  1. I'm doing it so the players can talk between songs and still hear each other. You are quite closed off with IEMs
  2. perfect, that's what I was looking for did you have it on a footswitch, to turn it on when speaking and off when playing
  3. forgive me for this request Somewhere in this thread there is someting about using an ambient mic so that band members could converse between songs It was some sort of Behringer, could someone let me know which one please thanks
  4. I'm out mate. My wife thought the singer was a Tw@t and so did another mate. I should have listened to them
  5. band bought gear always creates a problem somewhere down the line But going IEM has changed my world. I simply use the headphone socket on most gigs and can hear what I need I am thinking to buy a new Allen and Heath CQ20 desk though. Read the IEM thread on this site and you'll find lots of useful info
  6. So I'm in this band, we've done one (sold out) show. The drummer (lovely guy) isn't quite good enough. Singer wants to bring a drummer in from one of his other bands and the bass player. Ths leaves me as a dep and the band leader was flannelling me about it, 'we need to get the other girl fronted show going and the blues rock thing' and 'we need a pool of players and deps' This is why I gave up chasing the dream 30 years ago. Too much bull ship for me I actually thought me and the band leader were friends I'm actually very disappointed in it all. But I still have my other bands and now I have some more free dates as I won't be doing any of the booked shows
  7. I have the HB PB-50. After a little set up (filed the nut, rolled the fingerboard edges) it's awesome. It's my main bass in my Police Tribute band. Stcok Roswell pickup. Machine heads feel cheap but they hold tune perfectly. So far I've done two gigs with it with a third coming up this weekend. I'm really pleased with it
  8. my brother has a Guyton time warp RS. It's very cool
  9. Andy's just bought a set of Fender flats from me. Super easy transaction with great comms. Deal with confidence, cheers
  10. I found out the bass player in my 80s band has one on order, hopefully I'll get a look at it
  11. before covid struck, I was gigging at least twice a weekend, then came lockdown and no gigs. I realised that I dont need to gig and enjoy the weekends off (I work full time, running my own business) I book nearly all my gigs but I don't need the money (but it's handy and I wont play for peanuts) I only do gigs I want to now, I'm 56 this year and have played every hell hole in Kent/south east. Happy birthday to you bluewine, keep on rockin' brother
  12. mine is channel 38. it needs a license. It's a sennheiser and is very good
  13. I've bought another Brian May guitar. This one is the Super. It's a little bit closer to Brian's guitar but still not an outright replica It has an enormous neck and silky smooth fingerboard for strung bending 7 pounds and 4 ounces Will be gigging it this weekend
  14. I know nothing about these and don't want one BUT FUDGE ME, that is lovely, even the fret ends look like a work of art Nice score
  15. I agree to all that's been written so far. Thanks to this site, I have a Pbass Special, a bass I've always wanted, in the colour I've always wanted. (I dont play it, of course, JMJ Mustang all the way lol) I've learnt about In Ear Monitoring, which wireless mic to buy etc etc. Lots of people here with good advice and easy to deal with sales and trades Keep it up chaps
  16. I used this lekato set up yesterday. I have a 5.8 on the guitar too. Latency wasn't a problem at all and it seemed to work really well. The receiver was nomore than 2 metres fro the transmitter at any point. No drop out and a good sound. I will try it on a band gig this weekend, where they will be slightly further apart.
  17. I worked in a Canterbury shop and we custom ordered a 4000 in Battleship grey. It was an amazing colour it was 1990/91 IIRC
  18. I have a B205D you can try Chris. I'm not using it since I went IEM. I'm in River.
  19. I happily run my Ashdown RM500 evo II through a Markbass club 1x15. sounds good to me, for bigger gigs I add a MB 2x10 for more spread. I also have an Ashdown RM 4x10 that I use. I'm really not that bothered which cab I use
  20. I used to do my homework on a sunday night, after the charts, listening to her show
