  1. With a £300 budget you really do have to go second hand. I personally have never had a bad experience buying used off Basschat.
  2. Used the SWR on Saturday night and it didn't disappoint. Lovely tone and sat well in the mix. Only used 1 channel. It has a power amp for each side (stereo) or you can bridge it for full power. Will try it that way next time because it was pushing the single channel a bit hard at times. Added bonus; I picked up an unused Gear 4 Music rack bag for it for £30 on Saturday morning. I'm not usually that lucky.
  3. I dislike just about everything done by Oasis. Tragically, I have to play loads of it since the punters, for God only knows what reason, seem to love all of it! Peasants!
  4. 2U shallow rack case by Protex. 19" wide x 14.5" deep. Ends are 3" deep. Never been used. Has all fixing screws. Will post at cost.
  5. Boeing To California- Led Zeppelin
  6. Similarly Mick Hucknell who started out singing about being skint but quite quickly disappeared up his own backside, becoming a gastro snob living next to an Italian lake if I remember correctly.
  7. Sweet Home Alabama. Monotonous drivel for toothless, dungaree wearing rednecks. I seriously considered playing the first round of it into a looper and then going for a few pints for the next half hour when I used to have to play it at every gig. Thankfully it's now been binned from the setlist for a good while.
  8. No valves in these. Enclosure just makes it look more 'old school' but light as a feather.
  9. I'm near Ely, Cambs. Happy to drive a sensible distance if you prefer.
  10. Tecamp Black Jag 500. Like a Puma but with loads more whistles and bells. Onboard compressor with 'soft' or 'hard' settings. 4 band EQ with Bass and Treble 'Boost'. Lo and Hi Mids can be centred to suit. 'Taste' and 'Rock' can be dialled in to further enhance your sound. D.I. Out on the front panel. Tecamp padded cover. Weighs around 7kg. Clean amp with no knocks or dings. Sounds superb and very loud. Easily keeps up with loud drummer and very noisy guitarist! The only reason it's for sale is that I just bought a 'bucket list' amp that became available, otherwise this would be a keeper.
  11. 2U Shallow rack case. 19" wide, 14.5" deep (centre section is 8.5" deep). Carry handles on both ends. Hard plastic and aluminium construction. Unused. Fixing screws included. Price is £40. Will post at cost or collection near Ely, Cambs.
  12. Dinner With Gershwin - Donna Summer
  13. Just bagged an SWR SM500. Wanted something as backup to my Eden WT800 with the same type of sound but not as bulky or heavy. Had a little go with it and it sounds lovely. Has the same smooth power delivery as the Eden and also very versatile EQ section which is what I was after and also has plenty of grunt. Will most likely give it a runout at the weekend since we have a gig. Now I have to shift something out, probably my Tecamp Black Jag which is another cracking amp.
  14. If you put the compressor in front it takes out the dynamics that the envelope filter reacts to.
  15. I've always had the DI last in the chain as a backup in case the amp fails. Have never had to use it once mind you.
  16. Couldn't agree more. Bass is a support instrument for me but bass solos generally remind me of overacting and attention seeking that most people didn't come along to see. A good, solid groove is where it's at for me. Back on topic - Jeff Berlin. I find his personality way too intense and abrasive. It's as if he's only interested in people who have nothing else in their lives other than bass guitar. I can admire people's skills, dexterity, dedication etc but still not have any connection.
  17. Oui Are Detective - The Thompson Twins
