Price drop & bump

Sourcing Labella Strings, pref Online, UK ? Q. UPDATED AGAIN
burno70 replied to BigBeatNut's topic in Accessories and Misc
I'm thinking of going flats myself and couldn't find these in the UK - try thomann - [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/la_bella_strings_for_electric_bass.html"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/la_bella_strings_...ctric_bass.html[/url] The Bass Doc - you have a PM. -
Sold Nigel my BMS, nice bloke, easy to deal with - would buy/sell from him again, no problemo.

[quote name='TheButler' post='646700' date='Nov 5 2009, 09:08 PM']It supports 2 expression pedals.[/quote] OK, but are you going to use two at once? Won't you have to have really good balance for that? I think I'm missing the point - maybe it'll become clear when I have a play with my M9 which arrived just before - roll on 5pm!
-
Yeah I've noticed a few bods are using 2 volume / expressions pedals - whys that?
-
I've ordered an M9 and want to use an expression pedal with it - never used one of these before - apart from true bypass, is there anything I need to look out for - anyone any recommendations? Cheers Incidentally, the cheapest I found the M9 for was £315 via GAK via the independant sellers on Amazon.)
-
Hmm, thanks for chipping in there - you may have saved me some hassle. THe chap seems like a decent sort and I feel bad about it already but it looks like I'll have to turn him down.
-
^^^ It sure is - thanks for the speedy transaction mate and it will be posted tomorrow
-
Fantastic, cheers guys. Just wondering - can you send recorded delivery?
-
I've got an interested party from Italy who wants to buy a pedal from me. I've never sold or posted anything abroad before - does anyone know if there are any hidden charges or indeed anything in particular I need to look out for? Thanks

[quote name='thisnameistaken' post='644688' date='Nov 3 2009, 08:37 PM']It's a bit like my Meatwad but not as good. [/quote] But in all seriousness, despite having a Meatwad, I find myself gassing for this pedal. I'm not a major knob twiddler (fnarr fnarr) I find the major knobbage of the Meatwad daunting at times and have seemingly lost "that sound" on more than a few occaisions - I think less could be more in this case and that appeals to me. Although the sound it makes is always gonna be the bottom line. Would love to hear some funkyass clips please!

[quote]I use distortion for 90% of the time, but for 80% of that it's probably fairly subtle[/quote] That pretty much sums up my approach too.

I honestly wouldn't let this put you off similar events. This one may have been a disaster but the next one could be a total blast - you never know. I won't agree to anything until I have all the details. You never want to turn up and not know how long your set is (as you found out the hard way) as you mention above - it may not be worth your time. What you / your band need to do is clarify all the details before agreeing to any gig. Gear, set time / length, payment, soundcheck etc. This is something you would have learned as you became more experienced at sourcing gigs anyway. Once you have this info then you'll at least you'd know whether you're right to be pissed off with gig organiser if all doesn't go according to plan. I hope I didn't come across as patronising there. It's just what I've learned to do when I'm looking for gigs - and good luck with your future gigs

Nice one for the clip! It sounds phat.
-
I got the predecessor to this amp called the perfect 10 60 minirig. Really nice praccy amp! This new one looks even sleeker!
-
Can you do clips at all? I'd love to hear it.

Completely Dissatisfied With My Music.

[quote]In your original post, there's one positive element -- the metalhead drummer in your main band. I'm just wondering if you are able to contact him and see if he might be up for doing something different -- perhaps form a new band with you,[/quote] +1, thats what I'd do. -
Hey thanks for the quick and helpful replies. I hadn't considered changing the EQ on the fly or boosting the mids to overdrive dirt pedals. Cheers!
-
when you can use your amp or bass EQ's? Just wondering, thanks.
-
Now thats gotta be the coolest bedroom praccy amp I've ever seen - I'm surprised your parents didn't take an axe to that beast! Good luck with the sale - why not get a small micromark? -
It sounds like your a leader type within the band - which is fine, every band needs people who go above and beyond to carry the weight of the less motivated. But there is a difference between people who aren't as motivated and people who are unmotivated. If fun turns into frustration its probably time to call it a day - it's just not worth it mate. Why should you stress when no one else acts like they gives a toss? If you are still reluctant to dis-band why don't you take your foot of the gas a bit and see if anyone else comes to the fore - and in the meantime try to get something else going - your obviously a proactive person - get your adverts up on website and in music shops and leave these wasters when the opportunity presents itself?

band guitarist problem are we being unreaonable
burno70 replied to peety's topic in General Discussion
It's a funny one innit. On one hand he's given 2 months notice which is decent (although via email is shoddy) but on the other hand you have gigs booked. Personally, if someone in the band wants out I'd rather they left sooner and plow on regardless rather than putting up with deadwood. -
I just do minor tweaks. The rehearsal rooms my band are in are often tiny so I cut down the bottom end a bit to remove any muddiness and brighten the mids slightly to help me cut through the din.
