  1. [quote name='such' timestamp='1382004943' post='2246539'] ok, I have to ask this: anyone has an idea how would two 112's compare to, say, two Aguilar SL112's in everyday life? Like, small rock/jazz/funk gigs? [/quote] FWIW, my 112's would absolutely own a small rock/jazz/funk gig with regards to volume and headroom. To be honest, a single cab would probably suffice. I have absolutely no experience with the Aggie SL's, so I can't comment on them.
  2. The 1126 has port at the front. The new 112 is rear-ported - is that what you're thinking of?
  3. Just nicked this from the TKS Facebook page - the new 1126's will have a top bar handle instead of a strap handle... nom nom nom!
  4. [quote name='borisbrain' timestamp='1381933785' post='2245702'] Does this help? BB [attachment=146258:dpbass.jpg] [/quote] I'm fairly sure these weren't used during the TV years. Could be wrong, mind...
  5. [quote name='Marc S' timestamp='1381925892' post='2245518'] Jools had Seasick Steve on the show Never heard anything quite like it before! [/quote] There's a certain irony in that comment...
  6. [quote name='Marky L' timestamp='1381915586' post='2245257'] I'm begining to think that the Precision only had the Fender logo, where has the Jazz had both Fender and Jazz Bass on it. [/quote] I'm pretty sure this is the case...
  7. [quote name='arthurhenry' timestamp='1381855130' post='2244604'] This is the version of the track which was released in America back in the day. It's a lot faster and not as good as the "proper" version. I've no idea why they choose to play it live. [/quote] I did not know that - I'll have to have listen. Ta for the info.
  8. [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1381843282' post='2244414'] Just played back the original after watching some of the YouTube clips... It sounds soooo slow. Although most of the live stuff does seem so fast that they are having problems playing it a lot of the time. [/quote] Yeah. It has a groove which was totally absent from the live version...
  9. [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1381842130' post='2244394'] Hats off to any band that can effectively incorporate yodelling into a track. [/quote] Ah, they've got nowt on Frank Ifield... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKB_UnEwAJM
  10. I watched them on telly a few months ago - it was a recording from a festival down south somewhere (High Voltage?). I couldn't believe the performance of Hocus Pocus. It sounded like the whole band just wanted to be somewhere else, as soon as possible. It was about 3000000mph.
  11. [quote name='KevB' timestamp='1381750133' post='2243059'] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMxr7LvoJ7s [/quote] [Pedant mode ON] No pedals :-)
  12. Calm down, everyone. It's just young band doing young band stuff with, from what I can see, the bass player's agreement.
  13. [quote name='skychaserhigh' timestamp='1381739052' post='2242884'] Over 30lbs is too heavy for bass gear ? Blimey , that cuts down your options just a bit..... [/quote] Not any more....
  14. And if you can do without the 'pedal' bit, Santo & Johnny: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1st_9KudWB0"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1st_9KudWB0[/url]
  15. Sneaky Pete Kleinow... mint. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BITiY8M_oDo"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BITiY8M_oDo[/url]
  16. This is a strange thread. Most brands have loyal customers. Why are Barefaced are being singled out?
  17. [quote name='ambient' timestamp='1381616513' post='2241553'] Once or twice, now I find doing 10 minutes of yoga 4 or 5 times a week prevents it. [/quote] Hopefully you won't, but if you get it properly your opinion might well change..
  18. The rat fur on my Bergantinos always looked tidy, 'cos I looked after them. Mind you... Having an anonymous black box behind you that sounds great is one thing. Having a beautiful looking cab behind you that sounds great is even better.
  19. [quote name='Prime_BASS' timestamp='1381550935' post='2240585']And for anyone who plays with a PA and uses a DI, your cab is about as important as the 'tone' a 9v battery gives you over a new fan dangled power supply. [/quote] Nonsense.
  20. [quote name='mcnach' timestamp='1381518717' post='2240307'] This would be relevant if you could buy a new 1961 Fender Jazz in 2013... [/quote] I'm fairly certain it was meant in jest...
  21. [quote name='Geek99' timestamp='1381499116' post='2239918'] Tort or black plate ? Not easy to see [/quote] You need to turn the brightness up on your monitor. :-) Tort.
  22. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1381488886' post='2239712'] Here's my guess: Listening to one brand against another in isolation (possibly in a shop) is no way indicative of how those cabs are going to sound at a gig in a band situation and at battle levels [/quote] Absolutely. A bass cab is only any use to me when it's in a mix. I try and reserve final judgement on them until I've tried them in a few different live situations.
  23. Another FWIW... I adore Bergantino. Beautiful cabs. I used HS210s for a number of years, then HT112/ER stack, and then to the TKS. The TKS felt like home. Sold the Bergs. Never regretted it.
  24. FWIW, I've gigged a Compact, a Vintage and a ceramic prototype that probably isn't going into production. Enjoyed all of 'em.
  25. [quote name='pietruszka' timestamp='1381439727' post='2239278'] I'd strongly recommend looking at TKS cabs. My personal experience is they have far more thicker, fuller and beefier bottoms end. Not to mention cheaper if you go for the ceramic ones. The build quality is outstanding as well and their range is more an options list and you build your cabs from that. WoT has 2 and loves them, like I say, from personal experience the tks wipes the floor with many other 112's. If not all! Dan [/quote] Yip - [i]absolutely[/i] worth a look.
