  1. Sounds great to me!
  2. Oh man - that's awesome
  3. My working board for Bandeoke gigs. Never know what's coming, so I need simplicity and flexibility. The graphic is used as a boost (or a cut in this shot as I'm using it at home) The American sound always on to dirty up the basic sound. I never leave home without an octave, the synth and wah may be used if that kind of tune comes up. The boost kicks the American sound into a bit more dirt, the Splinter is for when I want to bring the ceiling down.
  4. I have a couple of these. Ridiculously, laughably light weight, they sound incredible regardless of the amp they're paired with.
  5. I registered interest because, well it's gear innit! I have, and have regularly gigged, a 100w tube amp (Ashdown) by the way and cannot imagine a band too loud for it. The deciding factor will probably be price, but with time to squirrel a little bit away, it might be feasible.
  6. Tension builds...
  7. I strongly believe any amp through a Barefaced cab will sound good. Also the Orange Terror used to sound amazing through my BF so I'm not surprised their other amps do too.
  8. Hi Greg. Put very simply the pitch shift alters the sound and puts it out of tune. It literally doesn't work. I'll record an example for you if you like. It's an area Mooer struggles with, I have a pitch shift pedal of theirs which similarly can't do it. Everything else is great. Seriously, the drive sounds are to die for. I found an always on dirt sound which gives that little bit of grit needed to cut through in the mix with no tone sacrifice. There is a fraction of a delay with the pedal. A deal-breaker for many I suspect, but not enough to bother me.
  9. Yeah, I forgot I'd left a bass out in the little shed at the back of the garage. It was like a Welsh longbow. But they're all bending.
  10. The ones that came from the Bass Centre with my BC basses are rather good
  11. Yes, no drive either. I have yet to really let it rip but early signs are encouraging
  12. Great pedal.
  13. I had a Shure system and it was ok until it wasn't. I've used line 6 and experienced irritating drop outs on occasions. My current wireless is a Lekato WS50 which comprises a pair of 5.8ghz 'bugs'. £30 off an eBay seller and never once given me any sort of an issue. I regularly gig for over three hours without a break, and they've always done this without needing a charge. The sound is entirely indistinguishable from high quality cable and I cannot imagine how any other system could possibly improve upon them.
  14. I love mine. If this was closer I'd have it in a heartbeat. Mine has been battered by years of gigging and neglect. A real gem of an amp this
  15. Saw this on FB market place, and even with the price of petrol, it was well worth a little jaunt up the M5. I love that folk won't touch HB gear, especially when I know just how good it is. The price was ludicrously cheap, the amp a belter. Loud as the apocalypse, built in tuner which works like a dream, silent fans, and a very usable compressor. Everything you want to access on the front of the amp, speakons at the rear. Excited to gig this.
  16. A fascinating read. Thank you for sharing.
  17. Another Bandeoke. This one outside at the Jolly Sailor. A lovely pub with the beer garden backing onto the River Avon at Saltford Lock. Beautiful and sunny, happy punters, Put my Elf through two cabs as we were outside. It coped effortlessly.
  18. Just back from a festival set. Used my new favourite combination of Elf/BF Midget. Assumed there was quite a lot of bass in the foldback on stage - but no! Engineer told me afterwards a little bit in the drummer's side fill, and nowhere else. That little Elf (and if course the BF cab) is a true wonder.
  19. Used mine through a Barefaced Midget on Thursday. As the title of this thread says - it never ceases to amaze me. Running at 8ohm, into quite a big space, with a loud drummer, I had room to spare. And it sounds amazing too.
  20. GWF4
  21. Colour me interested Stubbsy
  22. Just gigged with the P1. The sounds I used were excellent, the batteries lasted in both the effects unit and the wireless switcher. It was a 3 hour gig without a break so battery life is clearly not a problem. Downside? The switcher isn't instant, a fraction of a delay between switches. I got used to it very quickly and with a bit of anticipation it wasn't a problem. For someone else it might be a deal breaker. Also if you're a bit clumsy you can easily activate the drum machine by mistake. If like me you haven't worked out how to do this and more importantly how to switch it off again, this can cause some embarrassment.
  23. Great tool for silent practice. Headphone socket, plus it receives Bluetooth from your phone, has a metronome, drum machine and looper. And of course all those effects, and amp and cab sims. Apparently if your phone or tablet does OTG (whatever the heck that is) you can record directly from it too. And no power cables.
  24. A few pics...it's so tiny!
