  1. Are you taking Statins?? They can cause/contribute to point pain.
  2. Robanna's sorted us out. Thanks for all the replys, very much appreciated.
  3. I'm having a bit of a 'mare upgrading the pickups in my Spector legend. It's had the TonePump Jr preamp and passive EMG HZ's in. I've got EMG 35DC's to install, with the solderless Vol pots, cabling and the Pick up Buss connector block. I want to keep the TonePump and from the wiring diagrams from both, I thought I could sort it pretty easily......WRONG! I'm going to start again so, wanted a few opinions on the best wiring ideas. I've attached what I can! Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers. [attachment=235624:EMG VOL POTS.jpg] [attachment=235625:TonePump Jr Wiring.jpg] [attachment=235623:EMG BUSS BOARD.JPG]
  4. Cheers but, this is very specific, highend gear needed.
  5. We recently advertised for a lead vocalist/frontman. Frontman was used as opposed to Frontperson a) wouldn't fit on the poster and b ) as a rock band we assumed the majority of applicants would be male. We were pulled up on this on Facebook by a few people and after the explanation all was good - we now have an amazing female 'FrontLass' as she puts it and was no way put off by the ad. She was more determined by it!
  6. Hi, Does anyone know of backline hire companies? Preferably West Midlands or surrounding? Any help or pointers very much appreciated. Cheers Gaz
  7. Bought some EMG's from Alain. Great transaction, here before I knew it and as described and well packaged. More than happy! Brilliant guy to deal with and he's one of the reasons this place rocks. Thank you.
  8. I've always wanted him to go a tuition/technique video and a full rig rundown.
  9. I learned to play, playing along to Maiden. He is such an innovator and IMHO one of the best bass players in the world. Scott Ian from Anthrax said in an interview. "Heavy Metal is Steve Harris' right hand!" I managed to catch British Lion (SH's 'other' band) in Birmingham last year and was at the barrier, I just watched his technique all night. Mindbogglingly fast with two fingers I simply couldn't keep up! I use three fingers for my own take on the style and it works well for the music we play, and I throw in a gallop when I can. Somewhere In Time is a good album to jam to, there is a lot of bass synth on that too. But, the Powerslave album is the one to master for me. Listen closely to the title track, in the chorus there's a triplet but, it's a pull up over three strings, it sounds amazing. I can't get that Phantom of the Opera part either! Check out hyottoko1 on YouTube - this Japanese guy is a master of the 'Arry style.
  10. I've used an Orange Terror Bass for 4 years and still love it. Swapped out the 12ax7's for 12at7wa's. That calmed the gain to a more manageable level and gave a bit more headroom. Still has the growl, grunge and grind you could be looking for and pretty cheap for a minter now as they are discontinued I believe. Only ever had one 'complaint' about the hot DI, solved for a fiver with a -15db attenuator. The futures bright.......
  11. TU2 for setups and a Pitch Black for stage as I don't wear my glasses. It's the only one I can see!
