lownote Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 (edited) What are people using to tilt back cabs that haven't got that capacity built in? Being the chihuahua of cabs, my much awaited One10 is likely to have my socks, not trousers, flapping unless I can tilt it back. And, a related question, what do people use to stop heads slipping off tolex covered tiltbacks? Tnx.

jrixn1 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 When I had a One10 I used a Stagg 14707, which was originally recommended here: https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/284370-ncd-barefaced-one10-review Later in the same thread I posted some photos of using Dual Lock to attach the head to the cab: https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/284370-ncd-barefaced-one10-review/?do=findComment&comment=3384614 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lownote Posted March 13, 2020 Author Share Posted March 13, 2020 (edited) "I find no need for a tilt-back. Even if I'm standing over the cab, it disperses so well that I can hear myself easily." Found that from a BCer about the BF One10 4 years ago. That makes life easy... but thanks for the tips jrixn1 Edited March 19, 2020 by lownote12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambient Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 I’ve used the cover before now, just fold or roll it up and prop it under the front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Steve Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 purely for home use, I got one of these for a small 5w Marshall amp: https://www.andertons.co.uk/guitar-dept/electric-guitar-accessories/electric-guitar-hangers-stands/quiklok-bs317-amp-stand works an absolute treat, although very much based on being a good fit for the dimensions of my amp. Admittedly mine's a combo, so I didn't have to worry about the head 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpondonBassed Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I'd be tempted to hide wedge the guitarist's chorus pedal under a cab and kill two birds with one stone, so to speak. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never mind the pedal, the average guitar itself could serve similar re-purposing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did wonder if angling the cab would mess with the performance of the port, but with it near the back it might be OK. However, you will need to be sure that whatever you use doesn't impede airflow for the port.... I would think that anything elevating the cab off the deck to any large degree might cause a loss of performance (though am happy to be corrected!!!)

The one10 can also be used on its side and I think Barefaced say that it puts out more bass this way. Sideways should be easier to tilt. For what it's worth - I have no trouble hearing a single one10 sitting flat on the floor in portrait orientation. A pair are just fantastic sounding. Frank. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
