  1. Past hour
  2. Territorial Pissings - Nirvana ‧ 1991
  3. Nice one my friend 👍
  4. wee're not gonna take it - Twisted sister
  5. Free to a good home - a pair of 1990’s “OMP Linnet” PA speakers . These were sold by BK Electronics (who also had made the well-known OMP Mosfet modules for many years ) – see attached advert from 1992. With 12” LF driver & Piezo tweeter. Rated at 200W RMS each , 8 Ohm , 45Hz -20KHz. Connections are ¼” jack socket (plus 3-pin XLRs as was fashionable at the time ! ) . 510mm tall x 380 wide x 305 deep (20”x 15” x12”) , about 16KG each . Top hat for mounting on a 35mm speaker pole. I have had these for about 20 years - they were briefly used for general purpose PA vocal duties in a band (for which they were fine) , since when they have sat unused at home. I have tested them at low volume and they still seem to work as expected (including the tweeters) though I’m not in a position to try them at higher volume at home. Cosmetically they are in good condition with a few scuffs here and there but nothing major. Obviously technology had moved on and they are a bit old-fashioned these days (or should that be retro & vintage ?! ) but they should still do the job for vocals and such in a rehearsal room or small gigs. Free but you will need to collect them in person from me in Brentford TW8 (about 1 mile from M4 J2) - I will definitely not deliver or post them ! Any questions please message me. Cheers, Pete
  6. Well, I never thought the day would come that I’d be selling this bass because of arthritis. When I ordered this bass I was attempting to create my perfect version of a Gibson EB3 style bass without the things that frustrate me about Gibson basses in general. I have to say that I was, and still am, very pleased with the result. A great gigging bass with a good variety of tones to hand, from deep and rich to very punchy. Weight is just over 4kgs. The bass is in excellent condition having bee cherished all its life. It will come with a gig bag. AGH is a small one-man builder in Leek (when I picked this up, Alex said that was pausing new builds, but that may be old info now). I also have some pics of the build process if anyone would like to see them. Spec.: · Body - Cherry with Indian Rosewood top and radiussed body edges (not beveled) · Finish - Natural satin · Scale length - 32” with 21 vintage-style frets + zero fret · Neck - 5-pc Maple/Wenge (neck through with angled 2 over 2 with Gibson-esque headstock · Nut width – 43mm · Fretboard - Rosewood with 20" radius · Side dots - Luminlay · Bridge - BadAss II · Electronics - Passive: Volume, Blend, Tone, Series/Parallel mini switch for Artec EBC4 · Pickups Neck - Artec EBC4 Mudbucker (placement per early 70s EB-0 / EB-3) · Bridge – Thunderbird-style · Strap locks - Dunlop Dual Design · Tuners - Lightweight Gotoh keys · Hardware colour - Chrome · Strings - D’Addario EX170BT I would probably prefer a meet up to hand over the bass if at all possible or collection from me if you’re nearby. I might consider a courier if either of the preferred options is not possible. Clearly there would be some additional cost involved. There’s an NBD thread here: Here are some pics. Happy to answer any questions, do more pics and for anyone to try the bass out here. Thanks for looking.
  7. The artists playing the festival have always been paid little or nothing because it was all about raising money for charity. Most of the stages are independently run, the festival only books bands for the main stages
  8. Someone needs to say "NOW SOLD" 😎
  9. There’s a shop on Hallgate called ‘Fret - Don’t Fret’, Rockem music are in nearby Rotherham, and there are quite a few in Sheffield including Rich Tone ( recommended ) and Wizard guitars. Doncaster was where players from my area used to go to for great shops, such as the great Electro Music, sadly no more.
  10. See Her Pee - NOFX
  11. I bought a Tec21 VT Bass DI from Paddy and it was a perfect transaction - comms, packaging etc. Very happy customer here, thank you!
  12. voting is up, great work again dudes , brilliant stuff
  13. These months just seem to fly by, but then, we get get to hear the great new jazzfunkpunk creations from @Leonard Smalls who was on fire again in MAy. So we fired up the DAW once again and showed how the following picture inspired us. "Here's a pic. it's of some UFOs I saw while on a plane to Geneva a few years ago." Have a listen through and vote for your favourite 3 tracks 1 @Al Nico amongst Us Inspired as we all are by alien music, I created this short piece in Canis Minor, building sounds on synths that portray typical sounds heard during alien encounters, including deep low bass. All dynamics have been removed to capture and portray the natural sound, feel and anxiety of being probed in a busy alien space craft hospital. 2 @Chiliwailer Jammin' with E.T. - is inspired by how I imagine it'd sound when jamming with E.T. at 30,000 feet. 3 @Baloney Balderdash So I put on Syd Barrett's spectacles, and this is what happened... : 4 @Leonard Smalls A punkyfunky thing based on a true story told by a lovely old man (Herr Wilhelm Lügner) in my local pub... 5 @upside downer Anything can happen on a plane. You could drink a hot brew, have a snooze or ingest some top quality drugs whilst watching unidentified flying objects out the window. 6 @AndyTravis Just thought about Top Gun incidental music… 7 Lurksalot no singing here then , definitely 8 @Jean-Luc Pickguard This is 'Aliens in the sky' by Jinky Fuzz. Eclectic works as descriptor for this collection, excellent also works for me ! So that's the lot please cast your three votes by midnight on 30th Enjoy

  14. Whereabouts in Warwickshire ?
  15. Code Of The Slashers - Cannibal Corpse
  16. Jack The Ripper — Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
  17. I've already got a TRS jack, but it's not possible to measure the voltage. 0V. Imposible in these basses.
  18. Try as many different cabs as possible until you hit paydirt. Easy!
  19. Not so much intimidated but my reputation, especially going forward in bass building and if I potentially want to make this in the next few years post Police (don’t hate me) retirement option, it is really important to me. This is especially when it comes to asking people to part with their hard earned cash. It doesn’t matter to me that in the grand scheme of bass prices, this is right at the bottom end of the scale. I have applied 2 tests to myself over the last 25 years of public service. The “my mum” test and the “mirror test”; “Have I treated others how I want my mum to be treated?” and “Can I look myself in the mirror at the end of the day and genuinely say that I did my best today whether I won or lost?” So as of today and coming up for a week after the last contact about issue, I have had no further contact from the buyer. I left the ball in their court to let me know when was convenient for them to let me have the bass to look at and that I would turn it around for collection by the next day after that.
  20. Psycho Killer - Talking Heads
  21. Cre8audio West Pest Westcoast Style Standalone Semi Modular Synth Here’s my West Pest synth. It’s a design based on Don Buchla’s west coast style synthesiser concept. Made by Cre8audio in partnership with Pittsburg Modular. It’s got a built in sequencer and is very powerful for a small form single oscillator synth. It can be used as a standalone synth in its case with independent PSU (included) or added to a eurorack system. It can be patched with any modular eurorack or similar module or synth. In excellent condition. I own two with one in my eurorack so this isn’t getting the attention it deserves. Great little easy to use synth to introduce you to modular synthesis and patching. It comes boxed with four patch leads, PSU and quick start sheet. Full manual online. Price includes UK postage. Info here - https://www.cre8audio.com/westpest
