  1. Agree, every single person who attends the gig, be it few or many, they all deserve the best a band can deliver.
  2. I`ve always answered no to that question. Mainly because the actual answer was "your bum looks big in everything". Which of course I was far too diplomatic to say.
  3. Been there Dan, was rather disappointing to find out my (imo) great onstage sound was so rotten in the audience.
  4. I had a Nemesis 410, very loud, good sound, plus nice & light.
  5. Good to see them making a return, never understood the Marshall buying them thing, they did pretty much nothing with them.
  6. Ah, I suppose as I’ve only ever played along to The Ataris version I thought the original was also Eb. Hot-dang pop-punkers!
  7. If anything I’d drop to D if the guitarist is finding Eb awkward, as agree upping to E makes it sound a lot lighter.
  8. Ampeg SCR-DI would be my suggestion. Blendable gain which does from touch of break up to Lemmy really nicely, plus the Ampeg sound/eq.
  9. I’d say don’t criticise but offer some tips/guidance, but make sure it’s advice that they would be able to take on.
  10. Yup, I’m in that camp too. I’ve been more than satisfied with all the lightweight amps & cabs I’ve had but whenever I’ve used a bit of old heavy gear there’s just been something “more” to the sound and the feel of the sound on stage. Especially if it’s a big stage.
  11. No, you want to have a good holiday, metaphorically put your feet up and relax, not have a load of stuff from back home to deal with whilst away.
  12. Could be cap or possibly pots - Squier use 500s which are brighter, changing them to 250s sorts things out nicely, maybe Sire do similar?
  13. They really are good pickups, imo very similar to Fender Custom Shop 62s which are pretty much £100 more.
  14. Hi Chris Just measured a set taken from Player Series
  15. Agree, as well as the above at auditions wherever possible I stand on same side as hi-hat & snare so as to really keep an eye on the drums and lock in.
  16. In both of my gigging bands the singers are naturally very good at interacting with the audiences. That said I prefer when going to see a band to hear them play songs. I’d be more than happy for there to only be a smidging of chat at most. I don’t really care what songs are about and I don’t have any interest in hearing them thank anyone and everyone from the bar staff to the lollipop man who helped them cross the road in 1972.
  17. Without pics, I have: 3 x black Fender JMJ Mustang basses 3 x black/black/maple Fender Precisions (3 x US, 1 x MIM)
  18. I wonder if this would work with the California TT
  19. Will they be like decaf where as there’s less of them they’ll cost more?
  20. I reckon that`s the way forwards
  21. That looks to be a good gig, great supports too. If my back was able to do a standing all day gig I`d def look to go to that one.
  22. That was a huge factor in my getting a Fender Rumble 800 210 combo. At 13kg it’s the same weight as one of my Ashdown 210 cabs (of which I have two). So as well as reducing the weight (and number) of the large-ish items I need to carry I now don’t need to carry an amp head & speaker leads, plus the inevitable bending over plugging them all in, just combo & mains lead, much less stress on the back.
  23. Best range Fender did imo, this is a great price too
  24. I’m the same, voice doesn’t have enough character to do lead vocals but can harmonise and double up well with the lead.
  25. @Rayman I was similar. Virtually all my fave bassists played Precisions - Burnel, Foxton, Matlock, Simenon, Deacon - and for years I tried to get the sound I wanted from various different types/brands of bass. Then I bought a Precision and suddenly there was the sound.
