[quote name='Linus27' timestamp='1389453030' post='2334323'] Thanks for posting, really big Paramore fan and I love that song. [/quote] Heres the link to the sore throat version Linus. The roughness sort of adds to the tone of the song ( works for me anyway!) http://youtu.be/QKPuAwJuxzY

[quote name='Me And My Bass' timestamp='1389450669' post='2334288'] Thanks for that mudpup, Iv seen some of these style cases for cameras that have loops at the top so I can attach a strap as well. Will look at them as well. [/quote] Mine came with a strap too - the loops are on the sides

I use one of these for both my GB Shuttle 9.2 and Gallien MB Fusion500. Its the same as a Maplins one for £35 and has room for the amp and a couple of pedals/tunes if you dont put the amp in the middle of the case.

[quote name='bubinga5' timestamp='1389409052' post='2334004'] I absolutely love this. i thought Anita Baker could sing. i think she is fabulous [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKtqTYSOBCg[/media] [/quote] Ah yes, one of my all time fave female vocal performances. She does a great People get Ready too. If you like girly vocals, have a look at this below - its absolutely effortless. Real stripped back and raw. Theres also version filmed on a rooftop in London where Hayley has a chest infection and the rasp even sounds great! [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVybZvrIbOM[/media]

Think its pretty much exclusively on the PF500

Genz Shuttle 9.2 would be on my list.

Nah the Cleartones are pants - dont buy them whatever you do!

Xildxx - please keep quiet about those (the laws of supply and demand yknow!)

Nope Lineup is pants

This is doing it for me at the moment. Shinedown. Album is The Sound Of Madness. http://youtu.be/leI7kDcvp1I

I want to get a portable recorder thingy to record a few of our gigs and rehearsals. Needs a decent battery life, sound quality, mp3 format (i think) and the ability to mix in a desk feed sounds attractive too. I have narrowed it down to a Tascam DR40, Roland R05 or maybe a Zoom Q2HD (which will also do video) Budget ideally under £180 Any suggestions/experience with them?

[quote name='Lee Restarick' timestamp='1387233525' post='2309795'] Has anybody seen more of the incredibly priced NX2-212T's around. Looks like I was a bit late with the GAK offer. [/quote] The Basschat classifieds are a good starting point http://basschat.co.uk/topic/223610-genz-benz-nx2-212t/page__hl__genz__fromsearch__1 Not mine btw

Did anyone mention Iron Maiden Number of the Beast yet??

Scorpions - Lovedrive has to be on the list

[quote name='Dropzone' timestamp='1386763677' post='2304121'] I want a low A. The Cab is still functioning perfectly fine and there is no percieved drop in performance or tone. I am pushing the Jeff Berlin combo to it's max. The sound is very good and I want amazing and more volume available should I need it. I bought the S12 to complement the compact and a PF500, but they can't work together so am trying a GK2001rb. I know a bass player who swears by the GK head and knows everything about it so I will get him around to help me out. Have heard him play and he cuts through as clean as a whistle so should be plenty of tonal goodness. [/quote] I may be wrong but isn't that a 4ohm S12 and an 8ohm compact? Are you sure your amp will be happy with that? It all sounds a bit unbalanced to me if I am correct. The Super 12 will be taking a load more output than the Compact and the Compact is doing the harder work too. Probably best to give Alex a shout just in case. And a PF500 doesn't have the finest reliability rating when you need to push it - loads of failure issues recently with them. Be careful.

[quote name='TRBboy' timestamp='1386626211' post='2302467'] Hmmmm..... I just wish I could try one out! Despite the rave reviews, I still find it hard to believe that a single 12" could give me the sort of sound I'm used to! Although I really want to believe that it could so that I can have a smaller rig. I reckon a Shuttle 9.2 would drive a BB2 pretty well [/quote] I have that exact head/cab combo and it does. Welcome to come over for a blast.

I have the Mono on both basses. Love 'em. They feel bombproof and are so comfy. Agree about the length thing though. I tried both lengths and settled on running the long strap at its shortest ish. The short strap at its longest wasnt right. They should just do one version thats inbetween. Suggest you buy online so you can try one for a week before you decide.

A location would probably help

[quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1385827272' post='2292610'] When ordering from small companies, you will expect that they can't handle last minute hiccups very easily or effectively.. But I would expect a custom bass to take a year to make .... as that is the quoted finish time when ordering, but I couldn't accept half that time for a cab..... If someone said 6 months to deliver a cab, then the buyer needs to know that and reconcile whether they will wait that long. But if you put yourself in that position, you better not be needing that kit. [/quote] How many basses a week does that custom builder make do you think? Probably not even one. Compared to how many cabs are going out of the door every week. Apples and oranges imho. And this thread is degenerating into a mutation of loads of other similar ones re Barefaced wait times.......... Order the cab, expect to wait a bit longer than you think and then enjoy it when you get it. Buy it on that basis and theres no problem.

I think they may make them in batch runs so its pretty easy to trigger a delay by switching models rather than tweaking the spec on the same cab. I popped in to collect my BB2 and they were up their ears with preorders. There is a wall of orders waiting completion and the guys were flat out. Factor in the massive interest in the Gen 3 stuff........... It'll be worth the wait.

[quote name='funky8884' timestamp='1385665142' post='2290950'] HI Mudpup, how does the Barefaced compare to the GK ? ( volume,dispersion and sound ) Thanks [/quote] The BF is phatter, rounder, smoother, bigger sounding. HF unit sound very nice. The GK is more boxy and middy. The HF unit is pretty raspy and hard to get sounding good. Remember it was half the price of the BF though. The GK sound louder but not in a good way compared to the BF - its shoutier and very coloured. Whole different sound

I have a BB2 but last few gigs this year are in Thanet and Aylesbury. Will be near Guildford and also in Chertsey in January though. If you can be bothered, youre welcome to pop over my way and book a couple of hours in a local studio to scrounge it and turn it up a bit (or you can come round mudpup mansions and hear it in the front room)
