I have been using my BT2 for a few years now with a Jule Monique pre and Demeter Minnie 800 Power amp. This has more volume than I will ever need and I love the tone. I can get some lovely vintage goodness. The short video is filmed on a basic iPhone from an outdoor gig. Using Sadowsky HPJ...

I am in - when can we order? Need to get one of these down under for easier travelling than Mo.

Thanks - it's hard to sound bad through Monique

Here is Monique being used in a 60's Soul context. Monique's ability to channel the Ampeg B15 tone fits so well with this style of music. It is a live recording with Monique's DI straight to the desk and digital recording. There is a little bit of the cab bleeding through the vocal mix but it...

I went from a Berg 412 to a big twin. Not really a fair comparison as I rarely run anywhere near max output. All big gigs have DI and the cab is just a monitor. I also used a Baer ML112 + ML115 setup. The Barefaced is definitely easier to carry than both other set ups and has more output...

I have a BT2 and play soul and funk. I use a fender P, Sadowsky J or a Lull PJ which has Nordstrands. I largely run a Monique which can do both old school 60's and modern funk. It has a valve rectifier so may be a bit too old school for you. I also have run my Markbass TTE 500 through it and...

No, but as the speaker configuration is the same as the BB2 I would expect the tone to be very similar to my rig. This matches the sweet midrange I had with bergs but adds a wallop of low end (I actually turn the lows down on this a bit) and has a great high end. The Jazz absolutely growls...

I thought along the same lines. I was looking for a more vintage tone for most of my gigs but wanted the flexibility of more modern if needed. The Big Twin with the tweeter turned down does vintage really well. A lot of people post here about wanting the lightest and most portable so go for...

I blew a fuse in Minnie during set up at a gig. At that stage did not carry a spare. I did carry an EBS Reidmar as a spare amp. Ran Monique into EBS - 250w heaps of grunt through a Berg NV412. Not as nice as Minnie but shows the benefit of spare everything. I now have spare Minnie fuses -...

I am not really keen on the form factor of a 410. If the 210 does not have enough output and the big twin 2 is too modern then I would either go for 2 x 210 stacked vertical or just use the 210 for smaller gigs and keep the Berg 412 for when it is not enough. So my choice is 1 x 4 ohm 210 if...

I am looking to move to Barefaced. I am currently using either a Berg NV412 or a Berg ht/ex 112 pair. I am looking at the two10 as it is reported to give more of a sealed vintage vibe (like the NV412), but concerned one will not cut it for bigger gigs. I also went with the NV412 over the...

She works very well with the ML115. It goes deeper than the ML112 but still has articulation from the 6 inch mid. Of course she works best with the 2 together.
