What an absolute beauty of a bass - I have seen many Sadowskys and this one is simply breathtaking!!!

I've been using a Barefaced BB2 for a while now, and I was happy enough with it, but I decided to try the Genzler 12-3 slant for a change. Partly because I love my Magellan 800 head, partly because I was interested in the line array and mostly because one appeared for sale when I had some money.

 

I don't want to be negative about the Barefaced cab, it is a monster, but there is something much more focused about the Genzler. The lows are less wooly and the top is less brittle.

 

The Barefaced moved more air,  that's not really an issue for my main gig, but I think I will buy another Genzler cab soon.

 

I still prefer my EBS Proline 410, but it's not really a fair fight because that weighs 8 tons and takes up most of the average wedding venue which is my usual gig.

 

Anyway, I like the Genzler rig a lot, it's perfect for my gig.

 

Also, by total chance it was a really good fit for the flight case I've had stashed in the garage for years, just needed to be cut down slightly.

Sorry for the dodgy gig pics.

Thank you Sir

My wife said something similar about a sharp intake of breath when I got the credit card bill.

Just added a matamp GT150 to my rig! Haven't valved it yet but will do later tonight. Switchable power on the back from 150w to 75w and custom face plate. Can't wait to get it cranked. As ever the guys at matamp have been ace. Top top people.

This is the loud rig. It’s really rather a lot better than I am:

You know your rehearsal rooms! It's a great place isn't it

[Swaff]

First rehearsal room practice in years, still sounds as good as ever!

Fine looking rig, and that Gibson is really cool, I have been wanting to try one like that but they are scarce where I am.

Thanks! I do have the Gibson up for sale but I gave it another go with a decent setup and i've completely 180'd on it. It sounds huge, easy to play, very lightweight and tonally varied.

I don't think they sold very well originally so they do seem to be few and far between. I got lucky with mine when someone put one on ebay 10 minutes walk from my house

It is - those guys do a great job with that place. The gear is well looked after, and it's always clean & tidy 🙂

I forgot how my rig sounds. I've been GAS-ing for a different cab for the last couple of months. Took my cab out of the garage and hooked everything up. So in love all over again!

Just got back into rehearsals with my new band and got to use my Bergantino rig "properly" 😁.  Totally blown away this amp/cab/bass combo...this is the tone I always had in my head.  Very happy.
