  1. Yup it’s not bad at all, reminds me of a cross between ash and alder. I’m sure someone with more knowledge will give me a better comparison!
  2. @Cosmicrain is flying through this - more progress shots! Body contoured and edges rolled, rear cavity finished off and the neck screw holes are done. The basic neck blank is cut and now we await the pickups to do the routing for them
  3. You may have gathered my phone is helpfully posting the images in reverse order.....
  4. More pics! Mike said he needs the Nordstrand pickups in the next fortnight or so, so I’ve chased Bass Direct (I did a big order because of two other projects I’ll show off next year!) - here’s hoping they get them soon...
  5. Chris, I’ll look after all the ones you decide you don’t need 😎
  6. Some pictures of wood! Basically it’s just the body blank being stuck together and one pic shows the template with the pickup positions too. Mike has done all the internal work on this as well now so all the wiring cavities and control cavity are carved
  7. Pure class, this. Lovely bass
  8. Nice!
  9. The One10s sound anything but thin, in my experience
  10. Nice article! I remember the first Big One being loaded into the boot of my Ford Focus, delivered by Alex on an excursion from his day job at the time. Apart from a dalliance away with Ashdown when I needed some cash I’ve been a BF user since 2010 and absolutely love their Super Compact and One10 cabs. Happy birthday Barefaced
  11. Agreed, Ashdown got this range spot on IMO
  12. Gorgeous bass Ralph
  13. See There aren’t too many spoilers in there but I can tell you that the Live Aid bit is awesome 😎
  14. Looks like a direct competitor to the Trace Elliot Elf & 2x8 cab doesn’t it!
  15. It’ll kick donkey with the BB2, just be aware that you may need to adjust the tweeter to suit. I run an ABM EVO through a Super Compact and it is glorious and creamy and phat.
  16. PS, this is a bloody lovely bass, very very nice and elegant
  17. Agreed! It set me on a path with Alan too, I currently own two but did have a third, and I have a stupendously awesome Finn spec in my head for early next year too 😎
  18. That’s next week’s brain fad 😎
  19. Yup. Ove done similar things. It’s just the way it goes. My latest idea is to sell the greatest cab I’ve ever own (3 times at that!) just because I fancy some tens instead of a single 12. Head -> wall.
  20. Nice!
  21. Agreed
  22. Sounds like a fun project! I’ll be keeping an eye on this
  23. Bought my tickets yesterday, thanks for the heads up! Anyone else gonna be there? I can annoy the wife and leave her whilst we all talk bass 😎
  24. I just bought a Little Bastard and that’s more than enough for my needs at the mo. I’d love to have both but sadly 4 amps is a little overkill 😂
