  1. Absolutely, she has a well-trained and well rehearsed voice, it takes skill to be so consistently out of tune. To quote Withnail and I (badly), even a broken clock is right two times a day
  2. Or I'm completely missing the point
  3. Or promotion for the 3rd vid in the OP
  4. Oh come one, she's just doing a Katie Hopkins/Piers Morgan surely, this is the musical version of talking stinky poo and getting meeja for doing so. If not, she's either singing to a track that isn't the track we're hearing or her and the engineer had a serious falling out
  5. IME there are nearly always tensions between the perceptions of the person/people who wrote the music and those who didn't as to audience reaction. I've just started playing with an old band. There are four originals in the set. Even when rehearsing them I can quite literally feel the drop-off in energy we used to experience at gigs when we played them, people who'd been really engaged started talking, people who'd been on their feet sat down, people went to the bar, people walked outside for a cig etc, and we lost the room. But the songwriter/singer can't see any of it
  6. I'm just relieved to be back in a room with other musicians. We're being careful, but I suspect the benefits outweigh the risks in real terms
  7. It's a funny thing how these threads work. Elsewhere on this forum it's often mentioned that, for example, to double the volume of an amp you need to increase its power output by ten, yet we find ourselves discussing whether a 100w unit might be a better bet than a 50w
  8. PF-50 can push out some serious volume into the right cab
  9. Depends on the band, and anyway bass speakers/cabs these days are far more efficient than was the case 50 years ago. I've gigged 50w quite happily.
  10. Would love to be able to say the same of our drummer
  11. I'd pinch it
  12. You looking for male, female or either?
  13. You don't want me singing mate, sorry Love Doghouse
  14. It's Mesa amps with me, every time I go there
  15. Yet another for Walshy, who built this beautiful body. Great guy, great craftsman
  16. Hey mate, why don’t you sing and I’ll come and play bass All joking aside, which studios are you rehearsing at, I’m in Canterbury also and we’re fast running out of studios here
  17. Credit to you Paul, it's a breathtaking piece of timber and craftsmanship, almost feels alive! Funny how the moment I saw it I knew it had to be white PUPs though
  18. Should point out that Walshy didn't just sell me the body, he also made the body. A lovely piece craftsmanship on an equally lovely couple of piece of walnut
  19. Courtesy of Walshy for the stunning body, Lindy Fralin for the PUPs, Kiogon for the loom and an unknown manufacturer for the neck, this is on the basis of going back through photos my 19th bitsa build, and one of the best. Lightweight, resonant and articulate. Check out the wood.....
  20. Very kind offer mate, many thanks, but it's a rather long 4/4 so might not make it if you get my drift. Much appreciated however. Chris
  21. Thanks guys, I've guts on G and D, having removed the A and E from that set on the basis of being rather muddy, and having found that these two Jazzicatos sit nicely in their place. I was wondering whether I should get a D and G. But on the basis of the above, possibly not! Thanks for your help folks Chris
  22. Hello mate, yes still have it, drop me a message to confirm you want it and I'll send you payment details. Cheers. Chris
  23. Thanks Pete, hope all's well mate. Yep, know what you mean, but these are definitely nylon strings. I suspect they may be La Bellas actually
  24. No idea where I got these from but took of my gut E and A as they weren't quite as articulate as I'd like for my current gig. Surprised to find that these really sound good on my 4/4. Anyone know what they are, would like to try a D and G Cheers Chris
