  1. Need to raise some funds and have pretty much exclusively been using my old and heavy Bassman 100 at rehearsals and gigs so this one is reluctantly up for sale. It's a great piece of kit as the many threads on them in this forum attest. Everything from beautiful clean tone to full-on valve-driven crunch, all easily dialled in due to the straightforward controls. 900w at 4 Ohms, 500w at 8 Ohms. Spec here: http://www.genzbenz.com/?fa=detail&mid=2663&sid=675&cid=95 This one has the same blue light issue which has been frequently discussed - sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It has absolutely no effect on the tone. Gig bag is a TC Electronic one (GAK had no GB ones when I bought this from them so they threw this in!) - it's the right size with loads of useful pockets. It's £350 posted or £330 collected / meetup. I live in Leeds and am up and down the M1 to Milton Keynes several times a month so can easily arrange a meet somewhere en route.

  2. Brilliant amp - and going for a song too! Another "if I had the money" from me, but have a bump. Someone is going to be seriously delighted (and deafened) when they get their hands on this.
  3. So a bit of feedback from last night's rehearsal: First impressions from the rest of the band: fear. Both guitarists use AC30s and they were definitely worried about keeping up with this. Obviously I wasn't going to just deafen them for the sake of it, but it was gratifying to put them on their toes. In terms of volume, I was a tiny bit apprehensive that this would need more power from my amp than the Super 12 as that was a 4 ohm cab capable of handling 1200w, and this one is an 8 ohm cab capable of handling 1000w. I was also thinking that if I did have to push the amp harder it would break up sooner at the same volume (does this make sense?). I needn't have worried. I left the amp settings all the same as I had with the Super 12 and the 410 was actually slightly louder, so much so that I had to turn it down slightly to get to the right volume. Absolutely no concerns about this cab being able to handle any volume requirements i might have for it. The tone is fantastic. Definitely different from the Super 12, but the only way I can describe it is even more full and warm. I am really really happy with this cab. Sorry, Lozz!
  4. Gonna be using mine at decent volume tonight at band practice. I will report back on how it compares to the Super 12...
  5. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1461404492' post='3034331'] Either you need to wash that Bassman cloth or dirty up the Barefaced cloth... [/quote] Lol I reckon you're right.
  6. Mine arrived yesterday. Only had a quick 10 mins with it at low volume but it sounds really really nice. I'm looking forward to band practice on Weds very much. Here's what it looks like with a 40 yr old Fender Bassman on top. A very cute half stack IMO. [attachment=217622:barefaced410.jpg]
  7. I've ordered one! Apparently I have number 3 (Jah Wobble has 1 and 2). Excited!

    feedback for Deedee

    Just adding to Dan's positive feedback. Sold a cab to him - great comms, real pleasure to deal with, extremely smooth transaction. Hope it sounded great at the gig on Saturday night, fella!
  9. Now sold pending the usual.
  10. All PMs replied to.
  11. Dan just bought an Epiphone Thuderbird Classic IV Pro from me. Absolutely flawless transaction - super fast payment, great comms, absolute pleasure to deal with.
  12. PMs replied to.
  13. [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1459432316' post='3016528'] I had one of the first SuperTwelve cabs, but I don't remember being offered a an upgrade to a Super 12V. That's the one with the built-in battery, right? [/quote] That's the one. Bit difficult to try and squeeze into a pedal, mind...
  14. Just dipping my toe in the water here as I'm toying with moving up a level on the Barefaced front (Retro 6 Ten) and wanted to see how quickly this one might move so I'm not cabless for too long (if that makes sense). I've had my Super 12V since new (bit of a wait for it back in the day) but my God it's been amazing. Such lovely clear tones and punch and also a one-handed lift (only 18kg)! It also has wheels if you're too lazy to carry it. Tremendous cab and can't recommend highly enough. If funds weren't an issue I would be hanging on to it. Photo below, but plenty more available if people want. Comes with Roqsolid cover and in great condition. Any questions let me know. Cheers! Dan [attachment=215850:IMG_1321.JPG] Here's the spec for this cab from the Barefaced site... http://barefacedbass.com/product-range/super-twelve.htm
  15. +1 for the VBA 400. Insanely lovely and powerful amp. Just a shame it broke the rear suspension on my car. And many of my vertebrae.
  16. Still here! Open to offers...
  17. Every time I've plugged the cab in I've thought "these inputs are the same - it doesn't matter which one I put the lead into" but each time I've plugged it into the normal socket, not the extension...
  18. I doubt there's any chance of that! When you say less power does that equate to less volume? I'm guessing it's not quite as simple as that...
  19. I think that's what I always thought. Does that mean if I were to use an 8ohm cab on its own I would be getting less out of the amp?
  20. I have a question about my 70's Fender Bassman. It has two speaker outputs and underneath them it says "TOTAL LOAD 4 OHMS". Does this mean each output is 8 Ohms? I have been using a 4 Ohm cab through a single output for years with no issues. Would it be better to use an 8 Ohm cab? I am genuinely confused...
  21. Ahem *cough* [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/277692-epiphone-thunderbird-classic-pro-iv-gibson-pups/"]http://basschat.co.u...iv-gibson-pups/[/url] Mint condition with a fitted Epiphone hard case...
