when i was at the ford dealer getting some parts for my shop, i noticed a ford taurus svt in the lot and asked them if i could purchase some of those badges. i think it was around 2000 when i put those on both my heads. i thought they looked cool.

That's pretty funny! I noticed it, but it didn't register in my brain what it was.

Here's the custom three-pickup 4001FL from last night's pre-St. Pat's Day show at McDonough's Irish Pub in Denver. A guy in the headlining band was nice enough to say to me, "I want THAT bass now!" I kept my eye on it the rest of the evening...
(The mic is wrapped in a dish rag because it was shocking my lips! Ugh.)
Also note the new fEarful 15/6 cab, by Low Down Sound. I love it!

Cool pics Joshua and Jeffrey! Joshua, stop kissing the mic!
McDonough's Irish Pub in Denver...I think I've been there!
Jeffrey knows I've become interested in possibly getting a LDS cab. I'm thinking I'd like one with 4, 5 or 6 eight inch speakers, if they make 8's that have neodymium magnets.
I'd like to get more feedback on the sound of their cabs.
NO HORN TWEETER! Horn tweeters in bass cabs?! BLECCCCH!

What's your configuration Jeff? Mine's a 15 + 6 ("fEarful") design from TalkBass. Amazing deep lows and clear highs. No tweeter.

McDonough's turned out to be pretty cool once it got hoppin'. I'd be happy to go back there on a busy weekend. We had a great crowd. I'll work on my infatuation issues...

Mine sounds awesome. Don is a great builder and the fEarful designs are geared to clear, deep sound. After shipping it cost me $617... worth every penny, IMO. Don Oatman (the builder) is pretty backlogged right now and eventually moving to Seattle. Definitely don't waste your time with a nasty tweeter, my 6.5'' mid driver goes up to 7 kHz no problem, and the majority of my signal stops cold around 5-6 kHz.
To me, the fEarful 15/6 design is far superior to any combination of 10s and 15s alone.

Not to derail the thread any further, I have take quotes from the post prior to this one and started a thread in Mikey's forum: Area 51 The Quest for Tone.
Putting this link below because I know many of the bassists don't venture far from the Rickenbacker Basses Forum of the RRF!
