    Nice one, that should solve it.

    That's good stuff 😁 Hope you're well, mate.

    No problems, just changing from a pre-amp monitor combo back to a bass combo and wondered if you'd accept that. Wish I had the funds right now as only in Deal and this is a great combo at a fantastic price

    Good comment, and why to some extent I'm not going to be persistant in trying to make contact with Mr B. I currently have a comfortable halfway point, tried to make contact, no response so I'm covered (according to my conscience). The band has already booked an audition date for Mr C.

    You could try a hub like this one: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Adapter-Headphone-Control-Charging-Earphone-6-in1-USB-c-hub-Space-Gray/dp/B08LQ3HF9N/ It's the one I'm using, but there are others...

    All that for £150?! Incredible. I remember when the original Martin moving head lamps came out and they were as much as a car EACH. We only have 4 PAR type LED lamps, which have spent the last couple of years fixed to the ceiling of our practice space, but we recently brought them down ready for moving house and fitted them to a T-bar. They've been setup at one in built-in mode, with the other three following it. I didn't like it as a lot of the colours are cold - a bluish white, pale blue, cyan, lavender etc. (as seen in the photo actually). But I've just ordered one of those £20 DMX controllers from eBay and I'm planning to set up a few scenes with deep, warm colours.

    Dimed = everything on full. This is the "fun zone" of the Haz. With reference to "attack", I was referring to being able to control the drive/overdrive with just how hard or soft I play with my fingers (or a pick). With one pedal setting I can play the line to Faith (George Michael) clean and then by digging in a bit more I get some warm drive on say, Mardy Bum (Arctic Monkeys). I know that's possible with any set up but it's easy, controllable and sounds like I want it to with the LHZ. I've also found that the LHZ plus the Origin Effects DCX Bass pedal is just magic however the Legacy through the DCX can get very close to Tech21 DP-3x territory. It's a fine pre-amp and possibly more versatile in its application but for the "classic Spector recipe" the LHZ delivers. I don't change the settings on the bass much, maybe just the odd song where I dial back the treble, and I find that the LHZ plus the EMGs give me more than 90% of what I need. My Spectors (PJ EMGs + LHZ) are pretty much one trick ponies but it's the best trick in the world and the ponies are very pretty and have wings 😉

    The review says it all: comprehensive, US published and hard to find. Price is UK posted, unread condition. Now £16. EVEN LOWER! £14 posted. Times And Seasons - The Rise and Fall and Rise of the Zombies Robin Platts HoZac Books, $31.99 356 pages Classic British pop, expertly chronicled Few books on the Zombies exist, but theirs is a story worth telling. And it's predictable that, given their Stateside star status, this quintessentially English quintet of She's Not There and Tell He No fame should be chronicled on an American imprint. The band only hung up its touring shoes last year after leader/keyboardist Rod Argent's stroke, but the work he and singer Colin Blunstone created after their reunion in 2001 - the years since 1968 being silent, in a Zombies sense - are also covered in detail by author Platts. The band always had a youthful camaraderie, having come together at high school, and that comes over faithfully in this account of their heyday - plus a long tail that details their subsequent musical careers. While Blunstone went solo and Argent created an eponymous prog band (of God Gave Rock And Roll To You fame), guitarist Paul Atkinson went behind the scenes and signed Abba to CBS - a feather in anyone's cap. Detail is forensic without being stifling. If the layout is a trifle fanzine-y, the integration of illustrative material like press cuttings and photos with the text helps make this an easy read. And the urge to play the music, always the sign of a good book, is irresistible.

    Yes. I did this exactly so I could work out if we could do 5 in a day while chatting and getting distracted. I think that'll be a thread of ideas own at some point.

    My final show of 2025 was also a debut at Devizes’ White Bear, a famously haunted 15th century coach house. Dubbed as “The White Bear before Christmas”, our visuals guy had declined doing a Jack Skellington type poster design due to copyright. I admire his principles. Having lost our other regular payer, I had high hopes to make this a good show. The vibe was very friendly and our hard push across all of our social media platforms paid off. Loads of familiar faces showed up. I did a walk around prior to going on, giving out band badges. I was playing mandocello, my Precision bass, mandolin and guitar. We decided to dress extra smart to make it more of an event. Nick’s legendary 86yr old mum came down to support us (again) and told me afterwards that we just get better. The landlady was extremely happy and said the whole pub was blown away, even the people in the back bar that I wasn’t convinced we’d win over. We have a couple of super fans who have been to the last few shows who showed up. It looks like we’re back for our 2026 album launch in the spring. A definite success.
