absolutely tragic.

picks from Kerry King, Mick thompson, Rob trujillo (whilst with Ozzy), Zakk Wylde - not the ones you get with strings or emgs!, gary moore pick used on the song "parisienne walkways", carmine Appice drumstick from a show i did with him. Gene simmons signature, Steve harris' signature a few times over!, Flea's autograph, EVH's autograph, an Iron maiden promo vinyl boxset of best of the beast signed by the band at the time (steve, nicko, dave, janick, and blaze), zakk wylde signature, michael angelo batio. signed records, cassettes signed by nicko, Chuck schuldiner, terry butler, bill andrews, paul masvidal, sean reinert, steve di giorgio, kreator, acid reign, morbid angel, cathedral, ian paice, chad smith, carcass, entombed, sepultura (arise era), xentrix i'm sure i'll remember more later, but that's it for now

the m*nge box ??

i have a friend who was the audience clapping on a peter gabriel live album. apparently they were out of time with the performance, and the clapping sound was sampled and my friend had to sit through the particular song 'clapping' on a keyboard. whenever i have done live recordings, i'll not re do anything. either it's good enough to release or it isn't!

if you have a p bass, try raising the g string side of the pick up. should help to balance the output of the bass

would he take an air cheque?

if only...... saw them a couple of years ago in London. totally awesome! mind you the sound was aweful until my mate (who was in the welsh guards at the time) threatened to teach the sound man about mixing have a beer for me, and enjoy!

i did see a weeping demon wah pedal on ebay the other day. It retails around £110 yet the seller had set his buy it now price for a used example at £185!

dunno about BVT - looks more like 'but' to me. says more about it than anything else i suspect!

black sabbath? hell hole- spinal tap matthew hopkins (witchfinder general) - Cathedral

the levins are cracking basses. really versatile - also they are now discontinued, so if you like the way it plays, go for it!

totally OT, but i bumped ito her at bluewater the other day. a lovely person to talk to!

email strings and things. they are the uk distributor for mxr. they'll send one out to you. i have had a few from them over the years, and they've always been FOC

a genius?

this was featured in guitarist this month. the retail price is given as £429, and is available from sutherlandtrading.com apparently

my experience of the BDI is exactly the opposite of that mentioned above. It has always performed well for me and those i loan it to. (it is held as a spare bass DI as a part of our church's PA. personally i own both the VXL, bass exciter and the mxr. The mxr it was i will always by choice. an excellent piece of kit. IME far better than the BDDI. I still have a hankering to try the tone hammer though!
