Mike Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 Welcome to Basschat Chris - but Ssssshhh!! I would also like to hear the skinny on the Zoot cabs. But I should really just pop 10mins down the road to Mike @ Bass Merchant. Still, let's hope we get some info. Quote
Scoop Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 Bassbunny brought a couple of slightly different spec Zoot cabs to the North West Bass Bash - I was well impressed with them. So much so that I asked him to PM me all the specs and supply details so that I could look into them further. Try a PM to him and have a read of the North West Bash event review here: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=15431"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=15431[/url] coz I'm sure the the cabs are mentioned more than once or twice. HTH Quote

Alex[/quote] Hummmmmm you are not alone .. Also what were they doing reviewing a Bag End ("not available in the UK") and not doing a Schroeder - available in the UK via SHX, and popular on BC ... or Markbass - available on every high street???

Alpha-Dave Posted September 25, 2008 Posted September 25, 2008 I spent a couple of hours at the Bass merchant trying them out, the 2x10s I could hold at arm's length (for a second), and sounded great (to me!). The only downside for me was the handles: multiple-edge handles that mean you can hold it easily in 2 hands but can't in one, making the light weight less useful! Quote

SHX may not have had a cab available or maybe they were not asked. Quote

Sean doesn't actually hold much stock but I am sure he could have got a cab from Jorg if he'd been asked .. I still don't get why they reviewed a BagEnd though ..

Just supposition, but if they'd reviewed a limited number of cabs it'd have made the shoot-out a bit worthless so 'maybe' they dragged a couple of cabs in off the street!

GremlinAndy Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 I don't let the local availability of a particular cab bother me when I'm looking for a cab, a bass, or an amp, and am therefore interested in hearing the results of a shootout between various cabs regardless of availability or otherwise... (personally speaking of course) Quote
