  1. I have one, it rocks. Just buy it.....simples
  2. Nice bass, tempting too as I've flirted with joining the VOC before. The grub screw on the bridge looks like it's about to fall out - on the D string saddle?
  3. This post cannot be displayed because it is in a forum which requires at least 1 post to view.
  4. @Leonard Smalls is in your neck of the woods. I'm from Ludlow originally, but now live in sunny Nottingham (today it is anyway) ...and welcome
  5. I use GHS pressurewounds and feel they are an excellent compromise between roundwounds and flats
  6. Now Sold, mods please lock Fender Rumble 100 v3 with cover Spanking little amp which is lighter than an Angel's fart and loud enough for small pub gigs. Be quick before I bung it on evilbay Can ship for around £25 or less, or do a meetup within reasonable distance of Nottingham
  7. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334671700566?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=-zSiRllyRUy&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=_IZf9qi7SWa&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
  8. If I see any ad on any platform with HMU in the text, I exit stage left.
  9. Joyo Orange Juice SOLD In original box Postage/courier £5
  10. I found my previous tribute band through JMB so it does work. I have just recruited a singer for my current outfit via Bandmix, although you have to pay to message people. I got half a dozen replies from approaching about 10 possibles.
  11. I've used www.thefretboard.co.uk for geeta stuff just as a HU for you
  12. Yeah, me too. Just splurged on a new rig so passed on this
  13. My best gig in a long and fairly average musical career was playing Rock City in Nottingham with my Bowie Tribute band. This was January 2022 for a charity gig so not paid, but to be honest I'd have paid them. It actually surpassed all our expectations because - there was a stage manager (in a very sharp suit) to receive all the bands at the stage door entrance - we had our own dressing room, complete with toilet and shower, with our band name on the door - there were roadies/stage hands to carry your guitar onto the stage (we were using their drums and backline) - there was a 32 channel monitor mixer at stage right - that's right, just for monitors (us pub players are just not used to such luxury) - the light show was awesome - there was a decent crowd in who loved it and we played as well as we ever have - the head stage hand said..."you guys were very good" afterwards - we were the only tribute band on the bill, we played right before these guys https://cosmicskull.org/ - Bowie played there, on that very stage in 1997 (goosebumps) The only downside was we only had 30 minutes Thanks @Bluewine for posting this thread, it's allowed me to relive a cherished memory. The sadness is that the band has now broken up so no chance of a repeat performance 😢
  14. Welcome @Gary C I'm a Shropshire lad too, as is @Leonard Smalls although I'm in Nottingham now Which bit of Shropshire are you in?
  15. I can see you've given this considerable thought and planning 😊
