  1. doesn't seem like he's trying to scam anyone, full description and you can go and view it
  2. I have enough trouble listening to a single album all the way through, I invariable listen to one side then put something else on, this from a man who has his mp3 player on shuffle
  3. happy enough with my Trace Elliot series 6 GP12 200 watt, and it only weighs 13Kg
  4. can't think of any tbh, but I'll await some suggestions
  5. nobody, it's just the old dodge, taken to the extreme, of inflating the price to make it look like a bargain, £40 for these strings is a bit high but not excessive
  6. interesting, I'm guessing I have the muscle spasm type because it comes and goes, at the moment it's there for about 10 seconds then goes away for about 10 seconds, it does vary, I didn't get it at all for about 6 months, then it came back when we stopped playing because of the lock down 😠
  7. I'm the same, started off thinking of digitising my LP's but soon realised it was a very time consuming task, recording in real time then manually naming all the tracks, the vast majority of my LP's are on spotify, with my knackered hearing that's good enough for me.
  8. I remember the story about putting your CD's in the freezer to improve the sound, I was silly enough to try it, basically if people are looking for an improvement in the sound they'll hear one.
  9. Nottingham 😁 but I must admit I don't venture into the city centre very often, I perhaps could see the logic in shutting down City Centre pubs, but not the local boozers in the suburbs
  10. not sure I see the connection between education and pubs
  11. I know it's the mailonline https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8784629/Boris-Johnson-faces-furious-Tory-mutiny-sneaking-Orwellian-Covid-lockdown-laws.html you have to scroll down to find the pie charts
  12. well they're not following the rules, that aside only 3-4% of infections are happening in pubs and restaurants, which makes Bojo's obsession with clamping down on them just look vindictive, I'm still trying to figure out what good the 10pm closing rule does
  13. cheers, how do you know that?
  14. we had a multi band indoor gig last night, full PA, not sure how they got away with it, the Police turned up half way through, saw everybody sat at tables of 6, waitress service, mask worn when away from the tables and let it carry on, must admit I enjoyed myself but can see what the problem is, loud music means people shouting at each other at very close distance
  15. I may be wrong but the Fender Rumble 500 V3, if it has a fan it's noiseless
  16. if there were any, which is why bands are doing live streaming, (sorry if I missed the irony) personally I don't like them, nothing like the live gig experience, band vids are good for adverting live gigs, they should be ok especially if it's original materiel. On a slightly different note, I recently had a track blocked from uploading onto youtube because of copywrite despite there being loads of other tracks on there by the same artist, so maybe they're clamping down on copywrite breaches, not before time really, I've long wondered how youtube get away with it
  17. well the 2 we've done, the venues have wanted 'acoustic' which means I play electro acoustic guitar, but because we also used normal (acoustic) drums we needed a PA which meant we were nearly as loud as normal, one outside which wasn't too bad for normal conversation, one inside which wasn't, both went well
  18. well I stand chastised then, but will add Blue has told us numerous times that he's gigging again, personally I'm more interested in how the gigs went with the constrictions of the covid regulations
  19. Whilst not being a fan of @ClassicVibes overly confrontational style, he does have a point, there's little purpose in advertising gigs in the USA on here
  20. yes I've noticed a lot of finger players rest their thumb on the E string
  21. I hook my thumb over the neck apart from when I'm playing the E string, deadens it when I accidentally hit it with my pick, which happens quite a lot 😄
  22. the way I see it is they want to stop unofficial gatherings where regulations, like social distancing and tracing details, cannot be enforced
  23. played an indoor gig yesterday afternoon, again I had to play electro acoustic instead of Bass, for some reason the venues think it'll be quieter, it's not, we've still got a loud drummer and the PA is just as loud. Went well though, the landlord rebooked us It was well run, everybody seated and full waitress service, a decent model for indoor gigs
  24. as with most subjects at school it depends on the teacher, and that's down to luck, as with most things in life
  25. got 2 gigs over the weekend, but, they're 'acoustic' i.e. no bass and me on electro acoustic guitar, we'll still be fairly loud but the venues seem happier than having a full band. My recent experience of gigs post Covid is that as soon as alcohol is involved social distancing and no standing goes out of the window, and venues don't enforce it either, I'm quite relaxed about it but my partner less so
