  1. Past hour
  2. I’ve never seen them before so will consider it, depending on cost etc
  3. Downsizing my various rig combinations and going for more analogue in keeping with my advancing years !!!!! The Kemper Profile Player, the most complete serving of professional Kemper amp tones and studio-grade FX, in a compact gig-ready package which requires only the floorboard space of two standard distortion pedals the Profiler Player turns any pedal board into an arena-grade touring rig that fits in every guitar bag. The Kemper Profiler Player offers the full arsenal of Kemper bass tones ranging from Ampeg B15, SVT's through Bassman's, Marshall Plexi's, Acoustic and Sunn and the more "modern sounds of GK, Mesa Engineering, Hartke and Darkglass to name a few. The Profiler Player features three freely assignable footswitches and the essential control knobs and buttons. The comfortable on-board LED system provides detailed visual feedback on the current device status at all times. For digging deeper into every aspect of the FX, enter Rig Manager, the only guitar amp control and editing solution that is available for all relevant platforms. Compatibility with Phones and Tablets for connecting to Rig Manager Seamlessly edit your tones and sound library with your phone or smart device. The Kemper Profiler Player can be connected with Apple, Android, Kindle Fire, macOS, and Windows - all you need is the free app that can be found on App Stores and the Kemper Website. Massive Sound Library of 444 FX The Player offers a massive, well-curated selection of 136 different FX settings from the legendary Kemper Profiler FX arsenal of over 444 FX presets in total. All the important tools of the trade are just ready to be engaged with the next switch! The Player’s signal chain comprises of 4 effect blocks in addition to the amplifier stack. Up to two effects can be placed "pre" the amp stack, and another two "post" the amp. The post-amp modules of the effect chain are ideal for delay and reverb effects. Both delay and reverb offer "spillover" at any time, meaning the sonic tail is not cut off when changing to another Rig. DI for FoH and I have always been complimented on the sound of my rigs !!!!!! The aftermarket Retrovision screen is a game changer for live and is no longer being imported into UK from Netherlands. All original packaging and power supply included Current price is £649 and the screen was £89 so both for £ 430 posted is a bargain
  4. Hellfire tools look really good and so cheap too! Thanks for the list, I have a small amount off that list already and it won’t be too costly to get the rest. If I tidy up my workshop I might find I have more than I think. 😂

  7. I'm not a fan of mini pedals either but my favourite pedal ever, the Mooer Ambient A7 is a mini pedal and its amazing. I also agree that this larger sized pedals I usually turn sideways. I have two, a Sansamp BDDI v2 and a Harley Benton Chorus and they are turned sideways on my Pedaltrain board as it gives me more room. I'm also not a fan of these footswitches, for me, the best design is the Boss ones.
  8. I’ve been on the lookout for a cheap Bass or something a bit worn/bashed that I can leave around the house & take to jam nights. Nothing really coming up. There’s a Guitar Show coming to the North West in May. Has anyone been to one of these? Are there many Basses there? Are there better deals to be had than normally in the shops? Is it worth waiting for?
  9. Not up for spending £300+ for ticket to watch a tired nostalgia act from the back of some soulless, cavernous enormodrome, doing precisely what they swore they would never do. Last time I saw them they were touring a concept album which was the best thing they'd done in decades. And a fitting end point to a remarkable career as artists and performers. Happy to leave it there, personally.
  10. Plays beautifully, nice low action. Unfortunately the preamp died and Sire were unwilling to sell me a replacement as it wasnt under warranty and they dont sell parts to the public, so Ive wired the bass passive 2 volumes and a tone control - no need for batteries anymore The Sire pickups sound amazing passive and have a real vintage feel, adding the 2 pickups together gives a more modern sound, I think you will struggle to find a better bass for £200, the quality and build are excellent, its up there with my USA Fender bass in both sound and playability but for a fraction of the cost.

  11. I had to get an L1000 rewound. Catswhiskers did it. I asked him specifically to log the construction so that I could get another one done should I need it.
  12. Yep, heard last week that this was to be announced today. Will try for tickets but if they're as expensive as I'm expecting, I may have to sadly withdraw from going...
  13. From a functionality POV, the only benefit I can see is that the switches aren't too cramped together. I've run into exactly this issue with the JAM Rattler, anyone with a foot larger than a size 4 is almost guaranteed to press the on switch and boost together. (There's a cheap workaround however - a switch topper on the main switch that's used.)
  14. I'm going to Toronto in August, I've seen them maybe 20 times over the years, they're my all-time favourite band. I'm really stoked to see what they'll do with the songs and the staging, it won't be Rush, that band died with Neil Peart, but Lee and Lifeson are way too good to quit, Anika Nilies is a phenomenal drummer and it'll be a chance to see how those boys play their music in a different format. I'll be trying for tickets for the O2 in 2027 too.
  15. I think it's for people with big feet and/or chunky boots! Especially ones who are a bit more energetic on a dark stage - they don't like the switches being too close together.
  16. I started with Pitchpipes, coming from an acoustic guitar background… When I joined my first band, the guitarist used a tuning fork, so I went out & got one for myself… Tuning up was a nightmare at rehearsals with everyone making a racket at the same time, whilst everyone tried to tune? A Boss tuner was out of my reach, funds being tight but I did eventually buy a Seiko chromatic tuner which proved to be a revelation only problem being it had no ‘through’ output, so I couldn’t keep it ‘in-line’ & had to unplug to play… We’re totally spoilt these days with what’s available?
  17. Looking forward to meeting as many of you as possible at the show this weekend!
  18. First of all, congrats on taking this from an idea to an available product with website! I see you've already acted on some of the earlier feedback, i.e. the background on how you ended up in China etc. As the site develops - and I do appreciate that all this is a work-in-progress - you might consider tweaking some of the copy or rethinking how you present your key selling points. All the info you have up there is good, but I think some of it could be reorganised for clarity. For example, I'd take this paragraph from its place in the middle of your FAQ "Our mission is to deliver powerful low-end, enhanced articulation, and unwavering stability—transforming your instrument without losing its soul. This is for players who demand consistency, reduced playing effort, and the elimination of dead spots, in any environment." ...and place it in its own section on the home page. For example: An Aurok composite transforms your instrument without losing its soul. Our necks offer Powerful low end and enhanced articulation Unwavering stability in any environment Precision and consistency for an optimized playing experience Others have pointed out that your workshop photos aren't what they expect! Perhaps there's a wider marketing point that people associate what they perceive as a high tech product with a high tech manufacturing process - whether or not that's the case in reality. Careful photography will help. But maybe there's also an opportunity to tie manufacturing in China with the high tech aspect, presenting it as the ideal location for technical expertise and value. Tap into the growing awareness in the music world that Chinese manufacturing isn't automatically associated with a lower quality product. I'm sure your previous construction products company has given you valuable experience bridging the gap between western clients and Chinese businesses? I would be bigging that up. Anyway, just another random internet person's food for thought.
  19. I have one of these and it's a great bass - it's more versatile than you would think and it looks so cool. Also the neck and frets are amazing. Good luck with the sale.
  20. I think the basses he used in those iconic studio vids have way more historical meaning. Still looks like nice pair of original Dimarzios which are worth having
  21. Someone please buy this bass and take temptation away from me .....
  22. Apart from mini pedals, which are just nonsense, I really can't work with pedals shaped like the Tone Hammer V2 or Vintage Ultra, especially compared to the Tone Hammer V1 or Vintage Deluxe which have a much more sensible shape/form. Reducing the length above/below the pedal achieves nothing, I'm not putting anything there.... but then increasing width just means you're eating up board space. Really illogical design if you spend more than 5 secs thinking on it. Not sure why this type of format is being pushed more and more, it doesn't make sense for common brands of board like Pedaltrain, maybe it's a cheap chassis? (Both companies now owned by Korg so it makes sense quality would eventually diminish in favour of cost-cutting...) I've owned both of these, and almost immediately gone back to the previous versions as this form-factor is a hindrance.
  23. If in a three piece... the guitarist, anything more then whoever's standing closest to me. Still do as bass pitch is nowhere near as critical as treble pitch.....I can 'tune up' in a sec just listening the overal din onstage.
