More prog metal maybe, but have a listen to these guys - [url="http://deeexpus.co.uk/"]http://deeexpus.co.uk/[/url] - their current and previous bass players are both members on here. I've had a number of attempts over the years at getting prog bands going. Not only do some of the musicians tend to be on the "challenging" side ( ) but even if you get as far as putting a set together very few venues are interested, and if you do get a gig nobody comes to see you! One of the last prog gigs I saw locally to me (Newcastle upon Tyne) was Pendragon*, supported by DeeExpus (see above). Both bands were utterly outstanding, but there was an audience of about 30 people, including both bands are their "entourages"! My advice if you want to play prog? Relocate to the continent. Poland, Holland, Germany, even ex USSR states. They love their prog over there! * BTW, Pendragon hail from the West Country, or at least main songwriter/singer/guitarist Nick Barratt comes from Stroud...

[quote name='Highfox' timestamp='1463557990' post='3052213'] I used to have a set of those in the 112 variety, found them a little bass shy for my liking. The Rumbles kill them for tone imo. [/quote] It was the amp I was referring to...

[quote name='machinehead' timestamp='1463657499' post='3053124']To answer your question, I think your TE cab will be the limiting factor if paired with the BB2. It's liable to reach it's limits before the BB2 does.[/quote] Agreed.

It's OK. Not one of their classics, but even their worst track is better than a lot of the stuff that passes for "music" these days... Good grief - I've turned into my own father!! Not in the same class as these though.. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZymdEOAH5xE[/media] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRs4WMwMiwQ

[quote name='magee' timestamp='1462911210' post='3046948']Two of the feet on the side are missing but can be replaced for a couple of quid (I stand it on its bottom edge so never bothered). [/quote] Mine has a missing foot too - and I just bought a set of four. So whoever buys this cab is welcome to two of mine if they want to restore the cab to it's original state! Great cabs, and this is a very good price - especially with postage included

[quote name='Blink' timestamp='1462883713' post='3046584'] the punters love them all and i'd rather play to a packed dance floor…... [/quote] This ^ Playing "challenging" and "enriching" music to empty rooms is soul-destroying.

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1462831028' post='3046168'] The 9k one will have a slightly higher o/p, precisely trying to compensate for the weaker bridge position, so I'd say 9k. It's only a fair balance compared to its partner p/u, though, so there's no guarantee of its o/p compared to your current neck p/u. A resistance (or impedance') measure is not an exact way of establishing o/p, just a rough-and-ready guide. [/quote] By "o/p" do you mean output?

Replacement rubber feet - sorted now thanks!

[quote name='luckydog' timestamp='1462886012' post='3046625'] Too few opportunities in this life to go into a music shop and ask "Have you got rubber feet?". Each chance should be taken IMO, and the moment enjoyed LD [/quote] Where's that "like" button? -

[quote name='rmorris' timestamp='1462882807' post='3046568'] Quick Google turned up this (see link) £0.28 each (bought in 4s) - I didn't check all three rubber options - and £4.50 shipping.

http://basschat.co.uk/topic/280856-ebs-reidmar/page__p__3005362__hl__ebs__fromsearch__1#entry3005362 I've never used one, but lots of people refer to them being extremely loud for their conservative rating...

I use a second-hand Markbass LM2 and Barefaced Compact (generation 2). Both together come in just on your budget. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/283823-24-hour-holdbarefaced-compact-cloth-grill-l325-pics-up/page__p__3040836__hl__compact__fromsearch__1#entry3040836"]http://basschat.co.u..._1#entry3040836[/url] http://basschat.co.uk/topic/284358-markbass-sa450-amp-head/page__p__3046323__hl__markbass__fromsearch__1#entry3046323 Very light and VERY loud!

[quote name='hubrad' timestamp='1462883144' post='3046572'] have you tried just contacting Alex at Barefaced to see if he has the exact matching one? [/quote] Yes. They have run out -

I've already placed an ad in the "wanted" section, but not many people seem to use that.... I've lost one of the rubber feet from my gen 2 Barefaced Compact. I've looked online to source a replacement, but although they are widely available, the shipping costs are ridiculous (over eight quid to ship a single foot that would fit in an envelope!!). I don't suppose anyone would have a spare one kicking around? The size is 25mm x 10mm and it has an integral steel washer. A company called Penn Elcom list the part as F1693... Worth a punt at least. I am, of course, going to pay for postage and the item itself!

[quote name='Musicman20' timestamp='1462785949' post='3045583'] If I were closer to you (happens to me with EVERYTHING I like on the sale forums) I'd be interested in giving these a quick go now my Orange cabs have (almost) gone. [/quote] Then buy them! At this fantastic price, even if you don't like them you could sell them on for what you paid... That's what I would do. These cabs are small enough that you could even pop up to Edinburgh on the train and bring them back as hand luggage! Just trying to be helpful
