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

Trade you my Hofner for Betty, Bob

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.

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.

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

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

I'll give you a crisp and a tenner for it cheese and onion? or salt an vinegar?

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?

Are you getting the AMP or getting rid?

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

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.

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

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
