He also had a DB810 and DB751 on stage. During the break I went up and chatted with Warrens guitar tech and Ron adds the 810 and drives both with the DB751 for festivals.

| | | | yeah, i wonder how often anybody ever hears the speakers their favorite guys are using (overdrive guys like justin chancellor excepted)? live, we hear the bass through whatever signal chain into the PA, and on record we hear the bass through whatever signal chain into the desk.

| | | | I discovered 12's before I noticed anyone else playing them.
But anyways
Leland Sklar played the EA CXL 112's on several tours
Chris Chaney with Janes Addiction uses 2 Aguilar DB 412's live.
Not long ago there was a Db 412 in a nice roadcase on eBay that claimed it was on tour with Mariah Carey.
I think a lot of pros go with 12's
I've really enjoyed my rigs with 12's they seem to really open up faster than 10's on a short stage. And they just sound fatter and warmer in most cases. YMMV | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
