The Mywatt is great. It's the same as a Hiwatt so that clean, valve, (tube), sound with an edge that you can't get with SS. The Mywatt and the 69er are a match made in heaven. In my opinion of course.

Just thought I'd let you all know the Midget T and Super Twelve T are reviewed in the February 2013 edition of Guitar and Bass Magazine.

They did pretty well..

GRAHAM SG1 · #**323** 01-08-2013, 02:41 PM

They gave the Super Twelve T 94%, thats 6% less than I give mine

You guys make a great product

I ordered my big twin barefaced 4 months ago, and I'm still waiting.
Does anybody know if is it normal, take all this time, because on barefaced site says 2 months of wait.
Just worried and kind exciting.
Thank's

Hi Irbass,

The Big Twins are in the current run, and we are hoping to get a batch of them out very soon. If you need any more specific info you can email me directly at bobby@barefacedbass.com. and I would be happy to discuss which order you are referring to.

GRAHAM SG1

Thanks. It is so great and rewarding to have happy customers. We plan to have many more!

I wish you guys every success Bobby

Do you know what the current wait is for a Midget (non T) with silver cloth ?

Bobby Barefaced · #**328** 01-09-2013, 08:04 AM

The wait on Vanilla Midgets is around 8 weeks, the demand is getting higher after the review, understandably.

GRAHAM SG1 · #**329** 01-09-2013, 12:15 PM

Vanilla midgets ?? must be an `in` joke

Hi Bobby
I sent 2 emails for you yesterday.
I don't know if you got it.
Just to you know.
Thank's

Hmm, don't think I posted a pic of my Barefaced Compact. Fantastic cab, and so lightweight it's incredible

LowNote · #**332** 02-10-2013, 03:54 PM

After about 4-1/2 months I received my Midget T last week and am knocked out by this speaker. I'm driving it with an Acoustic Image Focus 2 SIII amp, and it is loud, tight, clear and did I say loud. I've been unable to get it to fart out, although I don't have a 5-string to run through it. I like it with both my bass guitar and my upright. I was thinking that I would pair it with a Crazy 8 that I bought from Mike Arnopol, but it is so much louder than the Crazy 8 that I'm not sure about the pairing. It does pair nicely with a generation 1 AI Ten2EX speaker that I have, and I found them to have about the same volume. If the wait time ever settles down at BareFaced, I am going to be very tempted to buy one of the BF Compacts to pair with it. A very nice cabinet.

GRAHAM SG1 · #**333** 02-10-2013, 04:29 PM

Glad you like it

Mr. Foxen · #**334** 02-10-2013, 04:34 PM

Problem with dual Barefaced 2c15s is you don't get miced like the guitarist does:

^ holy crap! Lol!

Since recently receiving my Big Baby T, I've used it with 2 separate bands - a power-trio and a 4 piece Americana outfit (2 gigs as a dep). The BBT has replaced my MarkBass Jeff Berlin combo with a MB 1-12 extension cab.
I am an 'Old School' ex-pro player - you name it, I've probably done it. Before receiving the BBT, I had reservations about whether one small cab could climb in the ring with loud guitarists and drummers, go 12 rounds, and then climb out victorious. I needn't have worried. Coupled with a Genz Benz 900 (also bought on Alex's advice) and my 1989 MM Stingray 5, the cab sounded full and crisp - with plenty of that thick 'DI sound' that I like. The SR5 sounded fat, punchy, and nice and even in all registers - and I was at last able to hear myself clearly. The bass sound elicited very positive unsolicited comments from the musos in both bands and in the audience.
The cab really does exhibit the characteristics of a powerful 3-way studio monitor - simultaneous full bottom and sweet midrange clarity - Heavenly. I did not need to crank it up to match the rest of the band. I suspect that this little box has plenty in reserve.
The BBT definitely does what it says on the packet. Cheers Alex and the boys for the BBT and re-writing the bass cab paradigm - well done I love it.
PS I've now ordered a Super 15 - for when I work with LAF guitar players.

Congrats! Nice review of the BBT, I can't wait until I receive my Dubster. Should be only 2 more weeks!

okay, so I have a Duratex cab and then I have these Barefaced cabs covered in .......... what did you say this stuff was, Alex?

Anyways, whatever you use seems to be much tougher. The Duratex cab has only seen like 20 gigs and is already chipping off in spots. The Barefaced cabs have seen like 390 gigs and the coating is tough as nails. It took quite a hit from the base of a mic stand to knock off a tiny "bubble" of whatever-it-is-that-you-use. I don't even have covers for them, I just use an old mover's blanket in the trailer, and just carry them "bare" in and out of the gig.

I was worried about the cold. It is very cold up here, and many times the cabs have to spend the night in the trailer freezing. I'm always paranoid the cabs will explode when I bump into something when they're frozen, cause they're so thin and light, but they are as solid as the day I got them.

I've only spent a couple of hours with my new-to-me Compact, what an amazing cabinet, sounds fantastic, can't wait to gig it!
