  1. I'm planning on adding a Wizard Thumper to my GSR200. Not sure what to put in the bridge though. Wonder if they'd do me a set with a Thumper and the double jazz bridge pickup they do, that sounds like it could be fun. Liam
  2. RHCP - Dani California Jet - Are You Gonna Be My Girl? Alien Ant Farm/Michael Jackson - Smooth Criminal. (But more the AAF Version) Those are the 3 i would go for, strangely, also all played live by my band, although we dropped Smooth Criminal after 2 gigs as we were SH*TE at it. Liam
  3. Not a problem with Peavey gear myself, except the weight of course. As well as their bass stuff, they do some amazing guitar amps too. My bands rhythm guitarist uses a tiny little Vypyr 30 Combo which is loud as hell, and we recorded our frst single using the producers 6505 head, gorgeous tone. Liam
  4. If i had an extra £100 i'd actually be tempted to travel to Leeds and back to get these, Liam
  5. Monster Mash, Grab the Devil By The Horns and F*ck Him Up The Ass - Sum 41, Beezleboss - Tenacious D, and whatever else i think of. Liam
  6. I think i've posted this in the calendar too, but here goes. A Little Bit Outlaw (See sig) are playing at Manchester Academy 3, supporting Boomin on the 12th of November. Tickets are £6 or £7 on the door, and the lineup is as follows: Boomin (Headline) Finding Emo A Little Bit Outlaw New Avenue These guys sold out their last Academy show, which was only a 2nd support slot (Same spot we are) which led to the venue putting on an Afterparty for them at a pub across the road. The same will be happening for this gig, so as soon as it finishes we'll be heading across the road for one hell of a night. I'll add links to the bands pages later when they aren't blocked (I'm at work) or ALBO can be found in my sig. Thanks for reading, hope to see some of you there. Liam
  7. Bump for something i've never seen before, an SVT Combo. This looks rather fun and interesting, but also heavy and scares my bank account as there's nout in it at the moment. Liam
  8. [quote name='dave.c' timestamp='1320063364' post='1421687'] I actually like the Picato flat wounds! Regardless of the Price and have had several sets with no problems, in fact I am sure I have a set taken off a Spector Rebop if your beater bass has two a side machine head layout, then you can have them FOC, [/quote] Not to Hijack but if Iconic doesnt take these i will. Quite interested in a cheap set of flats myself, just to try them out, as i've never used them before, so this could be of use to me, and £16?! That's less than i pay for the rounds i use on my Squier!! Liam
  9. [quote name='charic' timestamp='1319791866' post='1418545'] Don't suppose there's a video of this is there? [/quote] Unfortunately not, although i do wish there was, that would be an amazing moment for You've Been Framed, get myself £300 off that... Liam
  10. Local charity festival thing last year, the start of our set was in D Standard, so i had brought my 4 string along too because it was easier than transposing it on my 5 string. We're all onstage ready to go, just tuning up and PING! Snapped my E and A (Well, D and G really, as i was tuned down) strings. 5 string with a capo it is.... Another gig, last month. I had sat on the edge of the stage for a slower bit in a song, and tried to do that thing where you jump up and backwards to get back onto the stage, only i didnt jump high enough. So for the last chorus of Teenage Dirtbag i was lay in a heap on the floor, having hit my head on a cymbal stand and somehow sprained my wrist in the process, whilst still playing along. Liam
  11. [quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1319534643' post='1415189'] It's even better playing with a drummer who can play an acoustic kit quietly... [/quote] [quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1319535448' post='1415206'] [size=4]+1[/size] [size=4]They do exist. I know several.[/size] [/quote] I'm in a band with one. He's so good at it that we can have a band rehearsal with 2 acoustic guitars, 25w bass amp and an unmuted acoustic kit (Rock sizes, 22x1 8 kick, 14x6 snare, 12" and 16" toms) with cymbals. I know what you mean about many things being too loud, i think a lot of pub bands are, and i'm 16. I tend to find that i have my earplugs in my pocket any time i'm going out and know theres a possibility of live music. Liam
  12. Is there any chance of postage? If so i could possibly take these. Liam
  13. Thomman do them as far as i can remember. Its a tenner for postage though, so they don't really work out that cheap unless you spend a fair few quid. Liam
  14. [quote name='tony_m' timestamp='1319294107' post='1412381'] Sounds like what you need is a nice MAG300-210 combo with a built-in sub-harmonic... [/quote] That isnt as stupid an idea as you made it out to be. There's a local band (You've probably heard of them) called [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0KicsxptiFw&feature=related"]Boomin[/url] who's bassist uses an Ashdown ABM and they have a huge sound every time i hear them play. Liam
  15. Are you willing to split it? I would be interested in one of the 2x12's if you're willing to ship. Liam
  16. Thanks guys. I might just grab 2 of those and try them in a gig situation, hopefully they'l be good for what i want. If not, as Mr_Anthony says, there's always the 30 day returns policy. Liam
  17. Thanks for that Del, i'm more interested in the MBX than the MBE though, they're a little more in my price range. Wouldn't mind a pair of MBE's though actually, they do seem like really good cabs. Liam
  18. HI all, I'm after some relatively cheap matching 2x10 cabinets, and unfortunately when i've actually got money theres never anything on here. I spotted these on Thomann for £157 each, and they don't look too bad for the price. They're pretty light (18kg) but have a tad lower power handling than i want, and theres nothing on SPL anywhere either. Anyone got/used any of these cabs, or any ideas on what to look at which will suit me better? Liam
  19. Nobody'll notice that when you're onstage, its not too shabby of a job, better than i could do, and that actually looks like quite a nice P bass. I'm doing the reverse to my Ibanez, going from PJ to P. Liam
  20. Welcome to the forums Callum, I'm actually doing that to my own GSR200 in the next few months, turning it totally passive. Liam
  21. Steve, because i have long hair, i want a blue p bass, i play fingerstyle, and i like triplets. Liam
  22. [quote name='paul_5' timestamp='1319114495' post='1410060'] [indent=1]I use them to whip students who can't spell properly. Sometimes I'll flagellate the ones with bad punctuation too, but only if I'm feeling [i]really[/i] cantankerous. [/indent] [/quote] Remind me never to take one of your evening classes. Back on topic, i stick mine in my gig bag for the rest of eternity (till i break a string really) or when i change strings again. Edited for better punctuation so i don't get whipped. Liam
  23. [quote name='mcgraham' timestamp='1319110037' post='1409959'] Had my Berg IP stack for the last 3 years - extremely happy with it. [/quote] I should expect you are happy with a Berg IP stack. Thats quite an impressive rig. Liam
  24. If you're willing to change on postage, i may be interested in this. Liam
