  1. SIT Silencers - they feel like a chrome, though not quite as smooth, but near as dammit They give a tad more bite than chromes, which is why i use them on my fretless.
  2. One of these. 150kg and under £20 and they fold almost flat. They take up less room than a folding upright sack truck type Best £19 ever spent http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-FLAT-PLATFORM-TROLLEY-WHEELED-SACK-TRUCK-CART-PALLET-FOLDING-HANDLE-150KG-/171938986722?hash=item28085cbae2:g:D0AAAOSwPc9W2A3p
  3. RB40's on my fretteds and SIT Silencers on the fretless I'm happy enough, especially since i snagged 3 sets of RB40's for £7 a pack. Never seen them at that prce before that or since then. Shame
  4. 2 ? 45 mins a set and 2 sets for us
  5. Fool, along with Ain't No Love and Come On, are all in our set list, and rather than try to copy Neil's sweet fretwork, i stick to the basics and use my own fills. We're not a concours tribute act, so the accuracy is not important, as long as the fundamental riff is there. The fluff on top, is Neil's own icing on the cake, and isn't truly necessary IMO PS. Come on and Ain't No Love are so much easier , but i'd bet one of Neil's basses ( you listening Neil ? ) my lines, even for those, are not truly accurate And i may have just won one of Neil's basses
  6. Those gusses are unique, i have to say. I'd even play one, but i wouldnt pay for it. If i had the money to buy a Fodera , i still wouldn't. I'd take my cash to ACG and get him to build me a one off fretted and matching fretless, and still have enough sheckles left to buy a forest of sustainable cocobolo ( love that wood ) Still, everyone to their own..makes the world go round, guv
  7. There are some things we might do on the hoof, but only if we have to. We dropped a track at last saturdays gig, cos the voxist's larynx was giving up ( had a throat infection a few weeks before and was only just about recovered ) and had to throw in a backup , but i guess most of us have standbys for such occasions, so no real trauma
  8. 8 I bought 3 sets of these on eebuygumbay at a price that i havent seen repeated again. They seem to be hovering around the £13 area, but i grabbed 3 packs @ £7 per pack. Must have been some kinda clearout. Never saw them again [IMG]http://i64.tinypic.com/8yxnig.jpg[/IMG] http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rotosound-Roto-Bass-Yellow-4-String-Set-RB-40-40-60-80-100-Made-in-the-UK-/231454896878?hash=item35e3c972ee:g:9GIAAOSw1vlUuQ7u
  9. [quote name='neepheid' timestamp='1457269125' post='2996847'] This would do my nut in. [/quote] And mine We work off of a set list. Only 2 slow numbers, one each set. We dont gauge audiences either - they get what we give 'em
  10. There's nothing more frustrating than starting a band from scratch. Its partly why i've been in the same band for the last 7 years , but if we folded, i'd just look for one that was established already and simply looking for bassister
  11. Going OT so will pm you Paul
  12. Kapowwww ! Hmphhhhpppt !!
  13. Ha - Banbury bloke ! We gigged the Reindeer last month, and will be at the Dolphin next month ( sort of close to Banbury ) But yep, thats a ballpark rate but there may be variations , depending
  14. Wished that had come up in my google searches http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Artec-CPB-12-Multi-Power-Supply-Power-up-to-12-guitar-pedals-at-once-CPB12-/391244862919?hash=item5b1802d5c7:m:mposrpICI6twLDQURFWsSRw I bought the Innogear in the end, so will use a splitter
  15. Pubs seem to pay around the £250 mark ... at least ours do in Oxfordshire. Sometimes a bit cheaper, sometimes but not very often, a bit more
  16. Noted mate - cheers Ordered a splitter and a coupler - job done
  17. hah ! Honk Kong ..2 for 0.99p
  18. [quote name='EBS_freak' timestamp='1457352250' post='2997560'] Get a standard male/female splitter set up... and one of these, a male/male coupler. That'll be the one ! Where did you find that EBS ? [/quote]
  19. Small joke from me.. ear plugs are worth every penny
  20. Read audio ... [b] R303[/b] Initial payment : £200.00 Followed by 11 monthly payments of £54.55 I could buy a new set of ears for that
  21. [quote name='sykilz' timestamp='1457284345' post='2997031'] I wear substantial ear plugs so don't get the actual sound anyway as we're far too loud for me [/quote] From another Essex chap no less ! This is a copy of us. Its our Les Paul wielding maniac that cant seem to turn down. I wear ear plugs mostly because of him, but i've had problems from the cymbals before now making my right ear go fuzz fuzz, as i stand right next to the tubbist So , between the LP maniac and the Tubbist - i'm between a rock and a hard place We did manage a sound check at last nights gig, but we dont always get one
  22. So, the police didnt even come round to check the pick axe for finger prints .. why not ? Budget cuts ? A few years back i had my van broken into - not much to take, but they got away with some tools and other replaceables. Called the feds but they weren't interested. They said it had been raining so there's no point. It wasn't raining inside my van says me. Fell on deaf ears
  23. I'm in the market for one of these too, but most of what i've found here have a female one and 2 males on the other. I need male to two males
  24. This is the TGI http://www.guitar.co.uk/tgi-tgipb1-power-box-micro-power-supply?gclid=CKzv-bDmrMsCFQUq0wodjgwJ8g
  25. This is the Nordell http://www.amazon.co.uk/Nordell-Isolated-Output-Supply-Effects/dp/B00Q8V2IH8
