  1. I'm in the process of altering my pedalboard setup. Since my last band ended, I no longer need to provide octave up to fill in between bass and violin so off goes the octaver. In its place, I'm getting a pedal tuner from a friend, so on goes a Korg Pitchblack Advance. A bit of fiddling around this evening proves to me that I really do just need a compressor, bass friendly chorus and preamp with a drive circuit. As such, my setup is now Pitchblack tuner - Wampler Mini Ego, EHX Bass Clone, MXR Carbon Copy Mini - Tech 21 VTBass DI. Okay, so I do occasionally have use for a delay. I did play around with settings and realised I was overdoing the rate of the chorus and pulled it back from 12 o'clock to around 7 o'clock but keeping the depth all the way up. Drive is at about 9 o'clock for my core tone but I do like to sound of the drive at full - not sure when I'd use that much though. Very minimalist setup but if you don't need something, why have it?
  2. Everybody Wants to Rule the World - Tears for Fears.
  3. No one interested? Okey-dokey. Guess I'm gonna be looking at trading at my local store - never mind, it happens.
  4. In chronological order: The Noctuary (Very pro-form of...) Mourning For Autumn Every Black Day Ghost Light All goth bands. With differing levels of skill and competency. Sometimes great skill and no skill were present at the same time in the early bands.
  5. I don't currently have a band, I have a project where I'm in charge so the name's my choice. I opted for Ghost Light. It comes from an old Doctor Who story which I liked the name of as it sounds really gothic and appropriate for a goth act. It was almost the name of my old band but it got voted down.
  6. Geezer Butler plays a signature Lakland, doesn't he?
  7. And with that budget they'll probably be very happy to help you out, that's very tidy sum of cash right that.
  8. Laney RBW300 - 165 watts. I bought this in 2007, gigged and used at band practices a few times but not since 2009 as I moved to an amp-free set-up. Moved around a few houses but kept in dry rooms. Still works as good as when bought and was tested recently. A little bit frayed around the edges as can be seen in the photos but nothing major. The sticker was added in 2008 and should come off easily enough if you want to remove it. Collection only, I'm afraid as I don't drive.
  9. Indeed I am not, and the money would be nice to have. I'll have to get some pictures taken and get an ad. up.
  10. Erk! Those vintage synths are spot on the pricey side for sure.
  11. Since 2007 I've owned a Laney RBW300 combo, gigged it a few times and used it for a bunch of rehearsals but haven't used it outside my house since 2009, when I started going amp-less. I haven't even used it at home since Covid so my question is, is it worth putting up on the market place or trading at my local guitar store? Is it now too limited in its versatility? Too heavy? Too big for what it is? I think it's solid state so not having the same desirability as a valve-lovers 52 tonne Ampeg unit. Thoughts, please? Thanks.
  12. Overpriced for what it is, and what it is is a fantastic instrument (the looks aren't my things but respect for it being a Fodera), but if I were into buying it I'd go and collect it in person as it'd be cheaper.
  13. Yamaha BB614 LH. I was 30 and it was my first musical instrument.
  14. I suspect the Behringer BDI21 is going to be difficult to pass up if budget is one of your biggest concerns. I do recommend the Tech 21 VT Bass DI if you do happen to have the money though. As you say, not the cheapest.
