  1. have a look for Crimson Guitars and their stunning stains on youtube. Ben goes to great lengths to show how he does it. Also Crimson guitars.com
  2. I tried many years ago and couldn't stop the wire breaking. Doesn't stop me from thinking it might be fun to try again though.
  3. Can't answer that one other than to say that it just didn't look right.
  4. I found this after spending hours sanding with a radius block. I cured it by even more sanding but with more emphasis on the nut end. It worked but I'm sure there must be easier and quicker ways to do it. Thinking about it, even using a jig must give the same result unless the nut end of the fingerboard is raise a bit.
  5. A Barefaced 2x10 is pretty much as loud as a normal 4x10 so you may only need one and because the crossover in the cab you get maximum dispersion which ever way you have the cab.
  6. All this talk about Nickelback made think I've never heard them so didn't really know what you were talking about so I watched a few videos on the tube and they're not bad, some good tunes there. I'm going to listen to a few more. As far as listening to the Beatles in 1000 years time, why shouldn't they. A good song is a good song when ever it was written. During my lifetime we've had vinyl, cassettes, CDs and now digital downloads and I'm sure that whatever technology is developed next all the good songs will be available on it. Just think of the profits to be made selling yet more versions of the same songs.
  7. Guitar build, excellent. Semi-acoustic, also excellent. Guitar or bass the build is the same so please carry on and I'm looking forward to seeing the process.
  8. If they're replacing your amp and cab they're not that expensive.
  9. I found this myself when recording. Tried all the amps and cabs and effects and wasn't happy, plugged straight into the desk and I'm a happy bunny. The perfect sound, so it's not just you. I wish it was that simple live.
  10. Selmer treble and bass 100. Hiwatt or Mywatt Simms Watt AP 100 Marshall Superbass 100 The list goes on.
  11. Does the nut material actually make any difference on anything but open strings?
  12. The underground was the London tube system.
  13. Before my time, just.
  14. When I were a lad, You only had pop, ie, chart hits and pop groups. From about 1967 things started to change and music became heavier and we started to get rock bands so we became bands and not pop groups. Just the two categories. Where the rest came from I've no idea.
  15. I'M WATCHING!
  16. The suspense is intense!
  17. These are brilliant. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/203221794216?_trkparms=aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D233036%26meid%3D5c91e0f234c4477da17ab68643a67f90%26pid%3D101195%26rk%3D5%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D224022776741%26itm%3D203221794216%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D0%26pg%3D2047675%26algv%3DSimplAMLv8MlcUltbPairwiseNativeDarwoXgbV1&_trksid=p2047675.c101195.m1851&amdata=cksum%3A2032217942165c91e0f234c4477da17ab68643a67f90|enc%3AAQAGAAACAC0NmjteTe1mzLeOCA5gAPn8kRkq%2FjxVaEgAJyfjFzOyVAsRM4seoWyArOb9dNDIOZKenWv2gWNImoPEGiKK%2B2W%2BBSBzaNUgHZ5QmKqOhY5B8EOzoiS2bZHS8lAoLzLTcmGGy%2FH60tpi7EZPp4Txjb176UBsJrAY6k366e%2FKI6UccYrazke3Ni%2FvdFDGrD7gJIDj5oBS7iN4CbRtVYjL0vTtIRTHyCulUtfW2wQ3DzDALi3dExJ5QwnxuSeWJcK3%2BHNljG4BXe%2BLll14Ea0HaGKWXcPNx3V6Dbj37hOq6kcIokyfdLTT9I0sQAXNaN8UMiFLRqow4KxENiUd4dmYTqinKndUg2BU8%2Fz%2BRAlAF3jRxsjhRQEkFY%2BobKVhJVVufMIm3kvq1ximq6S1PEq5kQQl7HCZxE5K1abTq1txeDSrfJmdJeGlBm4PzRe3TV0vMtWHZ%2FflWKMvyrTfNMZ%2B5VtGcbImtIXWyxrJ4j2SHekdJNMUMFi24hSoXPrrgF9aUxTqEsI400Q9WuJsHO%2Bx%2BY3wD1RjvHVxr0LSeQPef7JR%2BqeqGaU6GJsTT845Mz3%2BK%2Fh%2BUUi61cSQdDU4KoLnTd09rvNVUCKPZ2TQDk0HAaLtFAF3pDJ%2Fw4Lm9hsLZ8DtfFORXH8M2audoGyNJ1ySCYsEJDi%2FpBcigsrrGwukII%2Fs|ampid%3APL_CLK|clp%3A2047675 That's a surprisingly long link.
  18. Available as 5v USB powered. might be easier to power using just a phone charger or powerbank.
  19. Interesting than as well as his EB3, he used Marshall 100w valve amps and 4x12s to get his superb sound which as we all know, are no good for bass what so ever and certainly not loud enough to gig with.😀 I've used an emoji for the first time. how about that.
  20. Following with interest as well.
  21. And one for Deep Purple fans. I have to say that I think Sweet were a brilliant band, just listen to their albums!
  22. I have to say that that's a lot more art worthy than the unmade bed or the pile of bricks.
  23. I'd use a small mixer for that. Feed the signal to inputs then stereo out to the P.A. and use a monitor output to the drummer.
  24. I've only ever played in 3 piece bands and the gaps feeling empty are not apparent to the audience. You may think it, but the audiences attention is on the solo. The only things that you could try to do is have a cutting bass tone and for the drummer to perhaps play more fills and add more cymbals.
