Yes it is a Peavey DPC1400X power amp that I run bridged - it's putting 1400 watts into that 4 ohm cab.

Ah yes, 700 per channel, 1400 bridged.. I couldn't remember the specs for that puppy. I wanted one several years ago but couldn't afford to upgrade from my existing rig.

This is my first post.
Some of you will know me from talkbass and bassworld.co.uk (which I help run). Ken, I'm glad you set this forum up because if you hadn't then I would have eventually :) FWIW here's my trio of BSRGN's: http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y22...s/DSCF0343.jpg PS: Hello Gareth nice to see you here too. |

Do you guys know that I have a collection of *olde English Double Basses (c1775-c1830) and still have one of two English *Bultitude Bows (1962 and 1964 make) as well (*Former Hill shop maker). It's nice to know that I have a British following as well as me having an affinity for the English Violin making school of yesteryear. |
Hey Dave, fancy seeing you here :) Good luck in selling the TN6 :) I wish it could be mine. I should get get Ari and Gwylim from BW on here too, Ari's got a lovely TN5.
Ken have you seen the collection of instruments at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London yet? |
In London?

Well, if you ever make it over there, they've got on display the giant 3 string double bass which was owned by Dragonetti and made by Gasparo da Salo. Allegedly it was used for performances of Handel's Water Music - its a complete monster. I can't begin to imagine what a performance on one of those must have been like.

d'Salo..

Can we expect a Smith double bass any time in the future? :)

huh?

I like my old Basses mainly as my personal preference. If I want a newer Bass, there are some great makers out there already doing it like Arnold Schnitzer and Jeff Bollbach which did make a beautiful Lion's head Bass which by chance, I now own. ;) http://www.kensmithbasses.com/Double...mages/lion.jpg |

Refinished Bsrb6
6 Attachment(s)
This is my 99 Bsrb6 that I am refinishing. I bought it used and decided to give it a new look and sound . I upgraded the Burner pickups and Circuit to Smith flat top pickups and a new 18v Circuit. Here are some before and after pics. This definately is my fav and main bass now.

Here are a few shots of my four string (Tiger Wood obviously) with the 18 volt system nicely fitted inside.

Internal Question
Does your '05 BSR6P have the 18 volt system or the 9 volt?
Either way the wood is beautiful, was the bass created especialy for you by Ken, or did you aquire it else where? http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m...ito/BT6_Fr.jpg '05 BSR6P http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m...ito/BSR_Fr.jpg[/quote] |

LOL! As tempting as it would be to respond to that, I'll force myself to refrain...LOL! : ) I would like to see it if possible.
Had a girlfriend huh? Hmmm, hope it didn't end over a "backside" issue! LOL! |
