[quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1464873588' post='3063371'] Ooh! Ooh! What colour / style is it? [/quote] Same as yours, in the rather fetching orange. Fortuitous really, it's a colour that my wife loves, so there won't be any nagging if I keep it in the lounge for a while

The courier has just delivered. Rather than clutter up this thread, I will start a NAD thread of my own. I feel that a new one is relevant, given that WOT and I use different cabs and instruments. I'll spend a bit of time getting acquainted with the settings this afternoon and then get posting Please be aware that this amp will for the foreseeable, be connected to a Barefaced cab.

[quote name='alexclaber' timestamp='1464866894' post='3063253'] Regarding the 'expertise/opinions' from some people: It's a shame when opinion masquerades as fact. [/quote] Never a truer word and far too many examples of it in recent times.

[quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1464855006' post='3063111'] A number of folks here are saying they use both volumes on full. I've found that this gives lower output than if you back one volume off a little. Am I missing something? [/quote] No you're not, I've found the same.

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1464824247' post='3063006'] People think they need loads of gear when they don't! [/quote] Who do you think you are, spouting this kind of nonsense. I am appalled

For a good few years now, I've gigged with a pair of 2 x10's and been perfectly happy. Lately I've felt the need to down size, so a couple of weeks back bought a Barefaced Big Baby 2 (1x12" + horn). To date only played one gig with it, so early days but so far, I'm delighted. Certainly a game changer for me, no compromise on sound/volume, if anything more articulate. A huge plus for me, being the ease of load ins and outs.

[quote name='Muzz' timestamp='1464774205' post='3062321'] Hahahaa...I'm loving this thread...I can smell the burning tooth enamel from here... Well done Alex, and a serious rig there...I'd still want a roadie to carry those heads, mind...has Timmy never heard of the advantages of Class D? [/quote] Oh, Class D, just what we need added to this thread, good work Muzz

Wondered when this would appear on here Thanks for posting . Now please all behave, I'm off to cook some dins, will look back in later.

A fair few of the venues around these parts, have the dreaded sound limiters fitted. Heft is a definite disadvantage in said venues

I bet every single one of who gigs has felt that way after certain gigs. Most likely, driving home from the next one, you will be feeling the pleasing buzz of a gig well played.

[quote name='Iain' timestamp='1464677319' post='3061254'] I think I was just tired, hadn't slept well the two previous nights. [/quote] That would almost certainly be the problem. Lack of sleep messes with the ability to concentrate, big time.

Another brilliantly informative and useful review, to be added to the Bass Chat archives. Good work Mr. Discreet

Everything points to this being a cracking piece of kit WOT. Great to read of your good experience with it. I'm due to road test one of these amps myself and very much looking forward to it. It should be arriving at my place this week, hopefully in time for me to take it along to the Herts Bash, so that BC'ers can give it the once over.

Very lovely. G&L pups do take some getting used, worth persevering with though. I've found that the mixing of the tone/volume controls on G&L instruments really gets a pleasing end result. Have to admit to not being experienced with the LB100 but I've had and gigged a few SB1's and SB2's.

Great purchase. Worse case you could sell the parts for more than you've laid out but I bet, with a bit of fettling, it will be a decent enough player.

[quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1464453518' post='3059604'] I expect that all the best parking will have gone... [/quote] Yep, my stretch limo takes a fair bit of the available space

[quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1464445404' post='3059520'] Is anybody planning on bringing anything to sell?? Need to know how much space to allocate for this. So far it seems like it's me selling an amp and Sibob selling his Shuker 5 string (which I thought he'd sold) - I'm sure others (Gary Mac's vintage Fender?) will have gear they'd like to rehome. [/quote] Hadn't thought about bringing my 63 P but happy to if anyone is interested. Maybe I'll just bring it anyway, there must be BC'ers who even if not in the market for one, would like to at least see and/or play a pre CBS instrument.

That is one seriously cool looking rig

[quote name='Kex' timestamp='1464383626' post='3059147'] Than why bother replying in the first place ! [/quote] Love your friendly attitude, you certainly know how to endear yourself.
