Rehearsal finished. Very pleased with it.

Rehearsal starts in an hour! Could be fun!

Right chaps.... Anyone know of a good bag that will fit it properly?

Hefty!

I'm not fussed about sub £500 instrument reviews. I don't want my mundane life reflected in a magazine. I want porn. I want really nice kit to drool over. I don't buy car mags with VW Polos in them either. I buy ones with cars I want but could never afford.

I used to sub, then stopped. I still buy it if I happen to find a rare newsagent with a copy. If there are new owners I might give it another try. I do like a printed mag, and unlike my iPad it doesn't matter too much if I drop it in the bath!

Some fuzzes can cause problems in the loop. There was a thread on thefretboard by some amp builders as to why. Something about causing output transformer modulation and instability. I'll see if I can find it.

Depends on the bass, the strings and the tone. Flats and a deep warm tone and I'm away with the fairies in Motown!

The VMT with the gain low is lovely. It has a warmth to it while staying clean.

It sounds immense. I might want bigger cabs. I don't need them, but you know...

I have to do it. I can't help it. The sound. It has... heft.

I do everything with my pair of One10s. I love them. Plenty loud enough for me.

I've had another 15 mins playing rather than having any lunch. It sounds huge. I've cut the mids a bit and then used the VMT for a bit of grit. Wonderful sound!

It was my gain knob. Doug is sending me a replacement.

Mine is here I've had a 5 minute blast. First impressions are very good. It's loud and clear. The drive section is excellent - I might even prefer it to my pedal versions. There is some fan noise but it is quieter than my PC (admittedly a gaming PC with fecking huge fans and water cooling etc). The only tiny negative is that one of the knobs is a tiny bit damaged - like it's been pushed onto the shaft a bit hard. I've sent Doug a message so hopefully I get get a new knob (oo-er).

Just got my email too. Delivery tomorrow!

I'm playing a lot of Stevie Wonder / Sinatra / Big Band at the moment and I'm using a pair of Barefaced One10 cabs. 1 for rehearsal and 2 for the show (sorry!) The One10 seems to have a more old fashioned tone than some of the neo designs that push the mids a bit too much for me. I sold a pair of Bergantino CN112 cabs to get the One10s and I'm very happy I did.

If you have the serial number of the amp that might help. Your insurers will want that too.

Oooo "Preparing for dispatch" Woohoo!

Are they shipping straight away?

Hello Bez! Finally joined the dark side then?

I either still own or have owned the B3K, VMTD, B7K, Supersymmetry, Duality. No faults / issues with any of them. So far very reliable.

That would be awesome. I have a rehearsal on Sat morning. If it arrives in time I'll use it. I have Sinatra, Eagles, Oasis, and some as yet unknown jazz to play. VMT or B3K setting? Mmmmmm

Andertons are still showing shop arrival for Friday. If they manage to ship then I should get mine on Monday / Tuesday.

Digitech BSW. It does a very good Deeper Underground keys tone.
