Just sent a bass with a Tanzanian Blackwood fretboard to the Netherlands - glad I got in on time!

We supported a 2Tone band recently and when chatting to the sound guy he apologised in advance, as the headline band stipulated no PA subs till they came on 😡

The Steamhammer it is! [IMG] http://i1244.photobucket.com/albums/gg580/christopher_brown14/rackbags/Screenshot_2016-12-11-12-19-12_zpshlosrv6u.png[/IMG] The most obvious difference is that it is 7.5lbs as opposed to the 11lb heads in the current range.

Yeah, a bit awkwardly close to Tonehammer. Steamhamster would be awsome

I think they are branching out into cooking appliances: [IMG] http://i1244.photobucket.com/albums/gg580/christopher_brown14/rackbags/FB_IMG_1481202163551_zpsvjcx5w1e.jpg[/IMG]

[quote name='stevie' timestamp='1481057970' post='3189420'] They are revealing one letter a day on Facebook? They must think their customers haven't got a life. [/quote] Hah. I don't see many people actively going to their FB page to find out the next letter, rather it will pop up on the normal time line of subscribers (anyone who has 'liked' Glockenklang) on FB. It's a bit different to the average product launch in its creativity, so gets a thumbs up from me

Glockenklang are about to announce a new product. They are teasing us by revealing one letter per day on FB. So far we have: [IMG] http://i1244.photobucket.com/albums/gg580/christopher_brown14/rackbags/FB_IMG_1481054942623_zpslsq65w6x.jpg" class="ipsImage" /> Anyone know about this new Steamhammer/hog/house/hacker?

[quote name='Len_derby' timestamp='1480969911' post='3188603'] Just about every dub and reggae band I've seen have had a bass player toting a Jazz bass. Which I find interesting given all those stories about them getting lost in the mix. [/quote] Playing dub often means playing with clean, sparse guitar and keys, very little competition for bass frequencies. IME many who complain of their Jazz getting lost in the mix have maxed out both pickups to get a scooped tone* This tone can get lost in a rocky context, but less so with dub/reggae. *I used to have a 2EQ Stingray when I was about 21. I permenantly maxed out the treble and bass EQs then wondered why I couldn't be heard in my band 😳

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1480772937' post='3187026'] Anything by Florence and The Machine, awful. [/quote] Yes, especially live

Marinus bought a bass from me, and it was a very smooth transaction with great communication and fast payment. I'd happily deal with him again.

How about Chowny? http://youtu.be/ZSWGbunvZwQ

Kate Tempest - Let them eat chaos It's one of the best albums I've heard for a very long time. Her poetry/lyrics and delivery are astounding, perfectly backed by a lo-first synth soundtrack.

A bypass looper is great for this, as the signal is unaffected until you kick in the effects loop. Another advantage is that you can go from clean to a combination of pedals in one stomp.

If the Reidmar is like other EBS heads, you may not get that rip-your-fillings-out zingy treble that they can do (bright control) from the tweeterless Super Twin. A good thing IMO

Lewis bought a pedal from me in a swift deal with great communication. I'd happily deal with him again.
