  1. [quote name='bertbass' timestamp='1494254788' post='3294369'] At sound check and the beginning of each set unless I think it sounds out then I'll check it again, silently of course. Guitarist is another matter. [/quote] Me too.

    Ages to type!

    Quite often get this at work when I'm logged on during lunchtime. Windows 7 pro with mega spec and IE. I don't have Chrome to check as a comparison yet. It's very frustrating and I tend to just browse in that case.
  3. Had to listen to War Pigs as its in our set too. Cracking song and fun to play. Also see you do Crazy Train too, which is also in our set! The music is well tight for a live take. The 2 songs seems a bit fast though but work. The singers voice is unusual and there is something about him which i like but also something i don't. I would have to see you live and what his stage presence is. If he can be a real front man he should be ok. I will have to listen to the rest another time but what you have done is great. Shameless plug for our Soundcloud tracks which feature live gig recordings or War Pigs & Crazy Train. I used a cheap Line 6 BackTrack so the quality isn't great. https://soundcloud.com/carl-mepsted
  4. Buy the tool off eBay and do it yourself. I did one of my basses. The tool is quite cheap and if you are careful is easy enough.
  5. [quote name='skidder652003' timestamp='1493373782' post='3287831'] welcome from Teignmouth! If you check out the used section in Mansons, there are some bargains to be had, I find Project musics bass selection pretty dire TBH [/quote] A friend of mine always gets good second hand amps and cabs at Mansons.
  6. Hi and welcome to the forum. Glad you have seen the light and going for the bass. Enjoy it and the BC community.
  7. Just get on with your agenda. Maybe she will feel like a gooseberry. Annoying though.
  8. Very clefer
  9. That's quite a set of problems. I have suffered from blocked up ears before and usually both at the same time or one then the other in quick succession. I did by an online ear syringe which is a small plastic bottle which concertinas in and out. It worked really well and first time to clear my ear after using some bicarbonate of soda drops to loosen the wax.
  10. Blimy. Heavy as a pile of rocks then!
  11. Wow. I was chewing over either a 210 or 212 some time ago and went with the 210, which I bought off funkshui here. No regrets as it a great cab and so small and lightweight. I can feel my GAS level rising looking at this baby.
  12. If you are only using that cab then get the 4ohm conversion. You will be living in barefaced heaven. I'm blown away by what 210 can deliver.
  13. Go Your Own way is a blast to play. The chorus is fantastic. Been in our set for a few years and always goes down well.
  14. The dot to the left of the thread title will take you to the last post you read but will not skip to the last page or post. I don't think there is a way to do what you want on the mobile site.
  15. I only have these for now. I'm due another hearing test soon and will discuss some moulded plugs as that would be the better long term solution.
  16. I too ride a motorbike but use the generic foam plugs for that. Got a bag full which will keep me going. Not sure I would want to use expensive plugs on a bike. I'm using Flare Isolate plugs for gigging currently
  17. They do not muffle the sound just cut the volume and some frequencies. My bass and the drums sound great. Had to get something quick after getting tinnitus at new year and these do the job for now.
  18. I'll have to watch this thread. Bought a pair of the aluminium ones early in the new year and have used them a handful of times. Going with the medium tips and will purchase a set of spares anyway. For the price though they do a good job and really work for me.
  19. Will fixing a wheel to the log get it out of trouble then?
  20. There are 2 threads running about this issue. Doesn't seem matter what you are running as it can get through? I've had it twice and scans don't pick anything up. The advice on the other thread is to hold the enter key and close the browser page tab or browser. It will go then until the next time!

  22. This PAT testing comes up occasionally. Is correct that it only relates to employers and equipment used by their employees. There is no legal requirement. It seems that perhaps some venues are getting pushed by their insurance for it. Has anyone challenged it and done the gig anyway I wonder.
  23. Had a quick play with one at the LBGS recently. Felt fantastic. Didn't get to plug it in though looks gorgeous too. Could easily fancy one myself
  24. Good luck with your sale. It looks great. I'm in Torquay too but will have to live with my EB Stingray. I won't succumb to GAS. I'm tempted with the new Ashbory bass that's just come out instead.

    New Ashbory

    Tempted myself. What scale length to go for though?
