+1 Magellan 350-BA110 Combo – S2 There is a Magellan 350-MG12T-V combo in the classifieds here (I have no involvement or knowledge about the seller).

Lower tension strings might help as well.

I've lost that lovin' feeling for square (2x2) 4x10's in general (prefer staggered driver baffle designs). The GK 2x12 is quite capable and 20 lbs. lighter than the 4x10 cab, so I'd recommend the GK 2x12 Neo IV.

Traynor's website says that the BM15C is 44.5 lbs. 38 lbs. would be better, but did you weigh the amp?

Mega-Nasty!

I would think that if you lined the bottom (bridge-side) of the pickups with the originals, they'd be (or almost be) jammed together like the MTD Super's pickups. [I don't know how big the gap between the regular soapbar pickups or how much bigger the Super J pickups are.]

It's not just Mesa cabs - non-Neutrik SpeakOns have been causing problems for years with any SpeakOn connectored cabs. I know the new issues are somewhat different, but yeah, just wanted to clarify.

I know this is a Sad thread, but I liked the Fodera Deluxe :: Ash / Maple / Ebony tone - beef with articulation. I wish they had recorded it with the Genzler Kinetix 800 and a couple of Bass Array cabs. I think they were using the Epifani Head and cabs which I never quite gelled with - like...

What about these? Neutrik Rean RLS4FC 4-Pole speakON Cable Connector

I wonder if it's possible to put a rubber or plastic washer into the knob assembly that would give it just a bit more resistance to turning.
