Looks like I dodged a bullet not bidding on these. I have a TE 2X10 in the collection already so a second 1 10 isn't strictly speaking necessary. But hey, who's counting?
None of this amounts to anything vis a vis the band, we're all good, it's just a general gripe when musicians start letting amateurs have a say in the sound.
Especially my sound!
No pa support. 4 piece band so me vocals and guitar stood on the dance floor for soundcheck. All happy with the sound. Kit not mic'd.
Guitarist father runs up to the stage 3 songs in saying someone at the back of the room thinks the bass is too loud.
The band all agree I should turn down
"but we soundchecked and you were happy" I protest
I turn down to keep the peace.
Next song he comes back I assume to say all is now well. But no! Still too loud. I become agitated (tired and a bit of flu still hanging around
"don't throw your toys around because you've been told to turn down" is the advice from my band mates.
I say the serenity prayer repeatedly at half time.
So, a little less than their lowest estimate a fair bit less than their highest and no having to post the amp.
I'm into this repair! Who did you contact?
Of course this thread has in its title the suggestion that I've found the perfect rig and my search is over.
Didn't stop this happening last night though did it?
I have a couple of PJ basses and I think I'd prefer them to be straight up P Basses.
One's a Red Squier in the £200 area the other a black 7ender in the region of £525.
Not home now so no pics yet but in theory anyone interested?
If so P me to the M
Ah, 😍 memories of my first Trace.
I'm with @TheGreek do not need, can't not want.
Edit: just found Nantwich on a map. 6 hour round trip puts me out of the running.
All 3 of us went out for the soundcheck. The bass was perfectly balanced with the kit.
The thing which irritated me was the amateurish reaction of the band. You do not change something on the say so of one muggle, or so I thought
Anyway it's done now.
Being told to turn down. Because someone in the audience said the bass was too loud.
If we listen to every individual member of the audience for their sound preferences we'd just as well pack up.
Currently in the middle of a gig where no one can hear me.
