As a drummer, I assure you, I'm as confused as you are! I've never seen anything like that before!

When I couldn't decide between two Thunderbirds I was on the brink of buying both.

Yep. The minirigs sound amazing yet don't have enough volume for gigs. The EB 12 and 15 combos are louder and will be alright for small shows.

If you're able to spend a bit more have a look at the Ibanez Promethean. I was going to get one but then I decided to go down the orange route instead.

Alternatively, if there is a drummer out there then I can do bass instead...

What you're describing is that the guitarists might be using stereo cabs?

I've never played in a band. Go me

Has anyone been tempted to use all their heads and cabs to create some mammoth wall of sound,[i] and[/i] try it at home?

oh not another one!

Used to play with tone at 0% and Bridge 100%, Neck 70%

I can't find the song list we wrote A snippet of it was songs like: Rock and Roll - LedZep Don't believe a word - Thin Lizzy Song 2 - Blur Hate to say I told you so - Hives Plug in Baby - Muse

Just be glad you're not trying to put a thunderbird down.

I would recommend getting the focusrite saffire pro 40 and the focusrite octopre. That'd give you 16 channels to play with all on one firewire connection. As for condensor, a shotgun Mic will do you much much better than a normal style condenser microphone.

I've just made a post in the bassists wanted section. Have a look there for more info.

I'm playing drums for this outfit so we are in need of a bassist. Planning on covers to begin with, and a view to moving progressively to originals as and when. We are 19, 21 and 23 so we're looking for someone preferably around the same age. Someone who can join in on vocals would also be most handy! General rock/metal haberdashery. Hard to pin a particular sound on it. I'm big on nu-metal, lead guitarist is one for 70's rock and the rhythm man is 80's rock. Probably turns out as a heavier wolfmother shizz. We've all been playing for a long time but not together so it's a new formation. So if you're in the area and fancy joining some gibson toting student types in a band then let me know! We've got a decent practice space here which we use. If you're unable to transport a rig in for rehearsal then you can use mine for ease.

I need a bassist in my band as I'm being drafted to drums instead.

And another Bournemouth guy! Hi there!

I should be of some help. Could you PM me with the specifics of ze task?
