  1. Interesting concept, but jeeeeeeeeeeez, what string height does one need to have on the fretted instrument to be able to slide that thing under them ?
  2. It appears to be Damien Pew playing that bass but there's precious little info on the band itself, let alone Pew 7 Teen was released in '79. They had another single released in '80 called See You Later
  3. Righto, well i definately have sound now, where i didnt before 👍👍 Using Pre + Mic then Pre + Line - too quiet as you foretold. All ok apart from the Volume Using Post + Mic, ok. Using Post + Line, loud buzzing. This is with all EQ set flat, ( apart from Freq knobs ), and bringing gain up while Channel Vol at 1.00 With bass plugged in the GB, but not played, the buzzing gets louder if i turn up either CH 1 Gain or Ch 1 Vol ..or both Sound file attached. You can hear the open E initially + buzzing. The buzzing appears to get a tad louder, but its just the bass note fading making it seem louder buzzmp3.mp3
  4. Thanks, I'll go through that procedure , but i have already tested the XLR cable, and the monitor. The monitor has no line/mic switch. They're both ok.
  5. Likewise Peace of mind takes seconds. I also carry a cable tester.
  6. Oh dear I tried D.I. ing the Max into a powered wedge monitor ( its what i have at home right now ) .. merely just to check the D.I., and i get zip. Zilch. Nada. Tried Post/Pre both ways, Mic/Line both ways. Silence Checked cables, checked the Wedgie, they're all good. Nurse ! help..
  7. Got a fabulous bassline, both verse and chorus. I'm the only band member that has it completely sorted, but its early days
  8. TBH, a lot of business sellers say that. There's loads on Ebay. It doesn't have legs though. All are subject to UK consumer law.
  9. Her sovereignty Lady bag once said to me after i showed her a new bass " you should have got one faster in pink "
  10. Indeed .. POH
  11. Now free postage
  12. Agreed - mine stays home, even though it's just the paltry 300 SMX 1x15 combo. And it's on castors, just for wheeling about my home. Fack carrying it.
  13. Did you ever read how the Tubes got their name ? John Waldo 'Fee' Waybill gave out this info in an interview They had been called 'The Beans' but had to change it due to another band who were already using it. The members all wrote down names, and put them in a bowl, but they let Prairie's dog Sandwich pick out the winner. Some sneaky git smeared mayonnaise on his choice, so Sandwich went straight for it. Fee didnt say who cheated with the mayo, but the name was Tubes Rods and Bulbs ( parts of the eye ) They didnt want people to shorten it to TRB so they went with just Tubes
  14. Or Monique
  15. No Rickenbacker ? Well done
  16. So glad i got to see them in their heyday and original lineup, rather than when members started to leave. I know bassist Anderson and singer Re Styles have both gone, sad in itself, but very sad about Welnick committing suicide
  17. Some people have all the luck
  18. Awesome! I saw them live in the late 70's early 80's ( damn those jazz fags ) i cant remember exactly. PP is an outstanding tubbist, in fact the whole band were something else. Very theatrical and incredible songs. I still have 4 of their CD's
  19. Waful spelling
  20. I was thinking of the Epic, so i found
  21. I know you're trying to be hilarious, but Action Man was designed with a gender, like Barbie dolls. A guitar wasnt
  22. It depends on what language you are speaking. In Welsh and French, for example, all objects are gendered. English's supposedly lost this with Middle English, but in practice it's hung on and been influenced by languages like French. ------------------------------------------------------ Yes i agree - possibly Italian has this too ?
  23. The 204 CST and both the 304's for me. I'm trying to think what the 304 reminds me of, ...maybe an Alembic-ish shape
  24. Silly and ultra cheesy. Calling a lump of wood or a car ' her ' Why not 'him ' ? Actually, either is as sad as the other. Inanimate objects don't have a gender.
