[quote name='Doddy' post='1232969' date='May 16 2011, 12:55 PM']I think the audience reaction was more about 'Oh look,Brian Wilson is singing Good Vibrations' rather than 'Wow,Brian Wilson is good'. He's got to be playing on his reputation,because he was awful on 'Later....'. I think he needed a drummer too. Arctic Monkeys are perpetually rubbish and I don't know what to say about that immensely bad girl band.[/quote] Definitely agree with the 1st point, but I must say, the Arctic Monkeys have actually come quite a long way, and arent too worried about experimenting a little. Ive actually started to respect them now theyve changed and had some time recording with Josh Homme. The girl band Warpaint were the highlight for me, haha, as mentioned above. It was very post-rock/ambient with very little variation on the guitar work, but thats probably what made the vocals work so well.

Yes, Brian Wilson was a disappointment. Poor harmonies...something just sounded really 'off'.

TWO AE212s?!

Odd that they wouls slate you for liking something as original as Warpaint. People are strange arent they!

Very tempted for the 2x10 combo...seriously good prices!

I usually go for rosewood, but a good maple board is a good board! I have a new 3EQ Ray and the board/neck is lovely...maple with hints of birdseye and flame figuring.

Really enjoyed Warpaint this week. Really different and original, almost shoe-gaze/art rock type indie. Im going to have a listen to their album and EP.

Thanks, sounds good!

Off topic but how did your combo work out for the gig?

I ordered one just before the hike but they are awaiting stock. I'm glad that for once I had some luck! All the Fender stores have the same price...unfortunately. Give Darren a call, I'm sure he can do a deal for you.

Glad its sorted WH....

You must be really close to where I am Rich...although I think you were before. Hope all is well.

This thread makes me want a PJ combo. Argh

Are there any nice pics/video reviews of this amp?

What is the waiting time roughly on a Dingwall PJ?

I must admit im tempted...

Definitely heed the advice on Markbass gain, stick underneath the light flashing...the amp 'clipping' is not nice on these amps. Genz and TC are a little different, as in some gain pushing is ok, but Markbass is a little different.

I think the culprit is either the gain not being set as high as it could be, the Dingwall not putting out enough, but more than likely the 1x12 cabinet is not enough for the gig. I wouldnt think the 1x15 plus 1x12 should need more volume, and if it does, something isnt right. I am thinking of using a 1x12, but its for an acoustic/bass/drums trio, not a heavy rock band. Hope you get it sorted!

PMT have the worst site going...without a doubt. Have you received their mailouts?! Usually a total mess.
