Roland Rock Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 [quote name='keeponehandloose' timestamp='1457280731' post='2996993'] I have only one major issue with my BB2. I should have bought the silver face . [/quote] I only have one problem with my Super Twin. I should have bought the metal grille version.

Lozz196 Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 I think the silver looks very cool, but to me the metal grille just seems more practical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taunton-hobbit Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 The silver looks very retro, but you can repaint the metal, which is more practical? (& you can change the colour if you get bored)..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretmeister Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 I love my One10. I also discovered it's a pretty good guitar cab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete_the_beat Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 [quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1457105901' post='2995430'] Which amp stand do you use please? [/quote] I don't know which amp stand ghost_bass uses, but I'm currently using a [url="https://www.thomann.de/dk/km_28130_ampstaender.htm"]K&M amp stand[/url] with my Big Baby II and TC RH450 on top. The stand can handle 35kg so it's no problem at all and I get the best sounding bass monitor on the planet, when I'm playing with a large PA.

LewisK1975 Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I've got 2 supercompacts and they're great - one is easily enough for all gigs. For some gigs I've actually taken both in for aesthetics but only plugged the top one in. Works a treat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I use a Rockstand, got it from thomann but they don't seem to have it available at this time: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Rockstand-Combo-Amp-Stand-Medium/dp/B00735VEBE I find this pretty handy as i can use it with both arms at the same height to use the 2x12" or use one lower so i can have my combo tilted. Lets see if i can link some pics: If you look at the left side i had both my stands being used by the guitards on that gig, one had his cab tilted and the other straight.

Marty Forrer Posted March 8, 2016 Author Share Posted March 8, 2016 Great to see the love for Barefaced. I can't comprehend the old "I can't afford it" wail though. I live in New Zealand, so I not only have hefty freight, but also Goods and Service Tax, customs entry tax, various other little charges, and the GST on all of those too. However, the benefits of the Barefaced are worth every bit of it. I can't wait to get my second one! Incidentally, the cab I sold to finance the second one was a Greenboy fEARful 12/6, a wonderous cab, but the weight was a bit much for my crumbling vertebrae.

Grangur Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I loved my BigOne. It had me convinced I need a 15" to get those lows. I then bought my One10 and that theory went straight out of the window. Loving the One10 massively. It looks far better in my lounge at home too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul h Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I still love my Gen1 Compact. I can't see why I would ever change it. Unless of course it's for a Super Compact...or a One10...or two One10's. Yeah, I want two One10's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] If using one it's just been on the floor up til now. Have been considering some sort of stand / kick back mind you.. Regards break-in I'd say they were broken in by the end of the 3rd gig I did with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ead Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Had my G2 Compact and G2 Midget for a while now and foresee several more years with them as they work brilliantly for me. Lent my rig to the bass player in another band the other weekend and he's now after some BF cabs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dood Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I like surprising people by showing them that my 'bass cab' sounds great as a HiFi speaker when I play CD's through it. Then demonstrating how good it still sounds as the windows start rattling. Up goes the volume! Now, it wouldn't hurt to have another, right?
