Lozz196 Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 [quote name='Oldman' timestamp='1443436493' post='2874570'] Lozz, I thought you used 2 x Tecamp Puma 300's for the shoot out not a single 900! [/quote] In the end we couldn`t get two 300s so had the 300 and 900 lined up at same volume, but it worked easier just swapping one amp to the array of cabs. Quote
Oldman Posted September 29, 2015 Posted September 29, 2015 Aye aye, the footprint is identical and from a distance it looked as though you were, made more sense using one head Quote
stevie Posted September 29, 2015 Posted September 29, 2015 [quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1443372028' post='2874193'] I have just uploaded three short videos from the cab shootout. Normal test in the first video, cheap cab tested in the second video, mini cab tested in the third. [/quote] The sound quality is perfectly respectable. I'd be very interested in hearing the whole vid if that's at all possible. Quote

Dropzone Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 Now we will need to question, whilst you can tell the difference in a one against one setting, could you tell the difference and would the result be the same in a band scenario??? Quote
Dropzone Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 [sup]Also it would be fairer to give something an out of 10 score as one cab may be everyones second favourite and no ones first yet come last (if you see what I mean)? [/sup] Quote

Do you mind if I share the links with the Wal club on talkbass? Quote
TrevorR Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Rob, of course not. Go for it. Glad you enjoyed it and sad not to see you there! Quote
NancyJohnson Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Quick question...who was the member who had the Alpha/A/Alpher bass? If you were standing at the back of the stage looking out towards the seating, he was at the 2.00 o'clock position. P Quote

Silvia Bluejay Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Last youtube upload - the first 10 minutes of the talk by Andrew of D'Addario UK. The noise in the foyer makes listening a bit difficult, and it got worse as the talk progressed (there were people arriving at the bash with trolleys of gear, talking to each other, introducing themselves to Colin and Nik, etc.).

TrevorR Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 (edited) Fantastic blog Silvia. Great photos. And it answered a bit of brain fade that's been bothering me ever since. Had a lovely chat with Rumblefish and Mybass but couldn't for the life of me remember where I knew Pete from... Of course, seen him playing several times with the great Buddy Whittington. And playing his nice hand made basses too... D'oh! Edited October 6, 2015 by TrevorR Quote
Silvia Bluejay Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 Thank you all for reading, and for your support, as always Quote
Twigman Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 My latest bass and mini-rig - Nice pic - can I nick it? Quote
Silvia Bluejay Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 YAY! Of course you can. Feel free to download the original, or I can send it to you if it's easier. Quote
such Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 Very nice event. Don't know how, but I managed to miss the jam room completely :/ Won a Joni Mitchell live dvd with Jaco, Pat & Co though, so all good. Next time I'll contribute to the raffle in some worthy way. Enjoyed all the talks, and chats with basschatters too. Finally had a chance to check out a Sire Marcus bass in flesh - it was a lefty, but we compared it meticulously to my righty japanese Fender Marcus, and well, the differences are in design (preamp etc), not in quality. But that's for another thread, so I won't continue. Also an Alpher (also a first for me, although I've been following them for a while now), a bitsa with a Status neck (my bucketlist), so many Wals in one place, the cab shootout, it was all fantastic. I'm very happy these things happen and to have become a part of the community. Massive thanks to Nick, Hamster, Silvia and everyone involved. Quote
