If its just your voice you need to hear for pitching purposes, but you don't need the rest of the band in In-Ears, I used a clever little trick which ended up getting compliments from my band mates at the time as to how my voice had improved. I had some moulded ear-plugs made (it was a company like ACS who used the larger Etymotic Research ER filters) and I bought three sets of filters. They were something like -9dB -15dB, -25dB attenuation). I loved those ear plugs, the sound was really balanced and clear, as opposed to many that are peaky or muffled. The trick was to pick a filter that attenuated the sound outside my head just enough that when I sang I could hear the voice inside my head just over the top. It worked really, really well and did rely on the ear plug filter passing a clear sound. For the band I was playing in generally the -15dB was about right. To be honest, a really good moulded ear plug should be used all the time anyway, so, it's not much of an investment, very cheap comapred to the rigmarrol of going to In-Ears if it isn't strctly necessary at this point. It didn't really help the other voices inside my head or the ringing, but my voice improved ha ha ha.,,,

Nearly every desk has an auxiliary out on each channel, you can use those to send whatever mix you want to a cheap headphone amp then into your IEMs. As it's only you using them, you can put just vocals or whatever else you need in your mix. My partner just bought the bits for this (she plays the fiddle) and after one gig she described it as a total game changer. Can't remember exactly what she bought but it was a cheap and cheerful headphone amp and wired IEMs from Thomann. If you wanted to run direct from the mic, I think you might need a mic preamp to bring the level up a bit before it goes to the headphone amp.

Some belated positive feedback for Gavin who sold me a pedal earlier this year. We got messed around by Royal Mail who sadly seem to have lost the pedal forever. However Gavin dealt with it really well, chasing them up, communicating well and giving me a full refund - can't ask for more than that, thanks.

Yeah - that's the same weight as my Lionel Superlight - makes even my full scale TT4 Superlight seem heavy - ant that is only about 200g heavier!

My band is about to start making noise again in a live context. We're a three piece and I can happily hear all the noise from our amps/drums but I would like to have a feed of my voice into an in-ear (perhaps with a touch of compression and reverb) so that I don't over sing and get pitchy etc I can see systems costing a bomb and cheap as chips stuff but is there a reliable solution to just getting a feed of my voice that sounds even (and possibly vibey) in one or two of my lugholes? It would need to be something I could just setup in a simple rehearsal room with an el crapola desk and then take to stages of various sizes...is there something that works independently of the desk for instance i.e. taking a feed of my voice off the mic DI box? And if there is a solution, how do you choose to set it up?

Just add *SOLD* to the end of the listing title and it’ll automatically lock the thread

Long click on the title and add the word sold. The thread will lock automatically.

I love a jazz at home and used to tour with a Stingray and a 70s J as a backup. Whenever I switched to the J the bottom end and any thump fell out of the band. I'm pretty sure it was driver error but it always struck me as a potential issue. Doesn't stop me buying them and selling them though!!! I love the sound for recording.

Shell Pink with a lightly amber tinted clear to give it some age.

Sunburn - Muse

As far as I'm aware, Marc @dutchwifelives in Japan, and is very amiable. A long shot but possibly worth a PM.

How do i edit an ad to show the item is sold?

I've had to wait for 9 months a few years ago for my passive TT5 and I had specifically insisted on the weight. The result lived up to my expectations with 2,6kg/5,7lb and, the most important, the same perfect sounding than my former classic TT5 The concern after that is that all the basses seem heavy !!

Me neither. Music for people who think they like music.

Oh come on, 'most'? You think we all have nothing better to do than check the classifieds here twelve time a day? Well. Fine. But that's not the point either.

Most FB Marketplace interactions I've had where I've had to go to a person's house to buy or sell something! I sold a bass to a guy who lived over the road from an airport perimeter fence, and he started ranting about chemtrails... Camo jacket/pyjamas dude bought a keyboard from me. I think I was his contact with the outside world for the week.

Foto flame is more like those '60s Paisley Fender finishes than any sort of AAA+ book-matched maple veneer. It is a thin image buried in lacquer. Once it is compromised, via any sort of dent or ding, it seems to loose strength and start to give way in sheets.
