  1. Past hour
  2. I've been a 'start flat' eq guy for the last four or five years, but I've started boosting my mids a bit. It's brought positive comments.
  3. Will let you know if it does mate. Hes put a deposit down on it so I'm pretty sure everything will go through. Will know by Wednesday
  4. I liked the MB gear i had and i have often thought about going back to it. My only concern was i couldn't hear it on stage but it always sounded great from the audience point of view and they sit so well in a mix especially if you have keys in the band. Must admit i'm liking the BF 212 cab as i can stand directly in front or even to the side of it and i can still hear it quite well. The Mesa cabs are good but not if you have to stand directly in front of them. The sound is thrown past you. Dave
  5. You might be right, I get a softer but still punchy sound with Lionel which might be better in a pub situation. I tend to use a Stingray on club gigs, it’s a bit more in your face and carries better in awful WMC rooms. Ive often thought about looking at alternative amp/cabs but I just feel at home with Markbass.
  6. Its nice getting a compliment at a gig. Its funny but i think the equipment you use makes a difference to what the audience hear. When i was using my VM4 into a SS head and my Mesa cabs i get comments. When i use the Handbox WB-100 into the same cabs i don't. I'm wondering if the SS or now using the TT800 have more edge than the valve amp and people just pick up on it. Valve amps have more depth of tone IMO but they don't have that fast attack or edge of a modern amp. Just a curious thought !!! Dave
  7. Now £349 as I sold the second Tung Sol tube separately. Sale includes the Tung Sol fitted in the pedal and the original Sovtek tube.
  8. The Wind Cries Mary - Jimi Hendrix
  9. Blowin’ Free - Wishbone Ash
  10. I have the crowning thingymejig and the fret end bevel tool. I was initially a bit sceptical of the crowning tool but can confirm it does a grand job as does the bevel tool. You'd still need a file to initially file down the high spot though
  11. Probably a long shot but you don't have a Morningstar Relay Interface, do you @Higgie?
  12. That looks amazing ! GLWTS
  13. This has reminded me of a band i saw last summer at Arctangent Festival. I thought id just stop for a couple songs before heading to the bar but ended up staying for the whole set. Sleepytime Gorilla Museum have a whole lot of strange and an excellent name There was also a band called Clown Core who were incredibly weird but im still suffering PTSD from their visuals.
  14. Pair of Marshall Guv’nors up for grabs. On the left is the original MK1, made in England model, on the right, the slightly later (but still vintage) Korean model, including box. Both are well used (MIE model especially) but both still working well and sound great. The occasional crackle from a knob (they are both 30+ years old) but nothing majorly affecting use. £150 each, including uk postage.
  15. Please let me know if this sale falls through, I hope it doesn't for you but....
  16. Today
  17. Back to pub land last night for Glam Viva after a run of WMCs. A great lively pub in Brimington just outside Chesterfield, The Butchers Arms, a great live music venue. I was a bit under the weather as I’m on a short course of nasty antibiotics but, bucket at the ready we soldier on. Fortunately the bucket wasn’t needed and the good hormones lifted me. Got a compliment on my playing from a drummer in another band…..that’s the second time in ten years, I’ll try not to let it go to my head 😂 Sandberg Lionel into my usual Markbass rig and red/white/blue sequinned Converse Chucky Ts.
  18. Intrigued by their fret filing/crowning gadget. One thing I don't have is a good set of files and I'd only be using them for sorting rogue high frets anyway.
  19. Strange fret spacings on the bass and guitar necks.
  20. Grey embossed strap now sold.
  21. Both of these items are awesome sounding. Glwts, I can’t imagine these items being around for long.
  22. I’ll pm you, as per the rules.
  23. New incarnations for both boards. New songs keep giving me new requirements, so the big board has padded out, but I decided to finally get my head properly around the HX Stomp for the little board. Quite some time spent with EQs this morning bringing the Boctaver up to scratch.
