What kind of amp/bass? Environment? Took a picture and didn't send it? Need more before I write a check to Barefaced....and I really/sincerely want to.

Thanks Bud! I saw that, but I was trying draw more info out into the open.
I see you're from SI N.Y., hope you/ friends and family are doing OK post Sandy. I still can believe the pictures I see of the devistation. Great show on 12/12 to benefit the region/victims too. Here's to the rising!! be well.

Hi,
Details of my setup, and a review of my experiences so far can be seen on this BC thread..

Hope this helps. I still need to find time to play the Precision through it

 

[Squirrel Danger]

What about the tone when we play with a passive bass ?
I can boosted the bass frequencies only with my amp ( Alessandro Basset Hound), because I have only passive basses (Gretsch only).
Have you a date of launch on the market? It has been year since I look forward to your cab.

Please note that that bass boost was because I primarily play reggae. I have a hunch that the '69er will perform even better with my passive P when playing rockier stuff.

Thanks for the link. Nice!

Now all I need is for someone to do an NV610/69er A/B (although I suspect it'll be a win/win).

I've got 69er no. 4 and it's brilliant. My review is here if you're interested.

Does anyone have one in the U.S. yet? I hope this cab isn't too mid present. Does it have tilt back casters and skid rails?

 

[bertbass666]

Certainly not mid present. Has tilt back casters but no skid rails though.

 

[alexclaber]

We've thought about skid rails on our big cabs but they seemed rather superfluous as they're there to help you tip and lever a cab into a van when it's too heavy to lift - which isn't exactly a problem when all our cabs weigh under 60lbs! None in the USA yet...

 

[Liggins]

I don't miss the skid rails on the Big Twin, which is a bigger cab than the 69, fact is you can clear it directly into the car without having to rest it on the lip like you'd have to with an 8x10...

There may be one in the US soon if you would quote me a price. Emails sent during the week.

 

[someparts]

Bumping this. Been watching for these for ages it seems.

 

[adivin]

Still don't have a quote. I'd probably be in a nursing home by the time I got the cab.

Then you would definitely appreciate the light weight.

Good point. I will place my order now. In the meantime, I'll get LDS to build me a killer sealed 610.

Sorry, I thought I'd responded to your query! 6-8 week wait on '69er orders at the moment.

Haha!

So.....anybody get one of these in the US yet?

 

[Devo-lution]

Ordered one!

I've been looking for a new 6x10 for a while, with weight being a major consideration (downsizing from 8x10). I really like the looks of these, seems to be just what I'm looking for. Just put my deposit down.
