  1. I played through a 126 combo last night. It was plenty loud and had a really solid sound, with all the eq flat and the volume on about 2. It was a backline amp provided by the venue, glad I didn't have to lug it up the stairs!
  2. Basement studios in Watford had one in every room, and later the black panelled ones without the back-light. Cool workhorse amps. I think I replaced a 2n3055 transistor in one for them when I used to work a couple of units away on the same road. When this HH stuff first came out, the e-l back-light was THE coolest thing!
  3. Pic would make a good album cover for my band, Charms Against the Evil Eye...
  4. Anyone use these for overheads on drums? I'm looking at a matched pair as mine (Red5) have a slightly different response, both level and tone. Subtle but noticeable.
  5. Shouldn't these posts be in the Share My Music subforum?
  6. Me too! Good job it isn't a 4 string. BTW, shouldn't the description be Mensinger? It's what it says on the head...
  7. A bit like the old S G Nanyo Bass Collection 5ers ?
  8. Was your win carried over from November? I lose track of these things...
  9. Looks cool, I nearly bought one of these years ago. What sw does it actually come with?
  10. Voted. It's very even this year!
  11. Audeze, nice Christmas present. I assume they're noticeably "better" than everything else you had?
  12. For live, will mostly be using a dynamic mic, I suspect
  13. Difficult choices ahead, requires further listening.
  14. My guitarist uses one of these, it's a nice sounding guitar for relatively little money. This is in far better condition, the thin finish gives a very open sound, but he's a heavy handed nurk and has worn the finish round the sound hole to smithereens...
  15. Entry for the Basschat December 2022 cover song challenge. As suggested by my friend Rob for an occasional get-together we have with another school friend Paul (we used to jam together and did a couple of gigs). The parts were subsequently recorded remotely, and mixed by me. Rob did the main vocals and 3 backing vocals, Paul provided the Rhodes, grand piano and Hammond tracks and I did the bass (Mustang) acoustic parlour guitar, drums and the main backing vocals. Gear: Mustang p-j bass, Gretsch Renown drums, Art and Lutherie Ami parlour guitar with old strings, Eggz shaker! Recorded in Reaper using stock plugs
  16. I'm working on one, roping in a couple of old friends for some remote collaboration. Hope my piano player comes through, he likes the song, but has limited time as he's writing a musical on commission ....
  17. Just saw a Hayman being used on the 1974 Cleo Laine show on the beeb right now Saturday 22.10
  18. Very nice work on both. I like the lower horn on the first with the upper horn on the second. Both look very tactile though!
  19. Late to the party, but how about glueing a thin fingerboard on whilst under string tension and clamping it at the exact relief you require, say, using a metal straight edge, g-clamps small and large, and blocks . Difficult to explain without a picture, and it's bedtime!
  20. Sounds about right! Thanks for straightening that out.
  21. @NickD thanks for your input. I suspect the NS has a better basic sound (transducer etc) to start with. The hi-z input thing might be worth checking, although the buffered output of the Stagg preamp shouldn't need it, it may still sound better.
