  3. Mine now. Cheers George, tis a lovely thing. I've started a feedback thread for you and...well... thanks a lot Bud, I'm super chuffed...Sounds Proper Like !! Pete.
  4. Hey all, I'm not sure if George has a feedback thread, I've done a search and not found one so here goes. I met up with George at his place tonight and came home with a Barefaced Big One. Oooeeerr Missus. I found George to be an absolutely smashing chap to chat and deal with and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to any one here on BC or elsewhere for that matter. Thanks George, Super chuffed with the Big Wan !! Pete.
  5. Good on ya dude, it's way too good of a Bass to sell for £500.
  6. Hi There, Sorry Bud but it's bought and paid for. Off to it's new home in the morning.
  7. Hey Folks, the cab is now sold Cheers.
  8. Hi Folks, I've reluctantly decided to sell this, my dream cab as I need a taller two cab set up and my current head won't go down to 2ohms. In a nutshell I'm deaf in my left ear and the right one ain't perfect and I've found that with single cabs the sound is going past me before I've heard it. I used to own the ND210S and loved it but that was sat up top in a 2 x 210 vertical arrangement. I was hoping the 410 would be the one cab solution for me but alas. There's plenty written about how good these cabs are, in fact all of the range from Tech so I don't need to harp on about how good it is, suffice it to say it's very good indeed. Specs are 4x10+tweeter,1200watts, 103db, 32 - 20,000hz and 4ohms, h 30" x w 21" x d17", weighs in at 53lb Condition wise, the carpet covering is perfect, the grille has 1 very slight dink at the very bottom of the cab. I'd like £400 ( firm ) for the cab collected or I'll happily meet up within reason or pack it up for the buyer to arrange collection. I'm not looking for trades as there is something I have my eye on. If that sells then I'll be withdrawing this one. Here's a link to the stock image, I'll post pics of the cab later today. Cheers folks. [url="http://www.tech-soundsystems.de/eng/10er/410.html"]http://www.tech-soun...g/10er/410.html[/url]
  9. Hi Folks, I basically bought this cab for an audition and it's now surplus too. Six weeks old and pretty much as new and used at home since it's one and only outing. No scuffs or marks etc. Great sounding warm cab, 300watts @ 8 ohms £210 delivered in original box and including GK's Speakon lead for Bi-amping or regular use. £45 less than a new one. Please don't ask for it to be £200, I gotta post it !! I got the gig btw. pics shortly
  10. PM'd re top amp in pic....... Just to get it in there like
  11. Where are you based dude Edit, Spotted it. Does anyone know how this compares to a Techsoundsysyems ND410S ?
  12. The build quality on my 08 44-02 is flawless, I can't find a single fault on it anywhere. Lovely Bass
  13. Here's yours truly with my Brothers Carvin. I've no idea what model it is tho' Luckily...Mt Sister lives in San-Diego so my Bro' commissioned this Bass and had it sent to hers... It then came to Blighty as a...erm..."Birthday Present. It's a cracking bass to play and it sounds really good too, not too shabby in the looks dept either.
  14. Cheers Guys, Thanks for all the replies, it's very much appreciated and some food for thought. The room was approx 50 to 60ft long by about 30ft wide, barn conversion type room with a pretty high gable roof. A big area to fill with just a 410 I guess. My tone is usually scooped but I boosted the mids on the AH200's graphic eq to try and compensate. I've only ever played pub gigs before and in fairly small rooms and the Trace/Tech combo is usually fantastic. I've spoken to the guys today and as we have a (pub) gig this weekend albeit in a large room we're going to give my old thumpers a dust off to see if it helps. Thanks a lot guys, you've all been a great help.
  15. There was a chap on the other day looking for a set of Ibanez Sweetheart jobbies if that helps.
  16. Hi Dan, Sorry Bud, I should have been a bit more specific. I have 2/3/4 way crossover and a power amp for my passive jobbies. With my Blues band I tend to just use my own JBL's with 15's in them and that's usually fine for pub gigs, The Mackie's belong to the Wedding Band. What puts me off using my subs is the size and weight of the damn things hehe. It would be handier if the we could get a decent single powered one.... to save my back if nothing else. We have a gig this coming weekend in a fairly large pub so I might just have to bite the bullet and take 'em along for a try out. Cheers.
  17. Hi Guys, Thanks all for the replies, Bremen, My cab was backed up, as close as the speakon would allow to a solid stone wall but It didn't cross my mind to try it without the Gramma to be honest. We were very rushed setting everything up so we basically had 10 minutes to soundcheck and tweak once the PA was up and running. Next time I'll try that. Stu and Dan, Like you say, I think Subs will be the order of the day for the future. I have two passive ones but they're massive and very heavy. I'll keep dropping hints that we ought to buy a powered Sub for the bigger rooms. I was worried about going through the PA as we just had the pair of 12's, I didn't want to get in the way of the vocals etc. I'll be cranking the Bass from now on until we get one hehe Cheers Guys. Pete.
  18. Hi Folks, Being a relative newcomer to Wedding/Function type gigs (in larger rooms than your average pub gig affair) I had a wee problem last night with my sound. We were on a 18" high wooden stage, I used a P Bass, Trace AH200 and my trusty Tech ND410S on a Gramma Pad, No PA Support. We used a pair of powered Mackie 12's for the PA, no subs. I had a great stage sound with good volume but when I went out front to the end of my 6m cable the Bass had pretty much disappeared. I added some more volume but it did'nt really have any affect out front. I didn't have any boom at all just no volume, weird ! I tried moving my cab around with no detectable differences. The room was a large barn conversion type deal with the high pointy ceiling and beams etc, not many punters. Is this normal in this scenario and how am I best approaching this in the future ? We were payed well so I'd like to do my best and have a good sound in future. Thanks for any tips and advice, Pete.
  19. Back at ya Paul. It's quite a bit lighter in colour than in the photo's. It's crap light ATM and no flash on the Ipad.
  20. Hi Bud, You have a PM. I have the one you want, you have the one I want, Turmeric, yummy !
  21. You're a lucky man !! Sounds great to me.......I'm still on the search for mine.
  22. Met up with Tom tonight to collect my Lakland of him. What an absolute gent, as GustOo says, a nicer person you just could not meet. I've dealt with Tom previously as well and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. Absolute top chap. Thanks Tom, Pete.
  23. I just got a set of nickels and prefer them to the last set of Sunbeams I bought. I didn't think I'd ever say that ! They feel nice under the fingers and sound good to me. I'm looking forward to when they're nicely warn in.
