  1. It's amazing how "straight" it sounds in isolation - doesn't swing at all.
  2. Tidy. I haven't given it a good run at volume yet, but it doesn't lack for anything at modest volumes. Even the low B sounds full. Two would be most excellent. 🤘
  3. I'd be happy to sell you a set, if you want to try them out.
  4. Slightly off topic, but I also nabbed a used Markbass Little Marcus 250 from the Ashdown Reverb store. It'll be a great, cheap backup!
  5. If you speak to CME througn the Reverb messaging system they will adjust the shipping down to a much more sensible price.
  6. I remember my first "proper" amp was the Trace Elliot Series 6 1215 combo. Weight a ton, but it was loud as hell and sounded fantastic. I added a Multistack 1x15 and that made it even more incredible. I then replaced the combo with the GP1225V combo. My back doesn't miss Series 6 Trace stuff, but I remember the tone was pretty damn good!
  7. +1 pn that. I've used Carl a couple of times and he's been first class.
  8. Why not ask the man himself? Paging @neilmurraybass.
  9. Just picked up the last OR-110 cab. Should work nicely with my Little Stubby 👍
  10. If the range does grow, both extra long and through body sets would be fab
  11. Still available, and to confirm that this cab is a late production Series I spec.
  12. Similar, but not quite the same. "Old School" is pretty much the same as the VLE found on the Litte Mark range but with slightly different EQ points, whereas the "Millerizer" function is a band pass filter than only passes frequencies between 5 and 12kHz.
  13. That's stunning. Enjoy. I love that Paul changed hardly anything in the design when he took over from Pete.
  14. A bit off topic, and it might just be me, but wouldn't Blue Snake Trace be a good name for a rock band?
  15. Bought a set of strings from Kris. Super smooth deal. Thank you!
  16. So, initial impressions are excellent. The cab feels really well put together: It’s crazy light, 11kg is just insane for something this big! Metal corners and grille. A sort of medium pile carpet finish. Not sure how robust it’ll be, but time will tell. The rear panel is recessed in the same way as the front, so the speakon connectors have a little bit of protection. The cab has an 11cm port in the bottom. The cable and connectors inside look very heavy duty. Big thick feet to give it good clearance. The sound is wonderful. Full, rich bass, plenty of mids and just nice warm highs. As I said in an earlier post, I went without a tweeter as it goes to 6.5k with the 10", which is fine for me. It’s a perfect match for my fretless, as I hoped it would be. Hans says if it gets too boomy in a room the port can be plugged to tame it. Here are a few dodgy pics. I will take more when I can get it out in the sunshine.
  17. I have two of Dave's superb cables for sale, both made with the heavy duty 4mm Klotz cable. The cables have had very little use. Right angle Speakon to straight jack (flexible part of the cable is 43cm) Speakon to right angle jack (flexible part is 64cm) £12 posted for each, or £22 posted the pair To show you how much beefier these cables are, here is one next to the more typical 2.5mm speaker cable.
  18. My cab arrived today. It's beautifully made, sounds fantastic, and weighs 11kg! Review later.
