  1. Past hour
  2. Ever heard of showbusiness? 😉
  3. Have a look at Volt drivers. Nice, but not cheap, though.
  4. Personally, if the photos are obviously fake and a bit of fun, then that’s ok. I’ve done similar with my bands. No one is fooled, and it’s just a laugh. If things were done to look ‘real’ and trick people I’d be less comfortable.
  5. Why? Because people that don't need to blow the doors off the joint buy them to use on gigs.
  6. A drummer that is a little OTT wouldn't be too much of a problem. When Sir Guitard has to OTT the drummer instead of telling drummer too cool his jets you got problems.
  7. When I’m Dead & Gone - McGuinness Flint
  8. Marc Ford had to cover for Doug Pettibone, who was called home for family reasons. I rate him a lot higher than I did. Lack of second guitar/organ was noticeable but the rhythm section was impressive.
  9. Horses for courses and you don’t send your highly trained trotter to the galllops. Most of the gigs I have done in the last 10 years have been done with 200w'ers.
  10. I’ve decided to sell my awesome TE1200 amp as its not getting used as much now due to band change and I can do with the money ! Totally mint as new with Footswitch, cable, rack ears and gig bag, mains lead price includes UK shipping
  11. I'm not a fan of it personally.
  12. GMC are a small UK luthier supplier (one man show I believe) that makes everything in-house and they sell a very decent bass notched/straight edge combo for just under £40. https://www.guitarbuilding.solutions
  13. Hi Dave, I'm interested in everyone's opinion. Is it ok to use AI images to promote your bands gigs? Daryl
  14. Best sound I had - Spector LX into Reidmar and EBS Classic 410 Great Amps
  15. Brand new and still boxed 3SKB-R04U20W SKB 4U Industrial Shock Mount Rack Bought for one of my Ampeg SVT2 Pro's but I've never swapped it out from its old case so up she goes. In the original box so postage is no problem at all. These are amazing bits of kit and super solid with the shock mounts keeps your gear in tip top condition. Postage within the UK included. Used library pics but I can remove it from the box if you want actual photos Also coming to The Guitar & Bass Show in Birmingham 27th Feb-1st March if anyone wants to buy it there or meet on way / back from Hexham? TRADES WELCOME
  16. Id have it, but waiting on my Forte D to sell 🤪
  17. Hi Terry Thank you very much for replying. I think you hit the nail on the head regarding the fretboard radius. I didn't know if this was common to both the TRB and the TRBX fretboards though something inside told me it might be the case. And, 'Yes' you're right, I experienced no issues with the fretboard/neck on the TRBX605 I had, and even the EQ and the hardware were okay, it was just the overall feel of the thing. So far as the legendary Yamaha build quality was concerned (prevalent in the old BB's and RBX's I have) the TRBX just didn't feel up to scratch. However the overall general consensus suggests to me that the TRB's are in a different league. So, I think I'll stick with the TRB 5 string and put it to the test. P.S. I've also decided to go for a BTB 5 string with T1's or Nordstrands, plus either a Sire M5 or a V8 5 string (but selling off my old Yamaha RBX375 plus my two Sire V7 4 strings). Thanks very much yet again Terry for all your much valued help and advice 🙏 Steve
  18. Love the pic Daryl. Dave
  19. My last gig was NYE. We don't have a gig until February 19. It will be my first gig at age 72. This stretch of no gigs is driving me crazy. Daryl
  20. Frustrating, especially when most of the audience likely can't even play an instrument, so what do they know about it to judge?
  21. Today
  22. Selling my immaculate Ampeg powerhouse of an amp. It is three years old and comes with an amazing padded gig case which is probably £75 worth on its own. I will link to the Ampeg blurb but basically it is a 600w into 8ohm, 1000w into 4ohm head weighing 7kg. It can be rack mounted but I do not have the brackets for this. The eq section is brilliant; there's a 5 way midrange selector which enables you to boost or cut a given frequency as well as treble and bass and bass boost and treble boost buttons. There is also an onboard compressor and it is the only compressor that I have ever tried that works just right for me. 25 years ago I borrowed an Ampeg head(no idea which model) in rehearsal rooms and immediately tried to buy it from the owner because I was blown away by it. He wouldn't sell but I ended up with the brand eventually. I have gigged it once, with a pair of Markbass cabs, and it sounded immense but controlled and effortless. The bass player in the other band on the night got to use my rig and he was grinning from start to finish. Asking £475 I would very much prefer collection in person or meet up within 30 miles of M5 J23 but I will discuss p&p if collection is a deal breaker. Blurb and pics to follow and sorry but straight sale only: https://ampeg.com/data/6/0a020a3f13a3f5e0b9b5bf2212/application/pdf/Owner’s Manual - English .pdf
