  1. I cant find a price for the new R400's....
  2. Exactly how I have my Keeley set and its perfect!
  3. My wife has just caught me looking at this beauty.....fortunately she thought l was looking at your Chaise Lounge......is it for sale, whats your best price, would you deliver?
  4. This truly is a thing of beauty! I bet it plays and sounds incredible......
  5. Never ever look at my fretboard markers...just use the side neck markers for reference. Years ago l was in a band where we were all different children's characters....and l was Postman Pat. I ended up having to wear a paper machè Pats head with little round eyelets for vision! Hardly ever look at the fretboard much now...
  6. Brilliant little amps...sold my Mesa D800 for one of these babies and just love it. Glwts...proper steal!
  7. Jon Shuker x 2....he's the man. Sheffield based and brilliant!
  8. I'm not going to get caught out by this silly point!
  9. A second hand Barefaced cab would be my choice and perfect for small intimate gigs too. Also consider a 1x10 BF cab.
  10. I had a Subway D800 bought from a very nice gent on BC as l wanted one for a long time. Paired it with a bf compact for 2 rehearsals in our Soul band and never used it again and was sold soon after. I found it lifeless, lacking punch, depth and dynamics no matter how l set the controls. I was really disappointed with it. I bought an Orange Terror mk 2 and love it and then dropped on the best amp l have ever had the pleasure to play through....Handbox R400! I regularly use both amps and love them. The Mesa just wasn't for me though. My suggestion would be to borrow one if you can and use it at regular band volume and see how it fits/sounds in the overall mix. After all its very subjective...good luck with your quest mate.
  11. This post cannot be displayed because it is in a forum which requires at least 1 post to view.
  12. The attenuators are great if you have a hot DI. I had to use one on my mk1 Terror 500 but l now have the mk2 version and the DI is fine. The appropriate attenuator will sort it for you no problem.
  13. This happened to me a few years ago when l sold an Seat FR headlight. The guy said it didn't fit so sent it back signed for and recorded delivery. It was just a small envelope with bubble wrap inside! I contacted ebay and their fraud department who sorted it all out and l got paid the full amount. Dont know what happened to the scammer though!
  14. Absolute steal...........brilliant cabs/rig. Loved my Trace gear in the 80/90's. Can't believe I used to gig 2x 4x10's and an AH500.
  15. AAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, no mate...please take it away from the radiator! Fecked up a completely good Columbus first bass doing that....neck ended up unplayable!
  16. I must be totally weird...after reading all theses hate gig comments..... Im 65, been playing double bass/electric bass since the age of 8. Played in bands aged 14, been all over the UK gigging and loved every single moment...from the rough and ready gigs to the very top end big payers! I love the drive to and from gigs, setting up and ragging down it just ticks every box l've ever wanted to do. I really do understand all the things everyone detests about gigging but for me, playing bass has been a privilege and a totally pleasure.....
  17. Great little amps these, especially the MK2 model....I love mine. Glwts
  18. The new amp sounds great and looks the dogs as well. I'm using my trusty R400 tonight with a couple if compacts at High Green Social Club, Sheffield tonight...this amp is also awesome. Pics to follow.
  19. Tried learning this and its a right pain! Wife told me off for kicking the dog and reorganising the dining room furniture....
  20. When should they retire? As soon as they start sounding as bad a McCartney, Elton John, Blondie, Madona et al......
  21. Get rid asap, its just not worth the hassle. Short term pain but long term gain. If this guy isnt even willing to communicate face to face or turn up for rehearsals then whats the point. Ive been in good bands that have been torn apart by arrogant, egotistical singers/guitarist and troublesome wifes/girlfriends and it just does not work out. Cut your losses mate, either get rid or find another band where everyone is rowing the same boat👍
