  1. https://ashdownmusic.com/products/roasted-saint?variant=54907498365314 a bit left field but might just scratch that itch?
  2. I, too, would love to read it.
  3. I checked the Tech21 site for your mp spec and could not find it, that is why it was interesting. On the cab front, some of the new boutique 12" cabs outperform most 2x12s. Barefaced may or may not be out of reach, try looking at the LFSys Monza. If you really want two cabs, buy one excellent one, then add another when funds permit. I can vouch for the LFSys cabs, and there are many that can praise the Barefaced cabs.
  4. Happened to me, I checked other sites and did a speed test, all OK. I think it was 5-10 minutes.
  5. This cable consists of a Neutrik/Rean right-angled jack (new), 4m cable and a straight jack plug. The cable is re-purposed and unbranded, nuy spears to be high quality, is flexible and easy to coil. The original cable was belonged to a fellow bass chat member that cleared out a lot of old cables. Approximately 4m of OEM low noise guitar/bass cable Neutrik/Rean right-angled jack plug, one end. Generic straight jack plug that appears to be of a decent quality. Price includes 48-hour delivery.
  6. Interesting, on the Tech21 site "AMPLIFIERS Built around the warm analog brain of our SansAmp technology, our amplifiers offer yoga-guru flexibility with easy-tweaking layouts. We also built them as tough and good-looking as Lemmy. Whichever you choose, these amps will quake the bedrock live and in the studio. Due to exorbitant price increases of materials combined with supply chain and transportation issues, we have suspended production of all amplifiers. We will, however, continue to service and provide technical support as we always have."
  7. The equal loudness curves are "upside down" compared to a typical frequency response or transfer function graph. So although it looks like a smiley face on those plots, to achieve a natural sound you need to dial in a smiley face on your pre-amp/amplifier at low volumes to get a natural sound. In a gig situation, smiley face, where the Lows and Highs are boosted, is not ideal.
  8. Yes It is, and I realise that after investigation. I was just having a bit of fun.
  9. On the name, It is not a spelling that makes sense in modern English, and it does offend the eye. However according to the real Wiki, Squire, Squair, Skair, Skuyer, Squires were all variations of the name over time. I hereby announce that going forward I will produce Squair, Skair and Skuyer guitars and basses.
  10. I had one, sold it and have regretted since.
  11. What did you use to roll the edges of the fingerboard?
  12. I agree Tim, but how else do we dispel the myths and utter ballcocks that some are convinced are true? You know the ones: Trace Watts are bigger than anyone else's (I love the sound of a Trace) Valve Amps are more powerful than solid state. Class D is weedy/unreliable (only the cheap far eastern stuff on E,I,E,I,O Express, BangBad, the Evil Bay and Amazoff.com). Sadly, most people will take the easy/lazy option, but we must still try to argue the truth.
  13. Volts and current do have to coexist, in a resistive circuit, I think that going into phase shift, reactance etc. is a step too far for here. In fact, things have probably gone too deep for most already.
  14. Mr Stub, I would fire anyone that used a SM58* except...the bandleader has one and is convinced has some magic inside. *There are some great mics out there that are not SM58s and are less money.
  15. I am going to guess that these are "custom" versions of the Deltalite 2510 and as they are not available either, it's most unlikely that you will get a re-cone kit for it.
  16. I have just updated the third part, AC Power, of this at the start. I did most of my theory 50 year ago, so forgive me if I have made an error.
  17. We have only got 5 gigs booked for this year!
  18. Capability Brown* - Voice *the band not the gardener (I believe he has passed, RIP)
  19. The problem with Ohms law (it is not really a problem) is that without any of the three attributes, the others exist only in name. Yes, you can have a battery with a Pd of 12V but without a path for the current to flow through, the 12 volts has potential, but it's "all dressed up, no place to go". Similarly, you can induce current in a coil, but the only if it is connected to a circuit. I introduced a new term above, Pd, the potential difference. Volts are the units that measure potential difference, in the same way that amperes are the units we give to current. Confusingly, current is designated I, as using C would confuse things as capacitance is C in the electrical world. One of the things I often see is people talking about the Amperage. No such term, it is current measured in amperes. It is common and quite correct to abbreviate that to amps.
  20. I have some right angle adaptor for Neutrik speakONs if that helps. Makes them much closer to the cabinet. Of course, they only fit some speakONs which I can supply and supply is limited.
  21. One thing to be aware of when buying dye is to check that you select the right colour. Does anyone want to buy some white wood dye?
  22. The LFSys Monaco would probably suit you well. I had one but getting a bit long in the tooth, I needed a lighter cab so swapped it for a 10" Monza. Neither cab has ever broken a sweat, and the only difference I noticed was that I had to turn up the volume slightly once I changed to the 10". Other cabs may suit you as well, and of course we can only recommend what we have experienced.
  23. I must admit that I found designing much easier than repairing, so a good tech is to be admired.
