Like that flamed finish.

Love the finish on those and that to me is the ideal pick up configuration. Best of both worlds. Dave

A band i was in last year the existing bassist was going to New Zealand and had some TE gear to sell that he left in the bands own rehearsal studio. I bought it from him when i joined and just left it there. Wasn't happy with the TE sound so bought an Orange 115 & 210 and left my SVT4 Pro there. This was gear i normally wouldn't gig with and the band were really good and all nice guys. No-one else had access other than the guitarist who ran the band and had the keys. To be fair i would let someone else use that gear provided i knew them and could trust them and only in the studio. I wouldn't let anyone take the gear to a gig. The gear was in 1st class condition when i bought it and still is. Band split and i ended up bringing it all home again and now i have a spare room full of bass rigs. Time to sell of the Orange gear and maybe some other bits as well. Dave

Afraid i don't have the same level of trust as others on here. I've had gear damaged when stage sharing and to lend gear when i'm not there is not something i would even consider unless its a very close friend or someone i know i can trust and that is a very very short list. Dave

Fosters ?????? where did that come from

Once again i have no idea if you two are taking the fosters or not. Dave

Would i know the name of the band or would you prefer to be anonymous on BC which i can fully understand and appreciate. Dave

DOH sorry must have been a senior moment there

What kind of gig is it. ?

Is that Dwayne Johnson playing bass there Whats BL ?

I'm impressed Blue. That's hard going in my book.

Sounds lie you made the right move there. If you're enjoying the blues band even tho it was a one off gig then maybe that's where you should be. Standard here for gigs would be either a full 2 hr set or two 1hr sets. Some places still ask for two 45min sets. Dave

Just watched the promo VID and you guys are spot on. That's like watching or listening to the genuine article. I can see why my mate goes to your gigs when you play Glasgow areas. Well done. Dave

My mate raves about you guys. Pretty sure we've talked about it before. Next best thing to ELO as far as he's concerned and he's a fanatic for them so well done. Now i understand the reasons for the fleet.

Curious as to who the band is now

Was a big influence for me too. Hooked on Music being one of my favs.

jam first then cream

Really ? more detail please.

Even in the club circuit i believe the bands will do 2off 1 hour sets maybe altho i'm not really in that scene to be honest. I know some wedding bands will play for up to 3 hrs so i'm told. Are there any guys in UK doing long extended gigs. I'm kinda curious now to be honest. Dave

I'm assuming its not continuous playing for 4 hrs and you take regular breaks for tea and scones kind of thing

4 hr gigs is a bit too much for me. Not sure i could play for 4 hours. all credit to any band that can. That's a lot of stamina. Dave

Got one. She's never missed a gig and even operates the lighting desk when required. Dave

Was there a choice .............
