My experience is that people overplay through boredom. Playing the same set every weekend for years on end drains you. But, i find that overplaying on bass or drums can work as long as the players are topnotch. Aslong as the groove and bottom end are still there then really it doesnt matter a great deal. Guitarists that get bored and widdle over everything really destroys the dynamics of the tune, so they get my vote. The pricks.

I'm really swithering over getting this or the valeton gp-5. I'm the same, i need pretty much eactly what you're using this for. My HXstomp is briliant and not exactly bulky but a tonex would pretty much make it a softcase load in which id love. What is the thing the tonex is mounted on. Also, is it powered by the usb cable and is that how you use it live?

alrighty! some cool idea in there. not really something id listen to but i appreciate what youre doing. production wise, it definately has a home recording sound to it, but so does everything i do so can't really provide any worthwhile feedback! the snare and kick sound un-centred though, that might be an artistic choice but it reduces the root impact.

i had an imported one in candy apple red for years. Great bass!

I'm 43, 6"2 and in decent shape, but I'm gubbed the morning after a gig! Dont expect it to get easier.

my first proper amp was a carslbro. not this combo but a bigger greener one. It was loud but so lifeless. Probably the worst amp I've owned.

the cost of building a pedal board from scratch mounts up very very quickly. I could only see it being a sensible option if you already had some pedals, and/or theres certain pedals you need that the multiFX just dont cover. Otherwise, a multiFX is the obvious choice in my view! The zoom stuff is greaet. I've gigged it for years although latterly I'vemoved onto a HX stomp. But, I've happily used the ms60b for the occasional gig recently when ive loaned my stomp to another band member for the set. I also dont use alot of effects, so thems60b does a grand job. It is limited though obviously. I'd 100% recommend the b3 and b3m, or even the old b9.1ut if you can find one cheap! gigged them all over the years with zero issues! the Latter has a weird 2 way control pedal that you can get quite creative with!

This seems almost too good to be true. ive registered, and just waiting for the email. Thanks for sharing!

Most of my gigs are deps these days. I wouldn't learn 30 tunes for 80 quid!

Sounds like none of you are pals so I'd just walk if I were you. even if you did sort things out, sounds like they didnt want you to be involved so who really wins. Sounds like the drummer just found people into the same things he wants and they all agreed.

Other amps I'd played at the time. My own ears decided whether it sounded rubbish or not, back in the day we could make our own mind up based on experience, we didn't need to wait until someone told us our opinion. Aye i know this is a 5 year old post but i dont think i replied!

I'll be honest... if you really need a basic and loud amp these days, i dont think you can go wrong with anything! You could get a trace elliot 1x15 combo for £100, anything ashdown will do the job. Peaveys will do it too. As you say, weight isn't a problem therefore the amps all the guys want rid of now are on the market and are dirt cheap.

Although my main setup is a stomp, I've always used zoom stuff and if i had to go back to my zoom ms60b i would be fine with it! I bet the B6 will be brill!

Another vote for a 2nd hand harley benton! Matter of biding your time and eventually one will come up!
