  1. The tappedy-tapping is pretty easily contained within the room, as a couple of people have already noted - to prevent it getting out I've had success with building a quasi-isolated 'drum riser' thing from layers of plywood, Rockwool and neoprene (cost about fifty quid and an afternoon's building, totally worth it in terms of not having to deal with shirty neighbours). Might be a little overkill for your needs, but if you're one of those who likes a bit of a DIY challenge i's actually quite good fun to do.

  2. Very helpful, thanks Bill!

    EDIT : one of these should do it, right? [url="http://www.duramat.co.uk/checker-plate.shtml"]http://www.duramat.co.uk/checker-plate.shtml[/url]

  3. Slight thread derailment, but rather than start a new one - I'm getting some problems at high levels with my Laney Nexus bass head seemingly vibrating in sympathy with the matching 1x15" cab it sits on a producing a low-level crackling noise with the very lowest notes.

    I'm aware that it's probably a dodgy joint on a circuit board somewhere but there's a LOT of board real estate in there; do you think that isolating head from cab as muc as is possible (Gramma pad, hockey pucks, rubber feet, whatever) might help? When I can afford to and don't need the head for a bit I'm planning to get it into Laney for a service, but as a stop-gap?

  4. In very good nick, used for a dozen or so gigs before I ended up downsizing; 'board Velcro pretty much perfect, and got quite a bit of pedal Velcro to go with it as most of mine had it on already. £30 ONO if you can collect from Birmingham-way, or a couple of quid for postage? Potential for trades, no idea what I want (except for a decent floor-based acoustic preamp) though...
