Hot dang Billy-Bob, tie it to the pickup truck and drag it around town a while

Good band

Yes at home volumes no issues. What I would do as a routine though is before use turn the volume and - if it has this - input gain fully off to protect against unfortunate incidents such as the volume knob having been knocked all the way up. Last thing you want happening is switching on and hitting that first note to find amp is on max/cab surrendering.

Blue for me, with tort of course, red with white (although Arsenal colours) us a bit too Shadows.

Two fine examples there Clarky

Looks great Nick, love sound & playability of Tbirds, though carrying the cases around was enough to put me off gigging them

Fender US Standard Precision. Although I have my faves amongst them any US Standard just works for me.

For gigging as my tuner is on the pedalboard it’s floor. At home everything on to of the amp for easy adjustments.

I remember being rather exited by Death Magnetic til I got it but after a few listens just decided it was ok at best.

I always thought that the (continual) backing vox on Sid Sings brought more than a touch of the absurd.

Well received my copy of The Last Resorts Skinhead Anthems Vol IV on Thursday and have to say it’s a contender.

Beautiful bass, many congrats

It’s all part of the act/parody of the stereotypical northern hard-man/lad image of the 80s, luckily he and the band are nothing like that off stage.

I was the same, my style/dynamics were dig in all the time for every song, so compression largely didn’t help. But since I started playing with a lighter touch I have found compression to be more useful though in all honesty I still prefer it without.

Having had 70s Precisions and US Professional 1 basses, although both were good I’d rate the 2013-16 US Standards as better.

Great bass and even better that it stops that dusty end malarkey 😂

Use the shite sandwich approach: You’re looking great tonight (good) I bought a new bass today (bad) You deserve a night out, beautiful (good)

Yes a few times, first was at The Greyhound in Fulham, 30 Dec 1985 (was driving hence being the only one I actually remember when).

Probably something simple but best get it to Ashdown HQ for diagnosis

I used to love Wrathchild, Stakk Attack!

I’m in two bands, one which doesn’t gig cos all we do is rehearse once a fortnight (haven’t even got a singer) and the other band maybe gigs 10/15 times a year, and only rehearses for new material or when necessary. Much more easy to deal with than my last band which both rehearsed and gigged pretty much every week, with the gigs being very far-flung.

Apparently it`s the nearest in sound to an 810 cab that Ampeg make, that to me is good enough endorsement.

A true classic, great song/album.

Some people use the word to denote slave, not colour. A mate of mine used to work in antiques and his Spanish boss was always using the N word for his staff, and every single one of them was white.

Yeah we played with Filf at Amsterdam Rebellion and agree, much better now Muttleys back on vox doing what he does best.
