Second gig for my originals band last Saturday evening in Reading. Gig put on by a local promoter who has delt with our guitarist before. All new to me and was slightly nervous as only required to take Squier PJ-555 and pedalboard. Happy to find Markbass lm3 and 2x10 cab supplied. Small pub but a sizable enthusiastic crowd for the four bands. We were on second and went down very well. Friendly sound man and I could hear everything fine which encouraged me to do my backing Vox. I'm not great but it's so much easier when you can hear yerself. Lots of positive comments from audience members and one of the other bands want us to do a gig with them in September.....so far so good.

Sterling Stingray intermittently conks out
Little Helios replied to Little Helios's topic in Repairs and Technical
Yes. The battery wasn't going flat, it was just that the sound would die on me and then come back when plugged in again a few hours later. I sent it back to the retailer to be fixed under warranty and it looks like they've been successful, so I'll post an update when I get it back from them. -

If I wasn’t sold before 😂 I sure as hell am now

Yeah all my gigs the backline goes via FOH so ampless an easy option. If I were in a covers band doing pubs I’d go with my Fender Rumble 800 combo.

I have tried numerous things and eventually bit the bullet and got one of these. https://www.thomann.co.uk/flyht_pro_wp_safe_box_7_ip65.htm It's bigger, but on wheels. A bit of an outlay but has proved worth it.

No matter how many times @joel406 makes this tedious argument, I'm sticking with an amp and cab because I'm not lugging round a sub or larger PA speakers to be able to put the bass through, and I'm not going to arse around setting up ambient mics and potentially micing up the drumkit. And we play in smallish pubs, and I've got earplugs.

Cool stuff 👍 Needs a new cavity sticker though - Today is 30 April (although it feels more like 30 Jul)

My 5th LHZ Glowup The DarkGlass Tone Capsule is out. LHZ-03 #739 is in. It sounds like it should now. And it sounds subtly different to the others. In fact my four 4s all sound a bit different from each other, which must point towards wood differences. They've all got newish D'Addario EXL170s. This one, Peacock, has an ebony board. I also treated her to some Schaller strap pins. The new strap pins used on newer Euros are rubbish. Photos are: 1. Before opening. 2. The DG 3. The LHZ 4. A happy patient recovering well from the op.
