play as many amps as you can, and/or watch reviews/demos.

A Super Compact or possibly Super Twin will cover a lot of ground and be louder than your Ashdown. Their 12XN speaker is designed not to colour your sound, making it a blank slate (of sorts) to cover the variety of tones you'll need in that type of band. I used a Super Compact for about 10 years and its a great do it all cab, and very easy to move around. Note you'll need to get an amp too, which will have an impact on your tone.

SIMILAR. Its... similar 🤔 I dunno man, sometimes the sander just gets away from you

Must've been the kid in on work experience

After a month of owning the Three10, here is my review. Construction Predictably solid. It's only been gigged twice, but I gigged the hell out of a Super Compact for 10 years, so I expect this to be the same. The wheels on the bottom make moving it dead easy, and the handles on the top and sides make it easy to manoeuvre when the wheels won't do. I'm still in two minds whether to get a cover for it. Sound I had a One10 until very recently and enjoyed that tone, so I knew roughly what I was going to get. The sound is very deep and warm without getting muddy. I use flats on pretty much all my basses, so I'm not chasing a super bright and detailed tone, but I get excellent definition and clarity from the cab. I did ask for it to have a tweeter, in case I missed the top end. However, I'm finding I usually have it all the way off, or maybe at 50%. In terms of volume it has fair solved the issues I was having before of not being able to hear myself on gigs, being both taller and having more speaker area. Conclusion It's a great sounding cab and it's easy to transport (fits in the back of my Fiesta with room for everything else), which is about all I ask of a cab. It is perhaps a little more expensive than other brands, but it is a small company, and frankly I can't think of anything that is a direct comparison in terms of features and performance.

Real fast and loose with that phrase "forever and ever".

24 hrs? think Spencers moment has ended 🤪

I has fully checked out of 3 Leaf as the scalping and futile attempts at buying anything had really put me off (I have 4/5 of his pedals from the last 10 years anyway). I only remembered about it at about 6pm but thought I'd check it out anyway. I just kept clicking on buttons and suddenly I had one in my basket and was filling out my address. Fully expected to get an "Out of Stock" notification, but it all went through. Maybe he's finally cracked it.

If your question is, why do I use a 50W amp when the cab can handle 750W dirty and around 1000W clean, the answer is I use the Ampeg at home because it sounds nice and I wouldn't get to use it otherwise. I used it live with my previous Super Compact a couple of times and it had to be driven pretty hard just to be audible. For the last 6/7 years I've used a Mesa D800 live, which puts out 800W. However, as discussed above, I may try the Ampeg live with the Three10 at some point, but I'm not expecting much. As you say, it is only 50W, and even 50 TUBE watts don't go that far. The question niggling at me now is, why use such a small amp with such a big cab... I need a bigger 800W amp!
