I had D'addario NYXL 45-100s on, the EQ was a bit odd as its just a single tone control but with quite a boosted sounding top end when wide open. I managed to get some decent tones from it, it had quite wide range.

£4-500 is about the going rate for these. I had one for a while, thought it was excellent if not exactly lightweight. A proper slap machine.

Depends if the 5th knob goes on the right or the left 😉

You'd certainly hope so, this was at a festival type event and they were the only group to have this stipulation.

That was not how crew at events were treated. Don't look at the talent, don't talk to the talent. That's what we were ordered - upon pain of ejection.

Don't bring fish into it 🤭

Not unusual in the industry. Status Quo were similarly full of themselves.

280w apparently 👍 https://www.google.com/search?q=gp12smx+4001&oq=&aqs=chrome.1.69i177j35i39i362j46i39i175i199i362j35i39i362l2...4.-1j0j7&client=ms-android-samsung-ss&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8

Definitely Rotosound with those ball ends.

A photo of the ball ends might help 👍

Wishing you all the best Daryl / @Bluewine 👍

It's still a hateful dirge!

Played it at a gig and got paid = pro instrument. 👍

I thought it was 'FFS do a search'

I paid £200 for my Yamaha RBX765A - it has 19mm spacing and a 34" scale. Doesn't feel cramped at all.
