Just slightly Dave Yes info sharing is fab, thats not what i'm on about I'm talking about pre-judging others on what is just text on a screen. I've met people off forums that i had previously met ON a forum and they turned out to be nothing like i had pre judged. We all make assumptions But back to the band ads, its worth following up and making a judgement on these bands after you've met face to face and chatted. Or maybe it's not Thats all i'm saying

Instead of speculating and giving wild conjecture, it may be better to follow up the ads first, then make a judgement call. Its like trying to judge someone on a forum simply by the text they post. You could be totally wrong in your assumptions, till you meet up Or you could be totally right , but assumptions are the mother of all f**kups

17 Years ago, a band i was in was a 3 piece, although it was formed as one at the outset and we didnt lose anybody, but our guitarist did lead, rhythm git, and main vocals. It never held us back It helps to have a stonking all rounder like that in a band. He was the Botham of 3 piece gigging

One thing about the ZB3 is that there doesnt seem to be any indication of which bank number is currently in use. My old Digitech multi BP8 has an indicator on the board to show it. So how are you supposed to know where you are if you need to change banks ? Seems like this could be a problem

[quote name='julesb' timestamp='1491823821' post='3275583'] Ok I stand corrected. My next thread will be: Will playing a bass 2mm from your chin ever make a come back? [/quote] That never went away either. I'm sure Mark King is still playing 2" from his chin

Ask TT if they use sustainable wood

Bought a footswitch from Dean and received the next day - marvellous !! Cheers fella

Well that didnt take long. Now have an original TE footie in the post Job done

Thanks folks I'll be looking for momentary dual footswitch

Thanks verb. I maybe misunderstanding things. I looked up the difference between momentary and latching and it still seems at odds with everything So if one wanted to kick the EQ in mid song, using a momentary switch, one would not have to keep their foot pressed on the footswitch ? One could kick the graphic in, take their foot off and the graphic would stay on ? I'm not really getting this, but then my knowledge of leccies is well below par

Hi Trev It wouldnt make sense for them to be momentary. Say you wanted to kick the graphic in mid song, you would have to keep your foot on the switch till you didnt need the graphic Same for if you wanted kick in the pre shape.

PS its for a GP11 Mk V Combo 4x10

In case i cannot find one of these... Would this be of any use from Amazon ? Its dual latching, which i think is correct I've seen other dual footswitches but they appear to use a mono jack, and the TE has a stereo jack like this Amazon cheapie below ..

Oh really ? So no gen 2 15 ?

Thanks Alex Gen 2 compact was it seems, the super fifteen, conan The original question was becuase at some stage, i fancy trying some fifteens, and BB cabs are certainly in the shortlist, albeit 2nd hand ones

Cheers frank

Super compact is a 12 though, so cant really be gen 3 of the compact. So i guess there was only 2 gens of the 15 ? For some reason, there are no 15's currently listed on the BB website Anyone know the difference between the 2 gens of the compact 15

I checked the site but history seems to disappear , like many sites I remember the first compact 15 to hit here, but they were always beyond my price range, so as new cabs came and went, i missed the generations So how many different 15's came after the first compact, which is suppose is gen 1 ?

I used the New York version - i guess they're pretty similar, though the New York is 4 ohm. I ran it with 2 single New York 12's, daisy chained I decided i dont like 12's ... just not the sound for me. I ended up with the MB 604 x two. Big lows. and mids.

Email from Clive Button today [i]At the time your combo was made Trace Elliot only produced combos in 150 watts, either 1 x 15 or 4 x 10 as you have so it is not possible to swap out your pre-amp/output amp section for one of higher power.[/i] [i]The other option is to replace all speakers with 16 Ohms ones and wire them all in parallel to produce a 4 Ohm load.[/i] [i]So sorry, generally not a lot of help to you. Maybe using a higher wattage external power amp run from one of the Line Out sockets on the front panel may be the answer as the 4 x 10 speakers could certainly handle more than 150 Watts.[/i] That kind of settles things

I'm not, its fine

I would say then, that if 10 times the power for a 150 watt combo is 1500 watt to hear doubling of perceived volume, then a 300 watt head isnt going to achieve much. And since only another combo head would fit, a 300 watt head is about all i could fit. Of the classic combos by TE, i dont think they got any bigger than that So, i guess ithings are best left as they are

Thanks ! I'm only curious at this point, but it has crossed my mind. I'm not totally sure, but the combos heads didnt seem to get much bigger than 300 watts ? Probaly not worth effort in that case. And yes, if i could muscle a 500 or 600 watt head in, i have four 10" Beymas i could fit, but then i suppose i would need to think about cab volume for those, and no doubt the cab would need modifying to use the 4 200 watt Beymas Its already looking like trouble Probably just leave it alone
