I still haven't seen any direct evidence but there is a suspicion that the current operator has only changed names. Some time back one Mick Mason, a semi known bassist of some semi known 80's tribute band, was convicted of fraud using the same M.O. and the same 'product line' to hook the same fish. Either it's a copycat or Mason himself. I shouldn't have have accused Mason without actual evidence.

The direction the bass amp is pointed has next to zero impact on how much boom reaches the neighbours.

Sadly, Google has lost its mojo in totality then. Once upon a time you could find anything with a few cunning / choice keywords. RIP Google.

If you wouldn't mind, please have a crack at Google Advanced Search. It used to be that you could drill right down into a forum thread by copying in the url of the thread to the ''domain'' and Bob was your hairy arsed Auntie.

The fact that bass cabs have gotten a whole lot lighter in recent years, to the point where the ones that gave rise to to the meme can be hard to give away let alone sell.

There must be an ever increasing number of original owners kicking the bucket. That will put more and more vintage ones on the market. So then we need to consider if we can run out of dentists who like to decorate their walls with our precious.

A cover band once needed a sub bassist mid gig on new year's eve. The incumbent had girlfriend problems of apparently the highest order and exited leaving the lead guitarist having to take up bass, and failing, badly. This being the biggest gig in the city it would not do so yours truly being sober as a judge in those days volunteered and was gleefully handed the trusty P. Some tunes I knew back to front, others only from the radio, nailed it, who was that masked man?

Probably just needs a buffer for his PA to accept your piezo. Some tuners would do that. Anything else you have laying around that can do a full clean blend?

Hell no.

I believe it may be possible for you to speed it up by prearranging customs payment on the basis of your invoice for amp plus shipping, and the shipment ID.

Not true. Many shift workers could tell you what shift they are on way further than 2 months out.

Each time someone new gets done someone needs to get down to the pub where Mason goes and record him mouthing off about his latest sucker. Sooner or later we'll have him on video with the exact amount.

Blank plate, job done.

Sounds like the heart wants to be involved in music again but the head isn't cooperating. Now is definitely the time for career changes what with all the fallout from covid.

BDDI Deluxe is a good option. Soundguys all know the DI will come out static free so don't baulk at unplugging theirs.

I wouldn't risk it. Fixing what isn't broken can lead to heartbreak. You know it's going to pound your kidneys when you plug it in!

The amp bit might even be inverted.

I was a violinist before taking up the bass at age 25. It didn't even occur to me to retune the bass to 5ths. It did take more than 5 minutes to adjust, but less than 5 days.

You mean a trailer!

Yerp. Duct tape a mess of cardboard over/around with a hole so a determined finger can still switch it. Job done.

Yet if you fail to hear the cab complaining about additional transient peaks coming through you could find you have a silent cab.

There's a well priced Genzler 350 in the classifieds. 500 v 350 isn't really here nor there unless you are in the habit of running your Hartke hard out just to hear yourself.

Too many people enquiring about Harley Bentons?
