New AI generated BC jingle...whaddya think?
EliasMooseblaster replied to Kiwi's topic in General Discussion
What's the difference between a cow and an orchestra? On a cow, the horns are at the front, and the a***hole's at the back. -
Multi-guitar stand by Chord, designed to take five guitars or basses. Enough space in each slot for a typical acoustic guitar body. I must have had this for 10-odd years, and it's showing a few signs of wear, but it still does the job perfectly well. Collection from KT1 preferred, but I may be able to post it if I can find a suitable box - drop me a PM if interested in shipping. £10, or make me an offer! -
Well, after 30 years I've had it wrong all along

It's funny how some basses just seem to 'suit' the way you play...and some really don't! Jazzes are the awkward one for me: I've heard lots of people, from big names like Geddy Lee down to some-other-bloke-at-a-jam-night, get great tones out of them, but I've never been happy when I try playing one myself. And yet, pass me a Precision or a T-bird, and I'm laughing. Glad to hear you've found "your" bass type! -
Good grief, what was this guy's budget like? (It wasn't Tommy Wiseau, was it?)

Yeah, probably the smallest I've ever played! I had a run of gigs there a few years ago myself - this must have been around 2011-ish. I think by that point the owner was really leaning on his connection to Amy Winehouse, as the walls were covered in paintings of her, with portraits of one or two other famous musicians tucked into the corners. Pretty good portraits, to be fair, but it was a bit unsettling having her face staring back at you from every angle!

Behringer PS400 Ultra-Compact Phantom Power Supply for microphones. Comes with 12V mains adapter. Switchable between 12V and 48V modes, takes XLR in/out. Nice and easy to use, and works perfectly well with assorted condenser mics. Since my audio interface has phantom power on-board, I find I'm not really using this any more, so it's time it found a new home. £10 if you're happy to collect from KT1, or I can post for a few quid extra, depending on where you are in the world (PM to arrange delivery). Open to offers. -
D'oh! So there is! -
Marshall Acoustic Soloist AS50R - £100; open to offers 50W 2 channel acoustic combo amp; built-in chorus and reverb effects and feedback filter; 2 x 8" speakers; separate 2-band EQ for each channel; effects loop at rear; DI and line out for routing out to PA or mixing desk. Clear and clean tone all the way up to maximum volume. Ideal for playing acoustic guitar-plus-voice type gigs, or for two soloists. I've found this to be a great, reasonably compact bit of kit for my solo shows; however as my setup has grown a bit more elaborate, this little warrior has become surplus to requirements. A few scuffs on the tolex, and some cursory wear-and-tear, but otherwise in good shape and working order. There is a rear socket for a footswitch - please note that I don't have this to sell with the amp! (Can supply a kettle lead, though) £100 - ONO - collection from KT1. Or, drop me a PM if you'd like to talk delivery. -
Aerosmith Greatest Hits guitar* tab book, published by Hal Leonard. Song list can be seen in the photos, book is in pretty good nick. Any questions, just fire away. £5 plus postage (I'll get an estimate for that presently), or collect from KT1. *that's guitar, not bass, just so we're clear! -
This is the crux of it really - it depends so much on the PA system at the gig! If the band's bringing its own small-ish PA that's only really handling vocals and maybe an acoustic guitar, you're best bringing your ABM and cab(s). If the venue has a massive in-house system that handles everything, save your back and bring a decent DI/preamp. (I wish I'd learned that lesson sooner...)

This bar wouldn't be Jazz After Dark, in Soho, would it?

I recently sold a hard case to Andy. Very nice chap, and a pleasure to do business with. (Our cat seemed to like him as well, which I always take as a good sign!)
-
Many thanks to you too, Andy! Pleasure doing business with you - do you have a feedback thread I can populate in return?

Any Favourite Whacky Songs/Instrumentals?
EliasMooseblaster replied to SteveK's topic in General Discussion
A particularly moo-ving piece of music... -
I'm not sure what's more awesome: the fact that you were on TV (on the Beeb, no less!), or the fact that you can play a sousaphone!
