    Finally time to let go of my amazing Bergantino HT322. Its not been used much by me over the years i've had it but its a glorious cab. 1x12, 2x10's with adjustable horn. Has jacks and Speakon connectors. If you know anything about Bergantino you'll know how well built these cabs are. This cab is ideal for any style of music from Reggae to Rock this cab will do whatever is asked of it. Deep yet retaining its clarity. Fitted with 4 HD castors as this is quite a heavy cab at 43Kg. Comes with a custom made fleece lined cover in black with green edging. Cab is in great condition with no damage, marks or scratches. A few minor scuffs on the corners but hardly noticeable to be honest. Been kept in my bass cave in a non-smoking house. Bergantino HT322 Specs: • 2-10" cast frame woofers w/ 56oz. magnets, vented pole pieces and 2.5" voice coils • 1-12" cast frame woofer w/ 80oz. magnet, vented pole piece and 3" voice coil • high intelligibility tweeter with cast horn • power handling - 800 watts rms • custom phase - coherent crossover with tweeter level control • frequency response: 36hz - 18khz • sensitivity: 102db • anechoic: 2.83v/1m • impedance: 4 ohms • dimensions: 25-1/2"H x 22-3/4"W x 18"D • casters • weight: 95lbs / 43kg CASH ON COLLECTION ONLY Dave

    Yep kinda thought it wasn't allowed but i did find the old advert from circa 8-10 yrs ago. Any chance you could just delete this thread @ped Appreciate reasoning behind why its not allowed. I hadnt really thought of that. thanks again Dave

    I'm thinking of selling a bass cab. Can i ask BC'ers advice what an approx price might be. ? I've had it approx 8-10 yrs bought from a fellow BC'er but can't even remember what i paid for it. Wasn't sure if it was allowed or not...........so many rules Dave

    I've never been a huge fan of the Beatles or Paul's solo projects. I have the best of Paul McCartney and Wings and recently listened to Sgt Peppers for the first time. (i'm 61) Altho i really enjoyed a lot of the hits as just great songs i had never really listened to the bass part. Its not technically fast or difficult but he knows exactly what to play at the right time. His bass fits into the songs so well. Altho still not a huge fan of the Beatles i did find a new respect for Paul McCartney's bass playing. Some of Wings hits were brilliant like Jet and Band On the Run to name a few. My first single was All My Loving when i was 4 yrs old for my birthday plus i had a plastic Beatles wig and guitar as a 4 yr old. Maybe the Beatles were a bigger influence than i thought. Dave

    I know our resident expert @Cuzzie will be along shortly and answer all things Sandberg but from what i know they do Delanos which have that name on them and then Sandbergs own with the 4 dots on them. They also do Black Labels and a couple of others but i'd need to go back thru this thread for names and details and its vino time so my focus is fading. Seems quite a few people aren't keen on the Delanos but i have no exxperience myself of anything other than Sandbergs version with the 4 dots. Dave

    My VM has Sandberg's own pick ups and they are pretty good IMO

    With you reading music a lot more than i do i was just curious if anyone could actually play that first time solely thru sight reading. Dave
  10. dmccombe7
    Oooohhhh that's tasty Rob. If someone handed you that sheet music could you sight read it and play it right away or would you need to work on it a little. Its quite a fast wee riff going on there. Dave

    I have Waterloo to learn for our return to rehearsals in May. Dave

    WOW that's so chilled. I can feel myself drift off. Good luck with the bassline. Dave

    After thinking about this for the past few years and talking with Agedhorse from Mesa on TB along with advice from so many helpful people with differing opinions but all positive when doing research i decided to go for it this morning. Went for the TT800 amp, 210 & 115 cabs. Managed to get the 115 cab from Guitar Guitar as they had it in stock altho £80 more expensive and they wouldn't budge on price. 210 cab and TT800 from Andertons. Cab is in stock but amp on 3mth pre-order. All in all i'll have the cabs next week and amp end June. Gives me time to use the Mpulse thru the cabs at rehearsals in May tho. What i found about the cab set ups was that the 215 cab is a bit more focused than the 210 & 115 set up has a wider spectrum of frequencies. Think that means the mids and treble should be a bit sharper. At some point i might get another 115 cab to get the best of both worlds. Many thanks to everyone that helped me eventually decide. Dave

    Found a couple of really good reviews on TT800 and one on the 210 & 115 cabs. Uriah Duffy doing the cab one and they do sound good. Spoken with guys on Talkbass and they love the new Mesa Subway amps. One guy has exact same rig i'm thinking off and using it in a rock band with a punk influence but also doing a few reggae and dub songs and he says the rig does it with ease. His EQ settings are almost flat but maybe using the bass boost switch. I've convinced myself that the TT800 210 & 115 cabs is the way to go for me. I find the PH212 cab is great but lacks a little definition for me and i'm hoping the 210 fills that gap. Dave
  15. dmccombe7
    Oh that's not so good. Someone else told me similar and not to sell my Mpulse in case i didnt like the TT800 which is different. Maybe i need to have a rethink. Dave

    Just sold my old Porsche and about to put my order in to Andertons for a TT800 amp, 210 & 115 cabs. Amp and 115 cabs are on a 3mth delay (end of June) but that's ok. Not gigging till Oct. Listened to loads of youtube clips on all of the kit and also the 215 cab but i've settled on the 210 / 115 combination which historically was always my favoured option when i bought custom cabs. Just a wee thanks to you and a few others on BC that bought Mesa gear and always give great advice. I was caught between the TT800 & WD800 amps to be honest but i like the idea of being able to switch between the 2 channels for different sounds. Dave 👍

    That's nice but not sure i want an album of orchestral backing. I prefer to hear her with a band. Dave

    VID unavailable ? where's it gone I've only recently listened to Joni Mitchell with the Wild Things Run Fast album. Not Jaco on bass but its an amazing album. I can see me buying more of her albums. Altho i respect and appreciate Jaco i wouldn't buy an album just because he's on it. The album needs to stand on its own merit and not because it has famous musicians. Dave

    That was nice. Quite like the tone from those Xotic basses.

    I'd never really noticed that before but agree no point with this one. Dave

    Yep original with Gabriel was bass pedals up to Willow Farm at circa 10mins when Rutherford takes on the bass. In fact Hackett, Rutherford and Banks were all playing acoustics for a lot of the 10mins. Yep you are spot on there Rob. 1982 version was bass pedals at start as well with left hand low piano added possibly for definition. Dave

    I actually have the Seconds Out music book fully autographed by Genesis at that time witha few wives as well. Its been a while since listening to it but from memory back in 80's there was a bass played thru the song but maybe it was doubled up on keys. There are def bass pedals in there but i'm pretty sure Rutherford doubled up with the bass too. Wonder if the original version might be better to distinguish bass part. I'll have a wee listen just now. If its bass pedals and keys its pointless doing it i would think. Dave

    How's about Genesis Suppers Ready ? Dave
  24. dmccombe7
    Bought my wife a pair of those for her tablet and i was more than impressed with them. Dave

    There's still a few basses i'd like to have but its not the end of the world for me but more a "nice to have". I do however have severe gas for Mesa TT800 + Subway 210 & 115 bass rig and that's my main Gas at moment. Plan is underway to fund it. Dave
