[quote name='Raggy' post='1292384' date='Jul 4 2011, 04:29 PM']Big Block Precision perhaps?[/quote] Spot on! Thanks. Don't suppose you've heard one? I can't really remember now except that it worked well!

I was doing sound for a band last night and the bassist brought in a Fender Precision that had only one pickup and it was in the bridge position and looked somewhat like a musicman pickup, albeit with covered poles rather than open like an EB. It was black with a matching black headstock like an Aerodyne. Can anyone point me to the model or have any comments? I quite like the musicman sound, but not the look really!

[quote name='alexclaber' post='1291957' date='Jul 4 2011, 11:25 AM']It would normally. But it's either 500W into a cab that's 98dB sensitivity (@ 100Hz) or 250W into a 98dB sensitivity cab plus 250W into a 89dB sensitivity cab. 98dB + 500W = 125dB (98dB + 250W = 122dB) + (89dB + 250W = 113dB) = ~123dB That's in the lows. Who knows what is going on higher up because isobaric designs are normally only used for bass (i.e. true woofer & subwoofer) purposes![/quote] I thought you were talking about running the compact on it's own on 4 ohms as well, meaning it'd be getting 250W either way!

[quote name='alexclaber' post='1291927' date='Jul 4 2011, 11:07 AM']I'll be interested to hear the results of that! I suspect that using the SP212 and Compact together will be quieter than the Compact on its own. If it isn't then there's probably something funny going on with the impedance switch.[/quote] But surely the same wattage going into 2 cabs will be louder than 1 due to moving more air? (put in a very simple way!)

[quote name='bozzie' post='1288061' date='Jun 30 2011, 06:15 PM']I dont mean to be funny, but does the title not say 1x10? although for a 2x10 its is cute.[/quote] You do indeed say 1x10, however the SP210 isn't exactly a normal 2x10 is it? Same size as a 1x10, yet much better sounding!

What happened to his old band? [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZafczuvx1s"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZafczuvx1s[/url]

You could look at the Orange SP210?

[quote name='lojo' post='1286776' date='Jun 29 2011, 06:24 PM']You mention trade in, are they carry a lot of second hand ? I am local and mean to check it out, but TBH I don't really need to see a wall of brand new basses as I prefer them already chipped [/quote] We have some pre-owned stuff on the wall that we've got through part-exchanges but we mostly sell new instruments. I'm really happy to hear you enjoyed the store and service I hope you won't be the only one!

It says no international orders so it's US only?

I've lost the high-bid status. Do I bid again? It'll probably still be a good deal but do I really need ANOTHER rig?

DTR-1000 or DTR-2000 would probably be right up your street then!

Gibson Thunderbird Short Scale? If I wasn't happy with long-scale then I would!

Shame about the price eh? If it were actually in the right price range then it'd be an instant seller!

Think I might have to get involved on the bidding front... EDIT: Have stuck a bid in, hope I manage to get it!

Use a DI from your bass, rather than your amp. Then use a microphone in front of your cab. A combination of these two will give an amazing sound! Sansamp is the definite recommendation for DI, and for the microphone either; Shure Beta 52, AKG D112 or Sennheiser e602 (My personal preference is e602).

Are you still interested in my SP210? I'm free most of this week if you will be coming to epsom.

[quote name='Sibob' post='1281780' date='Jun 25 2011, 05:37 AM']Hi guys, Just wanna keep this quick, I don't want this to turn from a 'new job' thread into a commercial concern, so from now on, if you have any stock enquiries, please PM Bankai directly rather than on the open forum. If guitarguitar are interested in paid advertising etc, then they can contact Ped. Cheers, and congrats on the new job Si[/quote] Sorry If anybody has any questions send me a PM and I'll try and answer them there, or if you're going to be coming in store some day then let me know and I'll keep an eye out for you!
