The click track is on an ipad, some tracks are just a click and have no set length (drummer stops and starts) and some tracks have some keyboard augmentations on them and so are a set track We only do gigs in venues that supply the PA and light systems, so proper venues but some have smaller stage areas than other For example we recently played The Horn in St Albans. Fantastic PA and soundman but somewhat cramped on stage. Chinnery's in Southend is similar but a bigger stage Thanks for chipping in on this too, it is much appreciated

That's the first combo I put together in my head when you put the pics up. Without the white scratchplate though, I hate those. -
That's the bloody thing with rattles. If you do anything that reduces the energy of the natural bass vibration, it reduces the buzz, so you think you've found the source Whereas all you're doing is not triggering it.

Do any of you guys also find that you sometimes get a "resonant boominess" from the low end of the guitar and bass overlapping and reinforcing each other? Just wondering if the answer might be to set the HPF on the guitar at say 150Hz, which wouldn't impact any of the 2nd harmonics, but would cut the fundamentals on the guitar's low E, A and D strings which directly overlap with the important 2nd harmonics on the E, A and D strings on the bass?

What Beer of the bass said. I love gut, but even I only use the G plain gut (actually I use Gut-a-like Swingmasters these days...), with Evah Pirazzi Slap EAD. The Ebay strings are OK for real simple roots music, but very little note definition or attack in the E and A. Even quality plain gut struggle with that on the E and A. Unless you've tried full plain set and know that's what you want I would advise against. Apart from anything you need to make quite substantial nut and bridge adjustments to get the buggers on, and if you don't like them you're in a pickle. I've been there. Thanky heavens for Milliput.

What is generating your click and what else does it do? Backing track? What application runs that? Have you thought about what visuals you want and how they are going to be produced? Remember that anything you don't produce yourself will be subject to copyright and usage fees. What sorts of venues are you playing? Ones where you have to supply the PA and lights or ones where that is provided by the venue? IME most venues with in-house PA and lighting systems also have a projector installed, all you have to do is find out what connection facilities they have and include yours as part of your technical rider. Projection technology has moved on massively from what Franticsmurf is talking about. We supported a band earlier this month who ran video projections with the projector set up on stage just in front of the screen. Here's a photo of the stage set up: The projector is the grey white box in the middle of the stage and was positioned level with the rack on the left and still filled the screen with video. However, if you have a drum kit that might limit your options on smaller stages.

The sunburst P body with the ebony board would be an exact replica of my fretless P in mid 80’s. 😍 -
Easily the best speaker cabinet I have ever used: am downsizing to lighter Genz Benz cabs as I rarely play live now. The Eden D210XST Cab is loud enough to be heard and yet still small enough to be used at home or in a small studio. For those players who need a portable, high-performance rig with even more low end than the XLT, Eden has designed a 2 x 10" cabinet for their XST woofers. Punchy and clean, the D210XST produces a full and clear tone through its two 10" speakers. It's excellent for delivering articulate bass lines with volume. This 2 x 10" cabinet handles more power than many 4 x 10" cabs on the market. The D210XST offers huge bottom end with its cleverly-designed tuned and ported cabinet construction and speaker selection: the low end is full but tight, the mids are open and well-defined and the highs are clear and crisp. Durable build quality makes this ideal for touring and live performances. All Eden enclosures are constructed with 5/8" thick void free plywood with full dado and rabbet jointing. Massive internal bracing prevents vibration and keeps the sound deep, tight and clear. Exclusive Eden Cast Frame loudspeakers and Eden Cast Bell low distortion tweeter horns are designed, hand-built and tested in their own factory in the USA. Very Good condition. Comes with an official Eden cover. Power Handling: 500 Watts Impedance: 8 Ohms Speakers: 2x10" Eden-spec Eminence EC1060XS speakers Tweeter: Eden Cast Bell low distortion Crossover: 3.5KHz @ 18dB Frequency Response: 30Hz - 14KHz Sensitivity: 103dB SPL Connections: Parallel 1/4 Inch and Speakon Dimensions: 23" w x 18" h x 18.5" d Weight: 59lbs / 26.8kg Only £325. Collection from East London preferred, although happy for buyer to arrange a courier. -
I've found that darkglass pedals work perfectly well with overdrive (they have to, active is really common in metal) but my main source of distortion now is a Two Notes Revolt valve preamp pedal. I usually run it in to my amp but it sounds just as good as a DI

I looked into it for our band, using a projector, a few years ago. The problem at the time was getting the projector far enough away from the screen for the image to be large enough while avoiding shadows from the band and keeping the image bright enough to work in anything other than a blacked out venue. We decided against it in the end (too expensive, needs someone to look after it if sits out in the audience, not practical for most of the venues we were playing). I haven't kept track of the technology since but you need to consider how you would place the projector (brightness drops off as the inverse square of distance) and whether the projector can compensate for 'keystoning' (if it projects at an angle, keystoning is the distortion introduced - most projectors can compensate to a certain degree). Back projection would be best as the distance to the screen will be less because the projector is not in front of the band - as long as you have enough distance behind the band which is usually not the case.

@steviedee I first tried the Sonicake IR loader but it couldn’t handle the file size of the Sigma IR’s so I moved it on and bought the TC Impulse. I didn’t need the headphone out as the TC lives on my doubling board and I have the headphone functionality via my EBS Stanley Clarke pre

This works very well, pics don't do it justice

I reckon I can't let the swamp ash body go to waste. I'll see how long my willpower lasts on the neck. I have a lovely Nash neck that'll work nicely, I suspect.

What a great tune, that bassline
