All entirely normal. Part of the speaker protection system. I'm a big fan of the brand and over the years I've had LM2, LM3, F1, a couple of combos, the Goldline Marcus head, and now the AG1000. They all do it, by design.

My favourite for a transparent, doesn't affect the normal tone at all is the Boss BC-1X. It's so good I sold my Cali76 / Darkglass / Empress etc etc It just works in every setting, and doesn't do any annoying volume dip and swell that some compressors do with high output pickups. For a dirty compressor that is really a tone changing machine my favourite is the Fairfield The Accountant.

Dremel it.

I think he’s using them to check intonation. Very clever idea.

Drugs certainly make it easier to listen to the songs I've written.

Lovely!

In America they can’t afford the medical procedure so they just carry on until they drop.

When you are dead.

I've been thinking about changing the EMGs in my Sandberg, just because of wanting-a-change reasons and I'll have to have a look at some Barts now.

Considering how Chester died I'm surprised the band picked a Scientologist just because of their stance on mental health and treatment. Strikes me as odd.

The only Barts I've had have been the cheap ones in an Ibanez. They are so bad I think they've probably damaged the brand a little.

I'm loving the tone he's getting with the Overwater and the EBS acoustic preamp. I've never had an EBS anything - but now I'm thinking about it! Damn this GAS!

This is ace. Full run through of his di rig for bass guitars, DB, and synth, all with playing examples. Few anecdotes about when things have gone wrong too.

The Horrorpops!

I wish the larger GR stuff - like the vertical 2x12 etc - had tilt back wheels. I know they are really light, but everything feels heavy if it has to be carried for long enough.

Also - the 2-TEK bridge is a pile of arse. You got the right one. The 2-TEK's only discernible purpose is to make a bass even heavier while at the same time making it impossible to get spares and cutting a massive hole in the body meaning it's really difficult to use a different bridge when the spares run out.

ah man! I am jealous! I tried one of those at the old Birmingham Bass Centre in about '96. It was brilliant! I was at uni and had no money to buy it, but I looked for one for years after I graduated. Too heavy for me these days, but I'd still have one to play when sitting down in front of the TV! Congratulations indeed!

A One10 and a One10T (tweeter), both with the official covers.

I'll have a look! Thank you.

If you have Hercules wall mounts then these things for a narrow neck will grab on a headless with a wider neck end like the Ibanez has. At least for the 5 and 6 string. Probably not for the 4. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07RX9GMRB/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Doesn't work on other headless of course like Status etc.

That 3x10 looks like a great option, especially with wheels! As it happens I'm about to list my BF cabs for sale because... and I cannot believe I'm saying this and I am embarrassed to be swapping sides for a bit... I need a gigging guitar amp! 😲 I bumped into some old mates I used to play with and we're going to do a bit of a reunion thing before we get too old to do it. So I'm in kind of the same boat as the OP, but about guitar stuff. I want a raging JCM800 like I used to have, but I do not want to carry it!

Me! I went from old School Marshall VBC 4x12 bass cabs, then to Bergantino, then Markbass and then different types of Barefaced. I've had barefaced Supertwin 2x12 (very clean sounding, mid forward) and a pair One10 (more traditional sound). Both really good, but I preferred the vintage tone of the One10 set up. I thought they were closer to Markbass than the Supertwin was. That big Marshall is still my favourite bass cab ever, but it weighs 108lb!

It's the mids. The One10 have a more old fashioned scoop and the 12 inch stuff does not.

I've gigged my One10 x 2 without any trouble getting over a drummer and 20+ piece brass and reed section.
