No point trying cabs at home - they need to be in rehearsals or at gigs with guitarists and drummers to compete with! Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finbar Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 All sounds good to me, though I don't drive, so I can't go to meet people. I am perfectly happy forking out some money for postage though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean.Robinson Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 (edited) Hi, if you could put me on that list too that would be great, im in the rotherham area Edit; looking at that list i could probably take the cab from sheffield to bradford as i travel between huddersfield and rotherham quite regularly Edited July 21, 2009 by Sean.Robinson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibob Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 All sounds good to me, and how long will people have it for? Cos if it's a week each, this is like a 7month thing so far....which is fine, but we should probably be quite strict about it Si Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cos if it's a week each, this is like a 7month thing so far....which is fine, but we should probably be quite strict about it[/quote] This thought did occur to me too. Alex' intention is that everyone should use it on at least one gig. Which is fine if everyone gigs at least once a week. I reckon the list, as it currently stands, is probably more like 12 months. Maybe he needs to send another one round in the opposite direction? Then everyone gets to try it twice, and the person in the middle of the list gets to try a stack of 2. S.P.

crez5150 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Well I'm pretty much full on gig wise at present so I'd do three gigs with it over a weekend then drop it to the next person on the list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd also like to let people try the Big Baby because I really want to find out how much power it needs to rock (as it isn't a high sensitivity design like the others).

Sibob Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Yeah I guess sending either a Midget or a Big Baby round the opposite way would solve the problem and provide people with some context between the ranges! I'm in the same boat as Crez, pretty full on gigs wise. Good stuff Si Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexclaber Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 I guess for those gigging less frequently the testbed will have to be the rehearsal room to stop the cabs taking forever to get anywhere. Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Balsamic Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Annyone gigging on of these around the Wirral? I'd love to hear one, I just won't have the opportunity to do it myself for a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However the Big Baby will be doing the rounds and it sounds all but identical, just ~5dB quieter. Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
