    Squier 40th Anniversary Vintage and Gold Editions

    Hi, I'm thinking between CV 60's P-bass 3TS, and Vintage dakota red P-bass, but don't know about quality. Where would you put Vintage and Gold series compared to CV 60's in terms of wood, hardware, sound and playability. Are they just pimped CV series or fall behind (or even in front of CV)? I...

    Faital 15XL1400 for bass?

    First of all, not much will be wasted as I got the Faital for free and B&C was last item on a clearance sale and was dirty cheap. So I may waste $50 of MDF and parts but at least will have a fun. I love speakers but with my knowledge I wouldn't buy expensive parts without complete projects (like...

    Faital 15XL1400 for bass?

    Yes, having a fun is the main goal. I use only headphones at home and don't like loud music at all so hifi/HT sub isn't really interesting to me at this time. Actually I gave away my complete hifi system. And as you said, for PA subs 15s are meh..

    what cab to pair with a Fearless F112?

    I have the same "problem" and decided to build a fearful 12/6, can not really imagine other portable cab to match. just won't use both cabs that often to justify spending on an another f112. Fearlul will cost half the price of fearless.

    Faital 15XL1400 for bass?

    Yeah it'd be perfect for sub but I wouldn't have use of it. I'd like to build something I will use, like a floor monitor or bass cab. It's way too deep and overkill for a wedge so bass cab it is. Thanks, you helped me a lot. I will use plastic drain pipes, they are ca 5-6" and pretty good...

    POLL: Who needs an amp on some gigs because of vocals-only PA?

    I played only one gig where my amp had to carry the whole space. It was long time ago and it was a mistake. My gear can handle small clubs but have it only as my personal monitoring. Floor wedges for band members, PA for audience, simple as that. No way I'm gonna turn my stage volume up to...

    Faital 15XL1400 for bass?

    Wow, that DSP looks great but I got a order shipped from thomann...3 hours ago:meh: Overall sounds like a good idea. I understand that designing a passive bass/midrange crossover requires a good amount of knowledge and that's exactly why I won't go that way:D. As for tweeter, I don't use it in...

    Faital 15XL1400 for bass?

    I have a SS PA amp that does 900W 8ohm and a GK1001 I'm replacing with a light head but will keep it as a backup, it's a great head. GK is "only" 500W/8ohm but conservative rated, it destroys my fearless 112 while other 500W amps can barely warm it up. Still won't be enough for this beast but...

    Faital 15XL1400 for bass?

    Hi TB, so I have this used driver I got as a gift almost a year ago, and as I finally ordered a table saw for my hobby woodworking workshop, I decided either to build n cab around it or to sell it. The speaker is big and heavy ad from specs it should be a monster but it is a subwoofer so not a...

    Help with new 5 string set

    You misunderstood me, I didn't say I have a problem with floppy B, it just lacks definition above 4th fret. Physically, B string is just fine and plays great, just like on most Laklands. What I don't care about is the tension feel under my right hand finger tips. For example, round cores tend...

    Help with new 5 string set

    Hi TB, After 7 years of using exclusively Elixir SS's, DR lo rider steels and (occasionally) hi beams and dragon skins, I came to a conclusion that I wasn't 100% happy with any of them. DRs are great A-G but B is floppy after 4th fret on my Lakland 55-01. Elixirs last forever but punch just...

    Single cab choice: Genzler 210-3, F112.

    Actually I can have Genzler for a 30 days trial period and send it back, but I'm so tempted to f112. This will be a hard pick. Unfortunately still no answer from a fearleas builder i contacted As for stand, I realized that most cabs just don't work on the ground. Lifting is the key of havin a...

    Single cab choice: Genzler 210-3, F112.

    wow, that's nice rig! well, F112 is wedged so I'm concerned if it will be stable when I place it on the K&M stand and add my GK amp + hard case with my pedals on the top of everything. ps, sorry, there was a mistake in the title, Genzler I look at is 210-3, not 10-2

    Single cab choice: Genzler 210-3, F112.

    Hi TB, I have a little hard time deciding on buying a new cab. At the moment I use 410 placed on the floor and all it makes is a big noise on the stage. I always play with PA support so need a small cab that will provide good bass monitoring for me, the guitar player and partly for our drummer...
