it's actually only the guitarist who is original but the current bass player, Frank Allen did join them early on The new singer has been there 35 years now I saw them a couple of years ago, they were fabulous

last sunday I did a band gig with QSC K10s and Ksubs instead of the K12s and subs sound man (keyboard player) said it sounded the same, it's a result as they're 4Kg lighter each Will be trying them on a duo gig (80s stuff, lots of keys and backing tracks) this weekend (the K10s) on the deep setting I'm really hoping they cut it because they have wider dispersion and are lighter

it's a lovely surprise when they go together so easily I've done 2 recently and am amazed at how good they are

I absolutely love the remix, the whole vibe, magic

thank you this is all great info It turns out we already have some images that we have used in the past, on a laptop So we need to check with the venues that are up next

actually that's a really good point do the venues you play at, charge for using the kit

The click track is on an ipad, some tracks are just a click and have no set length (drummer stops and starts) and some tracks have some keyboard augmentations on them and so are a set track We only do gigs in venues that supply the PA and light systems, so proper venues but some have smaller stage areas than other For example we recently played The Horn in St Albans. Fantastic PA and soundman but somewhat cramped on stage. Chinnery's in Southend is similar but a bigger stage Thanks for chipping in on this too, it is much appreciated

to be honest, I have no idea at this stage we want to improve our visuals for the bigger gigs that we do I suppose their will need to be some synchronisation. The whole gig is played to a click, so potentially could sync to that

Does anyone use on stage projections with their band setup showing either still images or video clips, or both How do you do it please We're thinking of something like this in U2 Tribe but I have no idea where to start

Mental health as anything

there's only one solution here (IMO) Walk

It's just a body that john sprayed the wrong colour and let me have it cheap to make the red Sting fretless The paint wasnt even flattened and polished It has a fender 63 pickup in it and sounds amazing Just shy of 10 pounds in weight

Its not very exciting I was trying to spray the whole thing metal flake gold from rattle cans but i didnt think it was good enough So the body is still a fiesta red colour It originally had a fretless maple board, again from china

I haven't even adjusted the truss rod yet The nut slot on the E string needs a little file but other than that, it does play really well. I will roll the fingerboard edge at some point. The fretting is good, no sharp ends and well seated

has it come yet?

Actually I've had 2 necks from ebay The 2nd one is on my Adam Clayton '74 Pbass look-a-like it came from here https://www.ebay.co.uk/str/highendguitarneckstore?_trksid=p4429486.m3561.l170197 It was a 21 fret jazz bass with dots and a nice amber tint on the neck

my '73 is 8.8 pounds

I wondered about that. Extended fingerboard then

what gauge as well please These PB50s are great basses

looks lush mate

double post

I have 3 now 1 from ebay 2 from Aliexpress the ebay one is attached to a Bravewood body and sounds amazing. It may need a fret level, I'm off on a course to do fret levelling the Aliexpress one, tinted laquer and 70s logo, plays superb. Attached to a random P bass body and it all works as it should you should be fine mate

yep agreed and roll the board edges too a job for next week i think

it was already on it along with a US serial number good job the truss rod is adjusted from the headstock need to stain the plain bits of wood a little but I was eager to see how it went together

Thanks Lozz
