  3. Didn't the Stones say that first?
  4. Come Dancing - Kinks
  5. Court of the crimson king - King Crimson
  6. Damn near perfect weight balance between them too. Stick your bass in a backpack style gig bag and you can do your load-in in one trip! A
  7. Is 'lightweight and portable' even in the same ballpark as Ampeg? I thought the two were mutually exclusive! I know the more recent stuff's been getting lighter, but Ampeg are never going to be competition for Barefaced are they?
  8. Am I alone in missing the days when the lightest part of your stack was the head? Don't get me wrong, I'm in no hurry to return to the old days when moving your rig meant risking a hernia, but where's the heft gone? A

  13. https://barefacedbass.com/product-range/Super-Midget.htm Barefaced cabs are built by Alex Claber, who posts on this forum. They're ridiculously light, crazy loud and sound good throughout their full range. They're not cheap, however, but the level of engineering and craftsmanship used in them is seriously impressive. A
  14. Black boys on the corner - Same
  15. I'd give serious thought to a Barefaced Super Compact. They're built by a guy who posts on this very forum and they're light, loud and compact (as you'd expect). https://barefacedbass.com/product-range/Super-Compact.htm
  16. I don't even know what over half these words mean - I think I might have trouble with this!
  17. Three little pigs - Green Jelly/Jello
  18. Electric Avenue - Eddy Grant

    Paint

    My self-built PA cabs are painted with Tuffcab, applied with a sponge roller. it gives a textured finish, a bit finer than Tolex, but fairly attractive and, as the name suggests, tough. Generally one coat is enough on the front surface of ply, but on the edges a first coat should be applied before the finish coat, as the endgrain soaks up the moisture in the finish. A
  20. Flowers in the rain - The Move
  21. Janie's got a gun - Aerosmith
  22. Running on Empty - Jackson Browne
  23. I had a felt tip pen with a hexagonal lid that was a perfect fit. Poke the lid in, and spin the tape around like a lasso, and you'd be rewound all the way in under a minute! A
  24. Made me actually laugh out loud, for real!
  25. Johnny B Goode - Chuck Berry
