I did have to leave the word off out 😉

Said the bishop. 😉

Stoned and drunk - black label society

You beat me to it 😂

That ACG is amazing!

A run up could be dangerous to your future romantic prospects.

Don't often post on BC these days but I'm sitting here with a cup of coffee and thought I would share my 32" ACG and 32.5" Sandberg.

OK, that's good to know re comparisons of cone sizes, and even better to know how the PJBs compare to other good 1x10s. Think I'm going to take the plunge deeper into PJB land!

Happy to recommend, always a gent to deal with, top chap. Thanks Nik.

All good input, thanks everyone. Believe it or not I’ve actually been playing bass for 49 years, but like most non-pro players, string changes are quite a rare occurrence!

T-Cut?

I see what you did there.

Loaded - Pulkas

Nice Parker bass!

Today on Youtube.... "Why 'the Zip' destroys other bass moves!"

Chris, a long time ago, someone asked me to repair a similar damage on a classical guitar for almost nothing as he was skint. So after a bit of discussion I proposed him to create a side soundhole and that was it. And you know what, according to him, it sounded better with this side soundhole... Go figure.

Depping with the Lee Aaron Band at The Cavern in Raynes Park this Friday night. Small stage, loud band, small venue..... should be er........full on!

A new venue to play and it's like 2 minutes from my house! Playing tomorrow night with Nine Lives at the Grampian Bar in Torry, Aberdeen. Always an experience to try new places - no idea what to expect!

Fire Your Guns - AC/DC

Put a little more zest in the run up as to launch the bass, freeing it from the hip position with a single powerful thrust, after which it returns to regular resting position. This is called the One Pump Chump.

Yeah I think the origin stuff isn’t a ‘like for like’ comparison to the other gear out there claiming to do a similar thing. While the question will always be does it sound like… many of these boutique businesses (such as Wren and Cuff with their era correct Muff recreations) it will sound like the particular amp or pedal they have access to which might sound different form your pedal or amp from the same era. What Origin are doing is pretty cool and gonna make a lot of people happy who want the sound and ‘feel’ of those classic amps recreated as closely as possible in a compact form. Will my tube preamp set to sound like a B15 with eq tweaks sound like the Fifteen? No but it may sound close enough or closer than some other B15 recreations, it may sound good enough but I’ve never played a B15 to compare. Im gonna try and pick one up (mostly if a used one comes up) as I think the sound and way people are describing the feel would be the perfect direct to PA for the always on tone and with a simple twist of a knob it would provide the gritty tones I sounds get with other pedals. If anyone’s sending one back let me know if you’d be up for some trade and Px discussion I’ve got some gear I’d be up for discussing 😀
