Oh man I am loving this.

That was the guy from Row of Ashes. He was running a Stingray through it.

I was listening to this (with headphones), a fb friend posted this. And here it is again. KEXP plays some eclectic stuff.

ChatGPT -> can you put this in English for the hard of understanding please?

Turn up with the lot and we'll do a Doors jam with the organ. LA Woman is great Hows your leg by the way? Rob

I have tried to put together a rig that helps a good sound engineer get the bass done in the soundcheck as quickly as possible. I also try to make it as idiot proof as possible, to make it difficult for a not very good engineer to f*** things up! Bear in mind that most venues aren't so bad that you have to do more than minor tweaks, assuming that you have realistic EQ settings to start with. I also use a gramma pad when feasible (i.e. 95% of gigs) and I have a HPF at the front of my signal chain. I rarely get any problems these day and any tweaks needed for the room tend to be pretty minor ones.

My 80s band had a go at Atomic and I found those runs harder than the bass solo. ISRT it was slightly easier on the five-string but it was still a toughie. We ditched it after we couldn't agree on the structure. The 7" version seemed a bit short, the full-length one just went on and on and on, and we couldn't find a happy medium.

Sure!

Just got me a v. nice Levis strap from this fella. Easy transaction, good comms, item as described, all that good stuff. Thank you Shug

Another seamless bargain deal done. Everything you want from an online transaction. Deal with confidence! Shug

Hahahahahahaha. It is fine. Not the music I love the most, but it is fine. What I really enjoy is playing with the people in the project

Chris contacted me to ask if I’d consider selling a spare 6SL7 tube that was bundled in one of my pedal sales. I had a think about it and agreed. All the details were sorted swiftly with prompt payment, and clear and friendly communication. I’d happily transact again. Many thanks.

Welcome Hana. You may have been reading about a "reverse P". This is where the E and A string pickup is nearer to the bridge than the D and G pickup instead of nearer the neck on a standard P. This results in a slightly thinner sounding E and A string relative to the D and G.

I'll probably get confused and turn up with the wrong instrument... cello, sax, 3 manual organ console....

Thanks to @MichaelDean and @EBS_freak for the advice. It looks like I will be ordering a set of Comply Memory Foam tips, to see if these will act as an effective upgrade for the ZS10s. These tips are compatible with the ZS10s https://www.complyfoam.co.uk/products/isolation-series-500-core-memory-foam-earbud-tips?variant=38150374260934 I will report back with my findings. And if the Comply tips don't help, then I will follow @spyder's lead and invest in the 215s. Generally, it was interesting to hear that different people have different preferences for in-ears - there is no "best", only "differently suitable".

Who owned the GK800RB under your Laney? Spectors SLAY through those heads! 🔥🔥🔥😎

That's an awkward one - IMO unless you're a tribute band the 9 minute album version is too long but I don't want to lose a verse, so we're working on a hybrid using all the verses and choruses but with the short version of the instrumental from the single version.

I'm not sure The Who ever played it the same way twice! If you find live recordings, or some of the alternate takes, it sounds like the solo sections were used as a space to jam, and the cut that made the album was just their preferred take...as long as your singer can get the scream right at the end, I'm sure the audience won't mind a bit of ab-lib!
