Its on the bucket list for most bass players, do it once in your life, I have (410 mind, not 810) and no regrets!

Sorry, slightly Geeky question here! Does anyone know the difference between these two speakers? I believe the Mk 1's were made in Italy as opposed to the Mk3 which are made in China? Different drivers? Neo vs ferrite? The reason being Ive seen some second hand mk1's for sale at only £150 less than a new pair of MK 3's at Thomman. We desperately need to upgrade our speakers as we get constant complaints that the punters can't hear our singer (although I think thats a bit of a blessing) Thanks chaps

Great review, really enjoyed that, thanks!

I met this great guy in Mansons yesterday who told me he's looking for a bass player to complete a trad reggae band in Devon. Anyway heres the ad, dont reply to me! Im a regular pub band rock covers guy! https://www.lemonrock.com/smalladsingle.php?id=16172

if he's the bloke with his own wiki page, then he sounds like a right arrogant tw*t, get shot and move on, plenty of fiddle players in cornwall, along with mandolinn and bodhran, cant move for em! Seriously, drinking before a gig is a big no no, especially if you're getting paid.

Brilliant, thank you!

Rob from Ramp Audio Repair does all Mansons valve repairs and he did a great job sorting and revalving my CL 01392 861216, just outside Exeter, but be prepared to wait for it.... https://www.facebook.com/RampAudio/

just make sure its Harris Tweed mind.... that would last forever!

Hi all I was thinking my 410 HLF was sounding very dark, almost wooly even with judicious use of mids and highs from the head and it got me to thinking the horn had blown. Then I see theres a couple of lightbulb "fuses" in the crossover to protect it! I know this thread has been covered elsewhere but does anyone know what type of bulbs they are, and can I order them somewhere rather than from Ampeg Direct? I suspect they may be J6 and J7 car bulbs but I could be very wrong!!! Thanks.

would never take a spare cab, I have DI out on my preamp pedal so if the speaker, or more likely, the amp were to blow, I just DI to the PA. Surely everyone plays with a PA right?

Got Heft????
