    Do it - it will be bloody lovely. I used to run my RM800 through one or two BF Super Compacts (the 1x12 cabs) and it was thunderous.

    Great rig - these RM amps really are rather lovely IMO
  3. Cheers! Saves my wallet/testicles/marriage then
  4. Lovely 34” scale I presume?
  5. If you don’t manage to trade this I’d be very interested in buying
  6. This year? And last Mean, I know. I’ve been as bad with amps and cans in the past
  7. That he does. I think they have an earlier ABM head as one of their test sources actually, though I may be wrong on that. IME the ABM pairs brilliantly with both the Super Compact and the various xTen cabs
  8. Have to say, Ashdown amps into Barefaced cabs is the best gear combination I’ve ever had, and like @Stofferson I’ve had A LOT over the years.
  9. Sounds possible. Any excuse for GAS, eh?! Do it...
  10. Lovely! Classy, understated. Nothing like my rigs 🤣
  11. Pantera tends to work to remove the missus from the room
  12. Yes, yes you can
  13. Point 3 has to be a winner!
  14. Two10. More modular
  15. Just bought an fx unit from Gareth, as ever a very quick and easy deal, excellent packing and comms
  16. Volume control position has no bearing on the wattage being produced Different manufacturers use different types of potentiometer so sometimes you get all the volume in the first third of the movement, for example. It's not in any way a reliable method of saying "I was using half power" I'm afraid. And watts don't equal volume either. Sorry, pedant coat removed... Back OT... I've gigged an Elf with a single Barefaced Super Compact (1x12", no tweeter) in a busy pub with a loud rock band and no PA support. It handled it... just. No headroom left but it coped and filled the room
  17. I think it's this one you need: https://www.amazon.co.uk/AmazonBasics-Male-Mini-B-Cable-Feet/dp/B00NH11N5A EDIT - to answer the actual question it's a USB Mini-B
  18. Pre-Gibson. Gibson took over when Trace already had the SM/SMX range out (the successors to the Series 6 like you have here). They eventually replaced these with the SMC/GP12 ranges. Then destroyed the company, blah blah....
  19. Cheers fella! No idea where you are in the country but if you’re anywhere near Surrey you’re welcome to come and give the amp a spin when we’re allowed to mingle again
  20. That’s my CTM100 though a Barefaced Four10, nothing in the PA except vocals. Two loud guitars, loud drummer. Bass is fitted with Nordstrand Big Splits, which are a bit like a P pickup in a fat J housing. Sort of. This clip it’s just the neck pickup on full, and me hammering away in a ham-fisted fashion with a plectrum. Hopefully gives a vibe of what the CTM100 can do. I bloody love it. Can’t justify it but bloody love it
  21. Never come across this lot before. Lovely stuff.
  22. I like Load, it’s got a special place in my heart as it reminds me of a trip to the Czech Republic, but I totally understand the older fan base being alienated. And let’s face it, it’s not in the top 5 Metallica records!
