police squad

There was a local drummer who had a white one (back in the day) and IIRC it was the brain child of the drumming legend Chris Slade (strangely also local)

Souled out to funk

I bought some strings from Chris, good comms and strings turned up, nicely packed too Deal with confidence Thanks Chris

Sounds promising Jack, hang in there

Sloppy work, well done🤣

cool, I might look into one, great info thanks Jack

sounds great. Does the harmony pedal create 3rds and 5ths etc I have the TC electronics harmony G but last time I used it, I found it a bit too complicated

crikey, that is taking it seriously. Do all the mics go into the required pedal first, then off to the mixer?

do you have a mic mechanic? I'm curious now

hang in there Jack, we're all rooting for you

that's very disappointing. My first one went wrong on it's first gig, the replacement has always been superb.

how old is your PF500?

I gigged on saturday, small pub, QSC K12s no subs and A&H Zed FX desk IEM coming from headphone socket so I get a FOH sound. No wireless gear at all (my back is still playing up, so I need a really easy setup) so wired mic, guitar and IEM sounded awesome

I've not noticed this but I dont do that many gigs these days. Will check on my next gig

that thing sounds good I think Glad I dont want a Stingray, otherwise....................

snap, wish I still had mine

It's been so long since I've gigged it, I dont really know. Its very very light though. I swapped a 100 watt Marshall Superbass for it, with a guy in Newcastle. It's got a great neck on it too

the world is full of entitled keyboard heroes. In the old days, you placed an ad and someone phoned you. People were more genuine then. Now it's too easy to back out and people really do waste your time. Just a fact of life I do use marketplace and have had some success

you cant sing harmonies to off pitch singing, I was in a band like that. It's an art to actually sing along with a singer, especially if they change the phrasing from the original

covers or originals? I wish more people would learn to do BVs, they really fill the sound if (if they're good obviously)

normally 2 x 1 hour for my 80s band, 80s duo and Police Tribute. I did a gig late last year and we did 2 x 45 mins. It was over in a heart beat

certainly sir, I have removed the vibrola, these pictures were when I bought it, 18 or so years ago

If you can see a way forward and it will settle down, keep buggering on. (this is what I used to do and it was eventually ok) If you don't think it will settle, personally, I would have to leave. Life is just too short to have to deal with sh!t from bands. I folded my last band due to the idiot guitarist bullying the new drummer. Band mates wouldn't listen to my solution (which was to get my wife on the bass and me switch to guitar and everything would have improved, she does BVs and plays like me) So I folded it

simple is sometimes best. I love a good telecaster. Wish I'd kept the jr now, but still have a '67 SG jr
