  1. But that's their USP the silly names, the matching cases Anyway your point is the point. I am not splashing out hundreds of pounds I don't have to just try something. I don't pride myself on the labels on anything I own and would rather buy five 60 quid pedal than one with a name on it. I have no idea if these pedals are remotely similar to the originals and I'll never know because I won't be buying the originals any time soon. If my choice of pedal upsets you then I'm truly sorry. I never buy an effect pedal with the aim of hurting someone's feelings.
  2. I'm enjoying it thoroughly. I haven't the cash to go mad buying up preamps at present. However, I am scouring the second hand market and there's an Eden I have my eye on. Next week I should take delivery of an Aguilar clone made by Demon FX , but so far the surprise package has been the Behringer Sansamp clone!
  3. Affordaboard are taking pre orders for this now. Due in next week.
  4. I played the Digbeth amp at the SW Bass Bash and it sounds really really good. That vertically designed cab looks great too
  5. Bristol Bandeoke, Blue Lagoon. It was of course the 31st so lots of crazy costumes and comic turns. Elvis was particularly hilarious. Me and the BL....
  6. I think someone has a wanted ad for a Baseballs.
  7. I've always thought Basschat was full of opinionated, selfish, ignorant, boorish people who I'd cross a busy motorway to avoid. However my opinion of you all has improved slightly. Bump.
  8. Do it if you can. Stacked vertically they have a small footprint but the height really helps you hear yourself.
  9. Next gig, this is coming with me. Lightweight cabs, heavy weight stereo head. Let's make some noise.
  10. The curve ball to which I referred was in fact my wife handing me my dinner pail and sending me out into the world alone. So your intuition serves you well. I am indeed no longer married. And much, much happier for it.
  11. Last night I used the Behringer AD-I as recommended on this very forum. Better. Better than the BD-I, which itself sounded fantastic. This is more flexible, and more brown. Mmmm, brown notes.
  12. Rewind to my life ten years ago and I had accepted that my gigging life was over. I hadn't been in a band for ages, had no contacts, failed to find anyone or anything I could join with. Time to accept that part of my life was over. Life threw me a curve ball, everything turned upside down. Without boring you with the details I scored a dep gig. From that everything snowballed and now I gig between two and four times a week every week. You simply never know.
  13. Monthly Bandeoke residency on Sunday night. Desperately quiet. I wonder they keep booking us. We have a weekly residency elsewhere on Sundays so end up sending a different crew to cover it when the dates clash. Hoping we can move the night for the monthly one. Thoroughly enjoyed playing though, some fun improvisations and more songs added to the repertoire.
  14. Just received my ADI-21. Quick blast through the controls and it's a sweet pedal. The sweepable mids are worth the entrance fee on their own! Great recommendation, thank you
  15. For anyone interested here is the board
  16. That's my Russian board complete. Unless the sanctions end and I can buy a longer one. Which I would do if they produced an octave pedal. For those not familiar, the board has all the power and audio connections built in. Also bolts to attach the pedals. So it's compact, tidy, and just really neat. I love innovative ideas, and this one is perfectly conceived and executed. And their pedal range includes bass specific designs. However I may have exhausted what was left of their UK stock, so good luck finding them 😬
  17. Yeah and you would have taken the money I've been saving for my MOT and car insurance. Without hesitation...
  18. What @MichaelDean said. It sounds like a Thunderbird but in a smaller, lighter package
  19. Busy Bandeoke in Bristol last night.
  20. Hey Kate, we all missed you at the Bass Bash. Thank goodness I didn't get to play this little beauty though. You'd have been taking my money again 😂
  21. Learning songs for upcoming rehearsals and this is on the list. I know all the others but hadn't heard this before. Unashamedly derivative of Robert Nesta, but a nice tune nonetheless
