  1. I had the Digitech Synth Wah which had some good sounds, especially for the price, but the lack of a blend control rendered it useless in a live band situation. I added a little mixer to mix the wet and dry signals but that's a faff you shouldn't have to do.
    I have just taken delivery of the MXR and I'm well impressed so far. It feels like it has been designed by a working bassist rather than a marketeer. I've plonked my OC-2 in front of it for a extra dollop of funkage.

  2. C-Audio ST 400 power amp.

    2 x 400 watts @ 4 ohm or bridged 800 watts @ 8 ohm.

    Really nice specs ([url="ftp://ftp.turbosound.com/tech_data/service_pack/Amplifiers/C-Audio%20ST%20%28impact%20amp%29.pdf"]ftp://ftp.turbosound.com/tech_data/service_pack/Amplifiers/C-Audio%20ST%20%28impact%20amp%29.pdf[/url]).

    Works great with a bass preamp or for PA etc, but a relatively noisy fan means it's not a good bedroom / studio amp.

    Top of case is marked and 'used' condition, but works a treat and low hours since last service.

    £100

    Collection from or meet near Newcastle. Too heavy to post (14Kg).

  3. Headline debut of my new funk and groove band, Superheat.
    Music from The Meters, The Temptations, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Stevie Wonder, Jamiroquai, James Taylor Quartet, Larry Graham - that kinda thing.
    Hoochie Coochie, Thursday January 17th 2013, 8pm. Free entry.

    If slap bass offends, probably not for you!

  5. Just put this in the Gigs section, so I thought I might aswell put it here in the right place too.

    Llive recording of my new band Superheat performing the Chili Peppers' Hump De Bump.

    Recorded on a Zoom H1 at the back of the venue with some post-processing (eq / compression / limiting). It's a little reverberant but I haven't found a plug-in yet that will remove that :)

  6. We were 'pro' and have gone hobby as we can't spare the time and commitment to booking up weddings and the like. We used to go out for minimum £100 a man plus hired-in PA. Tonight we go out for nowt (for charity) but we're playing stuff we want to play. No 'Superstition'. No 'Valerie'. We will have a damn good funky time with friends!

    Different motivation, music vs money. It's a shame we have to pick one, but our set tonight is like a breath of fresh air!

  7. My new funk covers project Superheat will debut supporting punk rockers Ladykillers at a fundraiser for Burmese Trade Unions.

    Tues 17th April at The Cluny

    We'll be hammering out a half hour or so of Jamiroquai, Bill Withers, Stevie Wonder, Chili Peppers, Meters etc.
