Barefaced Bass - Ultra lightweight high power bass guitar speaker cabinets

30/06/25 - Upsizing 1215BB - NL

Good afternoon!

I've been using your Upsizing 1215BB mostly with 2 amps now (an Ampeg V2 and a Peavey Bass Mark III 400BH because the Ampeg alone still struggles to produce enough low end), and came to the conclusion that for when there's space, the Peavey deserves its own cab.

Would you think a Six10 or Six10T would be the right call there? Consider that most of my instruments are more guitar than bass... with some overlap at times due to tunings (KC Jag with EGC baritone neck tuned to octave tuning and flat, so low D#1 for example), and I do also have a bass guitar incoming. For dirt pedals and such it depends on the guitar, with 7 string (which is tuned to F) I use a JPTR FX Death Saw (HM2 with clean blend and bass boost... kinda) into the Peavey after using a KMA Tyler Deluxe to split off low passed signal for the bass amp (and a Muff style fuzz with added HM2 tone stack in parallel with the Muff tone stack into just the Ampeg), for the Jag I use a Does It Doom Elder God before the Tyler Deluxe (so goes to both amps).

Somehow the HM2-ness gets a bit too much with the Jag. The bass guitar is a Yamaha BB735A, not sure where that will go tuning wise yet.

For some context: doom metal two piece, just drummer and myself with ridiculous guitar tunings and too many amps to compensate for lack of bass player.

Thank you in advance for your time.

Kind Regards,

Rogier

Hi Rogier,

Six10 I think! I don't think you'll need the tweeter with the Upsizing going too! How's the Upsizing compared to your old rig?

Best regards,

Alex

Sounds like the regular Six10 should be a good fit then indeed. Was also looking at the 12” cabs you make but I feel like that’s decidedly not what I’d want tone wise. They sound great, don’t get me wrong, but far too precise to fit into a wall of fuzz well. I can definitely see why you’d prefer them yourself though.
