[quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1342366294' post='1733792'] Me too (you can probably tell by the name) but they've never really been all that great live. I don't blame you. [/quote] They used to be good, but not for that length of time... in one evening. [quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1342366550' post='1733798'] Lots of haters hating the Boss but no love for Macca. (kinda why I posted it here and not in OT) I'm personally brimming with ambivalent about both but I thought there might have been some sympathy for that '60's beat combo dude. [/quote] I hate his 'royal' smugness...

[quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1342366188' post='1733785'] Nah that's not over-running. That's just doing what you've been told by them that's in charge. Hope you upped your fee for the extra work like. [/quote] We were given all the main band's booze. I have no idea what happened.

[quote name='jonthebass' timestamp='1342363579' post='1733742'] That's the trouble isn't it, the competition in that price range is phenomenal. [/quote] If I ever had that much to spend on a single instrument I don't think I'd ever make a purchase. I'd never be able to decide which one!

[quote name='Marvin' timestamp='1342362892' post='1733727'] Sorry, thank you, you were entirely right to amend [/quote] I'm a massive Soundgarden fan. I saw them many years ago play for 2 hours straight. Then went off and came back for 30 mins of encores. They went off again, and came back. By that point I was rather bored and left... Apparently they played for another 25 mins.

[quote name='Marvin' timestamp='1342362679' post='1733721'] Springsteen's renowned for doing overly long sets. [/quote] amended for accuracy

[quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1342356606' post='1733632'] Oh come on guys. Has no one here ever over-ran... or is it that we are mainly just all support acts who can take liberties and leave it up to the main act to take the brunt? [/quote] Or the main band hasn't arrived in time and just as you're finishing the set someone tells you you have carry on for another 40 mins! But, I suppose that's not over-running.

When they were announced there was a maple fret boarded version of this: And It was gorgeous! EDIT: But for that much money I'd rather buy a Wal.

[quote name='silddx' timestamp='1342350480' post='1733500'] The local (miserable bastards IMO) residents got that curfew imposed. Nevertheless, Springsteen should have conformed to it. [/quote] Agreed on both points. EDIT: Although, If I lived near by and knew Springsteen was headlining. I'd have demanded a 9pm curfew!

[quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1342349374' post='1733482'] Oi you don't be coming round here with your seeing the funny side and spoiling things. [/quote] When Springsteen is involved there's nothing funny...

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1342348914' post='1733471'] There's an input gain on the channel surely? [/quote] would appear so: [url="http://www.gearnuts.com/images/items/1800/MG206Cusb-xlarge.jpg"]http://www.gearnuts.com/images/items/1800/MG206Cusb-xlarge.jpg[/url]

Well, there are curfews for a reason. Let Bruce over run for a while and risk losing the licence next year, or cut him off to show you'll do your best to keep to agreed time limits. To be honest, 3 hours of Springsteen should be enough for a lifetime...

The internet has made it a tiny bit easier and a lot less tiring. But I remember coming back from Musical Exchanges, in Coventry and Brum, with loads of catalogues and such. I'd spend days drooling on Trace Elliot, Roland, Aria, Akai and Yamaha catalogues.

The monopitch is pretty impressive really. That was the first time I've used it. Copes with polyphonic playing better than the PitchShift effect. There's also the PedalMonoPitch is the Whammy pedal. It's also pretty good. If you want anything else recorded, just ask.

Here you go, some badly played bass through the 2 different pitch shifter 'pedals' [url="http://soundcloud.com/warm_leatherette/pitchshift"]http://soundcloud.com/warm_leatherette/pitchshift[/url] from 0:18 - 2:00 is the monopitch pedal, this is the monophonic shift. from 2:005 onwards is the PitchShift The whole patch mix is 50% and then the effects ate blended 75% in.

An aga?

I use my Steve Harris P that cost me £850, or a EBMM Stingray that was £650 s/h, or a Warwick Corvette Proline that's cost me about £300 (including s/h preamp, and all new gold hardware) of a Dean Edge 4 that cost me £200.

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1342087201' post='1729210'] It's quite true. 'You can't polish a turd,' and so on and so forth. [/quote] When will people stop using this incorrect phrase?!? [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rax27_ZIVM[/media]

My faves were the Marshall JMC800 and the Orange AD140B. Didn't think the Marshall would be a favourite.

[quote name='tauzero' timestamp='1342132285' post='1730331'] Will it do a decent sounding octave up? [/quote] Depends on your definition of decent. I'll try to do some recordings later if you want.

Leave it.
