I don't think I could fit 2 in my car!

Yeah - sorry I had clicked the Tweeter option, and I'd have a cover.

Show us your rig of choice for the weekend ** Basschat edition**
fretmeister replied to bassace97's topic in Amps and Cabs
I'm done for the year so... -
Almost everything other than Ibanez are wider than 16.5mm. It is Ibanez that is the outlier really.
-
But then again it's about £900 so maybe not!

I have a Super Twin but I don't have a 2 ohm capable amp. I'm still tempted to sell my One10 and maybe get one of these instead - just in case I get a new amp! Or for when I just want something smaller.

If you have a Super Twin but you’d like a 1x12XN cab for smaller gigs or a 3x12XN stack for big/outdoor gigs then the new Super 3rd is the answer. It’s basically our awesome Super Compact reshaped for stacking on a Super Twin. Also available with a tweeter (and crossover and full HF control). 600W, 8 ohms, 97dB for the Super 3rd. This full stack is 1800W, 2.7 ohm, 101.5dB (max SPL ~134dB - stand well back and wear hearing protection!) Oh and they’re really light in weight despite the heavyweight tone, remarkably compact and as beautifully finished as everything we make!"

I have 3 of these basses. 2 four strings and a five. The design of the headstock and the spacing from nut to tuner means that on the 4 string bass you can use normal long scale bass strings. The stock ones are D'addario. It's only on the 5 string that a dedicated medium scale B is needed.

Great video: Bass Channel comparison of preamp pedals
fretmeister replied to fretmeister's topic in Effects
I've got the Behringer and I did have a BDDI V1 about a decade ago, so I can't really remember it accurately. The clone sounds great even if it is not accurate. And as the V2 are now nearly £300 it will have to do! -

I wish they had included the Behringer tribute to the BDDI in as well. Would have been interesting to hear that. -

I've had about a dozen full scale basses that have neck dived! -
And vat. And a handling fee.

An excellent cab! Try it portrait and landscape - you'll be surprised how different it sounds. You'll get better horizontal dispersement with the cab being vertical / portrait. Spreads across a stage better.

boss digital pedal repair? anywhere in the UK or EU you know about?
fretmeister replied to lidl e's topic in Effects
I think you'll have to email Roland and ask for their proper service and repair centres. -
I've got a Rockboard Powerbank XL for that sort of thing. Works well and it can be used while being charged.

String price increases. Nearly double for some.

Strings Direct is really expensive. I only ever use them if I can't find the strings elsewhere. -

I may well swap over to tapewounds and hope for that! -
Bass Direct. They might have to order it in, but that's way cheaper than ordering from the USA.

How do you select pickups? -

I was aware of nickel allergies in people, but apparently Monel has a far higher content so it can cause symptoms even when normal nickel strings do not. I had a very painful 3 or 4 days when I tried them out. I've put La Bella's on now. They don't sound as nice but they don't hurt either. -
Simple way to determine effect of combining cabs?
fretmeister replied to asingardenof's topic in Amps and Cabs
bit harsh, and unnecessarily sarcastic. It’s a valid question to ask. -
What is nude jazz? I'm wondering if that is what I've been playing in my house for all this time!

Anyone know if the black and white nylons have different tensions / flexibility? I've put some Copper White Nylons on my Sandberg TT4 and I'm liking them. No finger noise but a tone quite similar to a roundwound. Just wondering about the black ones for a different bass. ta

I've put La Bella DTF stainless steel on my shorty, and while I was at it, put some White Copper Nylon tapes on a different bass. No problems at all now.
