Brilliant! EDIT: Watch them all... Best thing I've watched in quite some time.

*flameproof pants on* Other than the BLX80, I've never played a Trace I liked. There, I said it. I've heard other people play through them and liked what I heard - really punchy - but when I played through them they felt weird...

Earthquake... Laney Richter Nuclear... Behringer iNuke Neither fall into the "never need to buy another big amp ever" category but they're all I can think of based on the abundance of information!!!

No way I could have done that! Had to take at least a mm off the ones I fitted. It wouldn't put me off doing it again (have already been eyeing up the Thomann site today, but I'm in clearout mode and need to sell a few things to make some space and pay off recent acquisitions... and there's a Fiesta Red version due into Thomann end of the month so I'd like to see pics of that!) but I'd be better prepared next time... DREMEL!!!

Nothing to laugh at! Good solid basses. Chunky neck (and I mean CHUNKY!) but feels nice. Sounds spot on, but I'd change the electrics. Pickup was great (Wilkinson), but they've changed them now - reports are the Roswell ones are good too. Only issue I really had was the tuners felt like cheap rubbish, but if I'd known how big a hassle it was going to be fitting wilkinsons with the rubbish file I had to hand I would have stuck with the originals I think (tuner baseplate is a few mm too big)! Possibly just needed liberal application of lube to make the standard ones feel nicer... @discreet should be on commision from Thomann he's sold so many with his refurb pics!

Ryan Martinie is a total monster of a player. I've listened to the Soften The Glare album a few times. Meh... Just not Mudvayne... I love watching him play though, I have to say. Think I've watched everything on youtube by now.

I would also like feedback on said feedback...

Yes I've had that experience before too... Recently we also had somebody drop a parcel over our gate to the dogs once, while we were in the house! Not any great value (well, £20 worth of Playmobil - Christmas present for my nephew). I looked out to see our Lurcher cross giving a small green troll a real chewing! That wouldn't have been so bad, but to add insult to injury he'd stopped to leave a card explaining he'd left the parcel in the back yard on the garage windowsill. Doubt he would have got near it with the dogs outside!

Another PMT Online one for you. Ordered a Helix last week on 18 months 0% finance. All smooth until day of delivery. I usually get such things delivered to work as a) it cuts out the unpleasant "how much did that cost" conversation at home and b) I don't have to make runs to courier depots to pick things up since, invariably, there's nobody home. Get an email from DPD - your driver Joe will be delivering your package between 12.48 and 13.48... Keeping an eye on DPD tracking page shows delivered and I haven't received it (not really out of the ordinary - my work is spread out across 9 units in a technology park, deliveries usually go to reception or goods inwards rather than individual units)... Ring around reception and goods inwards at work. No sign of it. Somebody in the office must have signed for it when I was out for a meeting. End of the day, still no sign. Off home I go, not worried but a little frustrated. Check postbox on way in the door. Nothing. Not until I open our back door to let dogs out into the garden and trip over the thousand pound box sitting on my back doorstep... Muppets have sent it to the wrong address, despite confirmation email CLEARLY showing delivery address was to my place of work. Now if I were an unscrupulous type I'd be tempted to say it wasn't delivered at all... but I'm not...

I wonder is it lacking low end or does it just have more of everything else? That seems to be a common misconception around FRFR-style cabs...

Nicely done!

It should have been released last year but his pcb fab messed up and he had to reorder 3 years worth of pcb stock again. There is a prototype pictured on that thread I sent you a link to. It's 125B size (roughly boss sized enclosure), north facing jacks, 3 controls (hpf frequency, lpf frequency and gain), 2 face mounted push switches to turn off hpf and lpf individually, footswitch for bypass and xlr output. No idea on price yet, but his other kits of similar complexity are €70 - 80 including a powder coated and screen printed enclosure.

How's your German? https://www.bassic.de/threads/lazarus-bastel-blog.14857964/page-19

Julian Pohler's upcoming Vong kit is pretty close to what you're looking for.

Yes, but I'd likely take longer and produce something considerably less professional looking than what Tom could do!

Having owned the CTM30 and Two10 it's a great sounding little rig, but it would only have served as a stage monitor for me in my previous, admittedly LOUD, metal band. I'd have needed PA support. With the MB500 as backup you should be fine though - the Two10 is loud for its size! If you used a dummy load on the CTM30 you could take a line out into the MB500 and use it as a power amp...

I haven't tried the One10s but they won't sound the same as the Two10. The crossover in the Two10 low-passes the signal to one of the speakers, so only treble coming from one. Not so with the One10.

Only as far as body shape goes! I'd spoken to them via email when I was considering getting a custom P built, but they didn't seem interested in changing any of their standard specs to meet my requirements (neck profile, fingerboard radius, nut width). Nice looking basses though.
