    I can imagine that the production costs are relatively high and demand low and sporadic. From my limited knowledge of the carbon graphite world prepreg material has more than quadrupled in price recently, not helped by the situation in Ukraine, and the tooling costs, autoclave etc make setup costs very high.

    Great work and a really nice result. When I first saw your solution to the gouge in the body I wasn’t a fan, but seeing it finished I think the dog might have come up with something innovative. The single pickup cover makes for a lot of thumb positions to exploit the tonal differences between the two pickups. It might just be that your dog is a genius in disguise 😎

    This is the sort of pay-to-view channel I’d subscribe to 😍

    John East used to offer a battery indicator but it’s no longer listed on his website but it might be worth dropping him a message?

    Same in the pipework industry 4500mm of 6” pipe 😎

    Ah many thanks Andy - I’m off to Axminster to order one 😎

    I know what you mean, it took me quite a while to dial mine in. At first I thought it was a bit ‘listless’ tone wise, but now my passive P goes in Channel 1 with preshape 2 engaged, and the fretless goes in Channel 2 for a healthy mid boost to bring out the mwah.

    Yes @warwickhuntbut with a difference, my speakers will be in a line as my OCD couldn’t take that either 🤣

    Andy, Hope you don’t mind me asking, but what model cutter do you use in your router? Reason for asking is that most of the top bearing cutters I’ve used have too much cutter below the bearing to make your wonderful safe technique work for me hence why I still make templates for everything.

    So regarding size, this is going to be a single cab solution to all my gig needs, therefore I am not looking for ultra small or lightweight. Playing around in Excel, I think its going to be really difficult to be below 100 litres and stick with a finished width of 520mm to accommodate a 19" rack head in rack case without overhang (my OCD can't do overhangs 🤣). So width is fixed, height is dependent upon getting two drivers plus port on the baffle and depth is going to be whatever it is without the whole thing being unstable.

    Personally, I just stick my Radial Tone Bone in front of whatever amp I'm using. Set channel 1 to flat and plug your 'main' bass into that, use channel 2 with the full range of tone controls for your second bass. This also works great if you are doubling fretless and fretted or EUB & fretted.

    I’ve built and finished few bodies over the years and the cost is in the time not the materials. Making templates, cutting, routing, shaping, then sanding, spraying, flatting, and polishing all take hours upon hours. I would budget around one third to one half the cost of the bass when new for a new one-off body.

    Fascinating stuff, thanks again Phil for taking the time to look at this for me.

    I once had a girlfriend like that 😂

    I’ve been using a Line6 G50 for a long long time, probably 10 years. I’ve had no bad experiences or signal dropout although a previous guitarist had the same unit and I would cause his to drop out if I got between his transmitter and receiver even though we were on different channels. He moved his receiver to his pedal board and the problem was solved. I’d love another transmitter pack as I often swap fretted to fretless, but they are bloody expensive!

    Fantastic bass wah pedal and just what you need for the NIB bass solo. Just used mine last Sunday for exactly this reason (although I did balls the solo a little). GLWTS

    OneControl Blue 360 preamp pedal. This pedal captures the tone of the mighty Acoustic 360 and crams it into a small form factor pedal. Will break up nicely into that ‘70s mosfet distortion or go absolutely crazy with the side mounted micro drive switch in the up position. This has been on my pedal board so has Velcro on the bottom but otherwise is pristine. Will come in original packaging with the rubber feet in case you don’t use Velcro. Price includes UK second class tracked postage or collection from Killingworth and I’ll knock £5 for postage off the price. I won’t be too disappointed if this doesn’t sell but I’ve plenty of preamps here so it isn’t going to get a lot of use hence this for sale thread.

    TC Electronics SpectraComp compressor. Best single knob compressor pedal on the market imho. Use the TC software to apply artist Toneprints to the pedal or create your own unique compressor settings including multi band. Been on my pedal board so Velcro on the bottom but other than that it’s pristine and comes in original packaging with the manual etc. Price includes UK second class tracked postage or collection from Killingworth, Newcastle upon Tyne and I’ll knock £5 off for the postage.

    Go for it Jack - you won't be disappointed. I ran a Goliath Snr for a good few years on bigger stages and it always sounded awesome.

    I 'think' I prefer nice warm old school to be honest. I notice most commercial 2x12's seem to calculate to around 110-120 litres so I'm guessing that's 50-60 litres per driver?

    Cheers Phil, that’s very interesting and makes a lot of sense. When I put the Deltalites in the 4x10 Goliath it definitely acquired a very ‘musical’ low mid bump compared to the tired old PAS speakers. Daft question, but is there any advantage to mixing drivers albeit in separate boxes or is that a big no no?
