  1. [quote name='EssentialTension' timestamp='1456521514' post='2990091'] Yes, certain things about the setup of the instrument will make so-called mwaah more noticeable but it's in your fingers really and it's possible to 'play it straight' on a fretless and it will still sound and feel different to a fretted instrument. [/quote] It's my life - by Talk Talk is probably a good example of this I reckon
  2. I'm seeing the same - this sometimes happens . It'll be up again later on
  3. [quote name='EBS_freak' timestamp='1454961932' post='2974669'] Well, that's just another kettle of fish. [/quote]Well I've been spectating and not participating (as per usual) , and I doubt I'll be able to think of an unused fish pun , coming into the game this late ; but maybe placing the cases in a ROE , to aid loading , is the best I can do
  4. [quote name='EBS_freak' timestamp='1454959824' post='2974646'] Racks are mansgeable but unless you are flying or putting your gear into a boarded out van (with loading ramp) go padded cases... Says the man with a flightcased Fender Twin. Even with a van, you've still got to get it into the venue... ...which no doubt has lots of stairs. Nobody needs flightcases to play The Tickled Trout. [/quote]But what if the Tickled Trout has flightcased D&B monitors being wheeled in by a bloke with fancy strides on?
  5. 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
  6. [quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1453155203' post='2957008'] Bloody hell... [/quote] That's what I thought - shocked
  7. 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
  8. [quote name='bubinga5' timestamp='1452380636' post='2949529'] PM'd [/quote] I really don't blame you - an absolute stunning bass , that's always come up for sale when funds are light .
  9. In bad taste maybe , but did make me laugh . http://thehardtimes.net/2015/10/01/lemmy-waiting-end-tour-announce-hes-dead/
  10. 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
  11. 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 .
  12. 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!)
  13. [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

  15. 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 .
  16. 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 .
  17. 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
  18. [quote name='TrevorR' timestamp='1443196664' post='2873069'] The Propellerheads cover is a cracking version... [media]http://youtu.be/7O1_0hikl-A[/media] [/quote] Loved this then , and now too . The bit at 6:50 when the bass comes in is awesome - especially with headphones cranked right up
  19. [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

  21. [quote name='steve-soar' timestamp='1436914200' post='2822102'] Saw him at Finsbury Park, useless twat, pissed off most of the crowd. Never again. Good debut lp though. [/quote] Was that the Madstock gig - '96 I think?
  22. [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 .
  23. This looks like the exact one that's advertised on Facebook (Bass Players Market UK) ; but the seller there , is Hal Carter .
  24. Well Mark King has had more signature basses , I reckon .
