  1. What? How? Lol!
  2. Yeah that looks pretty tasty actually! I think for me it has to be the 'right' tort. Too orangey our light red doesn't look good to me. I do like the dark brown and the red you have. Especially that satin/worn look rather than brand new and shiny! Now, where's my spare plate gone I can try out again heh!

    Line 6 Helix.

    Having owned (much like many other BCers) a wide range of line 6 models right from the original Red Bean, I wholeheartedly agree Helix is a huge step forward. A great piece of kit!
  4. Not that helpful, but I try to keep them wiped down in between performances or, in between songs if it's a particular 'hot' evening. When they sound dull, I ditch them! I suppose there's the option of coated strings to extend tonal life. I should give those a go again as I've been gigging so much recently, the strings are naturally getting used way more.

    Line 6 Helix.

    Thank you! You mention parallel paths above. Does this mean that you can have either multiple parallel paths in your signal chain, or have multiple effects in a parallel path?

    Line 6 Helix.

    Thing is, with HX, I really want to understand the signal path better verses the Full Fat version so I can see how well it would integrate in to what I am doing at the moment.

    Line 6 Helix.

    It was £425 when I looked this am and I've not been to the GG page before. Hmmm.. I really don't need an HX....

      Hahahahaha!

      Smileys and emojis are reminiscent of school when girls used to put little love hearts over their "i"s instead of dots.  They're meaningless to people like me.

      The internet probably isn't the best place to hang out if Smileys, Emoji's and digital aren't your thing. 🤣

  9. I have this album on vinyl! I found it as a teen and, well.. I keep it very safe, all wrapped up! A prized album for me.
  10. No, I know. The Gibson vs Ibanez headstock suit was in ‘77 and although I don’t think they settled in court, it was certainly another entry that adds to the “Law Suit Era” story.
  11. ‘Law Suit Era’. Better?? 😂
  12. The Nexus Tube head I recall was superb! Heavy, just like an SVT II or Mesa 400, but easily as lovely sounding! I also really liked the SL and SLS amplifiers and combos which have a pleasing tone and some clever features on board. 👍
  13. https://www.rcf.it/en_US/products/product-detail/nx-45-a/291491 RCF 745 in a less ugly box. I suspect the answer is no, but is there even the remotest chance that anyone has actually tried one? Literally zero video reviews!
  14. Would love to go to that.. sadly I wasn't aware of it.
  15. Sure, ok! For some reason I couldn't seem to get a sharp image on my profile picture.
  16. Me either! Just brilliant.
  17. That's odd. - I thought that would be big news. There seems to be an absence of a certain ornithological piece. A headline regarding mass awareness of a certain avian variety....

  19. Here's my response to another post: Try both and tell them I sent you.
  20. The Bird, Is the word..
  21. I was once asked to join a band with Danny Filth. I have the original demos on my computer still.
  22. How about installing EMG J pickups which have the same output level? Or you could buy a cheap EQ pedal to step in when you play the J bass. The beauty of which is that you can add some extra boost on those important MWAAAHHHHHH frequencies using an EQ pedal!
  23. I use that as a demonstration when I am teaching to level the playing field when my students are struggling and they think that I don’t understand what it feels like to be a beginner. It always ends in lots of laughter and me looking like a right plum!
  24. We’ll get in trouble for continuing that conversation lol lol... but in short, yes all of those things
  25. Actually I agree. Stick some decent cans on and you can hear modulation on the bass tone. At first, I thought it was Derek on keys playing in unison. He’s tighter than a tight thing playing and uses lots of mods on his keys tones... but if you listen to the bass notes at the very end there’s definitely a flange like effect going on in there. Interestingly I think I have the same on my Helix for one of the songs in one of my band sets.
