Second on the caveman thing. Works great.
These inexpensive transmitters work very good. I have a set of a different brand but I wouldn't be surprised if they both had the same guts. I get two and a half hours out of it which doesn't work for my gigs as I'm usually doing 3 to 5 sets. Have you ever ran yours from full charge to dead? If so, how long does it last?
That owner sold the place. The new owner has 3 or 4 favorite bands they rotate. We can't get our feets in the door.
No, but I have used them for over a couple hours straight and likely 4 or a little more off and on several times. I didn't need to charge them after the 4 or more round, but did for the heck of it. I think they said they were good for up to 8hrs. I need to just use them to see if I can get anywhere ear the 8hrs claimed.
I'm using them at home (for now) because a D'A cord got a short (after light use at home), so instead of another cord I thought these would be nice and ditch the cord coiled up laying around.
I don't recall ever seeing an Acoustic 810. Had an Ampeg 810 for a coupla years.
The place I was at last night had a house Ampeg 810 cab. Every band seemed to be using a different GK head with it. I was not complaining.I don't recall ever seeing an Acoustic 810. Had an Ampeg 810 for a coupla years.
Mine was a 'blue line', mid 70s SVT. It was "OK". For that kinda $ and that much PITA, I expect more than "OK". Sold it as soon as that gig ended.
Then I'm not the only one who's never seen one. They were asking $549. I think. Didn't have my readers....
That may have been its weight.
In anticipation of getting my SIT Power Steels, I slapped some Roto 66s on the '06 to be able to compare. When I first got the '06 I tried the Roto's and it was just OK. Today they sounded really good. Difference was I'm using the BBE Sonic Stomp (Maximizer) this time. (Can't explain what it does, but does something subtly that does make a difference. I never turn it off now.) There was a little odd honk at times when it was just me, but not bad at all. Sounded good with fingers and pick. I really liked the GHS Precision Flats, but these sounded good enough to leave on. Therefore, I'm really looking forward to the SITs to arrive later this week. Very optimistic! By the way, I love playing this bass.
That's a Guiter Center Asoustic, not ACC. Only weighs about 140 pounds. I don't think you would find it to be anything special. Worth about half what they want for it.
I saw people taking video, but I don’t know any of them. I’ll message the singer and see if she can get some clips at least.Need sound Irv!
I threw a little titebond in there, gave it about three hours and put the strings on. I don't like CNA for that either.
I have only played through an 810 a few times. Once a fridge with an SVT 450 SS. That was underwhelming.
The other time was with my PF50T. I’d get one if I had the room.
GKs sound great through them, but I think that's more the GK than the Ampeg. I have yet to find a cab they don't sound good through.
