Just a quickie 😁 Could I send out a monitor mix from my mixer using the control room connection?

I'm a drummer as well as a bassist and I absolutely hate the hand grenade kick sound out of the PA. So, I'm that band member that does the sound engineering at gigs.... but only because no one else wants to do it. I hate juggling bass/drum duties with mixing, it takes my focus away from playing but hey, what can you do hire a sound guy, like we can afford that. Anyway, one way to do deal with it, and what we do, is record the gig. I do it two fold, from the desk and with a field recorder in the room to get the audience perspective. As a band we play it back to analyse our performance and see what needs tweaking, that includes the PA mix which the band are quite particular about.

Anyone have any experience with "Richards Guitars"?
bass_dinger replied to hellothere's topic in General Discussion
I am looking for an Eastman Mandolin, and Richard's Guitars seems to be the only UK shop with the full range of instruments in stock. Four hours on the train, but nevertheless on my "must visit" list. -
I had mine made as I wouldn't want to do such things myself. Refinishing is too much of the same thing over and over, apply clear coat, sand, repeat, and I'm not good in those.
-
And their tribute act, the Sugar Tax Babes.
-
Thanks and good idea. Problem is, I am not really into neck shaving and refin. However, if someone knows someone who can do it, then it could be an option.
-
The middle wenge neck one on the white bass is particularly attractive IMO. Can I ask whether you felt they were noticeably different in weight to maple? And have you done any finishing on that one?
-
One of my fav albums, along with Bright Size Life and certainly my preferred Jacob period. Sounds like a really interesting band, will definitely have to check them out.
-
That's pretty rad!

Hi, I've just changed all of my current cymbals to Meinl Custom Classic Darks, so I'm now looking to sell all of the cymbals that were on my kit before the Meinl's came along! This is a full comprehensive set of cymbals that all sound superb. All have been used, some are older than others but all are in great condition and have no cracks anywhere. You can see the Sabian Pro Ride and the Zildjian Avedis Crash logos are faded a little, but this doesn't in any way impact the sound quality. All in, to buy these new would have cost you somewhere around £1200. The cymbals included are all listed below, I'll also throw in a decent quality Cymbal gig bag so they can all be carried away easily! Zildjian ZXT 14" Hi-Hats Paiste PST5 16" Thin Crash Zildjian Avedis 16" Crash Meinl HCS 10" Splash Istanbul Agop Xist 18" Crash Paiste 101 18" Crash Sabian Pro 20" Ride Paiste PST8 18" Rock China Collection from Wickford, Essex would be ideal, but I can probably post them if needed for around £20 as I have some spare bubble wrap and a box I can send them in - as well as them being in the cymbal bag.-

Try again 🙂

I've been using its predecessor, the Tecamp Puma 900, for many years. Very happy with it. And it has options for colouring the tone or just leaving it uncoloured.

Basses you don't regret selling (or regret buying)
chris_b replied to BassAgent's topic in Gear Gallery
I didn't regret selling any bass. Some were good basses, and some weren't, but they were all sold because they were replaced by something better. -
Contribution to the tonewood debate - a unique take (Bacci)
Hellzero replied to three's topic in Bass Guitars
You can get that weight with non destroyed wood. When you think you've read and seen all, someone is there right the next corner waiting with his bullshìt marketing. Next one will be totally rotten wood falling apart glued with punks' spittings? That said, I'm on the tonewood side, but when stupidity hits the target, all I can do is 🤦🏻 -
The list updated with recent changes. OK that's weird. There are none of the changes in that quote

No worries - I totally understand! -
'08 Lakland Skyline DJ-5 - Lake Placid Blue £800

Hi there, still available? Also what's the weight - cheers 😊 -
U.K. postage is around 70 on Shiply so would let this go for £400 delivered Thanks -
U.K. postage for this week a coming in around £110 on Shiply.com which would make the cab, 550 delivered so I’m happy to half the expense and sell for 500 delivered. -
14 TX64 Pads and Mounting arms Pads work perfectly well responding to all pad trigger areas and velocity. I originally had 3 full kits at my rehearsal room but have no need for them and most of the parts/frames etc have been sold. selling as a job lot as I’d rather not split and do individual postage. Collection is good too, NE26 or NE6 or could possibly drive to meet depending on distance. Any questions please ask. Thanks David I -
I had the 2x8" combo too - really nice sound and very cool styling, but insanely heavy for a small combo. Made by Carlsbro apparently. OP amp looks a bargain for proper quality kit -
If it works, it works! They're bloody weird things. Rattle from the endpin? Right ... a cushion strapped to the back will fix it!😂
