  1. What are silks actually for????
  2. I work for a bicycle distributor and we're seeing ETA's on basic tyres of quite common sizes going into late 2023/2024 now. Some popular drivetrain parts from Shimano (the market leader and most bikes are reliant on their products to some extent) are looking like they're at least a year away.
  3. How did you get on with it @thisisswanbon? I fancy a Big Muff of some sort.....
  4. Nope they're stainless steel https://www.thomann.de/gb/warwick_red_label_045.htm I've tried the Coban ones a few years back and found the Warwicks last a few extra gigs for me and seem a bit brighter. They don't sound like cheaper strings.
  5. We just got paid for a gig we aren't playing till next Friday in a GK pub. Never had that before (although we haven't dished it out yet in case anyone comes down with Covid beforehand and it gets scratched) 😂
  6. I just bought 10 sets of Warwick Reds from Thomann and they worked out at £7.09 a set. Bargain....
  7. I think this may be DV247 rather than Bax Shop. The UK bit of Bax Shop is in Folkestone.
  8. This ⬆️ If the landlord actually has a look at you then you've won the first battle. I would suggest not playing the same old songs that all his other bands play as well. Pick something a bit unusual but sympathetic to the venue (do some research beforehand) We find that links to some live videos work really well because we have quite a good lighting setup and it looks a bit better than the average pub band visually. And word of mouth from their regular punters is priceless
  9. I have the earlier BB800 and it's the only class D amp that i've ever thought came close to having some real wallop about it. I've tried a few of the usual suspects (Genz Shuttle 9.2, GK Fusion500, Mesa D800, MarkBass EVO1, Darkglass M900, Genzler Magellan800) and moved them all on. But I've had my Quilter for 3 years now and it's staying. Total clean headroom and muscle......
  10. It was the Fishman pickups that had my interest and they're only on the SLS as far as I can tell so the other models are a non starter for me. The only other way to get them is on a Spector (I don't get on with the stretch on the neck with those) or a Cort A4 Ultra which is about the same price as the Schecter. And both the Schecter and Cort will take a huge hit if I buy new and then sell on if I can't get on with them so i'm reluctant to buy new on them. Either nobody bought one or they are so good nobody sells them on as I've never spotted a used one. Don't you just hate itch scratching......
  11. That was back when they were a high end custom brand like ESP. I believe they're mostly made in the Cort factory now so fall into the 'decent mid price import' category.
  12. Massive long shot........ Anyone got one/had experience of one? Online demos look good and I've played one for long enough in a store to realise I might like one
  13. Quilter BB800
  14. I've tried them on a few occasions and they sound like 5 gig old steels from new in my opinion. Every few year I have another go at them and realise they aren't bright enough for my taste.

    Zoom MS-60B

    The tuner is chromatic and easy to see/use. I don't know about the Midi stuff. I used one for years and didn't find that it changed the tone noticeably. The compressor and modulation effects are particularly good. And for stage use I found the ability to set up a clean sound, effect patch, clean sound, different effect, clean sound etc and just tap through them really easy to use. They're a total bargain in my opinion. Recommended.
  16. How much??? Thats giving it away!!!! Great amps….
  17. 😂 i'm the exact opposite. I had to use a cable at the last gig after about 10 years of wireless and it felt very strange!
  18. What didn't you like? The whole wireless experience or was it that particular device?
  19. Lozz bought my Zoom pedal. As expected, lovely bloke and a dead easy transaction/collection. Recommended!
  20. The sunburst one all day long for me. The Nate got close in Forget me Not though. Great choice of songs for the demo and your playing was really good. Well done :-)
  21. NOW SOLD Zoom MS60B multi effect pedal Fab bit of kit with no issues but I'm switching my pedal board around so it's surplus to reqs now. Loads of great effects built in along with a decent tuner so even if you just use it as compressor, chorus and a tuner you're on a winner. Great condition. Velcro on the bottom. Pretty sure I have the box in my cupboard of doom somewhere too. Here's the official blurb.....https://zoomcorp.com/en/gb/multi-effects/multistomp-pedals/ms-60b/ £60 posted within the UK or £55 if you want to collect it. Thanks for looking
  22. May be a dodgy lead or speaker cable. Check the easy stuff first..... Re the hiss - check the bright button isn't engaged The video reviews look pretty good and no one mentions that it's underpowered - I reckon its a lead or a faulty amp.
  23. Murray bought a strap from me. Excellent comms and speedy transaction - highly recommended :-)
  24. You'll be needing a strap for that then 😉
