Total Watts

  1. Thanks for the update, tbh the amp by itself is 18kg so I’d probably ditch the case to make it slightly more manageable. I’ll have to think about it over the weekend
  2. That’s good to know, ive been thinking of getting my D800+ looked at as it’s got this high pitched noise that I can’t isolate. Have always loved Mesa Amps massively regret selling on my M9 was the best amp I’ve owned.

  4. Thanks everyone, there’s some tracks that I’ve had to learn all the fills and play everything as close as i can to the albums but then some of the newer stuff they’re not so precious about and that’s when I’ll be a little bit more carefree. it’s not a bad situ for someone who’s used to playing in covers bands. No one has commented either way tbh so I guess going unnoticed either means I’m not worth talking to or I’ve done a competent job lol 😂
  5. I’ve joined an established 80s metal band and the original bassist played a 4-string. I play a 5-string and I was wondering what the general consensus is about the using of the lower register on tracks that weren’t originally written with that in mind. At the mo I tend to just drop some the bridges and endings down an octave to fatten things up. I’ve not had any complaints from the band member’s but I thought I’d ask the collective hive mind if I’m committing blasphemy.
  6. Hi! Thanks for your reply Im currently looking for a covers band in local area with the hope things will ease a bit in the next couple of months
  7. Thanks, I’ll have a tweak! See if there’s any improvement :)
  8. I’ve got a darkglass super symmetry compressor into my Mesa d800+ amp, and ive noticed that when the pedal is on there is a noticeable amount of hiss coming from the output, switch it off and it’s gone. Is this normal for compressor pedals to be a bit hissy? You don’t notice it when I’m playing ( at least with the band) my settings are ( the pedal doesn’t have any ratios or numbers on it) blend @ 100 input @ 9pm compression @ 11pm release @ 0 attack @ 10pm output@ 2pm ( volume matched to when the pedal is switched off) Thanks for any advice!
  9. Recently moved to the area and looking for a new band. Been playing for 20 years, 5-string with a good rig. Rock Covers bands would be ideal and preferred but open pop or blues too! would be happy to dep Own transport and fast learner. Drop me a pm if interested
  10. It’s not so much for site hopping as you but like I mentioned before I belong to 5 non-music related forums and so it makes it easy to access the forums on a mobile device. If you’re only on one forum then yeah it’s totally pointless. But thanks for the answers, I thought it maybe something to do with the mods in place on the forum
  11. Thanks everyone I’ll check those out and report back!
