  2. Small, articulate Bass Cab in excellent condition complete with a Roqsolid cover which is also in excellent condition and cost over £90 alone. Dual Speakon / 1/4” Jack input & link. The OR-110 is a front-ported lightweight 1 x 10” cab with a custom designed Ashdown speaker – making the perfect companion for the OriginAL Head or extension for the OR-C112 combo to achieve the maximum output from the 300-watt power section. The cabinet is constructed using premium grade far eastern ply and is wadded to retain specific frequencies. The fine-tuned reflex port allows for more air to be moved, giving the little cab a surprising volume. Rated at 150 watts at 8 ohms, the OR-110 is one of the most portable cabs on the market. Adding further convenience, there is a top mounted grab handle positioned to offset the weight of the speaker magnet for ease of transport. For those pub gigs, pairing two of the OR-110 cabs provides enough volume to keep up with most drummers without having to DI through the PA. Otherwise – one OR-110 cab alone sits very well as a personal stage monitor, when using the OriginAL Head’s on-board DI to feed the front of house PA. Ashdown have focused their product offering over the past few years, delivering some really inspiring products focused towards the needs of the modern bass player. The OR-110 is no exception to the rule, building on the success of the OriginAL Range and adding something of real value to bass players delivering everything you need from a compact rig solution. The OR-110 Specifications are as follows: H:360mm 14.1” W: 390mm 15.3” 😧 360mm 14.1” Weight: 10.7KG (23.5lbs) Power: 150w Impedance: 8Ohms .Collection from North Staffordshire preferred as l do not have a suitable box at present, but l may be able to source one in the not too distant future & if so the postage would be at cost to the buyer👍
  3. I don’t do New Year resolutions as such but I do review my goals periodically in my Bullet Journal. This will require some reflection, which I have yet to do because of (1) NYE gig, (2) house guests. However I have sacked off the predictable pub covers gigs to leave space for: (1) Bowie tribute; (2) Glam covers startup; (3) Rockabilly/country covers/originals; (4) Anything else that seems fun and/or interesting.
  4. Excellent condition. Minimal use hence the sale. All valve and switchable from 5w to 2.5w Includes foot switch. £160 delivered within the UK
  5. Anyone who Googles that on NYE needs examining.
  6. Best bass in the Squier range today, IMO. No need to swap the pups out - the stock ones sound excellent.
  7. Thankfully, @neepheid is in charge this year, so, fill your sparkly silver platform stage-wear boots!
  8. THG Knobs by any chance?
  9. It's so good to find an amp that's easy to cart about 😁
  10. That was an interesting Christmas present. Was she under the tree or wrapped separately ?
  11. Oh, I have bought stuff when I was on a different continent and left it until I came back many months later so I know the dangers of GAS. However I can be fairly sure this time because a) I am now in La Paz Bolivia which is almost as 'a*se end of nowhere' as you can get and b) I am unemployed so there is no spare cash to be silly with. Of course, none of this is a guarantee and I fully expect to find a way to crumble at some point....
  12. I already shared my goals, but I saw this image and I laughted because it could be me
  13. Continuing the Bruce Thomas theme, we leap forward in time to the 1986 album Blood And Chocolate. Track 2 side 1, a rousing, uncomplicated line from Thomas it features a bass hook at the start of each verse, a walking bass over the latter half ,and a bridge replete with, as he likes to put it himself, "the usual major thirds over tonic" !

  14. Final 2025 dep gig on lead guitar with a pub covers band. Ticketed NYE pub event with family members on the guest list. All went really well and had to remind myself that a lot of the gigs can be grim with a really late drive home. Looking forward to 2026 with at least 3 happening band projects!
  15. I’d like to develop the acoustic guitar playing side of things more. I play bass with three bands but my acoustic guitar playing is only ever part of my solo gig stuff. A while back I worked up a load of really nice grooves just experimenting with a basic looper pedal, and I’d love to develop those ideas into something for a duo that’s completely different from the other stuff I do. Edit: I’m summary I’d like to have the confidence to try out these original music ideas live!
  16. A really great Mexican P bass from Fender! Bought new from Andertons in 2021 for a handful of gigs, and has been my backup P bass for a couple of years, but has spent most of its life on a guitar rack or in a case. All original apart from the Schaller strap locks (black). No case. Collection only from SW London.

  17. A wicked powerhouse bass!! Been in my possession since new after I did some promo videos for Aria. Studio use only, never gigged. Slight scratch on the back (pictured). No gigbag/case. Collection only from SW London.

  18. We had a bonus gig today. Given that we are a Blackmore's Night style renaissance-folk-rock band, the chance to play in this genuine Tudor manor house was irresistible. 2 hours of ballads accompanied by octave mandolin, interspersed with seasonal tunes on recorder and tambourine. We have an invite back, and we've also agreed in principle to use the location to record videos for our forthcoming album of renaissance tunes & ballads. The venue: The owners suggested we play by the log fire and so we did our first ever acoustic set.
  19. Oooo nice! Yeah I might hit you up when I’ve got something together!
  20. Ha! I got one of those from my daughter!

    SEI bass

    Motion towards, conjugate the verb….
  22. Pretty much all our gigs are carbon copies of the ones before. The usual mix of uninterested pub goers, drunken tosspots and thankfully a few who appreciate half decent live music to make it seem all worthwhile but mainly nothing much to report here! So our NYE gig was a at a sports and social club in Warrington, new to us so no idea on what to expect. A sold out ticket event of 200 mixed aged partygoers so it was going to be a mixed bag of reactions. Probably not going to be everybody's cup of tea but heyho. Understandably started a bit subdued but it was a good (polite) crowd. Second set improved and just got better and better. We played well, PA was great and was well enjoyed by all with some very positive comments. The best gig I've done for about 15 years I should think.
  23. Thanks man! No sure, 90’s bass . . I’ll check the serial number and update 👍🏻
  24. Today
  25. All Sold in bizarre trade deal. Magic.
  26. @Al Krow absolutely! That's quite the leak!

    Boss GX-1B

    Guess I'm surprised that they've allowed it to go on sale ahead of general release though? Seems unusual in terms of commercial practice?
