What a price for that - and an hour from me to boot . I mustn't tempt myself though . I bought one of these new when they came out , and it was an awesome amp - but really heavy . Gigged it for years

I saw the OP's first post as he posted , and genuinely thought that he'd fallen for one of those internet rumours . nothing on BBC and no one replied . Not a massive fan , but a fan nonetheless . Such a huge huge loss - really shocked today (pretty much all day) . Maybe this will lighten the mood . http://www.facebook.com/thedailystar/videos/1235790066437854/?pnref=story

In bad taste maybe , but did make me laugh . http://thehardtimes.net/2015/10/01/lemmy-waiting-end-tour-announce-hes-dead/

Excellent

I liked the one Waynepunkdude did , with the photo - asking for people to do as they will with it . There was some great photoshop bits done

That sounds great - really good to demo it with the direct comparison to the DI . Demo shows no difference in models on the patches shown . I'll definitely be interested when it comes out .

In the last few years , when one of our guitarists couldn't make a gig , we've had to re-jig the set around a bit . As the others have said - you'll have a bit more space to fill it out , and this can be like being suddenly 'untied up' . But if I'm honest , the best thing about those few gigs , was that I finally had a bit of physical room on stage , and didn't have to constantly turn to the side , whilst he carried out continual amp fiddling (normally to turn up!)

[quote name='leroydiamond' timestamp='1446546971' post='2900124'] Was on a cruise several years ago and took this clip with my crappy mobile phone, so sound quality is not the best [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTpNWaDAs-s"]https://www.youtube....h?v=HTpNWaDAs-s[/url] These guys were using very basic gear and just a vocal P.A. No harmonising pedals or any sneaky stuff. [/quote] I've just checked this and some of their other clips on Youtube , and the harmonies are really really good . That Joseph has a great voice

Bought myself another Eden 410XLT a year or so back , for £225 . Already have one , doubt I'll ever use the both of them together , but sort of couldn't turn it down . Mental money when you think about it , for an awesome cab .

Well the pub in question never told us , it was in for this last weekend we played there - only found out when we asked . As far as they told us , it was from next year . Luckily they'd had an issue with the set up , so cash in hand . Any band playing there would be non the wiser , until they went to get the cash at 2am , to be told - "sorry , no cash . We require a full name , address , Email address , and Tel number . You then get an Email to a link , and do it all there" . They'll e a few annoyed bands I reckon , as that particular pub weren't for warning anyone !! I suppose many landlords were pocketing some of the budget - good for the brewery , but not for the bands .

Being brought in by Greene King , across the board . There's info on what people think on the FB group - "Gigs for musicians to avoid" - just scroll down and you'll find it . A local GK venue to us is bringing it in from next year , and to be honest , no one want to be the one who gives out their info . I agree , if I was doing function work again , I'd be above board , but not for one pub gig a month , I do now (£45 in my hand) We're seriously considering binning our gigs there for next year - bollocks to 'em

[quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1442078478' post='2864306'] I think the better amps ...IMO...don't have para metric controls..and I have two that don't, which I think is a very good thing. Having said that...my pre amp onboard does.. A 4 band semi parametric is old hat now.. IMO. [/quote] May be right , but still a lot of love for my old Eden head - really nice voiced Semi Parametric

[quote name='Jazzneck' timestamp='1436463453' post='2818392'] Any of you met Jack Bruce when he was having a bad day? [/quote] He lived in Suffolk . Not many of his neighbours had good words to say about him . Had a mate who was there once , and was quite shocked at the animosity towards him .

Well Mark King has had more signature basses , I reckon .

Just read this on here . Really really lovely player - echo all of the above .

[quote name='spacey' timestamp='1427045606' post='2725031'] The issue I find with Rickenbacker basses. They are like a set of precision wood carving tools. If you are a really good wood carver, with tools that are precision made you will excel at what it is you set out to do. If you are a hammer and screwdriver wood carver, then, they will just make things harder to do and you will end up blaming the tool for your failings. Where these instruments have been placed in the hands of experts, we have some of the most distinctive sounding most recognisable baselines in the world. Those that can benefit from them, do so, the others, well they need something that does not require such level of skill to master. Not everyone can do it unfortunate, no point getting angry about it, just keep practising, you might make the grade . [/quote] This is meant tongue in cheek , isn't it? Cause you never know on here - especially lately , it would seem . God , this thread is a mess
