The edit in Lennon's Working Class Hero is hideous

Wow - seriously old post but my googling of 'Ronnie Hazlehurst bass' turned this up. It seems that most of his stuff had awesome basslines that all sound like the same player. I was watching some old Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrins on Youtube and noticed the bassline to the theme is really...

Yes please :) See above

Hey Dan - I would appreciate a photo of your wiring mod. I had that problem of an 'all or nothing' bass tone control and I tried to follow your suggestion but the controls are behaving even more weirdly . Full bass dialled in seems to actually cut the bass now :( I think I've done something...

and thanks for the welcome - its already more friendly than when I asked a pre ernie ball stingray question on the EB forum - You'd have thought I'd just asked whether I could do their granny up the glitter.

Thanks Ed. I'm starting to understand and yes, I think the extension must be 8 ohms as I'm pretty sure the 4x10 bit is 8. might have to spend a few days reading the thread on mixing speaker sizes properly - would be a lot cheaper and easier to get another 4x10 but I want more bottom end - I...

thanks FC and Jimmy - Yes I think the combo is at 8 ohms - the tweeter is rated 8 ohms but the 4 10s are celestion and don't say - dunno how they are wired - wouldn't know what to look for. my local music store said I needed a 500w but they would say that aye. @jim - Risk? you're just people...

I didn't ask about my preferred config - I just got told that it was a prehistoric set up. (see no 2) So what wattage do they need to be - from what I've read an 8 ohm 250w should be ok but I'm not sure. I just get annoyed when people are so arrogant and don't want to answer a perfectly...

I have googled for specs - can only find the newer 2x10 version. I said in the original post that it's min 4 ohms and I thought it was an entirely reasonable question for someone who isn't at all technical. It seems I was wrong - so so wrong. So it's one of those boards with those kind of...

Well i did read the stickies and I've seen the mixing driver sizes thread. I still didn't understand the ohms watts thing so I asked a very specific question and hoped for a specific answer. As for the 4x10 + 1x15 thing - well after reading some of the driver thread it seems that it's a...

Newbie here - guess this type of question is asked almost daily here so at the risk of being flamed: I've got a trace elliot 1210H 4x10 combo and want to get a 15" extension speaker to beef up my bottom end. The amp is rated at 300w rms and is increased to 500w with extn speaker. It...
