2 years ago I found myself depping the whole summer for @spongebob whilst he recovered from an eye operation Ska/Mod/punk/new wave but the dress code was polo shirts. I didnt have any but off to Primark and I bought several, all in different colours. Two gigs I had to wear a Mod style suit and tie (and again with them last week) It was fun to be dressed totally different from normal and to fit in with guys in the band Every gig they would throw new songs (to me) in and I learned them all

Does Thomann regularly make mistakes these days?

I have had repeated success with a length of dental floss wrapped around and under both sides of the control knob to be removed. -
Your best (and worst!) bass gear purchases of 2024?
tauzero replied to Al Krow's topic in General Discussion
Best (so far) - Barcus 6-string fretless. very nice to play and a good sound, and I don't have to look at the singlecut while I'm playing it. -
Missed Nicks sister doing her solo slot as I arrived around 2.30pm. A great day of live bands doing thirty minute sets, timely changeovers due to running two stages. A really big turnout of punters, several hundreds, all having a good time in the lovely sunny weather. IMG_2714.avif

Sorry to hear about your amp - I seem to recall it was someone like Surrey Amps who are the authorised repairers in the UK?

I ended up in that situation for a band I played in regularly. 😂 The BL changed arrangements on a whim, added new stuff, mashed songs together and all with little or no prior discussion. Often it would be during the gig, but never with a rehearsal. I didn't like it and as the rest of the band didn't either, we left him. But I have to say that with hindsight it gave me self confidence playing and enabled me to deal with the the surprises that sometimes arise in dep gigs.

Electro-Harmonix Clone Theory Vintage Chorus Pedal NYC Made 70’s/80’s This is the one made famous in the 80’s by musicians including Peter Hook, John McGeoch and again later by Kirk Cobain. You can get sweeping chorus, subtle vibrato, to mad flange and synth like sounds from this unit. It’s a hard wired mains unit and the casing has plenty of dings and touch ups to the paint. It works perfectly and sounds great. These are quite rare now. I’ve owned two and this is the one that is all original. It’s an old pedal and like most vintage EH gear a bit noisy but it’s not a particular issue for live gigs.

Sounds like you have earned some leverage with a mardy landlord because the landlady clearly knows a good thing when she sees/hears it. Fill your boots and bump your fee. It is well worth it to them if you are keeping trade alive for an extra two hours.

For sale my Ashdown ABM 400 head with ABM 4x10 cab and flightcase for the cab. They've seen a fair bit of touring, I think/hope i've priced it fairly considering that. They still sound fantastic! These were built from what I think is the first ABM range by Ashdown. Built in the UK and I think in the early 90's. I've had the head and cab since around 2009 and bought the flightcase for the cab around 2014. They've seen a fair bit of action over the years but haven't really let me down. The tolex on the head and cab are looking pretty tatty in places and some of the knobs on the head have come off over the years and had to be replaced. Some of that patches on the tolex are from stickers and tags to identify them as mine backstage etc. The flightcase has a couple of spots of rust but is other wise in great nick and the wheels and brakes work well. Internal dimensions for the flightcase are W615, D425, H675. Custom built by the Flightcase Warehouse UK. Selling as they had been sat in a rehearsal room for a while but my band are no longer renting that space and I don't have room at home. Collection or meet up only.
