Soledad Posted July 29, 2019 Posted July 29, 2019 23 hours ago, Paddy515 said: I find they give a really cutting tone. I boost mids to get heard through the mix. Did the same, a little mid-boost, backed off slightly on bass. To be fair it did cut through and sit nicely between kick and snare, but I wasn't getting the low top / crunch. It must be there, just passing through my legs!! I'll get a better sound check next weekend - sure I can get what I want from this rig. May end up with my Jazz and rounds... Quote
Paddy515 Posted July 29, 2019 Posted July 29, 2019 Ive got cobalt flats one one bass and DR sunbeams on the other - use both pickups with the cobalts and just the bridge pickup with the sunbeams. Covers all bases. Quote

Merton Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 Remind me, @Passinwind, did you do a build thread or similar for your amp? V intrigued by it Quote

V intrigued by it Here's some back story: https://www.talkbass.com/threads/a-diy-1-2-rack-bass-preamp.1135423/#post-16982343 And the earlier 500 watt one, which uses the same preamp boards: https://www.talkbass.com/threads/a-diy-500-watt-bass-head.1061473/#post-15624273 There are quite a few sound clips floating around on Facebook from NAMM in 2017 and 2018, when two different versions were in a luthier friend's booth. But I'm no longer on FB, so I suppose I should post them on my website or somewhere. But since I'm not selling them, it seems easier to just be a slacker! 1 Quote
Merton Posted August 8, 2019 Posted August 8, 2019 Ashdown RM800 EVO (thanks @Ashdown Engineering!) and two Barefaced One10s. This little rig is a killer combination 3 Quote

Sure I should probably rotate the cabs 90 degrees to give a layout more like the Two10 I guess - will sort tomorrow and PM you! 2 Quote

Thank you. Your picture did confuse me as from my measurements, the RM head should not be so flush with the edge of the speaker on the Two10. Now I know why it is on yours 😁 1 Quote
Clarky Posted August 9, 2019 Posted August 9, 2019 Finally happy (famous last words) with my electric rig. Mesa D800 plus EBS Valvedrive through Barefaced Two10. My upright/acoustic rig is an Acoustic Image Clarus 2R through Barefaced One10. 5 Quote

GP12 SMX combo (1x15) + 2108X cab (2x10+2x5) + GT-6B At rest.... At play.... I once had a similar rig Stingray 5, an AH200-12 head with a 1x15 and the same 2x10 cab with the two little 5" drivers instead of a tweeter, what a nice, under rated cab it is, I liked it much better than any tweeter I have heard. 1 Quote
