  1. Phew, i bought my fender jazz 24 from them at a great price, hope to give them more business one day.
  2. IF this isnt gone by the end of the summer for some strange reason it will be mine.
  3. Sloe down slow down, im no physicist. im 16 just finished the easiest year ever, and a bit slow. Also how to i turn 100 litres into a box, eh stupid question i know, something they dont actually teach you. Also is this still a reflex cabinet. I suppose im saying please explain.
  4. A man called Phil star, well that being his user name, on another website, designed them for me Its 70cmx55cmx40cm on the inside, 154L and it has ports of 9.45cm long and 4 inches wide. Its a bass reflex cab, but i could easily make an infinite baffle cab, which i was also given measurements for, but i hear you loose roundness and warmness in the bottom end, but i could try it and see if i like it. In band practice, we have a single guitarist putting his Gibson Les Paul through a Marshall MG halfstack(yuck), and a very loud drummer, but with my fender rumble although, it wasn't great and the tones i get from my Ashdown are allot better, it was easy to come up underneath everyone else which is sort of what im after, but i end up sounding like Steve Harris all the time, nothing wrong with it but not what i want. I leave the eq fairly flat and quite often engage the low switch and boost the bass on my Bass. The Fane doesn't go that high, i know, but its rounded which i like. Hope that helps Sorry about the late reply, Ive been working fruit picking all day and im wrecked 30 euro for 7 hours work, bloody strawberry's, hopefully ill get a job at the local pool and so might be able to get better speakers, The fane sounds good to my ears, but there may be better ones that could do the job better. EDIT: hears a link to the thread build [url="http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1063283"]http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/forum/showt...d.php?t=1063283[/url] If that helps at all. EDIT EDIT: also it only cost a bit over 100 euro to make this cab, so making another one is no problem if i can it doing what i want.
  5. Its 300 watts at 8 ohms, so its pretty loud.
  6. Ive been looking for a cab for around 300 euro to play with my ashdown mag 600R, because i made my own 1x15 with a Fane 15-425 and although when it was first made i was all excited and thought it was the chiz-diggle or whatever, but ive been struggling to get a useabl;e tone at band practise with, it, its grand at home. So i thought before i go abot changing heads so soon, i should get a nice proper cab i suppose to make sure i dont go wasting money. Im wanting a 4x10 preferably with a tweeter, with a attenuator? So far im come up with a, Peavey tvx 4x10, this has got everything i want on it, but the thing im most confused about is it says 350 watts rms and then 700 watts program handling. Is 700 whats to be trusted at all or is it a marketing scam. Im only going to be putting 300 watts through it so was wondering for future reference. I havent played one so reviews and thoughts would be great. Hartke VX 4x10, also i havent played one, but hear bad things about hartke cabs, i ve played a couple of their heads and liked them. So thoughts again on this would be great. Any other cabs around 300 euro and that can handle 300 watts + at 8 ohms. Also if it does prove to be the head that in the end i cant work, i had played one a couple of times and thats why i bought it, but if it does prove to un-usable to use in a setting, which in the end is most important to me, ill need or want(most likely) a differnt head. The two ive been thinking are a Hartke Lh 500 or a peavey tour 700. THoughts and opinions on all of these would be great. Why cant they make something that just works for anything, why!!! I play a Fender Jazz 24, if thats any help. Thanks Sam H
  7. I have one of these as well and there not bad bass's, i stu hammed mine. Have a bump.
  8. Sorry mate, but 1000 is sort of my top, and thats in pounds so eh its pushing it alot. But any advise on the two bass's i linked.
  9. Right, so ive started DB lesson, I've had about 3 so far, and my teacher is renting me his second DB. Kind enough of him. So ive ben looking on thomann and places to buy one. And was wondering would it be better for me to get something like this [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=390040882286"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=390040882286[/url] its cheaper sounds good, but the price etc is wary you know. But the main bass ive been looking at is [url="http://www.thomann.de/ie/thomann_kontrabass_22_02.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/ie/thomann_kontrabass_22_02.htm[/url] Alot more, no case, no bow etc. But its thomann a trusted company and it does seem, nice with good specs. Is there anywere else, anything else i should look, i have till around the end of june to get something. Im selling a guitar, and two cornets, and trying to get a job. So is it better to go better sooner, or get the cheaper one and then wait till have gone up a few grades and then go for something good. Thanks Sam H
  10. Damn it if only i lived in England, i have a cheap 5 er, which i repainted an modded so its like a Stu hamm bass. It plays really nice actually. I want one of these so Bad. Lovely bass.
  11. I bought an ashdown mag 600 R in the end. A bit disappointing, but it gets the job nicely done. Just winderng how loud is a 100 valve watts turned up.
  12. You have no idea how annoying thisa is, i just bought my amp, and im in Wexford, and im in dublin for the next two weeks. Lovely head, good luck with the sale anyway.
  13. Well, if you really want a tube head, theres been two trace elliot twin vlaves, on ebay recently, there might be more. Around 500 i think they went for.
  14. Youre not going to get a vlave head and cab for 600, you might be able to geet an amoeg v-4 for 600 but thats, it. You could get a hartke vx2x15 and a hartke lh500 for around that much. Its got a nice little tube in the preamp which is really nice.
  15. It sucks mate, it farts out, and sounds really really bad, with anything but clean. Well this is what i thibnk and i like ashdown, i own a mag, but these practise things suck. You would have done alot better with the orange.
  16. Hi guys, i want to make a 2x15, ill post details later, but im using two fane speakers, a passive crossover unit and a 5" driver, if i post all this would someone be able to help with ther size. I want this to be as simple as possible, i also need some help with the tuning of the cab, so if i post all this, will you be able to explain it in laymans terms. Thabnks Sam
  17. Theres one on ebay, with a cab, if you want to check it out. And it has a 3u rack case.
  18. Ya, ithink they only made the 600R one didnt they and not a 300R
  19. If the tuner is still there in a while i might take it off you.
  20. Like 400, a canary mixer and postage. Always wanted one of these, good luck with the sale.
  21. About postage for you, i was messing around with UPS, well for quite a long distance anyway its around 80, just a heads up.
  22. Pmed and do you have an online manual for the preamp and poweramp or know were i could find one.
  23. Ah i would love this, If i wasnt trying to put a rig together i would buy this, Its the cheapest ive ever seen one, Good luck with the sale.
