Looking good. still interested in the comparison with Mesa and also the Genz Benz Streamliner. I had one of those and it was awesome but sold because of...well.. thinking I needed something else😅

And where do you order those Pickguards? 'cause I need a black one for my HTB Cutlass and a white pearloid version for my Diamond blue Caprice bass.:)

Who has changed the pickguard of an Heritage Tobacco Caprice and/or Cutlass? and to which color? I've had the original PG and a black one, but thinking of aged white pearl. Who of you has done this before and has pictures of it?

What are the measurements of the nordstrand used in the EHB1505SM? It looks like there is yet no 'drop-in' replacement by Nordstrand for the Barts in the 1005MS

Same here. I like the woods en looks of the 1005MS and the sound of the Nordstrands.

I use the D800 and a SW 112 for the smaller semi-acoustic gigs. So 800 watts is way too much But the sound is just it and you can slip it into your bass gigbag when you play a venue with rented gear and have your own tone (more or less)

Sounds to me you've already made your choice! :thumbsup:

Yep, what he said.

The subway 112 does move air and has oomph. Used it with two loud guitars and drummer. The reaction I got was to sell my Carbine M6 and PH410. I'll bring that set for the next rehearsal and they will never say that again. And having an Fulltone Bassdrive engaged between bass and D800 certainly...

Yes that's correct. But the amp will work fine with cab(s) with a total 4ohm impedance with the switch set to 2 ohm. You can do this with every load as long it is more then the minimum 2 (or 4 ohm depending on your selection) So with cabs of 8 ohm, no problem but the amp will deliver less...

And as was mentioned before, you can use the amp set at 2 ohm. The D800 then delivers about 625 watt @ 4 ohm.

Yes, it's makes a really handy DI with the sound you want to have on recordings. Used it this way two weeks ago. And also did a few tracks where I used a mic in front of the Subway 112 to blend the both signals. Sounded great!

Yep! That's the reason why I use the Carbine M6 and PH410 for really loud situations. And it's 200 watts less then the D800..... Imho that's the difference between class-D and mosfet power. So more speakers will do the job instead of more watts. :thumbsup:

No not a fight. Used the two sets in different occasions. Did A/B them before on the PH410. I tested the D800 on the 410 and did a great job but it didn't delivered the same punch, lows etc as to what the M6 does. Imho the M6 fits the voicing of the PH410 very well en better then the D800 does...

Alright, had a few weeks testing my Carbine M6 + PH410 and D800 with the Subway 112. I still prefer the tubey sound and HUGE power on tap over the D800. But I now understand what you people mean by 'the constant work' on the eq of the M6. The D800 is easier to dial in a good tone. Had good fun...
