M@23

[quote name='Danthearsonist327' timestamp='1419993604' post='2644732'] Guess it's all just BS! How do you like these cabs M@23? Serving you well? [/quote] BS is about right! Unfortunately I don't have my 102p anymore, but regret selling it and would really like another! If you have two you can stack them vertically too for a smaller footprint and easier-to-hear-yourself 4x10. I pushed one cab pretty hard and didn't have any issues though. They are punchy little things.

I've used two 102p together and a 102p with a 151p, the two 102p 2x10 paired far better. They are really great cabs. Having two would cover all eventualities. One is plenty enough for small gigs. Saying that, two 151p would make a pretty cool 2x15!! Definitely find the cab you like and buy a second for maximum versatility, if you want a small light modular rig that can be used for bigger gigs too.

Enjoyed that. Looks like you've had some great gigs. What was the one with the orchestra and X Factor fella, amongst others?

These look cool. I'd love to try one. Nevada is a good shop too.

Yeah, looks like a 70s/80s Japanese thing. Or what was once one! A Teisco or something maybe?

They're going to sound huge! Look very smart too.

[quote name='police squad' timestamp='1419950529' post='2644229'] I've learned this, (my brother passed away from Cancer, he was 49). You have to grab life and enjoy it. You only get one chance. [/quote] Really sorry to hea about your Bro. You're spot on though mate.

In: 2x TKS s112 A Markbass Compressore (which is soon to be moved on) A 1996 Japanese Precision Out: Markbass 2x12 Hopefully soon to be out: Markbass Little Mark 3 and Compressore I've learnt that I prefer simplicity. After trying all sorts of pedals, it's just not for me. I've even been using my clip on headstock tuner over my TU-2! I've also gradually gone from an ultra modern tone with my last originals band to a more old school vibe with the current and main functions band. So, a P bass into a decent amp and my modular 2x12 (why did I lug 4x10 and 2x12 cabs around for so long?!) Suits me down to the ground. Whilst I love Markbass gear, I'm also moving away from it in 2015. The LM3 and Compressore are great, but the time for change has come!

Markbass discontinued their 6x10, I've no idea if you'd be able to find one new now, probably not. The Classic 104 pictured above is long gone too. The 4x10 version of your cabs is the 104HF and the 2x12 is the club600f32 - both with front ports like your cabs. If you're after a 2x12, there is one for sale here on BC - a club600f32 which itself has just been discontinued and you're unlikely to see another 2nd hand one come up for sale soon; and it probably won't be in the great condition this one is in!

Wow, as mentioned, that thing is ugly. You'd have to have some money to buy another person's custom spec'd second hand bass for 30k!

My covers band ends with Sex on Fire by KoL - it's pretty much guaranteed to get a drunken sing along going.

[quote name='FuNkShUi' timestamp='1419706555' post='2642121'] This is the exact rig Ill have once my speakers arrive. Glad to hear you're so happy with it. I don't play too much rock stuff, but nice to know it can go there. I'm playing mostly Motown stuff at the minute, so I hope it performs just as well! I think it will [/quote] I've just decided that a TH500 is next, I'm playing lots of motown at the moment too. Let me know how you get on when your cabs arrive!

[quote name='Pinball' timestamp='1419703034' post='2642065'] You have 90 now. I'll update the big thread later and make everyone is included [/quote] 92 now. Great idea to keep the big post going with the list of links. Good work!

[quote name='vmaxblues' timestamp='1419634967' post='2641558'] Hi all, Could use a couple of cheeky likes on one of my bands Facebook page, cheers for looking [url="https://www.facebook.com/Thecoldteaband"]https://www.facebook.com/Thecoldteaband[/url] This is a new band, done a couple of gigs, feeling our feet with material. Any comments gratefully received. Cheers Stuart [/quote] Quality band name! I'm number 100 ☺

[quote name='paulbass' timestamp='1419635441' post='2641562'] 'LIKED' several of these pages... its always good to support fellows members! Its also good to watch some of your youtube clips and see what you play on your fb page [/quote] Yeah, definitely. Although, just realised, the only video clip on our page is of a Fontela Bass number - which we havent played for a few gigs now... might have to bring it back!!

Another vote for Hercules stuff.

https://www.facebook.com/rewiredfunctionband My function band - the page is pretty sparse at the moment but we are working on it! Relatively new, lots of gigs booked for 2015 and always get great feedback - but find it hard to build following like my orignals band has. Would love to get closer to the 100 mark! Much appreciated. Cheers guys. Edit, all of the above liked! ☺

[quote name='Pinball' timestamp='1419608706' post='2641257'] Nice idea, I like it and will maybe set one up so that other can benefit Cheers Keep them coming! [url="https://www.facebook.com/TheAngryBadgers"]https://www.facebook...TheAngryBadgers[/url] [/quote] Nice one, cheers. Unfortunately, as tedious as collecting 'likes' is, it does seem to make a difference to promoters, agents, managers, landlords et all. Therr are quite a few of us here, we could help each other out.

[quote name='Bobthedog' timestamp='1419597945' post='2641140'] For my two Fenders and G&L right angle at the bass end. It fits better with the "gig loop" through the strap. Less loopage at the guitar. [/quote] Same here.

So, is there a thread where we can post FB links to 'like' each others band pages?

[quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1419362959' post='2639207'] Covers look nice and substantial and therefore should do the job of protecting the cab. I find a decent padded cover makes quite a difference over a year or two as try as you might you just can't avoid bashing one at some point or two.. [/quote] It's such an effort at the end of a gig too. I managed a dozen gigs or so before my covers arrived and managed not to knock them once. But I was unbelievably careful, which isn't always easy when you're in a rush or the load in/out involves narrow hall or stairways. The TKS covers are great. Tailored perfectly too.

Stunning. What a pair! Now I want a matching 212...

Nice one. Really nice set up you have there

Not seen these before, looks really nice though.
