No my son, it is you who will be flattened when we point them at each other. Redhill lies directly between Harrow & Newhaven & I'll have a kW going through a Big One soon enough. Hehe.

Hartke LH-500 & Barefaced Compact. Job done.

I didn't miss a couple of others though - the one about opinions [DEBATING & FREE SPEECH, paragraphs 1, 2 & 3], the one about typing in CAPS [OTHER HINTS & TIPS, point 2], for example. You however, may have.

Where's your mate gone tBBC?

Good job. Sticky?

[quote name='clauster' post='495819' date='May 23 2009, 09:46 AM']Talk about "all the gear - no idea" [/quote] That's me. Lets face it, the StroboRack is the best tuner 'cos you can set it to say rude words while you are playing. I know where my next 300 quid is going.

TU-2 does me, the guits use these and we have never had a problem in 20 years. Can't justify a new tuner unless it breaks and that's not something I tend to associate with Boss. Strange though, I can justify a new everything else without it breaking.

Shirts, Platfoam - what next?

Nice colour. I was one click away from something very simliar until the Spector came up. Would look good with the crest on it somewhere.

Good work chap. I have a Ruby in mine [cheers Mert ] - high gain, flat response, less top than the stock Sovtek - lovely.

[quote name='stingrayfan' post='493111' date='May 20 2009, 11:23 AM']Used to play Slinkies, now play Hartkes. £6 a set and better IMO.[/quote] Hmmm, £6? Might have a punt next time. Shame that A's a 0.080 though. The one thing I'm not with the Ox on. EDIT: General question - why 45, 65, [b]80[/b], 105 and not [b]85[/b]? Mebbe I should give it a go, I do a lot of A-string chugging though.

[quote name='teej' post='492663' date='May 19 2009, 08:35 PM']There seems to be, in this thread and others, an under-current of misunderstanding concerning the exact nature of a career in music. I'm paying my mortgage and supporting my kids making music, maybe only having to work 2 days a week to do so. Spare time spent on the allotment growing organic food, reading and learning about stuff that interests me, playing with my kids. The standard of my playing is improving year on year, as are my earnings. I'm not rich, you've never heard of me, but I think I'm successful. A couple of gigs and a day busking is all I need to live pretty comfortably: we had home-made sushi for lunch, a chilli made with steak for dinner, and once the kids have gone to bed we'll be mixing mojitos and chilling out. And I'm looking forward to going back to work on Saturday. [/quote] You Sir, are the man and respect to you [as I believe the young-'uns might say]. I suspect any of us would love to do this, I know I would.

'ello mate, welcome. Plus de Frenchies ici. Probably. Good choice in music, nice gear.

[quote name='EBS_freak' post='493010' date='May 20 2009, 09:48 AM']This world is full of retards.[/quote] Ain't that the cotton pickin' truth, boi.

Been using Hybrid nickel & SS Slinkys on and off for 20-odd years on every bass I've owned - I always come back to them and won't be moving away again. Recently tried some Lo-Riders that lasted half a gig before going off and some cheapy nickel Rotos that were ok, but weren't Slinkys. Better than those piece-of-sh*t-took-6-weeks-to-arrive-and-lasted-20-minutes DR's though.

Received a BassBalls of Chris yesterday. Well, I think it's a BassBalls, my 18 month old daughter & I spent about an hour last last night failing to get into a very well packed parcel Cheers mate!

[quote name='thedontcarebear' post='492262' date='May 19 2009, 12:18 PM']I thought the para was for guitars and bass for bass?[/quote] The Para was originally called the Acoustic DI, it's the pedal version of the RPM rack pre. Best SansAmp I've used for bass - not an EBS or DHA though <Glad you still like it Paulo, see you're playing in Eastbourne, I'll try to get over.>

Ask him if he's got any books. Elom's book is AWOL.
