Official Barefaced Bass Cab Club

Our new cats discovered my One10 cover when I was rearranging the closet. Anchovy approves!

I hadn't heard of Milkman until I saw your post so I had to go check it out. That's a cool little amp! It looks like the kind of amp that will probably sound great with a Barefaced 10 - and even better with six of them. :D

700W Bass Half and Half

Yeah...I'm thinking so too~
Right now I'm playing through one or two 1-15 JBL cabs and it sounds huge and fantastic. But those old cab's are big, heavy and awkward to move. One is probably the same weight as there Six10 and harder to move.
The Six10 should be a welcome change and upgrade.

I will probably need to put some foam pad, rig up some nonslip system, or put off to the side since this little head is only 12lbs.

I also have my old rack rig that an Ashly BP-41 pre-amp and a HUGE Yamaha Natural Sound amp that sounds amazing as well, HEAVY!

I play through a Mesa D-800+ or a G-K MB800, which are only about 5 pounds each. I use a sheet of rubber drawer liner on top of my Big Baby 2's and I've never noticed the amps move while practicing at home or when playing at a gig. It works well and, because the liner is black, you never notice it on top of the cabinet.

This isn't the exact one I bought, but it's the same thing: Rubber Drawer Liner at Amazon

Thanks for that! Perfect product for what I need. Just not moving around on top of the cab! .. And I like not being able seeing it.

I have two pedalboard, a Nano and a Nano+. The Nano has my indispensable items: Tuner, Compressor & EQ, so that is on top of my BB800 on top of my SC. Adding that grippy stuff to the flat part of the underside of the Nano keeps the whole shebang firm and unmoving. Great stuff!
 
How’s that One10 sound? I want one for studio recording (D.I/mic) Would be using multiple 4-5 string basses and lots of effectpedals.

It sounds great...old school, big in the low mids, round. The only drawbacks are that it's expensive and the vinyl covering has an unfortunate tendency to peel/split. I am very disappointed BF has not addressed this issue. There should be a better/more durable covering option...like thicker tolex.

I blame the glue. And I agree. It’s a silly problem on a high end product.

I thought this is addressed on newer builds. @alexclaber ?
 
That's entirely possible, although I am not aware. I owned a pair of One 10s (I should have kept 1...I do miss it.) and my only complaint was the "not all that robust" vinyl at this price point.

This issue did give me pause before buying the One10s. It came up during my pre-purchase research and your feedback was among the data points I was seeing. Alex indicated at some point in late 2019 or thereabouts that they had made some changes to address the peeling and I decided to give the One10 a shot. So far so good but, yeah, knock on wood.
