Rollin Thunder

i’m using the old calendar 😉

Think its one of those love or hate colour choices, wasn’t sure myself but luckily love it in the flesh.

Grestch 250th anniversary special. Teated myself to a new 6 string, now i’m not much of a guitar player but i enjoy a Jam/fiddle around, but as my old Epiphone les Paul std as a few iffy parts that need replacing, saw this and thought take the plunge.

Adam was of course a Bass player, if any if you get chance listen to the demos in remastered KOTWF and Prince Charming, Just Adam in Bass and Marco in guitar with drum machine. as Huge as Adam (and the Ants) were at the time I think they are now underrated, maybe because They (Adam and Marco) went too Pop oriented and once the zeitgeist had gone were not taken seriously.

Another good starter preamp

Highly recommended, Real Tube two channels A clean B drive. In Parallel cold fusion hot fusion A drives B, gives you 4 sound options in the same setting. Been recently superseded by the Revolt but still some new out there and second hand

Love my Le Bass, can be a straight up preamp, clean or gritty amp in a box, subtle or out n out distortion, had many pre amps and this is the best.

I sold kev the bass, i told him about the battery which he has done which as fixed the volume problem, but he still says he is getting some line noise, told him to switch amp to active aa the Aquilar pre amp us powerful, but his amp inly as a passive input. I gad no issues with any nouse on the bass running into Helix stomp into Le bass pre amp into powered cab, i’m sure its a line input issue. Bought the bass from Andertons which is not too far for him so suggested he take it there and explain the problem and try it on a different amp. but it would be helpful if anyone on here can suggest what the noise issue is.

Might have yo get this, I’ve got the LeBass and its my main preamp, amp in a box pedal. The channel 1 clean channel is superb, i bought it for the dirt channel but hardly use that, although it is great, like it clean or on Hot fusion with a bit of grit from channel 2 this looks like it expands on that.

Was expecting cliched cheesy c**p decided to give it a whirl, really enjoyed it, certainly Lydon is played as the fool at first, but comes out pretty good by the end. its well worth the watch.

I’m fancying this. Mainly as Helix seem to pretty much stoped doing any Bass specific updates, seems like much more bass stuff on Boss model. Very tempted. But just finally booked a holiday.

Read an interview with Geezor a few weeks ago and allegedly a Head of doom pedal/ preamp comi g out soon. Anybody else heard this.

British Sea Power. Not sure any navel engagements where ever undertaken. And despite an edgy name, they are a bit lame, sound like “Colon” from the fast shows Indie club

I’m really digging the Saint, serious Gas, yes they are nir original design or reinventing the wheel but they sound great, quality components and Ashdowns own custom Pick ups.

Denon D-M41DAB Aux in no ground Turntable, which as a built in preamp which has a ground connector, but not used this as now hum or anything https://www.audio-technica.com/en-gb/turntables/best-for/step-up-models/at-lp120xusb

Shop still shut due to covid collection only, but they are really helpfull and have a good returns policy.

Its a made field (lol) if you are out of the game for a bit, I know my bass rig, amp, power amp/powered cab modeller preamp set up better than just plugging in a turntable to a hifi. Loving the new rig though, better than my old turntable into my old Philips Hifi.
