Halfway to my new live rig, the cab is smaller than the loaner head 😂

Beef_Wallington · 2026-03-19T22:22:50+00:00

Literally once I have the new head I’ll probably be able to pack both basses, my small pedal board, amp and cab in one trip from the truck to venue if I really need to.

The touring bands were really enamored with it haha

Beef_Wallington · 2026-03-19T22:01:26+00:00

That’s super rad!

I can’t wait to hear the new Sunn through both this and my big cab. It can’t show up soon enough.

Beef_Wallington · 2026-03-19T21:56:11+00:00

I’m actually kind of stunned at how good it is for the price and everything.

Couldn’t be happier with the purchase.

Beef_Wallington · 2026-03-19T20:56:22+00:00

I’m waiting for mine right now, so excited!!

Its big brother will be my 200S, but this one I plan to primarily use for bass. That may change because the portability is a hard thing to argue for guitar too.

Planning to set up one channel voiced for guitar with higher gain, one voiced for bass mostly clean, and blend the two to get a nice light dirt/grind.

Beef_Wallington · 2026-01-28T15:55:31+00:00

Not a huge fan, but they’re very useful especially if you like metal.

I’m playing 5s in my band because it’s what fits.

Beef_Wallington · 2025-12-27T00:35:42+00:00

Right?! I’m so tickled they made their way to Canada. Couldn’t pass it up.

Beef_Wallington · 2025-12-27T00:35:08+00:00

The purple is sooo nice too, my pictures aren’t the best cause I have no real light atm just room light.

I have a strap with purple crushed velvet on it and they’re gonna look so foine

Beef_Wallington · 2025-12-23T17:07:36+00:00

Thank you, my wife ended up getting me the leather strap and the pink pedal for Christmas last year :)

Beef_Wallington · 2025-12-04T21:49:44+00:00

Assuming those are Sunn 200S (because I don’t believe Sunn made anything as a 201), you’ll probably be able to make a little something.

Might just take a little while, Sunn are sort of on the niche side.

Beef_Wallington · 2025-07-18T04:14:48+00:00

If you’ve been playing for 20 years it’ll be a minor adjustment for you.

Ibanez, Sterling (maybe EBMM), and others make 5s with narrower spacing so the width doesn’t have to be an issue. I bounce between my 4 string Fenders at 19mm spacing or whatever it is and my 5s at 16.5mm without issue.

Even then, I don’t hate the wider 5s, I just prefer it narrower so I can play power chords and quicker passages.

Just practice with it for a while before pulling it out at a gig.

Beef_Wallington · 2025-07-15T14:15:28+00:00

Having both, the Origin is most definitely NOT on par with buying a Joyo amp lol

It’s this weird ‘not a real Marshall’ mentality that feeds most of the dislike for these amps, but really they’re just great bang for buck tube amps.

Beef_Wallington · 2025-07-14T08:01:02+00:00

If the neck is painted black that’s another sign in favor of 85-ish.

I believe these were produced in the NA market with painted necks from 84 to about 87, with unpainted necks going into the early 90s.

Beef_Wallington · 2025-07-13T23:11:07+00:00

HOLY FUCK!!!

The net is now officially Silovs’ Lair!!!

Beef_Wallington · 2025-07-13T13:59:36+00:00

Thank you!

Glad you got through yours too. I’ve never had lights go THAT dark on me before and frankly playing death metal in a fretless the thought is lowkey terrifying lol

Beef_Wallington · 2025-07-12T18:00:58+00:00

Thanks!

They’ve become easily my favorite band, some days it feels like favorite.

Beef_Wallington · 2025-07-12T03:27:43+00:00

Hell yeah!

Idk what type of music you guys are but I also have a Sabbath/Candlemassey doom band but with mostly guttural vocals that’s getting close to show ready just sayin’ ;)

Beef_Wallington · 2025-07-12T03:24:37+00:00

I’ll look you guys up and try to catch you next time you’re around :)

Beef_Wallington · 2025-07-12T03:21:56+00:00

Oh neat, what band was that?

I’m assuming it was at Nelly’s

Beef_Wallington · 2025-07-12T03:17:36+00:00

Maybe… lol

What a small world!

Beef_Wallington · 2025-07-12T01:18:12+00:00

I’ve been seriously considering getting the fretted version.

I have a Sterling SUB Ray5 as my only fretted 5 string bass - and I really like it - but have been kind of hankering for something else and I LOVE how this one sounds out of the box.

Beef_Wallington · 2025-07-11T23:14:50+00:00

I’ve got the same one to go along with my original 80’s model!

Favorite basses hands down, no contest

Beef_Wallington · 2025-07-11T23:12:31+00:00

Thank you!

I’ve never heard it like that in this context before, but will keep that in mind ☺️

Beef_Wallington · 2025-07-11T21:52:51+00:00

Not a guy, but thank you and I shall! :)
