  1. Yeah you know it. Bloody useless. I did speak to Jason direct at GK but all they can do is put you onto polar audio, I’d be better Speaking to a polar flipping bear!
  2. The mains transformer. New part was ordered on 21st June and given 8-10 week lead time. I am still waiting...It's now nearly 15 weeks and counting.
  3. yes mate, big fan too. A good mate of mine had a sunday jam with him a few weeks ago at the local uni campus, lucky bugger.
  4. Trouble is that I can dial into all the tones I crave for with my fusion 550 and my modulus but as good as it is, the pain of not having it, and having to do many parties and weddings without it, has left me feeling crippled. I have saved and saved for 20 years to get the rig I’d dreamed of, and be treated like this. Shame on them.
  5. Still not received the goods! It is such a crazy system, I really can’t understand how they allow their customers to be treated like this. Been using my back breaking back up rig for what seems like months now. Can’t tell you how p155ed I am.
  6. I wondered if the transformer got its own seat with meal and in-flight entertainment for that price!
  7. As a follow up to this, I did get the standard reply from GK, who then passed it onto POLAR. Its 10-12 weeks for the part OR I can have it express couriered for £120 + VAT. What a p1ss take, I am so cross with the situation. So I have to do all my gigs and functions with my back up rig for 3 plus months. Not happy.
  8. I've tried emailing them direct in the past and they have either ignored or fobbed me off. Shame, I love the products...
  9. Yeah it's through my technician. It's a nightmare, I 've tried direct myself but just get put onto Polar. It is really gutting and if anything goes wrong with my GK stuff in the future I'll be moving to another brand for sure. 10 weeks is no joke.
  10. Ive had my 550 for about 5 years and thought these amps were bullet proof. Last week the transformer died on me, did nothing different, just regular 2 gigs a months at lowish volume, always allow to cool down, kept in rack case, not knocked about and stored in good ambient temps. The result is a £220 repair bill and 10 week wait for parts from the States. Gutted aint the word. Having to use my back breaking Trace gear as stop gap and the the sound difference is soul breaking... Rich
  11. Saw Thom Yorke at the Roundhouse the other week, and while the cinematic background was sublime, his vocals and musicianship was up there, the crowd was stale and depressive and atmosphere was similar. Real shame.
  12. Looks great, trying to work out if it'll look any good with an old trans red colour Ray (94). Rich
  13. will this fit a modulus FU4, does it come with instructions?
  14. Bass received super quick and well packaged. I was nervous about buying and shipping from overseas but I can vouch for this man to be a very trusted seller. One very pleased customer!
  15. An iconic album. I was there when they took the plaster off the ceiling at the brixton academy, and saw them on their return to celebrate the 20 years of leftism, so yeah I'm with you on that one!
  16. I'm on the lookout for an FU4 but can't bring myself to part with wads of cash without seeing and playing it, as much as I'd love a trip out to NL I just don't have the time but good luck selling (need a badass bridge too) Rich
  17. I'm interested in the blue sparkle but got dilemna. New work van or blue sparkle.... But looking at your posts I think you're just being a tease and they're not for sale! Rich
  18. Thanks mate, Wish there was a second hand alien on the market as new theyre ridiculously expensive new! Deluxe it is then I think.
  19. Hey guys I was going to purchase the standard 4 string next week but today got a £150 quid tip from a nice generous customer (I'm a tiler) so I can now afford to jump up to the deluxe. I've been craving an accoustic for many years but have always bought other equipment more necessary to immediate needs. Question is, is it worth paying the extra for the deluxe? I'll be using it for noodling in the front room and amped up for gigs so not essential to have big noise when not hooked up. What do I do? Rich
  20. [quote name='dlloyd' timestamp='1448032633' post='2912534'] Nothing fancy, but very effective...

  21. Have a bump on me, own a 93 with 2 eq and its my one and only baby had from new and plays like a dream.
  22. Thanks guys. Maybe I need to rethink or even get second sub in near future. Only going new as I don't have funds and it'll all be on credit paid monthly.
  23. Just seen they do a more expensive 12 channel, the MFXi12. That comes in at a snip under £500. What do you get for the extra money and is it worth stretching the budget to get it?
  24. Hey guys, I've had enough of our rubbish out of date bits of PA we've been using up to now. We are a 5 piece indie band doing mainly parties and pubs. I'm just gonna go down the credit route and am pretty decided on the QSC K10 package from gear4music. Comes with 2 x K10's, K-Sub, stands, bags and cables. Gonna get the Soundcraft EFX12 from GAK to go with it. 12 channels will be enough with 2 monitors, 2 guitars, 2 vox, bass and drummer will have whole kit mic'd up too, or should i go for a 16 channel. PA package is £2130 and mixer is £275. Before I clicked I just wanted to see what experienced PA people think of that kit for the money and function for what we are. Hopefully hear some positive feedback and click to buy this evening! cheers Rich
  25. I've warned all music shops around and muso mates in the nearby circles around Canterbury etc. I've given up hope finding him or my gear and am resigned to the buying back of my equipment bit by bit, but I wont be gigging anytime soon with or without a singer.
