So... what about Warwick then? Is this German bass maker pronounced War-wick (US version) or Worrick (UK version)?
[/quote]

In ALL pronunciations the Americanism must be discounted......Just saying he he

I think with this being a UK forum that it's vitally important that we are jingoistic in our approach to anyone trying to 'adjust' the English language.....

;-)

If the studio equipment was at fault then they owe you an hour of studio time!

Judas Priest......now that's a different story

The English language has been bastardised by the American colonials......it is very much pronounced 'State-us'

This band the Unemployable Pothead Hobbyists sound great.....i'd watch them.

Hope the prognosis is a lot better for Wilko now.....this surgery could be ground breaking.

Such a character.....loved his Dr Feelgood stuff.

I remember seeing Anthrax, Testament, Metallica and Slayer at Hammersmith Odeon (as was) all around 1987.... i am now an old aged mosher :-$

In the day i always thought Anthrax were better tbh.....or Slayer really ;-)

They are used in railway modelling to simulate the hoses on locomotives.

Clearly if the word gets out that I know this fact I will have to hunt you down and kill you all

I'll get my anorak now....

Wow that really is a bombshell......lol

My confession is that i have rigged them up as a makeshift HAM radio aerial......

Yes i did just admit that i'm a radio HAM haha

Playing a 4004, very nice.

Looks like a Laredo to me (chrome hardware?) from the photos.
[/quote]

Yes chrome.....sound was gargantuan.....loved it!

Fair comment......but i might do it if i get bored ;-)

If i start gigging again i'll have to buy some new gear but that's not for the foreseeable....

You might replace the current 4Ohm speaker with a 8Ohm one, and then loop to the 8Ohm 210.
Or mount the combo's amp in the 210. Have fun with it
[/quote]

Hmmmm......maybe a plan there :-)

Thanks guys. It was just a home project to see if it could be done. I wouldn't gig with this its a tiny little combo and would be embarassing lol.

My old gigging rig (long ago sold) was a cabinet i had made for me loaded with two 15" Celestions with an ancient head which i think was Carlsbro.....

I'm not gigging at the mo but had this old speaker in the loft that i'd was going to try.....might pick up a cheapy head to try it.

Again thanks for the input :-)

Just had a look......loaded with a 4 ohm driver.

I'll check the impedance guys and let you know.....think it's 8 ohms so should be able to parallel out a 1/4" jack if it is to another 8 ohm.

Thanks gents.....i expected as much. Looking like i'll not get away with being a cheapskate and have to pick up another amp......but i tried lol

Okay tech types.....i have a combo i'm using which only has headphones out and line out with no fx loop. I also have an old 2x10 8 ohm impedance cab which i have retrieved from the loft (it nearly killed me).

I know i can't use the line out to power the cab but wondered if there's any way to hook them up?

Hoping there's something i can do to get this up and running.

Cheers......Paul

I have had good service in most of the Denmark St shops......i have used Rockstop for 25 years......

Joss sticks and B.O. I expect.

Aah.....that must've been it lol

It would be fair to say that there was an interesting aroma and a haze of smoke floating around the crowd.....can't think what it could have been.

Well i'm very chilled out watching bands at Guildford Cathedral for Wildlife Rocks.....lots of people here at one with nature and the earth and on top of that i got to see Brian May play with the Troggs.....Surreal!

Hawkwind on about 3.30.....

:-)

When all is said and done you will have a nice bass that you have a real attachment too because you put in the work and it was still a bargain :-)

I absolutely empathise with this.....since having an MRI on my neck for pain which showed up Spondolosis or Arthritis in Engish i have been undergoing lots of physio and rheumatology at the hospital.

Fact is that on top of normal wear and tear our chosen instruments are heavy old lumps of kit which doesn't help.

Hope you get everything sorted.
