[quote name='Geddys nose' timestamp='1491826629' post='3275617'] I know you want to go Barefaced but I've now got RCF 745's you can have demo of. Easily put the full band through them and superb for vocals. [/quote] Thanks for the offer Si! That's really kind of you. It's a minefield out there but after days of searching, I've definitely decided to buy the Barefaced. Hopefully, pay for them Friday and then "The Wait" begins! I'll keep you posted!

New band quandary - advice sought, please...
itsmedunc replied to solo4652's topic in General Discussion
I'd do the recording. Surely, the songs you are going to record will be well rehearsed by then? Concentrate on getting them right. You can always re-record the bass if you feel you need to. If you still feel unsure, you could always play a shorter set at the gig? Besides, 25 songs is quite a big repertoire anyway. Never mind 30! -

Great Gig, Great Crowd, Great Business $$, But We Don't Want You Back
itsmedunc replied to blue's topic in General Discussion
[quote name='gjones' timestamp='1491608541' post='3274351'] We played a Saturday every month at a venue, for 4 years. Sold a sh*t load of booze and filled the place up (you have to pay to get in). The crowd loved us and danced the night away. The owner, loved the money we made for him (even though he was a Jazzer and probably wasn't really into our music) and kept on booking us, as we pulled a crowd. Unfortunately he passed away and his daughter took over the bar. Since then we haven't been booked for any gigs and she ignores our emails. Now she books muso Jazz bands, which are not going to appeal to an under 30s crowd, on a Saturday night. Good luck to her, I hope she doesn't go out of business.. [/quote] We played at a home town pub, it used to be very busy but the landlords daughter took it over and made it into a dance sort of rave pub? Weird as ravers were renowned for not drinking! Anyway, St George's Day we played and it was unbelievably busy from 11am. So much so that, although we were on free beer all day, we went to the local Wetherspoons to get served! We played and then they shut the gig down, turned it into a rave thing again. Everybody left and about 14 kid 'ravers' turned up and we're incredibly obnoxious to the folk that were left. We decided not to play there again... -

[quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1491768690' post='3275271'] Can you have a row with Mrs Itsmedunc, leave the Thunder2 nearby so that she can break it (please specify near the TOP of the headstock) and sell me the remains CHEAP?? [/quote] Mrs itsmedunc is on the wine. I can't start an argument as it will be my neck that's broken! -
Ad pulled from Gumtree (Ric and not so much Ric content)

I don't know if it's just me but every Rik I've ever played, felt like an old plank with an Ikea kitchen door nailed to it? I really don't see the attraction! -
How much for a Westone Thunder Bass?
itsmedunc replied to TheGreek's topic in eBay - Weird and Wonderful
[quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1491764522' post='3275237'] I'd like to find a cheap one with a broken headstock which could be converted to headless...let me know if anybody breaks one... [/quote] I've got the Thunder 2 V2 now. It's virtually a T3. The only difference I can see is, the 2 has a different headstock decal. This one has soap bars and mine has P/J's but that was just part of the differing version on all models. They are truly great basses. Never Mind The Headstocks! -

Thunder 3. One of the best! Love em! -
Andy bought a Freeman bass from me. Absolutely no problems. He's a really nice guy and I wouldn't hesitate to deal with him again. Thanks Andy!

My bass on Ebay - Ibanez SR300B
itsmedunc replied to jonnyenglish358's topic in eBay - Weird and Wonderful
[quote name='jonnyenglish358' timestamp='1491565895' post='3274003'] Oh rioght didnt realise that in which case can someone take it down? didnt realise. Seems a pretty pointless thing to not be able to but dont wanna upset peeps. Sorry Jon [/quote] At the bottom of your post, you will see the editor. Just delete it from there. -
I have both of these up in separate ads but if you want to buy the two together the price is £1300. Both in good condition and work really well together. The desk is a brilliant piece of kit but in a never ending bid to streamline, I want to change it over to a Behringer XR18. The X18 (which can be controlled from an iPad, Android devices, Mac or PC) has 16 Midas preamps, 6 aux channels (brilliant for in ears) and countless routing possibilities. Built in effects, compression etc. You can save all the settings, which is great for recalling settings from venues etc where you have already played. Saves loads of sound check time. Shows straight up in Logic etc for multi-track recording. It's about 12 months old. [url="http://www.gear4music.com/PA-DJ-and-Lighting/Behringer-X18-X-AIR-Digital-iPad-Tablet-Mixer/XOX?origin=product-ads&utm_campaign=PLA+Shop+-+Behringer&utm_medium=vertical_search&network=google&adgroup=1+-+Product+Level+-+Behringer&merchant_id=1279443&product_id=43665d1&product_country=GB&product_partition_id=111959738959&gclid=CLDSqqihktMCFUQq0wodY6sIzw"]http://www.gear4musi...CFUQq0wodY6sIzw[/url] The HK rig sounds great. 2 tops, 2 subs. We put 4 vocals, 2guitars, bass and the full kit through it with ease. Very small footprint. Has covers but one of the zips is knackered. [url="http://hkaudio.com/products.php?id=7"]http://hkaudio.com/products.php?id=7[/url] [url="http://www.theaudioworksuk.com/index.php/hk-audio-elias-px-1600w-active-pa-system.html"]http://www.theaudiow...-pa-system.html[/url] I will sell the rig on its own for £1000 but will not sell the desk separately. Trade Barefaced FR800, RCF 735 / 745 Collection from Blackburn, Lancs, BB22SH and demo would be preferred but may be able to meet up.

40 years since The Clash release their first album!
itsmedunc replied to itsmedunc's topic in General Discussion
[quote name='ead' timestamp='1491514384' post='3273709'] I think that it the truth. In reality what to me sounded raw and energetic in the mid 70s sounds pretty tame nowadays. [/quote] Aye that's true. Many of the punk /new wave tracks are used on tv ads nowadays too. There's even one on at the moment that starts off the same as Fight Back by Discharge! -

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1491472796' post='3273260'] I'm not sure they are "still relevant today"? to those that have always liked them but I doubt many young people know who they are. Awaits the "my daughter loves them!" Comments, well they will if they've been bought up on them. [/quote] Lyrically, I meant really but after a load of beer I just got too excited! -
SOLD. Ibanez Promethean P5210 combo

[quote name='Ghost_Bass' timestamp='1491492715' post='3273495'] Before PM'ing you, is international shipping and trades for other high end bass gear out of the table? Cheers [/quote] International postage is possible but the buyer would have to pay all transaction fees. Every time I sell something overseas, the bank charges me £30 or so. A sale is needed really as I'm trying to fund some Barefaced PA Cabs. Thanks... -

A few conflicting dates online but anywhere between now and thre 8th will do. How good is that? 40 years ago and still relevant today! Truly an immense band!
