20,000 might not be enough...

Only available in boxes of 20,000 apparently 😲 but I'll look some more.

Don't believe so, as the hammer action of the gun would probably take the finish off - I'll Google it though 👍

I've been thinking about this too, as my One10 and Two10 have both reached the stage where they're really too bad to leave any longer. IMO even if you decide to tape the join, you're better off re-fixing the loose Tolex first. Instead of gluing, I'm considering using my staple gun across the join and then taping on top; or getting some thin/narrow but stiff black plastic strip and stapling through that. Might look a bit naff tho with the bright staples showing.

Great job Luke! No more than this wonderful cab deserves - and exciting too 😉

Just got a really nice Ampeg PF800 from Pete. Everything just as you would want it to be from start to finish, top Basschat-er! Amp was collected by a friend of mine, who reported back that I would certainly have enjoyed meeting Pete. Maybe next time 👍

I'm deeply impressed by all this - what a fantastic example of the value of this forum and a credit to you guys!!

Me too!!

Just traded amps with Simon. Mesa delivered to his house yesterday, Darkglass arrived at my house today - one mint amp exchanged for another. This was the easiest and quickest transaction I've ever done on here - cashless too 😊 Mike

I bought a used one, sold it to try other stuff, realised I'd made a mistake - and bought a new one 😬

After reading the early posts on this topic I've just hopped back on at the end - so apologies if this has already been mentioned. I recently bought a new Genzler Magellan from Andertons for £749. This is a latest-generation, fully-featured D-class amp that oozes quality and sounds great. I take my hat off to them for bringing it to the UK market at such a reasonable price. Compare and contrast with the GK Fusion 800 (equivalent but around £220 dearer) and Mesa D800 (fewer features, a bit of a one-trick pony and around £120 dearer). I've owned both and they are great amps but not IMO good value for money and too expensive for me to buy new.

All very interesting this! I bought into BF with a couple of used cabs - an SC Gen3 and Midget T. The latter went in favour of another SC G3 (didn't really need/like the tweeter). Now I've added a used Two10 and plan to keep all 3 cabs until I decide whether the retro 10" drivers suit me and my amps/basses better than the 12-inchers. If both styles work equally well in different contexts, I'll keep/use all 3 cabs (not mixing the different driver sizes as recommended by Alex). If the 10s turn out to be better for everything, I'll sell the SC G3s and buy another Two10. Oh, nearly forgot about the One10 I use at home and small gigs - that's brilliant for what it does and is a keeper. I've decided against trying other makes as I like the BF sounds, size & weight are over-riding factors for me - and life's too short!!

Really enjoyed that! Great example of a bass player giving the song exactly what it needs - especially the way he picks up the brass vibe.
