...a 4x10 that works effectively gives me the horn.

That's handy, because the Barefaced 410 doesn't have one.

They've gone up once because the first 10 have obviously sold, the second 10 won't last long then they'll go up again...

Looks cool & good luck with it , but weight is the issue for me & my 2 x super compacts are the best I've had . I had a very good slap style player try my rig he made it sound just like His old 2 x 4x10 trace cabs ..& all the other 4x10 rigs He's had . Ashdown ABM & Barefaced super compacts make a very versatile rig .

Yes, yes they do!

[doomed]

Mine arrived today, very impressed with it, looks the business and sounds really nice at front room volume, trying it at any real volume has to wait till the weekend though.

Anybody could contact someone from BF lately? Its been some time that I am trying to reach them via email but got no reply. Are they on holiday?

I got a reply yesterday might have had a early Friday...

[Mark Dixon]

So have folks been mainly going for the 8 ohm version?

[doomed]

Mine's 8ohm, 2ohm no good to me so I'm hoping the new generation speakers will make good the difference between the 4ohm Dubster and the Four10. I can switch the Terror to 8ohm impedance if I have to obviously but not the OB1.

good job i'm broke

[Joebethell]

Placed my order only a couple left at the lower price now from what Alex told me.

[doomed]

Here's a picture of mine at practice last weekend, it's not very big 😁, volume in spades not as crushingly low end as the Dubster but the speakers will no doubt loosen up a bit after a few hours.

Exactly the setup I would go with right there...

How's the Terror/Four10 combination?

It'll do the job, we're playing in drop B so tbh I wasn't expecting it to compete with the Dubster for all out low end, as I said I expect it'll get a little deeper as the speakers loosen up, no worries on the volume front with the Terror, I haven't tried the OB1 yet, more mids and highs obviously than the Dubster and a nice growl was easily found, I imagine it'll be a popular addition to the Barefaced range, not everyone will like it as with any cab but I think there will be more likers than haters. And the finish is impeccable.

My current project is tuned Drop-A just because the guitar player has got himself a new 7 string, much to my annoyance, so that's useful info Doomed. A Big Twin 2 (rather than a Four10 or a second Two10) may be the best purchase if it ever gets off the ground.

Has anyone tried it next to an Ampeg fridge? Be interested to see how it faired there!

Not quite, but twice I've played through an Ampeg SVT + Fridge, and both times wished I had my Terror 500, Super Compact + RetroTWO10...

[doomed]

Update, gigged the Four10 last night and had a bit of a tweak with the amp eq, bigger lows and ample volume were forthcoming, also heard it from out in the room as I lent it to a mate who played after and it sounded great from various points in the room, the headline bands bassist was using an svt pro and a couple of Zilla cabs but he commented on my sound and said "what the f@@# is in that Barefaced it sounds awesome". She's a keeper.

[Lozz196]

Which amp were you putting the the BF410?

[doomed]

I used my Terror 500 Lozz, Jamie used his OB1-500, he normally uses an obc410 and was impressed with the four10 too.

Yeah Dragonffli, and last night at Coleford in the Forest of Dean.

[bigjimmyc]

I just bought a nearly-new BH800 to replace my ABM500 (thanks traders!), and so now I can tell you that the new amp/cab combination is AWESOME! Much cleaner sound than the ABM, punchier too.

Can't wait for rehearsal tomorrow to test the additional headroom. My rig has gotten smaller and smaller but the sound is just the opposite.

Anyone in or around Nottingham have one of these for me to have a go with?

BF have done a very smart thing and created a web page for this exact question:
[url="http://barefacedbass.com/barefaced-map.htm"]http://barefacedbass.com/barefaced-map.htm[/url]

Unfortunately there are no four10 owners showing because it's not on the form you fill out as a proud owner (yet). Otherwise I would have done it already! Come on Alex - sort it out!!

Any time you find yourself in Hampshire come and try mine.
