Great cabs.

I had the rithimic 4. It really was an odd thing... Beautiful to look at. Then on another day a bit ugly and weird.... Sounded good but didn't have a great deal of personality or thump to it. Playability was great. They are very very good basses though.

Hi everyone, I don't know if anyone can help with this? I'm looking for a synth pedal that can cover 2 songs: INXS elegantly wasted and INXS dissappear (the piano type sound at the start) Would the future impact be able to do these? All the pedals I've seen demod are pretty much static notes. Any help appreciated.

Having just got one I'll have to say the Harley Benton mm4a at £169. Stunning for that price.

I have to take my request back..... I tried the bass today as standard and it was fantastic!! What a great bass this is. Genuinely 5 different sounds, built in eq. Lovely. The setting inbetween neck and middle is genuinely better than my old g&l l2000 USA. I'm so impressed by this bass.

Qhi all, does anyone have a link to these warman pickups? Also will they just swap straight in? I've the double humbucker Harley benton and that has the 5 way switch and is active?

For me, Laney have this market sown up, if only more people tried them. The Digbeth 500 head looks lovely and vintage. The cabs are all 4ohm and the whole range looks vintage and lovely like old ampegs. Sound is fantastic. I like ampeg, but I can't get on board with those looks I'm afraid.

With the decline of physical music shops on the high street, I thought I'd give promenade music in morecambe a great big up! Super helpful nice staff, x2 separate rooms for demoing gear in peace and quiet and to be fair the best bass collection I've ever seen. Loads and loads of sandbergs, rickenbackers, yamaha, Fender, squire, mark bass and much more. Makes pmts selection look like a small collection. Superb music shop. Highly recommended.

What was the lp everyone had around then with the dice on? Was it 'Hits 5'? Everyone I knew had that for some reason. That and Now 10 a few years later...

I use a Digbeth head and it's superb. Really superb. If the pedal is almost the same then it's a winner.

No. I don't know why, and it shouldn't do, but it's just one of those things that really annoys me.

100hz is the one! Flat and boost low mids. Job done.

I had one and I didn't feel there was any oomph or grit to be had from it unfortunately. There's no valve or ability to affect the preamp, but to be fair there doesn't claim to be. I loved the idea of one, it just didn't work for me. ABM600 is a far better option.

Just my opinion - and I'm not one to say don't follow your dreams - but I think vocational rather than academical is the way to go for music. I'm an average player compared to most highly educated players and those taught at college and uni, but I've got by due to hard work, luck and networking. Being involved in bands then meeting other bands, sound crew, lighting guys, venue owners etc. Learning promotion and putting events on. Being known as a reliable player people can rely on. Learning people skills and how to be likeable. Only my opinion, but I believe there's more chance of a career by diversifying and actually being out there, rather than studying music academically at college - especially with the fees nowadays. True, some make it and get in orchestras, touring parties etc, but proportionally how many don't? I can see how learning Bach inside out makes you a more rounded musician, but I don't see how it would make you more money. Make yourself an asset - learn your instrument well. Get out and play. Learn another. Learn sound engineering. Own some lighting. Learn how to promote. In short, make it difficult for people to get rid of you once you've got your foot in the door. Add to that, be prepared for late nights, humping gear around, dealing with people and pretty much anything but the playing side of things.

2 things I regularly see on these type of run downs - Some variant of a tech 21 unit and gk mb800s! I'm sure I saw duff from g n r used x2 mb800 as his main rig on one. Great to see Steve actually incorporating his pedal into the show though. Makes it more genuine for buyers of the pedal and not just a gimmick like some players do.

Put it in a pirate rehearsal room for a week?

I love rcf stuff. Heard loads of bands use them and they always sounded great. We use yamaha dxr15s in our party band and they're brilliant. Fill anywhere upto 200 easy. Nice sound, light, and mixer on the back too if your main one goes down. Just one word of advice, don't go for the dbr version - they're significantly quieter and worse quality then the dxr for only a few hundred difference.

Whatever it was it was flipping heavy! Probably up there with the old heavy 4x10s in terms of weight. I used to lug one upstairs to practice every week.
