  1. [quote name='fretmeister' timestamp='1447508675' post='2908166'] That's why I'm thinking about it! I'm wondering if rosewood is lighter than maple, or whether block inlays weigh less that the wood they carve out to fit them! And if a jazz neck shape, being slimmer, would save a few ounces! [/quote] To be fair, I asked for a weight of around 8.5lbs. So if you specify 7lbs, it'll probably come out at around 5.5lbs :-D
  2. Mine is 7.2lbs.
  3. Yep - it's a Q3.
  4. Still lovin' mine... http://youtu.be/i03gdUnWrrE
  5. Here's a clip from my gig last night of my tweeterless S212. I get enough highs off it for my needs, but YMMV. http://youtu.be/i03gdUnWrrE
  6. I don't regret mine one jot - I'm still in the honeymoon period six months later. And I'll probably get another soon. My poor, dusty, '71P. :-(
  7. If you can ship it, [url="https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100002025970885&sk=photos"]Dave Wilson[/url] is one of the best in the biz. If you're not on Facebook, let me know and I'll hook you up.
  8. [quote name='Kirky' timestamp='1447242080' post='2905991'] Mine has just arrived...not posted photos for a while so let's hope this works... S212 without tweeter with Oxblood cloth. [url="https://flic.kr/p/AmzTbP"][/url] [/quote] Beauty! Sorry to hear Tommy's been non-responsive. That's unusual.
  9. Ah, man. RIP.
  10. Have you tried this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9E_tNz4QMIw
  11. [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1447023297' post='2904285'] ... and in your case, regardless of the power unit used - what would it do that the walkabout doesn't? [/quote] That's a very good point. I guess not - I'd be changing for the sake of it, really.
  12. Probably sensible. The logic for me going without stemmed from my previous experience with tweeters - on my Bergs, for example, dialling out the tweeters left the crossover in the circuit, and I always felt it affected the natural roll-off of the drivers. Whether it's the same with the TKS I don't know, but as there's no crossover in there, I know the drivers are getting the full range.
  13. They were bloody dangerous.
  14. It's a great clip - it's popped up in here just recently.
  15. [quote name='Passinwind' timestamp='1446930916' post='2903644'] Since this amp is the among the very first releases to use the newest ICE module, your wait should only be five years or so. [/quote] Heh... yeah, that's the problem. I dunno - I might really like this when I hear it, but (as we've chatted about via PM) it needs to be a real advance from what I've heard already to ring my bell...
  16. I admit I'm tempted by this, but from what I've read there's been no great advance in the spec of the power section, so.. I think I'll hang on for the next generation of modules to come through.
  17. I have no issue with him playing around with the groove and going nuts, but his timekeeping is pretty shoddy in places.
  18. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1446888592' post='2903148'] At least he can play more or less in time, which is a huge plus if you ask me. [/quote] It's the 'more or less' bit that surprises me...
  19. It's a promo. It's about showing off. it's a good idea and it's well shot. But he's all over the shop. In the end I wasn't sure wether to listen to the drum part or the backing track.
  20. I wonder if the power section is one of the usual ICE modules everyone else uses at the moment..?
  21. Yep - one nicely responsive page is all you need.
  22. Just go to Maruszczyk and get it over with...
  23. A great, distinctive groove courtesy of Fleetwood & McVie. Who cares if it's the same all the way through? What a tune!
