Total Watts

  1. And metal/rock sounds aside, it’s serving me well in a pop/rock orchestra. With the speaker and bite switches disengaged it’s can cover a lot of non-metal ground. Then taking the Sansamp element out of the equation with the blend knob fully counterclockwise, it’s a great simple 4 band eq. Despite the manual saying different, all 4 eq’s work this way.
  2. Maybe it takes the brain the size of a small planet to get it? (Not saying I have one, just the best comeback reference I can muster!!)
  3. I watched this last night - eye opening to see how we all collectively walked into this one. https://www.paramountplus.com/gb/shows/how-music-got-free/
  4. MXR Analog Chorus, or an equally awesome but much cheaper option is the TC Electronic Afterglow. Both have righteous low end and no volume drop.
  5. Thanks Lozz. It’s a headf*ck to be honest. Puts me off seeing live bands again! In the same venue I’ve seen Iron Maiden twice - once with great sound, once with great sound minus the bass. If any band is going to have clearly heard bass it’s Maiden!
  6. In Dublin he played the purple one above for most of the set. On a few drop tuned numbers from ‘Worship Music’ he switched to a traditional Spector - the old NS shape (sorry, don’t know Spector model names). The old NS Spector was the better sounding of the two - in that I could at least hear it. The sub bass on the kick drum - and the fact Charlie B plays a million kick drum beats per song - drowned out any chance of hearing anything Bello played at all. (Grumble grumble - I just don’t get that mixing choice at all, but they’re all at it so it must be me)
  7. GenzBenz was just quality all round. I’m still loving my two Streamliners (600 and 900), my Shuttle 9.2, Shuttle 3.0 combo and Focus 4x10 cab. Happy Happy!! Joy Joy!!!!
  8. Sold some wall hangers to Andy - great communication and swift payment. Happy to do business with again.
  9. My old bass!!!! So cool. Wish I’d held on to it at that price! Good luck with the sale.
  10. That’s great to hear. I’m the market-ish. Always been tempted by the NG Dingwalls, but never had one in my hands. And I’m just a sucker for white basses!
  11. Hey Danny - how’d the Dingwall work out for you on the gig?
  12. In case anyone hasn;t posted this already - well worth the watch.
