[quote name='Musicman20' post='654370' date='Nov 14 2009, 11:46 AM']They do look like damn fine combos. I'd love one If I could afford the extension cab as well.[/quote] First impressions are that it is quite a sensitive speaker load so I'm not convinced that it'll need an extension cab to work in most situations; i.e. when it gets to the point where you need to partner it with an extension cab you should be going through the PA!

[quote name='TheButler' post='654287' date='Nov 14 2009, 10:09 AM']Nooo! Oh well, my wallet thanks thee [/quote] It's not set in stone but this thing ticks a lot of my boxes and the decider will be an A/B with my DB12's and Thunderfunk.

Check here... [url="http://www.warwick.de/modules/produkte/product_list.php?rndtop&list=17056&katID=17057&cl=EN"]http://www.warwick.de/modules/produkte/pro...17057&cl=EN[/url] There is a drop down menu at the top for the rest of the Warwick range and to get an idea of price I'd just stick the model name in Google (selecting UK search) and one of the first few sites will generally be prices from the likes of GAK, Dolhin music, Bass Centre etc. that'll give you an idea of new prices so that you don't get carried away on eBay.

[quote name='Musicman20' post='654023' date='Nov 13 2009, 08:44 PM']Did you pick up a 2x12 combo?![/quote] In a round-about way.

[quote name='~tl' post='644035' date='Nov 3 2009, 12:00 AM']The 2x10 and 2x12 combos use a Class D amplifier rather than the Class AB one in the 1x10 and 1x12... so that could make a difference too.[/quote] Not sure that is right either as the 500w Puma 2x12 has a label indicating that it is class A/B power! edit Did anyone on here get one of the 8ohm 1x12 cabs that can match the width dimensions of the 2x12 combo?

[quote name='~tl' post='647774' date='Nov 6 2009, 11:24 PM']They all do that...[/quote] It appears that they don't 'all' do it! I have one and it mutes the signal completely! [quote name='Musicman20' post='649051' date='Nov 8 2009, 07:51 PM']This hiss seems to be affecting the combos.....hmmm. I wonder what it is.[/quote] Again the hiss isn't affecting 'all' of the combos. I'm hypercritical of humm and noise (other than the racket that I call bass playing) and this 2x12 combo is pretty spot on, no noise!

[quote name='GrayBoy' post='651109' date='Nov 10 2009, 10:33 PM']Thanks for all the comments. Definitely want to get the right one to start with - save a bit of cash in the long run. Will need something that'll handle Foo Fighters covers assuming the drummer is putting in the Taylor Hawkins style effort. Been offered a an [b]Ashdown C110 300 Evo ABM combo for £325 ono[/b] - sound like it'll do me? Cheers Graham[/quote] I assume the C110 300 combo is the 1x10 300w combo... I'm aware of the fact that the combo in question got good reviews when it was released but tbh it is still a single 10" speaker and unless you are using full PA support I'd look at getting a greater speaker displacement if it is going to be projecting your sound without PA. Just my opinion!

Bought some strings from me; top guy to deal with!

[quote name='Mickeyboro' post='649494' date='Nov 9 2009, 10:56 AM']Forget the basses, I'm still getting over the pic of Harry Potter in a wig! [/quote] .... Off!

They are posted elsewhere but to help here they are again! Black shows no stains (beer being the most obvious) and IMHO looks classy... though I quite like the choc colour.

[quote name='Lew-Bass' post='648765' date='Nov 8 2009, 01:52 PM']I've started to get it mate, I turn the amp on and off and it's abit of a lucky dip as to whether it returns or not[/quote] So it isn't just a consistent 'normal' hum... it can go away and then return!

[quote name='jdiddleymspot' post='648568' date='Nov 8 2009, 09:38 AM']Hmm.. A lot of opinions here about the BC. Though, I'm noting that the last post was June 2008 or something. Now we are over a year and a few months later, and the BC is still going. Does anyone have any more recent experience with them? I just bought some gear from them. The bass will take a couple of weeks to be sent from Germany, so I'm hoping it arrives when they say it will. Also, I'm overseas and so will not receive the item until December, the item being stored in my parents house until then. I'll be sure to inform you how my experiences where with them. A little anxious about this whole thing, but I'm really just hoping for the best. They where quite friendly on the phone. J[/quote] Just out of interest, what is it that you've ordered that will take them several weeks to have sent over from Germany?

[quote name='UK Ken' post='648282' date='Nov 7 2009, 06:34 PM']Still wish I could have your SS1 That is a beautiful Wick ![/quote] Never say never! Did you have the Jazzman when we were talking trades... I seem to recall it was some other Ltd Ed Warwick that you had.

Déjà vue Ken. I just PM'd you over on the Warwick forum to say that I recognised the Jazzman as one of my former basses... then I click on this thread.

[quote name='OldGit' post='648145' date='Nov 7 2009, 03:33 PM']Have you been posting wated ads like this for some time? I remember something a few years ago .....[/quote] Rang bells with me... almost a year ago to the day. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=31794&hl=kevin+lang"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...p;hl=kevin+lang[/url] Hope you have some luck finding it this time.

WoT he said ( ) but I think the 'problem' may be compounded by the fact that you are using a MM (my experience with them is that the preamp adds a lot of attack to the fretted note anyway) and playing with a pick.

[quote name='ped' post='647951' date='Nov 7 2009, 11:22 AM']These are one of the best kept secrets IMO - [url="http://www.technicalhifi.com/cats.php?cat=27"]http://www.technicalhifi.com/cats.php?cat=27[/url] 1u, really light, cheap and great. I got an 800w one from eBay for £90, Kiwi got a 1600w one from eBay for £150ish (ours both look the same as the top one on that page, with the light strips, but mine is silver and 'unbranded' If you search for 'Technical Pro' on eBay you might strike lucky. You can but from the US too, because they are switchable voltage.[/quote] Prices look good for what they appear to be but they are a bit cheeky giving the model designation the 'peak' power number. Just seen the 1700 watt jobbie on ebay but it is actually 415w @ 4 ohms!
