    This is clarifying something that's troubled me over many years. Once again i find @agedhorse coming forward with valuable insights into this complex issue and simplifying as much as possible for non-techs. Its nice to know how designers think about this subject. This might explain why Mesa amps are solid bits of kit 👍 Cheers @agedhorse Dave

    Now there's an idea.

    I guess if it wasn't for @Merton making the suggestion in first place then maybe Stoneham wouldn't have picked this one up at all. If the designer picks up on a suggestion he thinks is worthwhile i'm sure he'll install it in the new amp. I like the idea of a company making the amp that bassists are asking for altho it does become a wish list more than anything else. I guess we like to dream a little. Dave

    Agree 100% Dave

    Tuner out would be nice to have. With daisy chained cabs my understanding is that if one cab fails it wont affect the other cab as they are basically in parallel at the back of the speakon on the cab which i believe is the same with the twin amp speakons. Only issue is that if the cable from the amp fails then you lose both cabs. Dave

    Proper basses you mean Dave

    Not been to a Bass Bash for quite a few years now. Used to go to the Moffat Bass Bash organised by Alan at ACG and Chris from Overwater but not sure if that is still going. A NE bash wouldn't be too far away from me depending on what you class as NE of course. Dave

    Sounds interesting. Now i can relax Dave

    You cant leave us hanging ......... what you ordered ? Dave

    I've not heard of this Fender Tone Stack thing. What exactly is it. ? Dave
  11. dmccombe7
    Gain and Master volume for me. Everything else comes from my fingers Dave

    I just want a simple all valve amp with minimal controls. It has to be loud enough to compete against guitar amps in rock bands and has to maintain a clean tone to do it. If i want to add a bit of grunt then that's my choice thru the Gain. Dave

    Definately 100% on this as saves having to use a tech and keeps cost down. Dave
  14. dmccombe7
    The Marshall amps in the rehearsal studios can go up to 21. Cant remember the model of amp but it is a full valve amp, now that is loud. Dave

    I'm learning a lot on this thread so far and obviously @Reggaebass has explained it best Dave

    I'm curious how bass amp wattage is calculated. For years i've never understood how all-valve amp wattage is far lower than SS or even Class D. 100W valve appears to be as loud as a 600W Class D. Anyone offer anything ? Dave
  17. dmccombe7
    Yep i think i'm gonna hang in there for the HB. It cant be far away now. Of course i said that about the Mesa TT800 i ordered and that didn't end well for me. 😂 Dave

    Been looking at the YBA300 on BC but its 24" wide and my cabs are 19-20" so the overhang would be unsafe and look a bit daft to be honest. Where did you get your YBA200 ? I've had no response from Traynor at all. Dave Not really looking for overdriven sound but sometimes a little grunt to take the edge off is nice. Dave
  19. dmccombe7
    Sent Traynor an email to see if they supply anywhere in UK but after a week i've had no reply. The YBA 100 and 200 look nice. Some really nice features on them. Dave
  20. dmccombe7
    What's the amp you're using. Can make out the Ampeg and GK cabs but not the amp. Dave
  21. dmccombe7
    100% agree. Its great to see a UK manufacturer taking this on. Bass amps that bass players actually want rather than what the companies think they want. Huge respect to @Stoneham for doing it and joining in the discussion to keep us informed. If only all bass amp companies could be like this. Dave 👍

    Jings that's a bargain. 2off Mesa SW112 cabs for £900. These should go really fast at that price and in perfect condition looking at the pics. Love my 210/115 Mesa cabs or i would have snapped these up. Dave
  23. dmccombe7
    100% a bit of an amp legend. It has so many features. If i wasn't waiting on my new amp i might have gone for this. Dave
  24. dmccombe7
    Might be worth showing a pic of the inside and the transformer as it could help someone decide. The external transformer you are using looks a bit on the hefty side. I had a smaller one for the Ampeg SVT i eventually got converted. Dave

    Ha Ha Ha Owen my comment was in response to yours earlier in the thread but just realised it was dated 2021. Dave
