On the plus side 'Henry the 8x8' Cracking name!

ASS cabs? Was the Dean playmate the one with the iffy 'Dean is coming' advert that got pulled?

Hmmm very different sounds imho. The compact has no tweeter and dosnt really do much treble (imho, ime) thus it's best when partnered with a brighter cab. Unless you like a more retroish tone in which case it's spot on. It's very very loud and fills a room with the whole of it's range, unlike other cabs where I've often found either the bass or treble carries but not the whole sound. While the compact has quite enough treble on it's own for I'd imagine the majority of players if you are a slapper (ooer!) or of the more hi-fi tone persuasion then it's not a stand alone option. I use mine to great effect with a promethean tweeter equipped 1x10 and my midget T is inbound. Coupled with another cab it makes your sound MAHOOSIVE!! And to me, therein lies it's true ability. :-) The RS 210 is a fab punchy cab with a lovely sweet tweeter and is a great size and weight. Not as light as the compact but a better stand alone alrounder for many I'd guess. If I tire of my compact it's where I'm heading next The BFB super twelve T seems like an excellent all rounder too. If it's got the power and room filling capacity of the compact which i suspect it does, coupled with manageable portability and a tweeter too! 4ohms too, which will pull the maximum wattage out your head. But not cheap.

It probably is lots of the same guts.

Probably elixir strings mate.

The gaffer is a custom build that last I heard Andy is planing to add to the standard product line. Dunno if he still is but I'm sure if you asked for one one would turn up within a few days as usual!

The heels look wife chunky, are they ok In the 'flesh' ?

The mij/cij 75ri's really are amazing basses and they do a lush candy apple red

I really fancy one of these. Only slight problem is I'm very into minimising the amount of kit and it seems it would be a hefty extra bit of gear and one I can't really afford tbh but I really want to get one I bought some auralex foam off alex for a tenner, not sure what I'm gonna do with it yet.

Mmmm Konnie Huq

Hah hah. My glasses prescription is even stringer. That's my lenses mrs Gafbass is something like -8:00!!

A legend of epic proportions. Saw a thread I'd posted about DI boxes and pm'd me to GIVE me one. Yup. You heard me, GIVE me one. !! (a di box;) That's proper basschat right there! Top gent and I'd say a pretty safe bet!!! Thanks Cliff. :-D

Heh heh. I'll get on it asap. Daisy has dealt with her jab really well today (so far!) so that's good news. How did the Marcus assembly go?

They do look v tasty!

That one I recognise from gigs, new it's out of my range but if a used one turns up I'd prob take a punt

The white jabba that was in BGM really flicked my switch :-)

Indeed Tino, well said, welcome swanbrook I hope you enjoy basschat as much as we do, it really is a lovely, warm and friendly place. There's always ups and downs, esp in off topic but hopefully you'll stick around and get to know us all better.

[quote name='BottomEndian' post='934715' date='Aug 24 2010, 01:15 PM']Woo-hoo! Around 13 months old? That one's generally fine. Maybe a bit of a grumbly bairn for a day or two afterwards, but no worse than the ones around 3/4 months (in fact, substantially better IME!). I'm dreading the MMR round two for our big fella at 3y4m. For the first time with jabs, he'll know what's going on! It'll be a job to get him in the room... Aaaaaaaaaaaaanyway... back on topic![/quote] Yeah she's 13 months already, where did that time go!!??! She already got her finger stuck in the prometheans grill so she's gonna have a bad day bless her! Thanks for the info mate :0) Really interested to hear about that other hissy one, glad I'm not going mad too lol.

I think any further use from this thread may have passed ..

I'll do some better pics when I get a chance too Cool innit! Sounds fekkin lush! Very punchy and modern, suits my Billy Gould-ness perfectly, it can do vintage too thoughbut that's not my bag

.....' Damn, that thing's cool!! ' Just arrived so I've only had time enough to plug it on and play for two mins (I'm with the little un) but .... ...... ....... NO HISS!!!! Yay ! Oh it's sooooo cool. I reckon we'll be seeing plenty of these! Full review to come. Along with barefaced compact/midget, zoom b9.1ut and wizard gaffer reviews. Just as soon as fatherhood allows, it's the dreaded MMR this afternoon :-/

Lol I know the feeling. -6:00 left and -6:50 right myself!

The SFX D1 looks perfick but is rather out my price range

Cool, cheers, that looks like the BSS one. I was hoping for something smaller if poss. Keep em coming!
