  1. Know what this hole in your life feels like. My band went out with a bang on 20 December after 7 1/2 years. It all ended on a very good and lucrative note, but now what? DB lessons, that's what.
  2. [quote name='Drax' timestamp='1420223857' post='2646916'] Surely earplugs? Good ones? (for Volume, not lousy drummers, nothing can cure them ) [/quote] Once the damage is well under way, and it was, way before decent earplugs, my experience is that the damage keeps accumulating. Tinnitus as loud as conversation for 30 years. It's getting worse. Time to go acoustic. The other musicians, that is, not me!
  3. Damn, that's a lot of Precisions! AND a red Aerodyne P! Bloody hellfire...
  4. Actually, the Brighton date just became more fluid...
  5. Missed an Out - Squier Affinity Precision PJ Also: Learned: that I'm never again going to play in anything loud enough to need drums. Still reeling from NYE gig, and I'm just fed up with so much volume. And with lousy drummers, come to that...In fact, while typing this, I've decided to scrap the idea of an extension cab for my combo. Too loud........
  6. Added extra: I will be at Wembley Park Premier Inn on the evening of 13th January, so that's a possible meet point. Also possible is the following day in the cab's birthplace, Brighton.
  7. And now, the time has come... With the final demise of the Rock 'n' Roll Outlaws, this wonderful cab is now surplus to requirements. It is in very good, although not pristine, condition. It has done around 120 gigs, but been well cared for. It does not have a cover. [b]Specs[/b]: [url="http://barefacedbass.com/product-range/super-fifteen.htm"]http://barefacedbass...per-fifteen.htm[/url] [b]Handles:[/b] I have replaced two which were showing significant wear. ALL the handle caps are new. This replacement was done for the purposes of the sale, so these bits are brand new and unused. [b]Trades:[/b] no trades. [b]Pics:[/b] [attachment=179751:Dsc00056.jpg] [attachment=179752:Dsc00057.jpg] [attachment=179753:Dsc00055.jpg] [attachment=179754:Dsc00058.jpg] [b]Payment:[/b] Bank transfer preferred, but PayPal gift also acceptable, as is cash on collection. I would prefer not to post/courier, but will investigate this if all else fails. Items this large are handled with forklifts, and Alex's first attempt to deliver mine was a total write-off - forklift tine right through the cab. Happy to deliver anywhere in Devon/Cornwall/Somerset for diesel cost. Or the ubiquitous motorway services shady meet-up!
  8. Cyndie Lauper, Time After Time. AK & US, Forget About It.
  9. Worked a treat! Much precautionary hoovering...
  10. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1419863988' post='2643292'] Best of luck with that, Ad. 2014 was the year I found out just how difficult it is to get a regular drummer who can actually drum!! [/quote] Jeez, this. And more this.
  11. In: Squier VM Fretless Precision Squier VM Precision V Out: Warwick 'The Alien' ABG Fender American Special Jazz Qualifications: I sold the fretless neck and replaced it with a VM77Jazz neck. And I've just this week sold the black blocks and binding Allparts Jazz neck and replaced it with a brand new American Special Jazz neck. Hopefully, that's it for the foreseeable future. Yeah, right...
  12. Have a Kingman acoustic bass. The only criticism is the nut (easily replaced). Fine bass otherwise.
  13. As my band of nearly 8 years has now finished (with a triumphant, sold-out final gig!), my next gig is NYE with a ...disco band! No idea if it will carry on - but if so, great! Have some jazz stuff in the pipeline also, but need to network more to get into something regular and paying.
  14. True. More audible out front no matter the size. And at the end of the day, my 1/2 is cheap and cheerful. But it plays fairly easily, and will do nicely for its intended purpose. Which will mean mostly amplified to a greater or lesser degree.
  15. Currently have a Mk1 CMD121H and a LMIII head. I want to swap the newer head into the combo, as this will be my main rig from now on. Has anyone done this kind of swap, and how much disassembley is required to remove the feet from the LMIII? Merry Christmas!
