  1. Hmm. Not something I've come across before
  2. [quote name='keeponehandloose' timestamp='1388254960' post='2320061'] DONT do this! the high powered signal from the amps speaker outs will wreak havoc on such a piece of kit [/quote] No. The Behringer GI100 is safe to connect to loads of up to 3000W. Check the product page please: [url="http://www.behringer.com/EN/Products/GI100.aspx"]http://www.behringer...ucts/GI100.aspx[/url]
  3. I would get the Behringer GI100 and connect it between your head and cab, enable the speaker emulation and then just let him plug into it. No need for mixing signals, or mics. That alone should sound fine!
  4. GuitarGuitar had a second-hand 80's 4001 in a couple of years back. I absolutely loved it but didn't have the funds and I missed out.
  5. I had an Epiphone Pro IV. Probably my favourite bass to grab and play on. Despite what people might say about Tbirds! I ended up selling it though because I couldn't deal with the fact it said Epiphone. And yes, I know that's a truly terrible attitude to have but I felt like a fraud not using a proper Gibson one.
  6. I'm going to take an informed guess and say that tech metal probably won't be to the liking of most BC members! But for those of you who are into the heavier stuff, I highly recommend you check out this band. They are absolutely amazing live.

Although if you don't fancy all half an hour, skip to 19:20 for a good snippet. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBXVDyR7YC4[/media]
  7. I had a SP210 which I bought from a user on here 3 years ago for £320. Saw the going rate on here was only £200 or something so I tried eBay first and to my surprise it went for £310! They are a good idea, but will not give you the sound of a big cab. They'll get you closer than a conventional small cab though.
  8. And one more just to finish off! 1. Native Tongue (now closed), Epsom, 40 2. Cannot be hired 3. £40 paid for 30/40 minute set, as well as a free drinks. No bar share. 4. Beaten-up Yamaha Stage Custom drum kit, 1x Fender 1x Hughes and Kettner mid-range solid-state combos, very shagged Peavey TNT Bass Combo. 5. FoH = 2x old and barely working tops, 1x sub, small mixer, cheap mics, no outboard. Mons = What Mons?. Engineer did a good job with what he had. 6. £1 Fri/Sat.
  9. So I'll start it off with one of the venues I played at recently: 1. 13th Note, Glasgow, 60ish? 2. £80ish for 8-11pm (week nights), but if the bar takes more than £160 you get the hire for free. 3. Haven't played one of their own nights so cannot comment. 4. They don't offer any backline, at all 5. FoH PA was 2 tops and 2 subs, with a small mixer at the back. Did the job alright. Mons were just two mismatched PA speakers on their side that weren't very clear or loud. Sound engineer was mediocre at best and despite being the regular guy there, didn't do that well. 6. We did ours for £3, although some nights are up to £8. Depends on the band/promoter
  10. [url="http://paisleyfreight.com"]http://paisleyfreight.com[/url] You can either use the booking calculator based off weight and dimensions, or they do a flat rate for guitars: Overnight delivery (1 working day), door to door, for £13.50. I've sent drum kits, bass guitars, bass amps, and many other things through them without trouble. They do not insure for damage though, only for loss in transit. If you book a UK->UK delivery with them, it'll be done by TNT.
  11. I'm doing a bit of research and I'd be interested to know what the deal is with music venues round your parts. I'm looking into the possibility of opening one, so if there's a venue near you that you've used or played at, I'd be delighted if you could give me a bit of feedback on the points below. 1. Venue, Town, Capacity? 2. How much do you have to pay to hire the venue (i.e to put on your own gig) 3. If they put you on one of their own gig nights, do you get paid, get a bar share, get a ticket share, or get nothing? 4. What's the backline offered? 5. What's the PA and Engineer like? 6. What's the usual ticket price for events at the venue? I'm talking about the smaller venues 50-150 capacity size.
  12. I live in Southside. Used to use GMS for rehearsals and whilst I still would recommend them, we moved to Shadow Sound Central when it opened a couple of months ago. It's cheaper (only £15 for 3 hours during off-peak hours). Would recommend giving them a go one time, the sound and equipment in there has always been good for us.
  13. I can't hear anything wrong with the quality. The only thing I picked up on was that the vocals weren't ambient enough and didn't sit correctly in my opinion.
  14. It's sold now I'm afraid. Still got the cymbals though if you're looking? Sabian Vault 20 Ride Sabian AA Rock 14 Hats
  15. Yes, it's just the SP212 they offer now. The other ones got the chop! I managed to pick up an SP210 a few years ago and it did me well for when I was in university halls with no storage space. Was still load enough for gigs, and getting complaints though! Now that I've got space again I'm going to be selling it though. Time for a 6x10 methinks!
  16. I'm back in town until Wednesday. After that it will not be available. Price drop to £320.
  17. Time is almost up and I need this sold! Surely there must be someone around London/Surrey that wants a good solid amp?
  18. Stagg. But to be honest, I didn't expect much!
