EdwardHimself Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 [quote name='waynepunkdude' timestamp='1328740715' post='1532111'] It's very good for a practice amp it's not the quality of my other cabs but then it's no where near the price. [/quote] That is what you call a practice amp! Quote
EdwardHimself Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 Not mine, but my friend has just got himself a new rig: (the more observant of you might notice that I used to own the bass) Quote
StevieD_FenderP2009 Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 I'm desperate to try out one of those Hartke LH1000 heads as I know David Ellefson of Megadeth swears by them and they can be picked up quite cheap. Saying that, I can't see myself selling my Trace Elliot unless an SVT 4 Pro comes up for sale. Hopefully next month I'll have a few more additions to my rig so i'll post some pictures then Quote

[/quote] I've tried the 3, but got the 5 relatively cheap. It seemed to be the least favourite from the range and ended up discontinued. Ah well, I don't care, I love mine . Quote

waynepunkdude Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 I really don't like the styling of Barefaced cabs, they leave me cold. Quote

waynepunkdude Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 If you compare it to the Aguliar underneath it, it looks like tatty where as the Aggie looks quality but the Barefaced is probably the higher end cab. Quote
EdwardHimself Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 I think it's the wood, the barefaced wood is a lot thinner than what you would normally see on a bass cab. Quote
discreet Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 Er... isn't it about what the cabs sound like? Quote

[/quote] Us bassists are a shallow bunch, which explains why Barefaced cabs are not the best selling bass cabs of all time (assuming they really do sound as epic as everyone who's got one says they do) and why I don't have a picture of a highly intellegent but ugly person for my avatar (that was my last one, actually ) Quote

razze06 Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 (edited) More like a salvage yard special... Is there such a thing as a rat rig?
