Only you would catch that!

 

[steubig]

naw, i saw that. i just figured it was bad taste to mention on a bass site.

 

[nostatic]

I think it is tuned all 3rds. Drives me batty - I can't look at the neck and figure out what key he's in

Who built it?

Thanks Ken, more food for thought.

Anybody know what the wait time is for a Monique?

Thanks,
Mick

I ordered a bit over 2 weeks ago and was told mid-april.

Jule, I haven't been to your page for a while, but I just visited to see what changes you've made recently, and I had to laugh... BTB (Before TB) it was a fun read but low on tech... (aka: plug it into your amp, it will sound great) to now, Input sensitivities, output voltages, etc.

Do you ever feel like life was much more simple before you found us?

This weekend I was able to run my Mesa 4/12 and 2/15 cabs 2ohms out of Monique and CrownXTI combo. Sounded even better at 2ohm's. Wish I was able to run this setup all the time. It was very close to how my 400+ sounds but Monique has a little more compressed sound and the 400+ is thicker on the bottom end.

It's still simple. She just has to sound and play great. And it is still wonderful fun.

I have enjoyed almost every suggestion as to what more Monique might bring to the performance.

The above exception refers to a suggestion (early this week) to have a software "model" of Monique developed so as to "take advantage of her popularity."

Visual therapy:

I'm currently 100% satisfied with my Aguilar rig but that Jule/Minnie combo is soooo GAS inducing....!

 

[Tugboat]

Hey Jule, another accessory question...you had mentioned a while back that someone (?) was working on a case for the Dovecage that will hold the Dovecage as well as a Minnie D. Is that still something that may come to fruition? Sorry for the questions lately, just planning out my next purchase.

Yes. Still in the plans. Running a bit behind right now, so I have neglected this project until I can get caught up. It will happen.

Many of you may laugh your asses off, but I posted in the last thread that the carrying case from a certain Philips CPAP machine fits the Dove Cage perfectly. It also looks good, doesn't have logos or text plastered on the outside, etc. it is just a soft travel case. I have taken it to dozens of gigs and nobody thought is was anything other that a case made for the Pre.

May seem a bit (lot) weird, but anyone looking for a cheap soft case ($46.95) for Monique, this is a good deal, is well made and fits great.

Well, I love technology, but there are some things that just ain't natural. This is one of those. besides, you'd have to have it come in both rack and cage versions then you'd have to model plug-ins for each tube type in each position.

 

[BurningSkies]

And I broke down and bought a couple new tubes for my Monique. I have an RCA 6SL7 WGT and a brown base/clear glass Tung Sol coming. I haven't tried a Tung Sol that hasn't been noisy/microphonic so that should be interesting and I hope that the RCA can replace what I loved about the Blackplate JAN/NOS I had last year.

Both from http://www.vacuumtubes.net/ after some praise from Chadds. They were very easy to deal with and had fast responses to my questions.

The Dove Cage arrived at 11 a.m. this morning and I just now
shut it off at 8:3O......
Fingers very sore..........
God I love this thing!

Thank You Jule!
