Last night was at the pub closest to my house - the Gamecock in Birchmoor, about a ten minute walk over the M42 footbridge (but about a five minute drive as you have to go the long way round). We got a whole room with a goodly amount of space but not a very big audience - scraped into double figures. However, they were very very enthusiastic and the landlord wants us back, and a farmer who was there said he'd like to get us in to play in his barn.

Is the fuse on the high side (i.e. mains side of the transformer) or between the PSU and the amp or speaker outputs?

Got one done again just in time... Hey, what's the rush? Life's too hectic. Take a stroll, breathe a little and just enjoy being in the moment. Eko 12 string acoustic, Vester Catalina P-Bass, Westfield Les Paul, Yamaha keys and a drum sample from Looperman. Recorded without any bells and whistles with Wavepad and Audacity.

Found this new dealer exclusive shell pink Euro Classic 4 and 5, seems like they have a regular classic version and one with the roasted neck (check the paint / natural finish transition at the heel) Some German and Japaneese dealers have them, though I have no idea about worldwide availability or exclusivity. Cool color and I must say it is a great time to be a Spector aficionado, even if my wallet does not think so.

As it turns out, me. Decided to put my big boy pants on and get the tedious stuff started at least. So now, the area around the neck pocket looks a bit less like someone attacked it with a router and ran away. There's still quite a sharp transition into the new shape, but I've got it about as good as I can be bothered with. All done the old fashioned way, with sandpaper round various diameters of dowel etc. - I must be mad, but I'm in a real anti power tool mood today, just can't be bothered with the noise, I think!

Had also been asked about the weight of this: 4.15 kg / 9.15 lbs -
A trip from Tyneside across the other side to Liverpool for another Eagles tribute gig. Big brewery / shed type venue - lovely room, lovely staff, top-drawer PA & techs. No monitors, so had to grin and bear IEMs. Still don't love them. New MIJ Jazz - with new pickups - continues to be my friend.

Sadowsky Metroline PJ german made Sadowsky in ocean blue it’s in great condition, comes with Sadowsky case At some point the pick up knob has been swapped round so it’s ‘normal’ You don’t see many P style Sadowsky, most P/J basses seem to be based on there Jazz body I will get some better photos tomorrow as these are awful Im in Manchester and if you don’t know me then check my feedback Tony

Sheer madness! - Today

No, we haven't tried someone else holding the mic. It'll be the next step, as the desk is new, the mic is new as was the cable at the last practice.

I'm so glad you liked them, I'm always nervous when recommending expensive kit.

Hi John, it's good that you are moving forwards. We all get things wrong I was playingat a brewery on Fri and forgot to turn on the speakers. Nothing to do with craft beer of course First of all you are less likely to make mistakes once you start using the CQ mixer, you can see straight away if a chnnel is overloading on the meters. You can also save the mix once you have it right. A friend and quite a good sound tech offered to mix out front for us on Fri. Once I'd switched the speakers on he listened for a couple of minutes and said 'it sounds good, nothing for me to do'. That's the same mix you heard a coupleof weeks back and the one we've used for about 5 consecutive gigs. The second thing was suggested by Mike my duo partner. "Why not do what we do" which is that we rehearse with the monitors, then halfway through rehearsal we turn them off and point the PA at ourselves and rehease with that. It gives you plenty of time to get the settings right between songs and you know exactly what the audience are hearing without disrupting a rehearsal. Save or make a not of settings and you have a starting point for the gigs which will work, with perhaps a bit of tweaking to match the room.

....22kg btw but the oomph of a loud 4x10 -
It’s a thick, gnarly, and harmonically rich fuzz … Based on the Tall Font Green Russian/ Civil War Muff circuit … So strong with that mix friendly mid character, and retaining the low end that makes this particular Muff so bass-friendly. This one is indeed bass friendly. There’s something more to this pedal though. The secret sauce is in the tone sweep. As DBA put it … “A specially designed multi-curve shaping filter which changes the timbre of the pedal from super deep bass sludge to screaming highs”. This makes for something more versatile than your average 3-knob Muff, sure. It’s killler. Plenty love for it out there anyway. Check the reviews.

Beautifully crafted delay pedal from Walrus Audio, tactile, with a really intuitive control set … feature rich, but simple to use. It’s a piece of kit that invites creativity. Works very well with bass guitar. No mud at all. The quality in this pedal is obvious to the ear … But hey, there are many fine words about the Arp87 around internetland if you do some trawling.

Great pedal ! Glwts -
If you like drones, long, Indefinitely held notes or passages, to sculpt, build and move between layers, morph ambient textures … in their own right, to solo over, or to underpin a multi layer bass part … Then one of these is worth looking at. It does everything the Freeze does, but so much more. Most notable for me was its own effects loop, and the possibilities for signal chain placement and the potentially endlessly added depths to the frozen effect that the loop affords, whilst keeping your realtime bass licks otherwise unaffected, if so desired. The options and degree of functionality are wild. It’s an extremely versatile and powerful creative tool that opens a world of musical possibilities. Check out the YouTube bass demos, and EHX product info … It’s deep. I must say … I love this pedal, and wouldn’t be selling it had I not recently acquired a Superego + Royal Mail ‘Signed For’ postage is included in price (UK only).

One of the harder to find pedals from the increasingly collectible 7 Series Tonelok range. It’s an excellent phaser for bass, with a wide array of control options that allow you to the scope to craft a useable mix-friendly phase tone. The effect operates at unity, with no lift nor drop in volume, and no loss of low end whatsoever. Though fundamentally a phaser, the PM7’s modulation capabilities can extend to territories way beyond the norm. The control set achieves the following … Speed: adjusts the speed of the vibrations. They become faster the more this is turned to the right. Depth: adjusts the depth of the vibrations. They become deeper the more this is turned to the right. Manual: Adjusts the level of the phase-shifted tone. The level is increased and the effect strengthened the more this is turned to the right. Feedback: Adjusts the amount of feedback. Turning this to the right applies normal-phase feedback, and turning it to the left applies inverted-phase feedback. In either case, the sound will become more distinctive. Mode 1/2/3: Selects from three types of phases … - 4-stage phaser with invertedphase mix. Vintage sound. - 6-stage phaser with invertedphase mix. Deep phasing sound. - 6-stage phaser with normal-phasemix. Deep phasing sound. Waveform: Selects the modulation waveform (the "shape" of modulation). - Triangle wave: Produces conventional phaser sounds. - Square wave. Produces step-sequencer-like sounds. - High-frequency wave. Produces sounds like a ring modulator or FM synthesizer. The Ibanez 7 Series pedals are the bomb. The Maxon engineers were thinking outside the box, to be sure.

Amazing job, looks great

Hiya BTops, I was definitely very wary at first as the Artec pickup only has 55mm gubbins inside the cover, and originally I was going for a 30 deg slant on it but realised there's no way the pickup would cater for E & G at that angle. I was sweating a little at 15 deg but after putting the neck and strings back on once PG arrived, after firing it up (still not yet set up correctly as I have to take neck off again to paint headstock) I can say ATM there is no discernible drop in volume at G. For my defence, I'll blame it on the camera angles, which is partly true but G is a little further away from E and I've picked up on that too, I will need to move bridge ~1.5 to 2mm toward G in the near future. But either that Artec has a bit more sphere of influence than I thought, just blind luck or something else but G sounds as loud as E, A and D, maybe I'm lucky - usually I'm not on my builds. 😁 Blind luck mate. Here a pic from a different angle and bridge will need re-positioning at some stage - not a biggy have plenty of matchsticks and Araldite 👍
