[quote name='thepurpleblob' date='Aug 1 2008, 10:09 AM' post='252534'] Don't buy Planet Waves cables. Those expanding bits on the jack break your input sockets eventually!! Too true.Our guitarist uses one and one night,when he was tuning up,his tuner captured the jack plug and point blank refused to let it go.We actually ended up smashing the tuner to bits,and even then,had to use a screwdriver to prise the jack plug from the tuners jack socket.Bloody Planet Waves!

Glad everythings OK Sean.Now repeat after me."I must be more careful"

It could well be just a fuse.Check that first and then if it's not that,well then..........There should be a fuse holder on the back of the amp somewhere.Oh,and remember to change the voltage selector to the correct settting,in case you do the same thing again.Good luck!

Nice job mate! Its amazing what a bit of elbow grease and dedication can do.She is looking good!

Just got a few free stereo patch leads of Andy.Nice guy to deal with.

Just watched the Eric Clapton Crossroads concert.Tal Wilkenfeld was on with Jeff Beck.I know, I know its an old clip,but I've only ever seen it on You Tube before,on a laptop as well! She can play,but she looked about 12 on that clip.

[quote name='Chop' post='56976' date='Sep 7 2007, 02:12 PM']Erm... don't think anyones gone for Charley Charles and Norman Watt-Roy.....Has anyone ever seen a tighter band than The Blockheads in full flow? +1 for Sly & Robbie[/quote] +1 For Norman and Charley in the Blockheads,but I've heard Norman with Steve Monti in Wilko Johnston's band.Just as tight!

Just bought a Power Bank from Terry.A quick and courteous transaction.Cheers again mate

BRUNGED??? Honestly,I've never heard the like!! it's BRINGDED!Look what the postman BRINGDED me!

That's her!Thats the one.Thanx guys.

Thats very similar,except that Norms had a Badass 2 and there wasn't so much 'literature' on the headstock.It was more like a circular motif.But thats an amazing replica,right down to the gouge by the bridge pup.must look for that thread.

I've just been watching Norman Watt-Roy live at the blues festival in Downpatrick N.Ireland.He had to deal with a decrepid Trace Elliot set up which was defo causing him grief.He was with Wilko Johnston and he played a storm.He definitely is a character on stage but my god,can he play bass!Unfortunately they had to cut the set short because the rains came and it was becoming slightly dodgy on stage.(Outdoor gig if you hadn't already guessed).One thing.His bass was the usual pinky bronzy coloured Jazz but the neck wasn't a Fender neck.The headstock had shades of SX about it.It had a logo which I couldn't make out from where I was.Anybody shed a light?

Much as I can't be bothered with Winehouse and all the palaver about the "troubled" singer,4 years ago,when this was made,she actually looked quite presentable.Her hair was normal,she didn't have the weird eye makeup that she wears now,and most of all,she looked healthy.What is that you have to do to become "troubled"?You know,like Docherty,and Spears and the rest? Paul Rodgers has a fine voice,but why does he have to have the audience sing the chorus of every song he does,over and over again,on their own? Rant over.

Just watched Pino play his little heart out for nigh on 2 and a half hours.What a bassist!He handled all that was thrown at him with ease.I just thought that his wee head was going to fall off a coupla times.Good concert tho'.At the end I counted 19 Strats all going at once.Only one man missing.Mr Clapton. And so to bed...............

I had this same problem on a Gibson Ripper copy - fortunately the bridge made it possible to string it normally. It does look a bit like it's got a 4-string set plus a single guitar string, though.

Google RB23110 and you'll find that the power supply is built in,or 'on board'.Its 9v at 300 Ma.Should be OK.

Just bought a nice footswitch from Oli.Nice guy to deal with.Happy with purchase.

Right,let me get this right.A power supply has to be able to cater for all the pedals being used with it.In my case thats 1@300ma,1@50ma and another 3 @40ma.Thats 470ma altogether.Bearing in mind that I probably wouldn't be using ALL the pedals at the same time,then a 450 Sound Labs unit would suffice(available for around £25 on the Bay)On the other hand,would something in the 1 amp range be better,in order to have some leeway.I've seen a unit which has 10 outputs,at 1 amp,but which says in the blurb that each output is rated at 100ma.See,this is where I'm confused.At 100ma per output,this would be no use for the Zoom,which needs 300ma.But then I think to myself,is it an overall figure of 1 amp,which would be more than adequate for all the pedals.You know,I'm actually starting to confuse myself now.If anyone can make sense of my inane ramblings please tell me is a 1 amp unit good for what I need?

Right Bod.The whole point is to try and do away with all these power supplies.What about the likes of Pedal Power type units for example?They rate at a total of 450 Ma.With the zoom @300,and the other 4 pedals at 30 - 40 each,would one of that type suffice?I'm not tight with money,but the rest of my rig is budget based,so I'm not going to spend big bucks as you've probably already gathered,but I just want something that is compact,and works,and gets rid of the hum!I'm watching a Pedal Power 450 on the Bay at the mo.What do you think?
