  1. 29 Palms - Robert Plant
  2. Oscillate Wildly - Die Schmitts
  3. Disco Boy - FZ
  4. Daddy Brother Lover Little Boy - Mr Big
  5. Time Bomb - Rancid
  6. WAAAAYYYY ahead of you there!
  7. Oc2 ->coloursound bass fuzz -> Lovetone meatball -> Butler tube drive -> EHX Small clone and Small stone. That’s pretty much my current ‘meat and potatoes’ layout., but currently it’s got a couple of other bits thrown in just for fun. Being able to build effects pedals has its advantages!
  8. Room a thousand years wide - Soundgarden
  9. Based on those numbers, yes. 😄
  10. Better by you, better than me - Judas Priest
  11. Prince was a musical genius. It’s a term that gets thrown around a lot, especially when someone dies, but Prince definitely was.
  12. Bring down the birds - herbie Hancock chameleon - herbie Hancock are two that I’d consider essential.
  13. It sucks when you have a frustrating night like that, I hope you get a better experience next time around.
  14. Pretty good. Played at an open mic/Jam night as part of the house band. Busked my way through a good few songs that I've not played before, but with musicians that I knew, so it wasn't as bad as it could have been. Didn't take an amp, so was reliant on the house PA; I reckon next time I'll take a feed from the mixer into a set of IEMs.

    DIY Effects

    It's not as bad as you think - get the right solder (rosin core) and a clean iron set to the right temperature and once you've got one done the ret should follow suit.
  16. I thought I didn’t care what my instruments look like until I realise my main two are almost identical, so I think I have a type. Condition is less important to me than how it plays and feels. All of my kit is old and battered but I know it quite literally inside out and know exactly how it will respond to my sausage fingers, so it has that going for it.
  17. Low Life in High Places - Thünder
  18. Wuthering Heights - Kate Bush
  19. Nice tidy example of a great machine. The RAM is indeed updatable and doesn't require any specialist tools or indeed any experience, just a small enough screwdriver to get the base plate off. This model will take 16GB, but the BIG improvement to these machines is installing a solid state dive, which you've already done. I have an identical machine on my lap right now!
  20. Back in the 90s I played with some bands that were almost exclusively keyboard and drums - 5 string basses made it MUCH easier to play in 'flat keys' that they favoured.
  21. Isn’t there a triumvirate pedal that has 3 frequency bands of distortion, or was it a dream I had?
  22. The idiot bastard son - Zappa
  23. Looking for the whales - AHA!!
