  1. In Les’ defence, they’re playing a Rush album from start to finish! 😄
  2. Also something to factor in is the inclusion of GarageBand with every Mac OS. granted, it’s fairly basic and idiosyncratic, but if you don’t need to factor in buying extra software or licensing then you’ve got a couple of hundred extra to spend on a higher spec machine.
  3. Ms Ellis-Bextor’s cover of ‘take me home’. Luvverly
  4. I'd second the Mac option. Boatyard (I think it's called) do refurnished Apple stuff with warranties, so they might be worth a look.
  5. Too drunk to copulate - Dead Kennedys
  6. Or 2 2x10”s and stack them vertically 😉
  7. dunno, but as far as necks go, I reckon it might be a short-scale...
  8. Seriously, I get the idea of a national anthem, and think they are generally. good idea, but the British one isn't about the nation, it's about perpetuating the idea of hereditary privilege, and 'keeping us all in our place'. I suggest an instrumental is the way forward on this - none of those pesky forelock-tugging or jingoistic words to get in the way of a good melody. Can we have something with a bit more life in it though, 3/2 is a rubbish time signature.
  9. I wouldn't know; all the Dingles I've seen have most certainly (and without exception) been on the wrong side of the law.
  10. Yeah, like if you ordered a Lamb of God album from wish.com
  11. Looks like it’s on the floor.
  12. There's Simon Le Bon, Gary Numan, Bananarama, Brian Ferry etc... obviously part of a TV show.
  13. Whenever I’ve used Roto flats I drop 0.005” per string and the tension is pretty much the same as rounds.

    It's not the volts that get yer, but the amps!! EDIT: as a tube preamp I'll assume that B+ is a couple of hundred Vdc, so look out for those too!

    I'm curious as to how this sounds, keep us posted please.
  16. I've got the same strings on my P and they're perfect for taming the mid boost of a P pickup - much smoother output tone.
  17. multi-tracking to the system disk is always risky - could be that it's just bottle-necked on the way in. I used to get this when my buffers were set too low, if you don't need to monitor stuff with low latency whilst recording (like you do when overdubbing etc...) then ramp your buffer up - this is why I like to record bands 'live', they listen to each other in the room, instead of an audio interface.
  18. 1982’s on the phone for you, says you’re wrong.
  19. Low current drain and high fidelity is difficult to achieve!
