In the real world the physics of how loudspeakers work render the claims of [i] Frequency Response: 20 Hz to 17 kHz Sensitivity: 98 dB @ 1 W/1 m[/i] totally beyond the realm of possibility. If you could package up all of the bullcrap contained in the Hartke webpage description of the HX 115 you could fertilize a goodly sized farm with it. [/quote] So what are the likely stats of that cab? I tried one a few weeks ago and it sounded great, definitely at the top of my list to buy. I don't need frequency response that low so it doesn't matter, it's the sound I want. It's a great sounding cab but it seems ridiculous for them to lie, I'm not denying that you're right at all, in fact I'm not at all surprised that the claims are untrue given all the competition about. Do alot of manufacturers fiddle their claims then?

FWIW, the Hartke Hydrive 1x15" has a great frequency response all the way down to 20 Hz. It would probably even handle a low F# (or lower) comfortably.

Martin Sims would charge £235 I think. £325 if you want the white stripped beforehand.

It really depends who you go to. What sort of finish do you want? Just a flat colour? [quote name='andy.' post='697396' date='Dec 31 2009, 06:10 PM']Ok, no worries. So how much do you think it would cost?[/quote]

No offence meant but, yes you are kind of. It won't affect the bass at all. If you were to have it repainted with the neck still attached there's a fair chance it may affect the neck. [quote name='andy.' post='697390' date='Dec 31 2009, 06:02 PM']Im just concerned that it may effect the bass..... or am i just being stupid?[/quote]

For dubstep, I'd go Octave, Fuzz, LPF, Chorus. As for the wobble, there's alot of good info in [url="http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=560398"]here[/url][quote name='Jarhead' post='697379' date='Dec 31 2009, 05:55 PM']. Right, I've just formed a new live Drum N Bass/Dubstep trio. What are the recommended effects for this? I know fuzz, chorus and a phaser/flanger, maybe an octaver to hit those really low sub notes. What do I need to get that wobble kind of sound, I figure tremolo, but it'd be good to have one that has an expression pedal to change the rate, any recommendations? Zach[/quote]

Here's mine:

[quote name='The Twickerman' post='695092' date='Dec 28 2009, 07:57 PM']What you're saying then, is that all tremolos are the same?[/quote] In principal, yes. Obviously you can add loads of features. The Lovepedal tremolo is probably the simplest you can get (just a rate control). Features you could potentially add: Tap tempo Depth Wave form Rhythm selection Ratio (w/ tap tempo) Modulation Probably loads more as well.

Tremolo is just a volume-based effect so it shouldn't be any less effective on bass. The only problem I've heard of with Tremolo pedals is that there's sometimes a volume drop when engaged. You should be fine with it.

Pics or it's a Squier . Only kidding, I've heard they're awesome basses. Congratulations, enjoy it.
