Anyone here ordered from PedalPCB? How long it take to get here? Mine reached the UK two weeks ago so guess caught in customs limbo

Sure - don’t you know that over £100 for headphones (on a forum where basses are regularly 10x that have been advertised for 100x that) is blatant flaunting of your wealth?!

They might not have responsibility - but even if you paid £200 for them to draw up the documents for you that show the ivory was reclaimed from an early piano would be cheaper and less risky than finding someone to remove replace and repair any fretwork. the other benefit is anything else that is near restricted in the guitar like mother of Pearl will also be documented - who knows in 5 year time what will he restricted

@jimbobothy showed me his Zoia and it kinda blew my mind a little bit

A year on, it really reads oddly without the context

Sire - Export version of the domestic Dame init?

I have some that are 600Ohm the 2021- MacBook Pro's can drive them providing you don't mind it being quite quiet. I ended up buying a Behringer mini mixing desk as it was the cheapest way to get something with the power to drive them! u ok hun?

The Transducer Testing Transit

is the bass juice the one that was on sale here a week or so back?

it sounded so bad in that clip I did wonder if something was wrong with it?

Just bodge some drivers in a box and use something to tune it the best you can? 🤷 I dont really get it tbh - the cheapest way in terms of time and money is to buy something - if you are investing time in making nice boxes (nice hardwood outers?) why not spend enough to get something better technically than anything you could afford to buy? plus then you get to level up your bragging rights!

Alder first, Merenti second? Guessing just cos I want bonus point more than any real conviction

my faves.... The two Origin effects ones, though is it cheating as they have amp sim on? The two Tech 21 rack models, VT bass and Geddy sig The Digbeth thing also stood out, I've not heard of that one before Also nice most the time but not as nice as the above The Badwater, and the Bass butler

Are there not diy plans for hifi stuff you could follow in the same way there are some diy plans for bass cabs?

Of course if they go up to 11 that’s one better…

Ignoring switches I count 94 knobs and sliders … presuming 10 distinct positions on each knob that’s 10000 0000000000 0000000000 00000000000000000000 0000000000 00000000000000000000 0000000000 0000000000 options

Measure the pickup placement for us when it arrives?

Isn’t tone doing crossover point? Or is that a boost? I’ve got a crossover drive pedal that has adjustable crossover and does similar things to the EBS - it’s nice

“Off the shelf” with 4 pedals that look like you built them… not just got them off the shelf!!

I love my BCcab and have in the past compared it to the equivalent cab design ethos model made in Brighton and much preferred the BCcab comparing the BCcab to the silverstone I was amazed how much difference and how much nicer Stevies evolution of the design was. Purely subjectively it’s just sounded nicer and more musical in the upper mids and a smoother response. Another big difference, I run a colour box v2 at the end of my pedal chain, lovely pedal at low gain for bass but turn it up too loud and it goes from fuzz to some awful square wave sound of something clipping horribly - BCcab it’s ice picks aimed at your head, LFSys was more in control and just sounded a bit nasty. I’m probably an odd use case for a bass cab as I play a lot straight into a PA - what the LFSYS does is set my effects pedals (HX stomp up to recently) and then know that that tone via the pa was going to be fairly similar ish

I thought I remembered him posting about that J type. Sad

I would not say I did it with any great accuracy… and I did make the presumption that the drivers were the model they were labeled and used the driver manufacturer’s TS parameters. The graphs that it created looked like what I was hearing, esp when increasing the input power… So not any degree of accuratey at all but it explained what I was hearing and the difference between a cab that sounded fine at low practice levels and caused massive issues for the live sound engineer turned up. from memory the box was too big for the drivers and the port (a hole cut in the baffle, so 15/18mm deep) wasn’t tuned quite right- so with a slight increase in power the bottom end dropped of and there was a massive spike in the mids that cut through thr mix in a slightly uncontrollable way. since then I have had or used: ACME, Barefaced, Mesa Boogie, Gallien Krueger, Ashdown and now BCcab and Stevies LFSys and am happy that the designers of those cabs had and used the TS perameters to create a lovely set of bass cabs.
