  1. If you look at my list..... it is indeed a GEAR forum listed under Amps in the same level.
  2. Exacccery. What I said. Everything appears under something else and your home page is customizable so I embellished a little so it would have no possible way of being misinterpreted. And yet FAIL!!!! What he said also makes sense.
  3. I went the other way from violin and mandolin 5ths to bass 4ths. If I wasn't in love with bass I would have given up on day 1. Total brain rewire required for me.
  4. Buying shares in chicken wire manufacturers.
  5. I think you would have less work to do moving stuff, and more traffic, if PA was its own animal IN GEAR section appearing under AMPS and CABS. GEAR -Yabba -Dabba -Basses -Amps and Cabs -PA -Accessories -Other Instruments -Do it like that please.
  6. Wrong place altogether. Guaranteed to not get trafficked nearly as much as it could be if it was next forum past Amps and Cabs on the front page.
  7. You're probably going to play louder with just the 410 because down on the floor the tone isn't getting to your ears. I did a gig with a borrowed 410 in a pub I had played plenty of times with my 215. 'Stage' is just a roped off corner of the room. Could not hear myself without more everything. The shock came when I went out front for a listen and bass was way way too loud. Back on stage, turned it down and made do with knowing I was playing the right notes even if I couldn't hear them properly. Re 410 +115. Both cabs are robust enough to take half of a smx250 so long as you don't go mad on the low EQ. Reduce 30hz to the bottom and leave it there. A powerful modern wunderamp could get you in big trouble as the 410 peacefully drowns out sounds of the 115 turning it's toes up down on the floor.
  8. There's a Quilter 800w amp in the classifieds for you. Beats carrying a 2U power amp, and you can DI off it at the same time. Noon knobs is flat everything just like a power amp but it isn't at all fussy what you feed it from. Originally conceived as a power module for bass players with pedals, they decided it would make a lot more sales as an integrated amp that could also plug a bass in and EQ. Go figure. All things to all bassists so of course sales were slow and it got discontinued in favour of a more EQ model.
  9. If that was bought with proceeds of crime he would really have something to cry about over here.
  10. The fundamental is 30hz and you need a really excellent subwoofer to make any heard. Sending a 30hz sine to your cabs will make a feeble noise that is distortion at 60hz. If you 1st send a 60hz send at just audible volume you will hear nothing at all when you change to 30hz.
  11. Depends on the kid. If they are keen and a suitable scale instrument can found then 8 is old enough. I didn't show interest until I was 9 so that's when I started on violin with a 3/4 size.
  12. I watched the first few minutes. Then I thought you would be better off letting the bass do the talking and gave it away. Never mind the bollox, especially about the hairdo.
  13. My tube amps only get to baby bottle temp so I wonder if you have a fan not working.
  14. The IEM threads could then go in PA instead of Amps and Cabs and make them easier to find also.
  15. Look like Bugera drivers???
  16. Awesome chorus for any money, ie bargain! Mine is 9v. Very lush at 9v so I can only imagine what 18v does. Battery consumption is a heavy 200mA @ 9v so you'll want 18v on tap. In theory two batteries would last twice as long, but cost twice as much. Get the 18v power supply!
  17. The multi posts were gone and now they are back with a vengeance.
  18. The echoes are back.
  19. FB is on the way down. Your band URL is hopefully on the way up.
  20. Have at it. What's the worst that can happen? I'd make it a sub forum of Amps and Cabs as it will steer the same inhabitants to contribute.
  21. Curious how this was resolved pre site update.
  22. @Kiwi what about it? Tumbleweeds is not a good look.
  23. Elf 2x8 is expensive because it uses premium Faital drivers. Don't expect cheaper alternatives to perform the same.
  24. The session I went to for years started as open mic night and morphed into unholy jam night once everyone got used to me. It stayed billed as open mic while everyone referred to it as jam night. I would always ask new folk if they wanted the bass. Some should have said no, the odd ones who didn't know their own material well enough, the ones who couldn't keep time. Imo all open mics should be so lucky as to have a bassist capable of sitting in with randoms grace them with their presence.
  25. Ubass would do a good job of upstaging also, for very little cost.
