At the Banshee Labyrinth in Edinburgh with 5 Second Warning

Play quite a lot of bike rallies, biker parties, clubhouse events, probably my favourite kind gig. Always fantastic fun. Never any problems getting paid. Never had any issues with the crowd. The gigs do have a tendency to stretch waaaay beyond the normal 2x60 minutes, but what the hey, they're enjoying it, we're enjoying it

Coolidge... epic

according to him in an interview in Guitarist he played a '65 P bass in his Deep Purple days

Small world... I went to school with Garry and although I haven't met you Ralph, I do know your vocalist Emma

Either Speakon to speakon from amp to cab1 then jack to speakon from cab 1 to cab 2 or Speakon to jack from amp to cab 1 then speakon to speakon from cab 1 to cab 2 Shouldn't make any difference

Just to echo most everyone above... Got a genz benz contour plus the extention cab in december... absolutely fabulous, and incredible value and fantastic service from Bass Direct.

Well done that T'bird... username change request to "Columbo" launched?

Would suggest raising the D string at the bridge and see if that removes the click. Have had a similar sounding problem with a P bass, the action was just a touch low so that on the initial attack the string was clicking off the fret after the one being fretted... or the 1st fret when playing an open string. It only appeared playing fingerstyle as I tend to pluck down through the string, when using a pick and playing across the string there was no click.

Cracking stuff

Was at the Classic Grand in Glasgow last night playing with 5 Second Warning as part of the Clutha Benefit weekend... had a cracking time. Some excellent bands on the bill. It was my first live outing with the band and had a great time. Unfortunately I had to have words with the soundman... the mic he gave me for backing vocals was out of tune House bass rig is an svt450 with 8x10 so no problem being heard

bandmix, Giggem

War Pigs by Black Sabbath... fantastic fun.
