  1. Sorted. Saw Jim play a good few times, always impressive.
  2. Various health problems have meant that I haven't got involved with lifting heavy kit during the load in and break down, over the last few years. Given that I've spent a fair bit of money getting good quality lightweight kit for myself, it would be a bit daft to then go lifting everyone else's heavy gear. So I sort my own stuff and then concentrate on wrapping cables and lighter duties.
  3. It's not really a showcase for bands. The format is more a mix of players from a number of local bands, putting together ad hoc bands for the occasion, no rehearsals, just a set list (which more often than not, gets forgotten on the day) announced a few days before hand. Happy to let you know when the next one is though. It's a good place to meet the local musicians, introduce yourself and put yourself forward. I know the next one will probably be July, when we will be raising money once again, for Great Ormond St Hospital.
  4. I like the look of just about all of them, guitars and basses.
  5. The first generation ones had a slightly larger cabinet and so weighed a couple of kilos more.
  6. I love the look of all three 😀👍
  7. Thanks for that Bridgehouse, very true words. I was after a 63, that has now sold
  8. Not ringing any bells, do you know which covers band? If it's one I get to see, then I'll be sure to say hello to him.
  9. Will leave you to moderate this one 😄
  10. The sound was the reason that I added it, never found the combo on its own, lacking in volume.🙂
  11. As always, a quality review Mr. discreet. You don't need the Trace extension cab but I can tell you, it does sound even more awesome with one. A Trace 2 x10" added to that combo is a very pleasing combination.
  12. It looks great and if it saves your hands some stress and strain, then that's a marvelous thing.
  13. I wasn't gigging last night and was really looking forward to Chic,,actually was thinking of getting tickets but wasn't willing to shell out well over,three hundred quid. Have to admit to not actually enjoying it, I know Niles uses top notch musicians but for me the rhythm unit was way too busy and the lead vocal over indulgent. Switched off and went to bed after the fireworks.
  14. I wonder if I know him, there were quite a few drummers there on the night.
  15. Oh my word, I thought the neck shim thread got tedious but then I found this one. I almost wish that being tedious was a rule breaker, then I could lock it and throw it in to cyber space
  16. Good buy that. I had one ,a while back, with a Seymour Duncan Antiquity installed. It sounded very good.
  17. I will add, that I thought the labour charge seemed reasonable.
