  1. It could be a MIM Fender, but why someone would remove the headstock logo is beyond me. The burst and neck look decent enough. Definitely not the original bridge/tuners/neckplate whatever it is. Glad you didn't pay £499 though.
  2. Or ask former for sale forum admins. Cough cough.
  3. Fallout Boy cover is cool. I tend to like any rock/metal covers of mainstream songs. e.g.
  4. I was quite sure of it being the Vintage until I zoomed in on the headstock.
  5. My god. That was better off unpublished... Aria UK look like total amateurs.
  6. Vintage V950
  7. I've had two L-2000 Tributes and sold both. Always thought they were great at the time, but suffered with the 'they aren't really popular' feeling. Also the L-2000 electronics never really made much sense to me, generally used it passive in parallel settings.
  8. Interview scoring is subjective and easily biased. I've seen band 7 roles be assigned as per my initial post.
  9. I know for a fact some NHS bodies advertise and interview external candidates when they've already decided which internal one will get it. And the post was created for that person too.
  10. Yes. I know.
  11. That brand name.. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ureter
  12. Very unusual. I wouldn't be surprised at all of this is nicked.
  13. How is this the reverse of coil tapping ? It's exactly the same thing, but the coils are further apart. Whilst we're all giving him a solid roasting for his over enthusiastic luthiering and sales 'techniques', I personally see someone who is passionate about guitars and may very well have a personality disorder. But get the hell away from my guitars.
  14. Erm who what and how much ?! https://www.cashconverters.co.uk/shop/product/jacoland-barcelona-custom-built-guitar/713340
  15. I'm considering being flexible. Got plenty of cardboard from moving house.
  16. I watched it in July on a 787 Dreamliner over the Atlantic to the Dominican Republic (honeymoon!). I had over 8 hours to pass and this film helped a great degree. I realised there was some artistic licensing being applied but I didn't like the Stingray making an appearance.
  17. In the 30+ basses i've got through in the last 15 years, less than half were new, and mostly earlier on in my 'experiences'. Second hand is far more cost efficient, and I haven't lost money on anything i've bought 2nd hand and moved on. New i've probably lost around £1k when shifting.
  18. Failed after buying a Genz Benz Neo Pak 3.5 and selling my Trace Elliot Elf (cost after sale was £60).
  19. Not sure what he lent to me, but I have ordered a set of KZ ZS10 Pro. Yes I ran a mostly flat EQ and my DI is post EQ with no compression, although I can do so on my Zoom B3n if I wish. It was OK, but think I need a bit more of myself in the mix, or just less everyone else.
  20. Update: Still waiting for my IEMs to come but the guitarist lent me a spare set of the same type for Saturday's gig. Mixed result, great mix of the guitars/drums and vocals but struggled a bit to really hear myself unless I turned my cab up a bit. They use X Air as a mixer so I will be able to edit my mix going forward hopefully.
  21. I was intending to use a 4 string in my band, but with the mix of songs with some in Eb, it's just easier to go with the 5 string and not have to retune between songs. You have to rewire your brain for some songs (those in F get suddenly easier) but with the practice you'll see the benefits.
  22. That is both a scary and liberating thought.
  23. I would prefer they take the signal from my amp than the bass but get it back into my ear via the IEM, looks like this is possible with the right signal chain ? Obviously using the bass cabled into the head.
  24. Just bought some as they're quite keenly priced and should be here Friday. I can borrow a belt pack from the guitarist to start with however. Thanks for the suggestion.
  25. I've recently joined a band where they exclusively use IEM and a PA. I had one gig with them last week where I took my rig (Elf & Eich 112) and they DI'd it out and it seemed OK, I used my rig as a monitor as well as having a PA monitor for the guitar/vocals. They are now requesting I acquire a wireless pack and some IEMs. I'm a little reluctant as i've only just joined them and don't want to spend money on a 'new' band that may not work out for me (I'm still working them out). Any experiences here of using them and do you still take your rig ? For me, having my amp there flapping my trousers has always seemed necessary and the thought of not being in control of my sound as much a little daunting (I can till EQ from my Zoom B3n but it's not as easy as having the head there). Thanks in advance.
