a ha hahahahaha!

Only 1 week old? Blimey. He could have returned it for a refund if it was ordered online.

Mine went well until I got a music stand out...

Love them. Both reinforced and full graphite like a Status. rigid, stay in tune, fast aggressive attack. wonderful things.

My experience is opposite. And I've seen and been in plenty of originals bands where the singer is not the lyric writer and manages to learn the new song or 2 every week and not need a stand. It comes to this - if a tune is SO new that all the players would need a stand (pub gig / rock gig etc, not orchestra) then that song is not ready for performance at all. However if 1 person in the band needs a stand and the others do not - then that 1 person is letting the side down. Doesn't matter what instrument it is. Guitar / voice / drums / keys, flugel horn. Doesn't matter. They need to do more practice. Like the other band members managed to do.

Respectfully, that’s bollocks.

There’s an input pad setting somewhere. Turn it on and all will be well. also, join the FB Helix group. Every question you might think of can be answered there. The L6 guys are members.

Have the super bright colours been discontinued then?

that's a good point. I wonder why Dingwall don't have a pic of every colour available on their site. Seems an odd approach. Black and white are easy enough, but your dark blue might be my light purple etc.

Yes it would. I'm sure the BBC will spend thousands on sound comparison services to identify if it is their whistle.

I bet you'll find one in the recently opened BBC sound archive.

I've found it! Why BD can't just put it on each item properly is beyond me. Cut n paste is easy.

Which page? I've clicked on a few and can't find it.

I'm still lusting for it. I do wish Bass Direct would actually explain the colour codes rather than 4 letters of indecipherable crap.

IS the Quilter fan cooled?

Yes, and the outputs on the amp are parallel too. So either way 2 x 8 = 4.

Yup. All gone. Silver one because it was too heavy. Blue one because of 2 things - my Marleaux has the best B on planet earth so I always gigged that, and because a mate kept begging me to sell it to him. White - because I'm a massive fecking idiot and need a slap.

Not an obvious choice perhaps - but I get a great funk Marcus sound out of the Darkglass M900. Even when I use the drive on it I only add the tiniest bit for a bit of top end grit. It's a lot more versatile than expected - there are Jazz demos on youtube. And it will go to 2ohms.

Many amps only have 1 output. If you want another cab you daisy chain the cabs. The cab socket is wired in parallel. just make sure your build has 2 sockets in parallel. And that the total load doesn’t go under the minimum your amp can cope with.

I don't know how accurate they are - but Aguilar do 60s and 70s wind versions of their J pickups and do video demos of them. They don't do a specific 70s P, but they have a Hot version. The Js have 60s, 70, Hot etc Worth having a listen on youtube even if the person playing is a bit stinky poo. I've got a 60s wind P in my PJ-Ray and it's very nice. Not sure that helps you really!

another vote for the "play the right note at the right time" approach here. Ideally get a rehearsal before the show too.

Ooo the reverse headstock one is lovely!

I'e got a V already. I'm wondering about getting the Bass version - for the different harmonies.

I've had 3 and I miss them all Of the 3, I really wish I hadn't sold the white one. It was superb. At the time I was only gigging 5 strings and playing that only at home. Should have kept it. Someone on here bought it. Can't remember who though.
