[quote name='Clarky' post='789123' date='Mar 29 2010, 08:30 AM']So WoT, based on your experience so far, will this amp do a passably good tube-y rock sound, ie, can it replicate reasonably well the sounds of your Walkabout? Reason I ask is I am still mulling getting a gig-bag sized second amp and am thinking about the RH450, the new SWR Headlite, the MB Little Mark Rocker, and - for the hell of it (its no smaller than my Walkabout head) - the Orange Bass Terror. Ta[/quote] Might be worth considering the Classic450 too, it's the RH450's less intelligent/less pretty/less popular/less expensive sister! but AFAIK it's the same amp behind the scenes.

Turn your computer off, open your front door, rub your bleary eyes and bask in the glory of the sun. Then play with the traffic.

I would love to play and sing this song. I need to get my head round doing it in a different key first. No way could I squeak my way through it in the original key

No bids on this so far - so if anyone local to him fancies having a punt on this & re-selling the bass to me, you'd end up with a free/very cheap monolithic 70s bass rig! J.[/quote] I might keep an eye on this. It would be worth the road trip if it went for a bargain price...

Very sad story. Will definitely make me think twice when i go into a pub to play in future. It does make you wonder what kind of idiot you have to be to think pyrotechnics indoors is a good idea... The gerb pyrotechnic things fire 15 feet of sparks for 15 seconds, even if there hadn't been dodgy sound insulation that must have been an obvious bad idea from the start to anyone with some common sense...

[quote name='Mandril' post='747313' date='Feb 16 2010, 03:11 PM']Nah, it's a barefaced vintage, it's only speakon... maybe I can try to replace the jack with a speakon. It needs soldering, right?[/quote] You might need to unsolder it from the jack end but the speakon end uses tiny screws, like a mains plug.

Any of these? [url="http://www.britishaudioservice.com/trace_operateinstru.shtml"]http://www.britishaudioservice.com/trace_operateinstru.shtml[/url]

My first gigging rig was a peavy 150w tour head into a no name 15 cab, with a peavey milestone III plywood sh*tt*r I currently don't have a gigging rig because i'm not gigging! but I'm playing a Washburn Idol (WB-66).

Have a look at the Hartke AK series, especially the 410. They're very Ampeg looking, paper cone cabs with a rock "voicing" in mind and a bit cheaper too.

[quote name='Delberthot' post='746166' date='Feb 15 2010, 05:52 PM']My incoming Trace 4x12" only has jack input as far as I know[/quote] Mister obbm can probably make you a speakon to jack cable? At least, i think that's possible.

Well, the 2U case can support a whole 32" monitor! [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2U-PC-MONITOR-SPEAKER-STAND-UNIT-RACK-CABINET_W0QQitemZ200403601779QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Musical_Instruments_Rack_Cases_MJ?hash=item2ea8fc4973#ht_610wt_967"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2U-PC-MONITOR-SPEAKE...73#ht_610wt_967[/url] They weigh about 20kg max, so i don't know if that is really saying much... However, they do say they're made out of MDF, which is stronger than plywood or chipboard, so i think it would be stronger than a bit of ikea rubbish (normally made of chipboard). I like them! they look pretty swish.

[quote name='hitchy64' post='743273' date='Feb 12 2010, 04:37 PM']I'v messed up Are you gonna go my way too. The bass bit that acompanys the guitar solo. Now I have a phobia of that song, although last night I nailed it [/quote] Nailing that bit is the best feeling in the world.

[quote name='Jamesemt' post='741310' date='Feb 10 2010, 06:54 PM']I'm running 300 watts with BOTH cabs...[/quote] But if the cabs are running in parallel, does that not mean that they are both receiving 300 watts?

Take the MMan in and A/B the two! It's the only way to be sure!

[quote name='uzzell' post='741295' date='Feb 10 2010, 06:41 PM']On the link you put up, it says the power hadling is 200w. Would that be a problem if you are trying to 'release 300 watts'? If it is ok to do this, I might follow suit.[/quote] The impression i have had from topics on here before is that it's ok to have a head with more wattage than your cabs, as long as you're sensible and make sure any distortion is from the amp/pedals and not the speakers themselves!

Take them off and put them in cola overnight? I've heard it works on bridges and knobs...
