1x12" Cabinets

Post by **Mike** » Thu Jul 09, 2009 8:29 pm

That's a good call. I need something as a buffer.

Behringer make a Bass Sansamp Thing, I'll get that.

I couldn't bring myself to pay the hefty prices people are charging for their cabinets....so i built my own.

If I tried that it would just turn out like Homer's BBQ Pit.

I am not gifted with wood.

I was looking at this but it's too fucking spendy. Â£130. Sounds great injected into a PA or recording system though.

I'll probably just buy one of these:

Â£34 and has a DI built in.

nice little gear purchase mike me boy. you gonna bring the harley to doogfest? be interested to hear how they sound.
i keep thinking of getting a pitchblack, TU2's are ok but i want something better like the picthblack or the other korg pedal one.

Yeah I could do, if it gets here before Doogfest and that. I'll see what fits in the motor.

THAT much? I got my HH bass combo for free.
Can't lift the sodding thing without donning my truss and mankini and putting rosin on my hands, though..

I've tried bass through an HH 2x12 sealed-back guitar combo and it farts at the bottom end, below about G. The 15" reflex bass cab is superb but needs to come with its own Jetsons levitator belt.

Bammo. Shit sounds GEWD.

May even try the 1x12" at Rehearsal next week with Sell Crazy.

looks good man. Now you just need that cabinet to be wrapped in orange tolex.

Post by **Mike** » Thu Jul 16, 2009 8:48 pm

I'm not really bothered about that sort of thing. Mismatching stuff is alright.

What happened to the saltbooster for "bassing purposes"?

hope i'm not imagining that

Post by **Mike** » Thu Jul 16, 2009 8:54 pm

Yet to build it, but it'll be on there, fo' sure.

Pancakes is on hiatus for the next month and a bit anyway while Doog goes on tour with Caution Horses and records his Doog record, so I have plenty of time.

Looking gooooood, Mike! Lemme know how the 1x12 fares, in comparison to our mutual friend, the 1936. Not really in the market currently, but good to know..

Post by **Mike** » Fri Jul 17, 2009 7:36 am

Will do. I'll give it a run through next week and see how it hangs with the band.
