Fully agree with this... I run my own band in Devon and really get wound up when the guys start pushing in or being demanding. In our contract there's a 'Things that help us but are not demands' section that allows the clients to let us know if we're being fed, watered and green roomed, no pressure. Means we can plan in advance, and there's no excuse for anyone to arrive and whine about being hungry. Usually we're fully invited to all, in which case it's just about behaving respectfully. Have done plenty of dep gigs where I feel uncomfortable about the way the band are acting towards the client on this subject, especially when the demands are super picky for peoples requirements!

Hey @scalpy, Teignmouth, Devon!

Can only echo the above... I pop in there most weeks and his setups are stunning!

Concur with all of the above... very easy to do a deal with!

Or, more simply perhaps... through your bass/pedalboard/DI/Whatever you could get a tone you like, and enjoy playing to...and then let anyone on FOH work with that the same as they would your amp sound. This is where stuff like the MXR/Sadowsky/Noble Preamps/DIs come in. My favourite thing about IEMS is that what I'm playing to is representative of what I'm sending to the PA, so I can be reasonably aware of how the changes I make apply to the FOH. I don't really want what I'm hearing to be different to the DI feed.

@cannongeorge I've been asking for that for a while now, but no luck! Just the vintage Js and Ps!

Cheers guys, much appreciated! It lookalike they might have some appropriate ones in stock so I may pull the trigger and see!

So...Maruszczyk owners! A few questions... I'm looking for the dream 5 string P/J, and was wondering if 1. There happened to be any Maruszczyk owners living in my neck of the woods (Devon/Dorset) who might let me play one, and also for those who bought new if you all went through public-peace, who seem to be the main site for the brand? Whats the general build time?

Spot on, super quick and an absolute pleasure!
