Boss are loads of peoples favourites. When they came in in the late 70s, early 80s there was pretty well nothing to touch them and they remained that way for a long time. They came up with the standards for many effects and kind of defined both the size of effects and the controls we expected of them. And even the colours we expected effects to be! I think they are still the reference for what effects are supposed to sound like.

Well, better than last night, very little of the same problems of yesterday, but god was it hot! Luckily the club had some fans, but even so it was like a sauna. Not as well attended as some have been there, but for some reason the setup was easier, and I think we seemed to play much better. There were a couple of songs, Learn to fly, the singer decided to do the end part before the end which caused us an issue, and a few other fluffs, but nothing as major as that. At half time we found the guitarist that we had last year came to see us which was good to see him. I played the ric tonight, as I did last night, I really do like that bass live, apart from seven nation army, that is a bit shit for. Everything else it is great. Certainly going to feel it tomorrow though. And black Solovair boots, the broken ones. Oh I took the <£10 laser too..

I tried the tonex one last night, but tried it after my dwarf (with an amp simulator) into an amp. It was a great sound but a bit too much for what I wanted. On its own it would be great. I am still tempted to make a small pedalboard, with a tonex one as the amp, and a va5 as the effects, and maybe a synth box. Only problem is that ultimately that doesn't give me anything that the ME90B does, which I use in practices now.

Haha, editing error! the singer had a sure wireless system for his sax, which always clicks and pops. After the last gig he gave it to a sound engineering guy to see what was wrong with it but forgot to pick it up so he had to use a sax mic on a stand!

I have had that with every zoom effects pedal since the B3

Went down to a local cricket club last night, we played it recently on a sunday afternoon, but this was an evening one. Couldn't start until 9 as they had some event ceremony. Its an odd layout as we can setup to face into the field or setup to face into the club - we compromised on a diagonal so we could do either as necessary, As it was we stayed doing the front - it was a nice night and people were ok outside. Sound sounded a bit weird but hard to get right in these places - the singer had to use a sax for his micophone as the transmitter was away being investigated for noise and he forgot tot pick it up. Played for the usual 1:15 first set, and then the drummer and guitarist decided to investigate what time their curfew was as we were effectively outside and there were houses around. Came back with 11, so no point having a big break, so we went back on. I was showing the guitarist the EQ as he was wondering about it, and realised I had put my vocal and bass in the wrong socket, so a few songs must have sounded weird! Really short second half and rushed through a few songs, all went down really well, it was getting crowded towards the end, as people were now half in and out. Kind of glad it stopped when it did. Unfortunately though it seems that for some reason in the last 2-3 months, our drummer has swung wildly right wing (where he never really seemed bothered about politics before), so just spent all the non playing time ranting about muslims. Hoping it is a phase, I can ignore so much, but this is so OTT, if it carries on then it would get rid of my interest in playing

No, there haven't been any updates to the site in the last month or so, and I haven't had to log in any more than usual. Sounds like your browser has updated though or you have some software that is blocking cookies or something.

As long as you check what the final price will be on what you pay, you can get some unusual thing. Probably not worth it for an old fender or gibson, but for other less trendy brands you can find good stuff.

G&L L2500s are about the easiest G&Ls to get. I have had one, when I was looking for an M2500 (which are very uncommon)

Oh that seems worth it - I did say I wasn't getting any more lights but that will fill in a space

Link removed. Most genuine news stories don't need to break up 'full story' or 'watch video' unless they are trying to evade spam detections. and the only places I can see on the net with that story point back to that same place, often with AI images and no details.

Its from men I trust, and from info he has posted, when recording he goes straight into the desk without an amp.

IEMs are great for that too - we have a normal guitar amp and a normal drum kit, I have in ears which does both the protection and the monitoring. I hear them (they are in the mix too), but I hear me louder. It is so good to be able to hear the nuances of what you are playing one the bass (although scary when you first start) loud and clearly.

Its a bit crazy that there isn't much between the £50-300 ranges!

Or at least one of them

Yeh, I know what you are thinking, a pigeon? where is the other one. Well, at that moment he was out in the hallways, but now he is back on his clock stand where he belongs. I still don't have a camera, but in general it looks like this:

My desk is its normal state of messy, although it also has a pigeon on it at the moment, but I don't have a camera!

£10- not very micro!

Not quite seeing it - if you want a multi effect there are plenty that size, or if you want an optional single effect that you can pick from a large amount, there are plenty of options for that, that isn't this, don't want too many options, there are a lot of far cheaper ones that don't need a phone to set up. And almost all cheaper and not needing to buy the 17th onward effect. Their selling point here is 'We know everyone else has already done it, but we are boss'.

An outdoor 1 hour gig in the afternoon sun with a PA designed for the job that someone else set up less than an hour from home. Or a normal pub gig but starting at 7 instead of 9 with a responsive crowd

Not in an irrational predjudices thread it isn't!

Well, I had 10 GU10 50W light bulbs in my kitchen. i replaced them for LEDs, so now it is 25W instead of 0.5kW of lights. Looking on the net, it says the Gigbar 2 is 6x 3.5W Quad-colour LEDs + Strobe: 4x 1.8W Dual-colour LEDs plus 6x 6W LEDs. So that would be 60W if they were all on at the same time (ie, all on bright white and not cycling colours). Yes, but it is complicated and you would need to know what your duty cycle of your amp use is. I mean if you are playing a thrash song with bass / drums / vocals in the PA, you would use a lot more power than if you are were playing 7 nation army for instance, which is 80% gap. Next time you have a gig measure it, and then you will know for the following sale!

That is power put to the speaker, if they were running flat out with a constant signal. so the only way that would be the source is if your system was 100% efficient which is impossible. You are putting far less power out in volume, but using more input than a 1:1 to input power to output power. Seems a lot - how many liights do you have? ok, that is a better way of working it out, so about 800W for that?
