2 quick questions on this!? 1. Does it have a footswitch for one and off? Ie like a stomp box? 2. Can the presets be overwritten with your own creations/tweaks? Thanks.

You may already know that Chuck Rainey was asked by Steely Dan NOT to slap on "Peg" so during recording he turned his back and did it anyway. They ended up loving it 😊

Another vote for the Keeley Bassist although I did find a couple from new that had noise issues. Drive pedals .. best I ever used was Darkglass Omicron. Awesome pedal that kept your bass still sounding like a bass !

Sunday afternoon gig with the covers/original band at the Red Hart in Bodham. We were meant to be playing outside in the beer garden under the newly completed covered area (nice job) but the governor was worried by the forecast of thunderstorms and the likelihood of the rain being driven under the shelter (guess there are insurance implications). It was decided we should play indoors in the dining room but needed to wait until the end of the main service before setting up. I have been to jams and open mics in the dining room and wasn’t too impressed with the acoustics, so I was a bit apprehensive, especially as we had come equipped for playing outside. Fortunately, our drummer plays an electronic kit, so we can turn him down 😀. I had my two LFSys Monzas driven by a Blackstar U700, with a MB LMIII as standby. Basses: Guild Starfire 1 and a custom made P/J shorty. In the end I only connected the top cabinet and the guitarists just used their amps, with only vocals, drums and keys going into the PA. Somehow we managed to get a good sound, according to friends who had come to watch. I had the master on the U700 so low it was almost off but apparently could be heard throughout the pub: testament to the amazing projection of the LFSys cab. Unfortunately, waiting until the main service was over meant that we lost 50% of our audience and instead of a full beer garden, we ended playing to about a dozen people, with some leaving and new arrivals taking their place. The governor said he would normally have a full beer garden but the weather forecast had obviously kept the punters away. We were supposed to do a three hour stint but ended up doing an hour and 10 minutes for the first set and almost an hour for the next two sets. This was largely because the audience was appreciative and we decided to see if we could get through every song on the set list (bit of a paid rehearsal). Despite the temperature dropping it was very humid and with 5 of us crammed into the end of the room, it felt like a sauna. Anyway, we got good feedback from the punters and the governor has invited us back, so not a disaster. No pics: I must remember to take some next gig. Footwear: trainers to cope with being on my feet that long.

What are your thoughts with regards to the Sadowsky outboard preamp pedal? It keeps things real simple.

Anyone else doing the Black Sabbath live stream?
Cosmo Valdemar replied to Newfoundfreedom's topic in General Discussion
For me, the award for Best Tone goes to Mike Inez. That Warwick/Fishman bass redefined "angry piano". The bass was very well represented in the live stream throughout, apart from Pantera, oddly, which was a real shame as Rex is one of my favourite bassists. As it turned out Pantera were probably my biggest disappointment of the day though overall. What the hell was Zakk Wylde doing?! -

Electro-Harmonix Clone Theory Vintage Chorus Pedal NYC Made 70’s/80’s This is the one made famous in the 80’s by musicians including Peter Hook, John McGeoch and again later by Kirk Cobain. You can get sweeping chorus, subtle vibrato, to mad flange and synth like sounds from this unit. It’s a hard wired mains unit and the casing has plenty of dings and touch ups to the paint. It works perfectly and sounds great. These are quite rare now. I’ve owned two and this is the one that is all original. It’s an old pedal and like most vintage EH gear a bit noisy but it’s not a particular issue for live gigs.

Definitely played what appeared to be a 70's P bass. As per the previous leaked pics of the rehearsal room his rig was 2 x Fender Super Bassman's via 2 x Fender 8x10's

Maybe we could genesplice him with our drummer who starts to fast to get a drummer who starts at the correct tempo. -
