My 1st thought was a Rumble and I see I'm the third to mention this...makes it conclusive I reckon!

I got a Jazz and slung a John East pre in it, loved it for a while, but my Yam kept calling me back, played the Jazz at a rehearsal about a year ago and HATED the sound it was giving me, couldn't dial in anything that suited, was lusting after a Nate Mandel but ended up with a mother of pearl flavour MiM which is my 'go to' at the moment, keep meaning to sell the Jazz but hasn't quite happened yet. The Yam still calls to me though.

Great gig last night, new album is full of proggy goodness and the guys made a brilliant job of reproducing it live. Also aired some of my favourite songs, from Air Cut, and even my good lady who came along for the ride, enjoyed herself immensely (prog not really her thing)

Blimey, will have to listen out for that then, listen VERY hard mind as I don't have much truck with them popular radio stations nowadays!

Exciting this ain't it?

Pledged, very impressed with what I've heard so far. Can't wait for the CD!

Leeds eh? I smell Fump's handiwork here! Deliberate mistakes included

Yup http://www.pmtonline.co.uk/bass/ The guys in Northampton aint too bad, but they suffer a bit from the 'oh you want a bass let me slap the f#ck out of it for 5 mins first' disease, which can be mildly annoying

Now THATS how I like my prog....none of yer double bass drum proto metal crud, that has a deft light touch and was very enjoyable, how can I hear more?

Just picked up the Album, was released late March I believe, loving Stay Human and Images And Signs http://www.amazon.co.uk/North-Star-Curved-Air/dp/B00I4581OU/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1397845730&sr=8-3&keywords=curved+air You guys are at the Stables in MK next week, I'll be there!

Didn't know whether to dance or laugh......so I did both........cats are giving me weird looks!

Good luck fella, post up a set list, I'll be interested to see what ye do!

Just another reason why I never frequent the site and have no plans to in the future!

I tend to really dig in too, so nothing too low for me, just annoying.

[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1395254040' post='2400318'] I prefer to use my own rig, but don`t have a problem using a provided rig is it`s a swift changeover type gig.[u] Last night I used a Behringer Ultrabss, wasn`t bad, was an open-mic night so no chance of soundcheck or anything so got what I thought sounded right. Apparently not too good in the mix[/u], so that`s the danger - the whole band end up without the right overall sound. Still, far happier to have done the gig (3 songs) with other peoples gear, than to have not done it. [/quote] here ya go folks you can now be the judge, a short clip I managed to grab off my phone!

Reidmar IMO is a great little piece of kit, I bought one as an easy to carry backup for my Eden head, but nowadays leave the Eden at home. The reidmar may only be 250W at 4 ohms but by god its loud. Together with my Barefaced Compact its a light but damn loud combination. Might just squeeze in on your budget if you go 2nd hand Hope this helps.

I had a peavey cirrus 5iver that I had to move on as it was unplayable for the likes of my sausage fingers, 16mm I believe, the Yam TRB5 I replaced it with is MUCH nicer!!

WT actual F was that all about?

I smiled out loud!
