Official Barefaced Bass Cab Club

[monsterthompson]

What do you think? Just one barefaced One10T cab is more than enough to handle a rock n roll drummer and 2 guitars distortion of partners in reharsals or need a pair of them to be listened?

One10T definitely not enough unless everyone plays with restraint and consideration for your volume.

Pair of One10 could be enough depending on the venue and what amps the guitarists are using. If you are outdoors and the guitarists have 412 cabinets then you will need more. If you are rehearsing at moderate volumes in a room with 112 combo amps, you should be okay.

Interesting. Normally, Alex says the Super 3rd sounds exactly the same as the Super Compact (and the Super 3rd T identical to the Super Compact T off course).

You haven't compared the Super 3rd T with the Super Compact T, have you?

I didn't ask him about sound, I asked about output.

It’s Alive!

My ST arrived a couple of days ago (just about 8 weeks from order date, with custom green baffle) and so far it’s lived up to all of Alex’s claims. It’s an incredibly responsive cab, both to playing and tonal adjustments. Most importantly for me, it stays coherent as you go louder and louder. I couldn’t max out my amp for all the rattling it was causing in my house but will test it out on a gig in about a week or so. Build quality is top notch, though the finish seems to want a few more days to off-gas. Not an issue in my book.

Shout out to Barefaced customer service too.

It is so refreshing to play through a cab that delivers a truly huge low end without compromising on clarity and mid range presence. And it has exactly the highs that I love.

Best rig I’ve ever owned in 40 years of playing. Big up Alex and Barefaced Crew

Wow that’s a stunner! That’s exactly what I’d get if I didn’t have a ST. Guess I need a different BF cab to customize

Two ST's would be glorious. Just sayin'

Gig night! Just finished sound check. Now off for band dinner and hang until 9pm showtime. I’ll be exercising my Super Twin with a Quilter BB800 and Tone Hammer DI.

Pretty decent stage in an outdoors beer garden. The crowd shows up after the rodeo wraps up. Gonna be cold when the sun drops.

Mini gig report…this was our first show of the year. We were well rehearsed for the tunes but the technical details of managing our own sound are the things that get easier with repetition. Had a couple misfires there, but nothing really disruptive to the evening. It’s always good to be reminded how great these cabs are out in the wild. Our best stretch of tunes had the whole crowd dancing for 15-20 minutes. And we got connected with another venue for a local gig.

Great looking cab! The ability to customize the front baffle is a really nice touch, which I appreciate a lot in mine.

...Which leads me to a poll question, of sorts. I did my first cab in Laos Green. I've been contemplating a second BB3. The question I'm mulling over right now is should the second cab be cyan, or also Laos green?

Cyan and Green would look really cool.

I would go the a purple one.

 

[rapidfirerob]

I wanted Cyan, but I was too late in making my decision. Barefaced shipped my cabs before the estimated date, the
rascals.

That settles it, you have to buy another one then.

 

[BlueTalon]

I think the two cabs he has is going to be it for him.

Ha! As Blue Talon said, that's it for me. Two cabs is plenty.

RED, It will look so much like CHRISTMAS..

PSA - When is small too small?

When the foot of your Two10ST gets pushed up into the cabinet during shipping. Barefaced - please update your design with wider diameter, possibly softer feet, to absorb wear and impact. @alexclaber

The foot of my old Walkabout for comparison.

I'm considering getting some wider feet or a set of black washers to mitigate the damage.

This is not a cab or feet issue, this is shipping damage. If this a new purchase from us, please contact us immediately by email so we can raise an insurance claim with DHL. We will need photos of the damage to the cab, photos of the inside and outside of the box showing all the protective packaging (blue foam and cardboard), and particularly the outside of the box where this impact happened.

We have shipped thousands of cabs with those feet and this plywood over the last decade and have had at most a handful suffer this kind of damage - it's impossible to make everything 100% resistant to shipping damage but we're very good at sorting out the few problems that happen.

I'm considering getting some wider feet or a set of back washers to mitigate the damage.

I can't imagine the force it must have taken to do that. The packaging from Barefaced is so robust they must have drove a truck over it.

Or a robot lost its grip and the box dropped 20 feet onto a concrete floor.
