  1. tis a sad tale of events and it'll be awful if cardiff loses yet another venue. Great venue even if I have been to only two gigs there since its opened. (efterklang the other week and King Creosote in may). Both were fantastic! Fingers crossed I'll get to see Mabon there next week as well.
  2. I had a similar noise coming out of bass once- turns out it was because I had my mobile phone in my pocket
  3. Where does this get all of these guitars from? Does he advertise specifically? I can imagine it goes something like this- Need Cash? Routed your vintage guitars with a spoon and a metal comb? Painted it 80's style with your own bare hands? Turned that lovely Jazz Bass into a cut and shut job? Don't worry, I won't tell!!!- all guitars picked up discreetly and sold from a secret location in Germany...
  4. I have a copy on cd that accompanied the Bowie Beeb sessions, sort of a bonus cd.
  5. Ooh! Im up for this, it'd be great to get some advice on setups etc. Im not sure if I'll have much in the way amp equipment by then (selling the SWR stuff, will only have my Laney combo) I can bring a Prose Bass fretless (just arrived today) and maybe an old mexican Jazz bass if needs be
  6. [quote]Ive got one of the old F*nder headstock Texas Standard models & it blows away any Strat I've ever played. An absolutely fantastic guitar, especially as I only paid £179.00 for it in my local Cash Converters![/quote] Bargainous! my mates just paid quite a bit more for one in cardiff as well. He's got three Blade guitars and swears by them, in fact I really like them too. Ive never played a blade bass but Im sure they're just as nice
  7. Hey, I really want this and have the money now! how would you take payment and I see its unlined- where exactly do you fret on the neck for the notes? (if that makes sense!!!)
  8. oh dear, just went on your page and it said Your Security.. Get Down hacked by latin team????
  9. I bought a banjo a couple of months ago from the Chris Bryant shop on the corner. I cant say they had much in the way of bass stock but I was really happy with the service in there. didnt feel pressured at all, was welcomed to try whatever I fancied and had a pretty good deal on the banjo with hardcase... I found Wunjos to be quite welcoming but the other shops were awful. When I was younger I always fancied working in a guitar shop- thank God I didn't as I bet I'd end up like one of those cynical grumpy b*ggers. Their hearts must sink when they hear some songs for the umpteenth time!
  10. I had a load of t shirts done through Swansea prison. apparrently there's a lot of small businesses running out of prison but they are not allowed to advertise.
  11. was this the dude that was also known as mr tiles?
  12. bump with lowered price for head
  13. apologies for delays- no excuses really- Ive been storing the amp at my old flat. here's some more pics- you can see a bit where the paint has come off the head a little bit and underneath where the cab material has been dragged a bit due to general wear and tear
  14. the chapter carpark reopened about 3 weeks ago- I think you are probably right about noise also- they are trying to extend licensing as well so probably would prefer to not P*ss off the neighbourhood- still, you can only ask I guess (1 bonus is they do have the best selection of german beers ever !) another option maybe is the musicbox rehearsal studios off penarth road??? that would I guess cost though and you might get a bit of cabin fever inside! nice place and they have a selection of orange amps- mmm [url="http://www.musicboxstudios.co.uk/"]http://www.musicboxstudios.co.uk/[/url]
  15. I love chapter (it helps my gf works there also)... I can find out but my only concern for the place is that a.) its being refurbished with an opening at some point this autumn. b.) its an old school so its a bit echoe-y what with the big rooms and lots of shiny surfaces!
  16. It would make a great coffee table type book!
  17. weren't the living end a punk band? From australia, I vaguely remember the bassist playing a chequered upright
  18. I always get him mixed up with Jah wobble...
  19. [quote]Let me know if the buyer for your bass falls through[/quote] ditto!
  20. I shall take some this weekend!
  21. oops, replied!!!
  22. Pah! there's something sly and underhanded about emails... its like getting dumped by text message. gutless! All the best and keep on keeping on.
  23. I cant say it sounds anything like a cranked up overdriven ampeg and Im not sure what exactly a Gallien or Trace sound like. I have been told its great for Jazz though! I found it loud enough when I gigged with it... I played in a kind of space rock band with it and it did me proud. for me it was albout the clean and warm loud sound. I can't say I've ever really played with the controls and tried getting that kind of rocky sound. Someone else may be a better judge of its good for rock I let a friend do two gigs with it who plays in a hardcore/ metal band - he liked it but wanted an ampeg sound so went out out and bought the ampeg whole kit along with an 8x10 cab Here's a link to some stuff I use to play and it suited it fine.
