  1. We did it before Dave...two years in a row!!
  2. Get some Comply Isolation Foam tips. I use the T-400 set with my KZ ZS10 IEMs..
  3. I have asked Will at Bass Bros...no reply! He is a busy lad though!
  4. Bought this Sandberg from Bass Bros. I like the strings!! Any idea what they are? I think they may be stainless steel as they are pretty bright!
  5. Another shout out for Will at Bass Bros. Just received my Sandberg Electra bass and am very pleased. Great bass,great price and tip top service! Will deffo use again in future!
  6. The pictures don't do it justice! It really shines!
  7. Sire Marcus Miller V7 2nd Gen,North American alder body,hard maple neck,ebony fretboard.Lake placid blue. 34'' scale. Rolled fingerboard edges,3 band eq,natural bone nut,38mm wide.Controls...v/t (duel pot) pickup blend,treble/middle,mid frequency (duel Pot) bass,active /passive toggle. I bought this and a V5 from Andertons in March 2022. Guess which one I am keeping. These are now £439 new. Great condition with a couple of very small marks near input socket. Super smooth to play,low action.....really nice sounds in active and passive modes! Check out the reviews,these guitars are as good as they say!! Can be seen and tried out in Falkirk or posted at your risk if you sort out courier. I have both boxes that the guitar came with! Any questions fire away!
  8. Had a Rickenbacker for a bit. Just could not get on with it so I now use a kazoo.....
  9. To be honest I would not move an inch before hearing some video/audio of any singer in any project I get involved in. Saves time and effort! But that's just me!!
  10. I shouldn't really say....but let's just say it could have been The Storm Queen in Dumbarton Rd. Very busy when we came in. The Karaoke had kept them going for a few hours but I believe there was a football match on and folk had gathered there to celebrate? Lol No idea. But let's just say there was a fair few well oiled punters holding on to the walls as we brought the gear in. There wasn't any trouble that I seen and the punters seemed to like us. But as I mentioned it wasn't a great set up and folk were far too near the band at times. Yes I know its not all pubs that can afford the space for a stage or raised area but a barrier or rope would have helped. I think it was a cancellation and I took the booking to make the numbers up and to break me in to the band. I think that was my 4th gig. Maybe they should stick to karaoke! Oh and on the way out I had to step over fresh vomit at the front door.......doesn't it smell awfully like parmesan cheese.....boak!!!!!
  11. Decent gig in Glasgow's West End. The pub was packed to the rafters when we entered as the Karaoke finished. We started just after 9pm and the set up was dreadful. We were squashed in a corner beside stairs leading up to a raised area in the bar. I was side on to the band with the drummer right behind me. I ended up doing no backing vocals as I had to give the keyboard player a loan of my mike stand as his fell to bits just before we started. Very mixed age lively bunch dancing and singing along. A fair few were very very refreshed and indeed falling about the place. One guy in particular danced about 6 inches from the singer......a fu**ing pest! In fact it seemed to be the prefered route to the toilets in the raised area so we had a constant stream of folk coming and going all evening which was very off putting.Soundwise was pretty dreadful as we were squashed together. We went down well and have been asked back but I think we need to try a different set up next time in. Pubs with drunk folk.....whatever next!!!!
  12. I was self employed for a number of years. Never ignore any letters from the HMRC. Usually they are fine to deal with but not too interested if times are tough! If you can't pay ....sell your granny!
  13. I usually insult the wife...that gets a good slap sound!
