It might be handy if you put in a 'link' - ie Facebook , or Youtube to your band . Anyone interested can then get a idea about the type of band you are , and check out what the best out there sounds like .

Is anyone on here using this as a pre-amp , straight into a power amp , as their main rig . I've seen a lot using it as a pre-amp pedal as part of the board , but can't see if anyone is using it as a pre-amp proper

01787 is Sudbury area - Suffolk , almost into Essex

Small world - years ago , I used a plug in Armstrong Red Ranger for a Precision . I think they used to do a little range of plug in units

That looks great mate

[quote name='fretmeister' timestamp='1466097151' post='3073356'] I liked my Ray. Now I've gutted it and loaded it with 2 EMGs I love it [/quote]Is that with an EMG replacement for the original PUP , and another in the HH position? Got any pictures? As I was half debating whether to do this to mine - EMG MM PUPs don't seem to have a lot of love , but I'm really interested in how this mod pans out

I haven't seen this one for a while - used to watch it once in a while . Love Sanborn's playing in this

This is great . I've always been finger style only , and now trying to use a pick for the first time in 30 yrs . This is exactly the pick style I'm looking at - what a great player

oops , never saw that - he he

You may want to give an area , of where you are

[quote name='Maude' timestamp='1463261693' post='3050076'] All the instruments on the Def Leppard one really easy, I can even drum to it with one arm tied behind my back. [/quote]My mate used to play some Def Leppard in a band years ago , and used to pull one arm out of his T shirt for those songs

I've sort of gone the other way . Had my little Eden WT400 for 15 yrs , and at the time it was a lightweight ; though some now would say no . I used as Eden 410XLT for 15 yrs , and skirted with NEO Epifani 410 and 610 , and gone back to the Eden as love the sound of it . Just bought a Crest CA9 this week , to go with an Eden pre amp . The sound is awesome , and the Crest , frankly , is not as heavy to carry as it's made out to be . The Eden cab is heavier at 3am , but I look at it like this - I play it for 3 hrs , and carry it for 3 mins .

Only about an hour from me - nearest bass shop now ...hmmmm . Is there going to be a Web page Nick?

[quote name='4stringslow' timestamp='1462913942' post='3046996'] What happened to the 'big man'? Did he go on to make a name for himself? [/quote]He's still on the circuit - a living out of it , I think . He was in Les Mis for a while in the West End , but never quite made it - twat .

Fired , but sort of ready to leave anyway . Around late 80's early 90's (can't remember now) , I was called up to work with an up and coming new country guy , who , locally , was well known , and had a great reputation . Loads of Sunday rehearsals , and band was cracking . Did some really good USAF gigs , and a real buzz around the band was happening . Everything was evenly split , even though it was his name as the band - The ***** band , as such . This was never an issue with anyone . He then copped some big paying gigs , and decided that for them , we'd be on a wage , but an even split on the cheaper gigs . The guitarist wasn't happy , and caused a scene , as his mate , he looked at me , and I agreed . The other two just stared at the floor , not wanting to upset the 'talent' . This was primarily because there was an Albert Hall gig booked (as part of a festival) , and they didn't want to not play there . The guitarist got a call from the girl fiddle player the next day , as did I - big man never even had the guts to do it himself . There was talk about me helping them out with the Albert Hall gig , but I told them to **** off . So by complaining about £20 (I think it was) , I got fired . Even today when I get a shirty Landlord giving it the 'big I am' , I mention that I'm not bothered about playing their poxy pub , as I turned down playing the Albert Hall , all over £20 . He he

[quote name='sunburstjazz1967' timestamp='1462355934' post='3042277'] I suppose this is where those six D&B monitors would really shine as long as they weren't hired out when you needed them? :-) [/quote] That's never going to go away , is it ...... he he

[quote name='peteb' timestamp='1461699446' post='3036955'] He's not bad either... [/quote]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69EcnxJmnd4&list=PLSiv2uRgWAfKg5dhTiueLZQwdOKIIYGdd

[quote name='chardbass' timestamp='1460475832' post='3026040'] They were the favoured amp of choice a while back. There have since been others and now there is someone else :-) I've played Eden WT heads since '99. [/quote] Me too - had my WT400 since about 2000/1 and it's all I've played since . Only lacked power on one gig - awesome little amp As said , they were flavour of the month for a while , and now not so . Good thing is , the 2nd hand market prices are now really low - good time to be an Eden lover

I'm surprised no one has mentioned 'Let it grow' by Clapton

I had this with Elites with my rear loaded stingray on the E sting only . I just now never buy strings with silked ends

[quote name='colgraff' timestamp='1459164959' post='3013970'] I think this is a natural extension of a cashless economy. We all like to be paid in cash, but as we are providing a commercial service, being paid cash with no questions asked isn't really defensible in the 21st century for a band or a plumber / builder, etc. [/quote]Playing Devil's here - but does that logic then extend to buying a pint from the same venue? I understand this is the way it's going , and bands have been used to cash in hand ; but the payment surely 'has' to be both ways?

[quote name='barneyg42' timestamp='1459196444' post='3014393'] I wonder if some of these venues get a cash allocation from the brewery anyway and "lose" it somehow! Very easy to fake a receipt! Cynical? Me? [/quote]And this now ties in with the other topic - about InvaPay and the Events payment method . Cash in hand pub bands losing out because of a few greedy publicans .
