Hi Gospel player /everyone i must confess i love GK amps i have the 1x12 combo i use when i go on a jazz summer school mostly on double bass' :i use it on a PA speaker cab stand so i can hear it and is at the right volume. I also got my GK400RB through a SON OF BERTHA and gave that a try.

Use an Ebony finger board like they do on Double basses (mines been on over 100 years) I made the bass on my Avatar from ebony with plenty of thickness so it can be cleaned up,also Jaco states he always practiced on his fretted to save the roundwounds eating the neck up.

If you're talking area's of speaker diameters i reckon it's more like this The area of a circle is the diameter squared X 0.7854 (Pi or 3.142 divided by 4) so for a 15" speaker we have 15 x 15 =225x 0.7855 = 176.74 square inches and for a 10" speaker 10x10 x 0.7855 =78.55 and as there are...

Hi pb9717 About Bi amping i've been having a look at GK and Hatrke specs,and seems like there are two methods of BI amping 1) GK (and other manufacturers i presume) are building amps with a stage to power the speakers and a lot lesser stage to power the horn and the matching leads to suit, and...

Yes,i think i like it because of the horn bringing out the hi's and you can adjust it. Thanks for the Chat guys i'm turning in now it's 02.22 Hours here in Blighty. Regards Lenny

Hi tfer, how do you mean it lost control? as in distortion or just like the speaker cones warning you they going detach ?

Yes,i think it is probably right about using a 4x10" and a 1x15",as i mentioned earlier when i used to use a 1x18" and a 2x10" i did Bi amp with a slave linked to the Peavey amp ;it does state in the manual if the slave you use has a greater power than the Peavey head, then to use that to...

My line of thought was since i have the SWR 1X15", I saw on Ebay a Golliath 4x10" so was thinking it would be more of a full range system when used with the 1x15", so yes i have heard that you can get a better bass response with the 10's but what about handling the bottom end of a five string as...

Yes it's also up to the end user and understanding how to use the different types of gear together, and i must admit my Son of bertha cab sounds great and i wouldn't mind another of the same,

Well starting with the "ZERO RESEARCH" reply ,i was asking for views on this subject,and do have some experience, of a simular set up i used in the 90's,I used to BI-AMP the Peavey Automix with a bottom 1x18" and slave it via the o/p jacks on the front of the amp using patch leads to a 2x10" Cab...

Hello,i'd like views on using either Two 4x 10 cabs or a single 15 with one 4x10 cab, (with a 5 string bass ) Im Thinking about starting playing Blues/ Funk kind of stuff ,i have at the moment a son of Bertha 1x15 cab and was thinking about a Golliath 3: 4x10 (but getting hold of one in UK Is...

Thanks, it is for Orchestral/ solo i'm wanting it for.
