    Darkglass Anagram

    I have the same issue and have been playing email ping pong with Darkglass support for the last two weeks. In their most recent email they suggest sending my a replacement PSU which is worth trying but I have low confidence it will resolve the problem.
  4. If the JB4 neck turns out nice you may get a decent amount of repeat business just from me!
  5. Ride The Lightning - Metallica
  6. Personally I feel culture is something to be shared and celebrated by everyone. I think if you are celebrating and sharing culture it’s not appropriating it but absorbing it, being influenced by it and changing your mindset and behaviour because of it. It’s a positive not a negative thing. Appealing to soldiers not to blindly follow orders, which I think this song is about, is as relevant to any culture or race and no more so than in the current world situation.
  7. Hi, northwest from memory
  8. Music is music, as long as you don't drop words without their respective pass
  9. Bristol has Elevator Sound https://www.elevatorsound.com/?srsltid=AfmBOop4A2d-1vjoEEkt-LT-NSxJs0OchGEyMImZZiXs1yPOaDQu9fn0
  10. There is no official character named "Growler" in the Thomas the Tank Engine series; however, the term "Growler" is sometimes used by fans to describe the sounds a diesel engine makes or in unofficial fan creations, such as the "Growler the Goods Diesel" fan character found on platforms like DeviantArt. google AI. 🤣
  11. Or a Cort Space 4 or 5 for less money.
  12. Cheapo plywood or multi laminate? It's all in the wording.
  13. Lightning Strikes The Postman - The Flaming Lips
  14. Justin Meldal-Johnsen is the guy with the cool hair and the man with the moustache is Veejay drummer with Kaiser Chiefs
  15. Hi, For sale the above, in full working order and great condition. Not needed now, recording finished. Price includes UK Mainland Delivery.
  16. Today
  17. OK, I will have to ask - Who is he? And the other chap with the 'tache and glasses? (JMJ = Jean-Michelle Jarre in my world.)
  18. You'll have to ask someone who is culturally adjacent to the song. The majority here are grey haired white men.
  19. Like many people, I've really appreciated having companies like BassBros and Bass Direct around to buy/sell/trade basses with. I wondered if anyone knows of any similar shops for synthesizers/rack effects/studio gear. Perhaps an opening for SynthSisters?
  20. So ..guitarist one starts, I play my low E, drummer triggers the bell.... I look at the drummer and say...are we in the right key? Second guitarist joined in...two guitarists nailing it...I'm so far off I literally have to stop playing....total panic ..I've forgotten what key...noo...can't have......
  21. I was in the big time Saturday night at The Bend Theatre with the full Maple Road band.. Sunday we had an acoustic gig and back in reality. It was an okay acoustic gig. We were background music for an event sponsored by wine makers and vendors. Daryl
  22. About 6-8 weeks to get to the point where the website can be started, depending on build time for the sample necks
  23. I wouldn't call it hideous, but it does suffer from the fact that Les Paul came up with one of the most attractive guitar shapes ever and anything that bears a faint resemblance but is out of proportion seems really really wrong. Plus the control section of the scratchplate is truly horrendous.
  24. There are so many compositions that have real meaning ('If I Had A Hammer', 'Blowing In The Wind', 'Sunday, Bloody Sunday' and hundreds more...). Personally, I'd much rather play stuff with real meaning than innocuous, bland, 'filler' stuff, whatever culture it's originally from. To me, human is human; the rest is simply coincidence of birth time and place. I see no problem here. Peace.
  25. I bought the Ray5 a little while ago with the intention of replacing the preamp and possibly the pickup. My initial installation of a preamp made on an OSH Park PCB didn't work, which subsequently I suspect was due to a flat battery (doh!). I bought a Classic Preamp kit from Musikding and installed that instead. I put a connector on the PCB and the battery clip so I could remove the entire scratchplate if necessary without any unsoldering. When I got the Squier Vintage Modified Modified, it had a Warman MM pickup in the bridge position. As the pole pieces weren't best spaced for it, I replaced it with an Aguilar MM pickup which was a far better fit, leaving me with a Warman pickup with both coils nicely accessible. So I connected the coils in parallel and replaced the original pickup with that. Again, that was fitted with a connector with the bridge wire going to the ground side. The pots have 1/4" shafts which aren't as easy to get knobs for as 6mm shafts. Bloody primitive measuring systems. However, I did find a set of brass flat top knobs on Ebay which look rather nice on it. I'm pleased with the sound. Will be doing some more playing around.
