Musiciany chums - specifically bass players! Anyone fancy a gig this coming Saturday afternoon? The band I'm in is playing The Castle of Comfort, Medstead (near Alton) 2.30-5.30 (with a break), and we're short of a bass player. We play 50's style blues, R&B and rock & roll, and the line-up is Stephen Fuller on vocals guitar,drums,keyboards. It's a lively, fun line-up. Anyone fancy it? PM me for details of dosh, set list, links to songs, etc. Fanks very much.

Glad your enjoying the beast.

Last nights pre rehearsal cab "shoot out" revealed much. I amassed a veritable smorgasbord of gear: Headrush Core Mesa D800 Hartke 3500 Crown Xli 1500 Barefaced Super Twin Barefaced Two 10s (pair) Orange OBC 112 Ashdown Routemaster 610 After nearly 3 hours of plugging unplugging twiddling listening and conferring with a long suffering mate conclusion were reached? Ahem So I in true logical fashion created the ultimate rig of the apocalypse. Headrush running a Ampeg SVT model with Darkglass Drive. split signal to Mesa and Crown (1400 w RMS) with all 3 Barefaced cabs connected model. All reports of a small earthquake felt within 10 miles of Coventry, sounding like the bass Intro from Love Song by The Damned can be attributed to the monster rig. On a more serious not my mate was invaluable as in true Chappers style he blindfolded me and swapped stuff about. Many surprises followed and I would recommend this method to all confused GAS addicts. Playing along to a bass removed band recordings there was one sound that stood out for me. Mesa D800 Orange Cab. Just fitted in the best falling-out the sound and cutting through enough for definition. Adding The Headrush Comp and other effects. An honourable mention goes to the Headrush Ampeg model straight into our "vocal" RCF/Presonus PA! So im a happy boy compounded by the fact I found a pair of said Orange cabs file sale today and they will be attached to my Mesa tomorrow. So watch this space for an imminent upcoming SALE of Barefaced Big Twin 2 Silver Cloth excellent condition stupid loud Roqsolid cover & Barefaced Two10 4 Ohm Roqsolid cover usual Rolex peel but not to bad & BarefacedTwo 10s series 3 Switchable 4 or * Ohm Pre sale enquiries welcome

I run a Mesa Subway too with 2x Two 10s at 2ohms to get the full 800w. Err it’s very loud coloured as I warm. I’ve gigged with one cab but more is more lol playing hard rock covers. Dunno where you are I’m in Rugby you’re welcome to try them.

Not a bad call 1200w might be overkill lol

Hi I have moved into this century and bought a Headrush Core which I’m getting to grips with and loving more and more. I need a loud neutral bass rig for pub and club gigs where there is usually no PA support. I’ve been using a Mesa D800 with two Barefaced Two10s which gives a pretty character full sound. I went a bit mad and bought a Barefaced Big Twin 2 for a more neutral sound. It’s not right with the Mesa. Any ideas for a different amp head for the Big Twin? Or should I sell up and start again with another option altogether for the Headrush ?? im playing blues / hard rock and some pop function stuff predominately using a Sadowsky J type bass. I thought maybe a Hartke LD500?

Hey im lucky enough to own a Sire and Sadowsky with the vintage pre. See if you can try before your buy as they are VERY different beasts ! Stealth

Another vote for ace customer service they are a star n a murky night. Take note Presonus
