  1. just ordered some DR neon's from stings by mail in the USA, after a couple of days leaving my order in the sites basket got a discount code for $5, which bought the total price down to £28, including postage, waiting to see whether I'll get any extra import charges
  2. I've got a black one, paid a mate £40 for it, a bit battered and heavy because it's ply, lovely bass though, I sound more like J J Burnel than with my precision, converted it to a lefty and got a new bridge from China for about 15 quid, the picture had Seymour Duncan quarter pounders pick ups on it but they made no difference so I put the stock De Marzi's back on
  3. well I've clicked to join, see what happens, though if it's not strongly moderated it'll finish up full of spam. Facebook is good for advertising gigs but not a lot else, unless you enjoy looking at others peoples holiday snaps and their meals
  4. if you saying what I think you're saying maybe you need a bigger screen or a new pair of glasses
  5. I just had an email from ebay, they're introducing a new 'regulatory operating fee, .35% plus VAT on the final selling fee
  6. this is the reason I wouldn't like to go down the 'everything miced up and everybody has IEM route' (although the singer has them, but he says he can hear enough on stage without anything else going through them) I don't like the setting up taking down of the PA (me and the drummer do it) especially after the gig, so the simpler it is the better I like it
  7. with it being strung right handed and the bridge looks like it's been moved, someone (who doesn't know what they're doing?) has been messing about with it
  8. not on it's own, no, it's great for one mic, to give that mic it's own mix, but to use with 3 mics you'd have to have a little mixer before it
  9. I think mine must be in the mild overdriven category, I use a Zoom B1on and I've left it in tuner mode and not noticed for a few songs 😕
  10. the OP has not said what size venues the band plays, presumable not very big otherwise they wouldn't need their own PA, if the drummer can't hear his own kit the on stage the sound must be way too loud, at big venues the band shouldn't hear much of the FOH sound. The OP also asked the question would musician grade ear plugs be the answer, if it were me (and it's not) I would try those first before investing in extra kit
  11. right see what you mean, I'm with @solo4652 on this, I can't see ear buds or phones blocking out the sound of an acoustic kit, as others have said an electric kit might be a better bet, or custom ear plugs, seems a load of trouble to go to just so the drummer can get the bit of extra clarity he'd lose, say, using ACS custom ear plugs
  12. true, but like I said a few posts ago this does https://www.andertons.co.uk/live-pa/live-headphones/behringer-ma400-headphone-amplifier
  13. we had this problem, one monitor out, singer always complaining he couldn't hear himself, us complaining we couldn't hear our backing vocals, this solved the problem, without a new mixer https://www.andertons.co.uk/live-pa/live-headphones/behringer-ma400-headphone-amplifier
  14. as a pub band we've been using a Yamaha EMX 512sc for about 18 years now, not sure it's still available but things have moved on to powered speakers anyway, it's served us well, vocals, bass drum, but trying to figure out what is the power out put is not easy, 500watts according to Yamaha https://usa.yamaha.com/products/proaudio/mixers/emx_box_type/emx512sc_spec.html some retailers add the 2 channels together and call it a 1000 watts and Yamaha don't say whether the 500 watts it's RMS or not. Some manufacturers are very naughty with their power ratings, Alto plaster 2000 watts on their speakers but I suspect that's peak power, nowhere near RMS
  15. I used some old lawn mower extension cable when I was making up up a long lead for our PA, no problems at all, and it's yellow, so easy to see
