Why does it need to be a competition? They're both great. SR was backing Corey Henry a while back - absolutely fantastic: I really want to know how he keeps the beanie perched on the back of his head in the first song! If I tried that it would ping off somewhere never to be seen again!

I think this is from the tour when I saw them:

I remember I saw him when the Headhunters went on tour to promote ‘Return of the Headhunters’. He was a huge man, the bass balanced across his, um, belly, and he walked up to the mic and said “I guess I got a little more funk on me than the last time I was here”, patted his belly and went on to absolutely tear the house down - absolutely amazing. So funky.

Class tribute to him by Christian McBride:

I bought the Mark Stand but it hasn't been out of its bag - instead I picked one of these up: https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/braeda-laptop-support-black-60150176/ Fits perfectly, and tilts it at just the right angle. You lose any floor coupling, but works well if you're on top of your amp. I've even used it on top of the extension cab.

Just to say, I've never felt overfaced with the single CMD121P, but I've used it with the extension cab for louder gigs and its easily held its own against overdrive valve amps etc.

I looked at the Swissonic router too - but as DaytonaRik says, it's ruddy expensive! I have ended up taping an old Netgear router to the bottom of the rack case, which seems to work fine. Not pretty though! If I had the time/money/inclination and I was doing it over again, I think I'd probably get a 1U sliding rack draw and mount the router to that so it can slide out when in use. However, that would compromise siting it on stage - at the moment, because it's all contained within the rack footprint you can put it wherever - I did a gig where someone else had a similar setup and he chucked his under the raised stage at the side, and lying on its side!

IME you get out of the MB what you put in - so it's a 'cleaner' amp. If you're happy using drive/preamp pedals for your sound if you want grit, then it'll be fine. The VLE is great - turn it full up for a motown style sound, and wind it back for a cleaner sound.

Well, nothing, so I've opened an unpaid buyer case, and as soon as that is concluded it''ll be relisted. Hopefully another £1 final value offer comes along shortly, otherwise this will be a very expensive annoyance. What a complete and utter waste of my time.

Oh, and definitely marked as collect only so no confusion there.

Yep - got his full address, it’s a Newport postcode, so prob 30-40 miles or so - feasible, but I don’t know what the rules are for crossing from Wales to England and vice versa ATM are though.

Agreed. Unless the seller says cash, or whatever, I pay straightaway.

It was reasonable - some poor feedback but mainly as a seller, as a buyer all 100%.

Fair enough, but if that’s the case, just tell me. It’s the total lack of any comms that’s annoying.

Already set. No idea what this chap’s issue is - still nothing. I wouldn’t mind but he was the one who made the offer!

Thanks!

From memory, lowpass, res+, and gain about half-way, and buffered (not tru) bypass, though I'll have a check.

Grr. He made the flaming offer too! And from his username he's into this sort of thing, so it's not some rando spammer/scammer. Boils my fosters, so it does.

Freebie! Awesome. Good spot. I am well jeal.
