  1. If rickenbacker was a coffee shop. Apart from the quality thing
  2. That is exactly how I read it, and was imagining a coffee shop with everyone with the red flower pot hats. It was better in my mind than the pictures Roast it, roast it good!
  3. Could go for an SR5 neck, on the basis that I could just find a body to attach it to easily.
  4. No, because you have just added a load of additional latency.
  5. Spare is handy - At the last gig my transmitter was dead (left it switched on in the bag). Plugged it after the second song when I realised, left it charging for a few songs, then used it, lasted the first half then plugged it in at the break!
  6. Just to add a data point, I have a BAM200, TC450, Ashdown Evo VI 600 and Bugera V1000, and I use the BAM200 almost exclusively for gigs and practices now, along with a Gnome 10" speaker.
  7. Its the 'Content I started' here
  8. Activity -> Content I started. Seems pretty easy?
  9. Yes, its a district of Liverpool.
  10. Looks good. I have recently gone to using my MS-1, its nice step up to have stereo after my XVive. Its a good idea having the two recievers although that means that you need people who want the same mix.
  11. I look at it and go 'Holy cr*p, how much???' Seems a reasonable rating system to me! So good case in point. A canadian dingwall considering the work put in and the wages required etc, yes its expensive but not excessively so. But the new indonesian dingwalls, yes, way overpriced, considering the costs to make those and indonesian average wages.
  12. I would hope they had worked that bit out quite early!
  13. Not sure i would - I played my ibanez fretless at one gig and when I listened to the recording back my intonation was not the greatest!
  14. I absolutely couldn't get any kind of anger or indignation about the expense either (and I am not sure why when someone says 'thats a lot of money' someone allways comes along and marks it as anger?) and I don't judge people on what they buy (well, I actually do, but no more than everyone else), but that doesn't stop it being overpriced for what it is. But I guess this is the thread for it.
  15. So I guess they haven't really found anything if they have already given you a catscan but now want to give you an MRI?
  16. I love how these adverts say: "Rosetti (Egmond) Guitars, were the very first guitars of John Lennon, George Harrison, Keith Richards, Brian May, Rory Gallagher and Paul McCartney" without adding the 'Until they got enough money to be able to get something else, and then they never went back!"
  17. Well, he got peoples attention but he isn't selling anything!
  18. Well, that isn't hard, we do that on that song, just comes from the mixer. Just less appealing to look at.
  19. The £3799 isn't a relic'd one, it is just the right style of bass* But I mean the 6k one, they say it is an exact copy of his bass, and also that it is hand signed. Which makes me wonder why he signed his own bass? thats weird! * not that I am not saying that paying almost 4k for a machine CNC'd bass that doesn't even have any frets is a crazy amount of money to pay!
  20. No argument there, honestly on most gigs people really cant tell what bass you are using. A playable bass isn't a price item, I am happy to play my OLP or my Shuker or my Ibanez - hugely different price points. over christmas I played my Aliexpress acrylic bass, its not as nice to play as it is really heavy and the pickups aren't great, but it plays and it lights up with LEDs and people notice that much more than the sound! I buy the expensive basses for me, because I like them but if I didn't care about that, there is no gig I couldn't have done without a sub £200 bass and a sub £200 amplifier / speaker.
  21. Who knows what it was when it started!
  22. Mines the opposite to that. I can play whatever bass, although I don't enjoy it if the string spacing is wide or if it has bits that dig in, or its too heavy, or there is some random piece of metal where I want to put my hand. However, if I am gigging, because I am also singing and playing keys with my feet, if the string spacing is wide, i WILL mess it up, because I don't have my attention on playing as I would have at home. For the same reason, I won't bother with a non 5 string, because I don't want to have to change basses when I am playing live, though obviously at home it doesn't make any difference
  23. Good plan, then I can buy it off you a few months later!
  24. Our singer is a great frontman. He is a much better frontman than he is a singer, I have been in groups with better singers, but never been in a group with a better frontman, so I prefer this!
