Like you, in the band where we use IEMs there are 4 if us. The singer wanted her own set, once she saw mine, but I thought there could be problems, as the new receivers might pick up my transmitter instead (or interference for everyone) but that turned out not to be the case. We used both pairs of transmitters independently without problems. Specifically to answer your question check the M-Wave product website for functionality for extra receivers. Bear in mind each transmitter will pump out the same common, stereo mix. We are still using our analogue 8x mono (2 of them can be stereo) input splitter and mixer, with the stereo out into a headphone amp with 4 outs with independent volumes for our IEMs.

Just scored one on eBay at a decent price so hopefully should have it in a few days. Need to sort out the wiring on my desk and get everything set up properly ready for it. It'll be nice not having to deal with USB-B cables and just being able to use my existing USB-C cables for pretty much everything 🙌

One more vote for Sire! I used to have a V3 which was flawless. Only moved it because i moved from one country to another. Now i have a P7 fretless

Same here - and this is the first place I put one of the blanking plugs!

0000 (Four) Wire Wool Solvo and dremell mop, and if alrightish, those nail polishing 4 sided sponges.

Some more Latin lunacy, the complete Hans Glawischnig bass part for the tune 'Oyo Como Suena' from the 2006 Paoli Meijas album, 'Transcend'. I am so thrilled to be able to spend time with these grooves and successfully getting the details down so mere mortals that haven't learned this stuff at their mother's breast have a chance of figuring some of it out! https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/oye-como-suena-paoli-mejias/

First of all, understand the flow of blood from fingers (and toes) to heart. Arteries are hidden under muscles, therefore you have to worry about veins that are close to the skin. Veins - especially in legs - have valves. Those valves are important and shouldn't be ruined by massaging from heart to fingers or heart to toes. Got it? Once more, which way? Always towards the heart! My suggestion is to massage finger muscles that can be found from forearm, close to the elbow. If you have a muscle hammer (even a cheap one is just fine), that is one nice tool (at lowest setting). Did I say something about the direction? Make it easy, start softly, just like any sports. Warm muscle can be hit harder, but I still suggest long, soft massaging several times a week to remove the lactic acid. Drink a lot of water, it helps a bit with this. If the hand isn't any better in a week, meet a specialist. Playing is sports of one kind. Keep your hands and hand muscles warm.

Hi Al, I don't really disagree, I think both things can be true at the same time. Let's face it the band really isn't the main event at a wedding It is a privilege to play and for the couple it is a one off event they can never get back. For the band it is just one event amongst many. but it is a huge responsibility to make it work. The audience generally just want to have a good time and are pretty much always on your side so there are lots of positives. The money is nice and when you are paid that much you expect your client to call the tunes. I admire the musicians who go this route, it is more demanding than the pub gig. For me though it's not something I'd actively go out and look for.

+1 for the Duke, was sounding great last night in my Fazley Hot Rod. Also consider the Entwistle PBXN (Modern) if you fancy a brighter, more "modern" sounding pickup with plenty of output. Just watch out for those super strong magnets - don't pull them apart, slide them apart - the magnets can be stronger than the glue sticking them to the pickup itself...

I've got a 1962 Precision, it's definitely authentic but it's had quite a bit of work done over the years including several neck replacements, various different bodies and a range of different electronics. For a while it was most of a 1969 Jazz, then later an excellent 1980 Stingray, and I believe it spent some time in the late 90s as a genuine Gibson Les Paul guitar, having had the neck, body and pickups replaced. As you can imagine, with that heritage it's extremely valuable.

I have both HB and Sonic basses. From a purely practical point of view they are both very similar in terms of quality, playability etc and I couldn't recommend one over the other. My HB is heavier, both were a similar new price (within £20-£30 as I recall). But when it comes to resale or part exchange, I think the one with the Fender logo will retain a bit more value. I used to have an Ibanez GSR200 and that was better (IMO) than either the Sonic or the HB. It was lighter than both and I preferred the neck but I sold it during an enforced break in gigging. I have recently ordered a new SR300EB (and while looking I saw a second hand older SR300 for £180 and a new GSR200 for £220 and aused GSR200 for £100). Personally I would go for one of these over the two mentioned by the OP. I've owned a Sire and the quality on that was superb, but the asking price was slightly higher than the Sonic/HB range.

Which nut are you referring to? Theres more than one nut involved in this guitar...

I've only heard good things about them to be honest. They're made in the Indonesian Cort factory, so quality will obviously be pretty good. The standout feature seems to be the ceramic pickups, so they have a brighter sound than the more expensive Player II's.

I'd did that last week, had to forgo my drive pedal which is only needed on our second encore which we weren't sure we'd get to. It starts with a bass solo and I could barely hear it so had to go au naturel.

@paul_5 yeah it is sad isn’t it. I watch it differently now after 25 years since the last time I viewed it. I know I’ve got that booklet somewhere too. It’s a small little booklet without a cover isn’t it?

Liberace's nan?

Dear lord, what have I done…?

https://www.songsterr.com/a/wsa/taylor-austin-dye-rest-in-peace-tab-s2071831t2/r2754229?open=editor I can't vouch for accuracy, but give this a try.

So..... What's the consensus on these now they have been out for a bit, are they rebadged Affinity's or are they there own thing?
