  1. Mine's £2300. It's at the top of my budget, but I think it's a goer.
  2. AAAAAaarrrggghhhhh!!! I'd finally finished designing the Frog to how I want it & then this happens!
  3. That's got to be the thread title of the year so far.
  4. Personally, I love the look of MarkBass cabs over those that go for the old cloth grille. But then it's each to their own. We all have different tastes.
  5. Though with Apple, they probably put a lot of that profit back in to development. I'm not so sure the same can be said for Aguilar if they still use an off the shelf driver.
  6. If there’s more than 1 driver, then you could make it 16 ohm.
  7. There's many great looking & sounding cabs that are a good bit cheaper. Yes, the Aguilar SL series look like cool 1950's TVs, but the DBs look just like EBS Classic Line or Ampeg SVT cabs, but with a different badge & an amp handle in place of a grab.
  8. Makes the Darkglass cabs seem mid priced!
  9. I've always set it by bringing the input up to just clipping & then backed off a bit. And like Dad says, listening for any unwanted distortion.
  10. For most amps, this means the minimum load you can hook up is 4Ω total. So that would mean 2 8Ω cabs. Doesn't matter if it's one to each out on the amp or daisy'd. 2 x 4Ω cabs =
  11. Yolanda's face agrees. I'm restricted to £2k But it's 2 months away... Things might change.
  12. Love that there's now more than just the Elwood. The Frog is a great looking bass. I'm tempted by this a lot!
  13. They look fantastic. I'm about to be in the market for a fretless 5, but these are that wee bit out my reach (like £600).
  14. You might be better selling the PT & getting something like a Diago Gigman?
  15. In the worship band, I find some songs need the click track to keep everyone in time, especially if there's a pause in the song or a part that's not got a noticeable rhythm playing with it. But then there's songs where we switch the metronome off after the count in & just play. The click gets in the way of the feel. In my rock band, there's no click track. I was listening to some stuff we did last week & there's a few parts where even if just the drummer had a click, it would have made a huge improvement.
  16. It's the vocalist who's the worst timekeeper in the band I'm in, though in fairness, he's not really a musician. I don't think he counts bars at all.
  17. It must be great to live in an area with an abundance of musicians of various levels of skill to choose from.
  18. I think the "guitarist" point is that if they're able to turn it down & still have their "tone", then they're more of a musician than a guitarist. Same goes for drummists, but their volume is controlled through their hitting.
  19. I know a few drummers like that. They'll start a song at quick 4/4 tempo & by the end the song, we're playing a slow shuffle!
  20. I don't think so. The guitard brought him along as there's a shortage of singers (& musicians) round here. In fairness, he's looking at getting singing lessons.
  21. It's our singist that could do with a metronome. He could also do with learning to count beats & bars & maybe learn to sing too.
  22. It was the Volta tour in Las Vegas (December 2008 IIRC). She did a lot of stuff from previous albums too. Desired Constellations was awesome. It was played on a reactable table synth.
