  1. [quote name='umcoo' post='863097' date='Jun 10 2010, 11:29 AM']Mine was 350. I'm not entirely sure mine and Ste's does have neo's. Ste deals with matamp more than me, but I don't recall any mentioning of neo's when I was spec'ing my cab. Maybe he knows more? It's worth an ask about the custom bits you want. Matamp aren't happy unless you're happy and are pretty thorough to make sure you get what you want, but not sure about what you want. It's worth a phonecall, email doesn't seem to have made much of an impression at Matamp HQ just yet [/quote] Yeah as far as I know mine and yours have neos in as that is the stock model. They can probably add extra bits but tilt back wheels and grab handles will make this a bitch as you'll have to bend your knees to drag that (bet you this is the first thing Jeff says about it ) it's a small cab not an 8x10 or 2x15 that they normally add those handles to. You've be better getting Jeff to give it pop in castors or make a board for you to push it on if it's such a concern, I think tilting it back won't work how you hope.
  2. Got it back from the tech yesterday, we only put 2 tubes in it as I'm in no great rush to use it so it's giving 50w out and its pretty freakin loud as is. Here is the guy shot It's working great now, sounds fantastic very clean and full, hopefully I can get a bit more playing time on it tonight. I also got my Dynacord MV15 back as well and man is it stunning now, we even managed to make up a new cable with a 3 pin din connection so I can use one of the mic channels over just the instrument one which is much easier to overdrive at lower volumes and with it back to being switchable between 15 and 6ohms I can use it with one of my Fane loaded Carlsbro cabs for home practice and the 2 for jamming with friends.
  3. So let me get this straight? Everything listed above for £100?
  4. My Hofner does not have weak pickups the output on them is similar to my Darkstars Basically it's a different vibe you go for with the shortscale basses, more thuddy and vintage, I love it, not everyone will but the beauty of it is it can be achieved with a fairly cheap instrument just wack some decent flats on it
  5. Trade you my Hofner for Betty, Bob
  6. I'll take it, PM with where you want the money. Cheers
  7. They actually uses those new technologies in their PA range and everytime I go Jeff trys to sell me on a 1x12 and 1x18 fold sub as it will destroy my 8x10 for response and volume apparently but it just doesn't look as cool.
  8. [quote name='BottomEndian' post='862224' date='Jun 9 2010, 03:42 PM']Does... not... compute... Maybe I'm a weedy little thing (in fact, I know I am), but 30kg ain't an easy lift for me.[/quote] Well there is 30kg's with a handle on the top and 30kg's with 2 well placed handles on a cab that doesn't slam your knuckles into door frames But either way they weigh 30kg's if that's heavy shop else where but you will not get a better 2x12 let alone a better one for the money.
  9. [quote name='umph' post='862221' date='Jun 9 2010, 03:38 PM']+1 matamps construction methods are a bit more bruteforce than your modern half inch ply with cunning bracing. not to knock matamp though they do make great sounding solid cabs. My 215 sounds the absolute dogs dangleys[/quote] Agreed to a point, their premise is no compromise on sound, they brace the crap out of them so as little vibrates externally as possible, the next problem is they don't like the sound of a lot of neo's, I have Neo's in my 2x12 and Monz doesn't and there is a HUGE difference in weight and his sounds bigger and bassier but mine is as big and bassy as I need
  10. These sound seriously awesome and I swear they weigh half of my 4x10, really punchy sealed cab sound, if you need louder then you are insane and deaf and stupid and DEAFFFFFFFFF
  11. I have the lightweight 2x12's and it's an easy 1 person lift Measurements are 30kgs h74cm x w56cm x d37cm This thing is hella loud I did my whole tour with it (6 Weeks) and did rooms up to 300 people with no PA support and my 400+ never went above 5 Monz is currently selling his 2 4x10's because his 2x12 gives him everything he needs and he plans to get a second. Is it as loud as my 8x10, no but the difference is 2x12 amp on 5, 8x10 amp on 3 and I'm really freakin loud as is my band. Never noticed a need for a tweeter it has plenty of highs but if you want one they'll do it, but it will add to the weight and price. Hope this helps
  12. Happy to post it, I'm based in Manchester, also happy for it to be collected by a courier.
  13. Very tempted to stick this in my Valenti over the Aguilar OBP-1 I have there currently
  14. I'll give you a crisp and a tenner for it cheese and onion? or salt an vinegar?
  15. As the Tinman said "If I only had a heart" Yeah I'll see how I go, happily donate the next set of strings and stuff that come off one of my basses if they need those sorts of things?
  16. [quote name='LuvMusic' post='860336' date='Jun 7 2010, 08:54 PM']But does it toast bagels!? [/quote] It gets pretty freakin hot, it's got 6 tubes inside it including preamps valves, all metal casing, it's a great amp and an average grill
  17. Are you getting the AMP or getting rid?
  18. This is being worked on as we speak, just getting JJ's in it I think. Basically my spec was get it working and then we'll take it from there but I think it'll be fully functional and great with the cheaper tubes
  19. Sorry man hopefully it's getting picked up tomorrow. I'll see how my dynacord goes and I might let a really cool JSH, JHS? one go.
  20. Yep and as you will atest you're Alleva's are fairly big so people shouldn't be put off by this not fitting mine as stated my basses are thunderbird/jazz hybrids with 36inch scale necks with 4 in a line headstocks so just huge like a good 5-6inches longer than a standard jazz bass.
  21. For everyone who has enquired here is a pic I have included the pedal for scale. Model is A-10B so it might be 10w, don't know if this makes anyone care, free is free and all :S
  22. Bump, still looking FYI Mono cases won't fit my basses either so really limited to the Harvest at the moment. Cheers
  23. [quote name='51m0n' post='859758' date='Jun 7 2010, 12:37 PM']HAHAHA!!! Tell that to Tony Levin mate [/quote] +1
  24. I think you'll find that it will never be worth the time and effort involved in selling the Peavey, ie it's more cab than people value it at and you won't get anything near as good for the money you'll free up. That being said I'd expect the Ampeg to be the better cab and worth keeping over the Peavey but if space is not an issue and you aren't struggling for £200 and a few months bumping it up on the forum I'd keep both. They have to sound fun together
  25. I'll get one tonight, it's just in a corner in my practice room bit, I'll get it sorted. Cheers
