  1. Can you explain how a "tube driven mosfet power stage" is different from any other amp with a tube preamp and ss power section?
  2. Hi Paul, Having heard you guys, I suspect being in a three piece will suit you (and the rest of the band) My originals band went from a four piece to a three late last year - took some time to rearrange stuff, but it works better than it did IMHO..
  3. I don't think the sx-80's have pole mounts. So you'd have to bodge something with their omnimount system.. Once you have that sorted a decent set of aluminium stands (I use gorilla) will cost you about £40..
  4. I used DPD to Germany recently. No problems. 1 hr pickup and delivery windows..
  5. Who are you using ? Are you sure you are using the correct units ? I've used DPD and ups without issues recently
  6. According to the manual it's a Laney fs2 which is freely available..
  7. [quote name='bazztard' timestamp='1491648571' post='3274544'] you've never heard this term used in relation to scale notes? Bass players don't play chords in Stand By Me. They play chord tones, made up of the Root third and fifth of the major scale for major chords. [/quote] More correctly the "Tonic".. If E minor and G Major use the same notes, how can you tell the difference ? This is part of the OP's question.. It's the "home" note basically (it's actually a bit more complicated than this but it's a good place to start).. In stand by me's OP's case it';s pretty easy, it starts and ends on G Major... I've just played it on the piano with G Em C D G in the right hand and E C# A B E in the left hand and it sounds very dark (and weird) ..
  8. [quote name='Dandelion' timestamp='1491643390' post='3274474'] Usually the first Chord played indicates the key of the song. [/quote] More reliably the last chord but a little late if you're jamming..
  9. [quote name='Hobbayne' timestamp='1491658235' post='3274616'] It is in G so the relative minor is Em. The same notes occur in each scale. [/quote] From the versions I've looked at on Youtube, the Lennon version is in A Maj.. The second chord is F#m (the relative minor of A) So I suspect you were playing it in G Maj..
  10. Big headstock angle = snapped off when it falls over . Standard Les Paul repair..
  11. Also the Dave Smith mopho keyboard..
  12. [quote name='blue' timestamp='1491591488' post='3274213'] I have had one of these hand trucks in the trunk of my car for 5 years. I have never used it. Blue [/quote] If you had to move your gear 400 yds through a field to a festival stage you would have :-) I use one like these - picked up locally for less than £20 five years ago.. http://www.sacktrucksdirect.co.uk/200kg-solid-toe-sack-truck.html
  13. Yes we are.. i can see them fine on my phone..
  14. These look interesting https://www.tomsgardenequipment.co.uk/category/Carts_Barrows/product/Handimoova_All_Terrain_Trolley/
  15. Lots of weasel words in the guarantee section..
  16. No 😊 just one man band. You might want to drive one more junction on the m40 and go to bass direct
  17. I use DiMarzio 3" straps although you need to use their ends.. http://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/DiMarzio-ClipLock-3-Wide-Nylon-Quick-Release-Black-Guitar-Strap/1C39?origin=product-ads&gclid=CjwKEAjw8ZzHBRCUwrrV59XinXUSJADSTE5k0nUhRDHE-84J4ZXL2oAgVW2dUvcGkkWGya3M_TNLLhoCLr3w_wcB
  18. [quote name='PaulWarning' timestamp='1491469122' post='3273219'] cheers guys looks like normal business practice then, I always think it's a bit shady when someone asks for all the money upfront [/quote] I think it's pretty normal unless you have a strong ongoing business relationship - if you don't pay then what are they going to do with them?
