    Sax player. Jazz snob, abrasive, arrogant Scottish knob. Played in a band with him for 6 years and I don't think he ever bought a round (not that I'm stereotyping him).

    Peavey for me too. I don't mind Ashdown stuff but these combos were gutless. By comparison, the Peavey is a bit of a beast.

    Our drummer once said 'If ever I reach a point where I don't know what to listen to, I always go straight back to Judas Priest'. That was 9 years ago and it's never been a problem.

    Looks like it was 'adapted' by Jeremy Clarkson and friends.

    I've got the Time Core delay which sounds pretty good on bass. Has quite a nice reverby sound on the analogue setting.

    My 200 watter isn't at all heavy due to modern transformer technology. It's obviously not class D light, but it's not any problem to pick up either.

    I've got the 200 watt version and it's an absolute peach of an amp. Build quality, sound and power are all 10 out of 10. Fabulous.

    Joyo American Sound is a nice pedal with plenty of grunt on tap or just a smidge if that's what you're after. I picked up an Ampeg Scrambler quite cheaply as well which does the job you describe very nicely.

    I've been to gigs with fantastic musicians and expensive tickets where all I can hear is people trapping off about their tiresome lives and other random garbage. People often aren't interested when they know who they've gone to see and have paid a fortune to be there.

    I use a Vitoos ISO4 Plus on a pedal board and find it really good. I keep digital and analogue pedals separated and have a couple of the analogue pedals daisy chained and it works perfectly. Under £30 on Ebay and is very slim and neat.

    A few left.

    As already stated - make sure you have a speaker plugged in before you fire it up, otherwise blue smoke will eminate from your lovely new amp.

    I enjoyed it. Watched it on the night and would still be watching it now if all of the people mentioned so far in the thread had been included in the programme. Not sure what people actually expect from a one hour programme.

    Sad news. Loved SAHB back in the day and after Alex departed as well.

    They gave you a shewee at primary school? I thought all the gender neutral stuff in schools was a recent phenomenon.

    I mostly gig now with my Harley Benton 50 P Bass and leave my Stingray, Lakland and Tokai at home.

    Try positioning your thumb on your fretting hand opposite your 2nd finger. It's comfortable to position it opposite your index finger but it makes stretching for other notes much more difficult.

    You have friends here Ozzma. If you can record your music I'm sure there will be people here interested in what you do and keen to discuss it with you.

    I wish we played this. I'd set it up on the Looper and then I could wander off, have a pint, read the paper, have a look round the shops and probably fill in my tax return.

    I'm in - mainly because I'm utterly skint but I have to say that my enforced abstainance seems to have had a remarkable effect on GAS. Not really interested in anything and haven't been for quite a while. I've flogged a few bits and pieces too.

    My Father In Law used to say 'Get your guitar out and play us a tune'. I would reply that bass isn't really an instrument for that sort of thing and he'd then get grumpy. I suppose I should have just treated everybody to the bassline from Simple Minds - Waterfront for 10 minutes and that would have been the end of it.

    Those Rumblekats look nice but the control knob panel looks horrendous (to me). The only way they could have made it worse would have been to nail it on.

    It's the nature of auditions that a lot of them are a waste of time and it goes with the territory. Sometimes something will just click, not necessarily just the music either.

    Ibanez Talman get good reviews although I've not heard or played one.
  25. Japhet
    If you're that uninspired by it I'd turn up and jam it to see how it feels. If you miss out it's not a disaster and you haven't spent your time learning stuff you don't like. It might even lead to something more enjoyable.
